Didn't this guy learn that lifting with your back is bad?



Lifting with your back or lifting someone by their back? Because I feel like my OSH handbook probably is detailed enough to make the distinction.

Being in ~The Navy~, the concept of a locking device on a tagged component still surprises me. It really floors me that someone would be stupid enough to ignore a tagout when their only purpose is to keep you from breaking poo poo and/or dying.

That said, I recently talked to a civilian who has interviewed with a company in the past year that works on kilovolt systems and had never been exposed to the concept of tagouts or other work controls. Truly terrifying. They wanted him to stand up a LOTO program for their company.

This is the fun, happy kind of OSHA.gif where everyone walks away and nobody ends up in the hospital or the morgue. The Fisher Price of OSHA.

There's a kind of poetry to it. Like, it speaks to me about safety and the plight of the proletariat.

I got caught in a flash flood once when I was a kid. That's a terrible, terrible way to spend your day.

Buddy of mine posted this on Facebook, had to crop off all the "LOL MEME" bullshit.

This is why we have checklists, guys.

Christ. Some people just do not have it in them to say "nope, gently caress off, I'm not doing that job" do they?

[edit] Barn fires can't melt steel tanks! 90% of material strength lost by the time the tank wall hits 700C leading to structural failure. It plays out that way in all sorts of situations so why are people still so hhnngh.

You mean like this? Am I representing the research properly?

Could someone please post the pic of the bolt that was glowing cherry red because of the electrical current running through it? I want to show someone and words can't do that picture justice.

Hate to be that guy but last time that was posted wasn't the conclusion that the bolt was externally heated (due to the charring around the bolt)?
