When I was a kid, we had a decorative harpoon up on the wall for years. We took it down after redecorating and sold it at a garage sale.

The guys who bought it couldn't fit it in the car, so they drove away exactly like this. I was really hoping they'd go harpoon a minivan or something.

why would you ever let a harpoon out of the family?

The Red Bull flugtag happened over the weekend here, and had to be shut down by the coast guard because of the amount of spectators on the river and the fact that a lot of them were blocking the commercial shipping lane.

The amount of dense people who can't grasp the concept that they were A)blocking a federally controlled shipping lane that the permit did not cover B)told to move out of the way in advance of the ship even coming down the lane. Actually, the big ship is a bully and should have gone down another part of the river and/or waited for the event goers to finish.

not caught up on the thread but I have :words:

today i worked in the engine room of a ship. there were three fires in the space of about eight minutes. welders working on top of us in a recently painted room that hadn't been cleared of oily rags.

first fire: I didn't see, but I saw smoke and was like "wtf is there a fire? impossible, lol!" and yep someone was stomping it out. crisis averted.

second fire: spot welder threw some sparks onto a hoodie, goes up. I grab it, open a door, off the ship into the water. massive VWOOSH flames, not little tiny sparks.

open up the door for ventilation so we don't asphyxiate. I get one of the painters fans pushing fresh air into the (cramped and poorly ventilated) hold.

third fire: sparks into a PLASTIC BUCKET OF PAINT. it's on fire. the welder drops his poo poo, grabs the bucket, runs it outside, throws it into the water. chemical spill!!!!1

at this point im like hmm maybe someone should clean up all these oily rags? so i do that but also get a fire extinguisher and tell everyone ITS OKAY TO USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER YOU DON'T HAVE TO STOMP OUT FIRES!

there's like eight people (our entire department!) working in the room, plus welders. everyone has seen it. the Boss knows. nobody tells the safety officer. i am warned multiple times if I report it, everyone will be written up (and probably docked pay). I'm pretty sure this is illegal.

This all happened saturday morning, so I have until Monday to decide what the hell I'm going to do. as a reward for surviving my first encounter with fire in a goddamn enclosed space, i bought myself some new tool pouches. it didn't feel like enough.

EPILOGUE: the guy whose hoodie that was was extremely bitchy about it. at first i was sympathetic but he wouldn't shut up and now i hate him.

also i'm really pissed that I'm the only one who thinks this was life threatening & a Big Deal

How do you guys not have a fire extinguisher nearby if you're doing hot work? Do you know know if the welders are filing hot work permits with the safety officer? What exactly is it you do? You must be working with some lovely welders if they go into a room with oily rags and still think its safe enough to work.
