This might be more of a fun&recreation safety issue than a OSHA thing, but speaking of a single screw coming loose and causing catastrophic failure, I like to know WHO THE gently caress SIGNED OFF ON THIS CONFIGURATION OF ATTACHING A SEAT TO A BICYCLE:  ????? This is my bike. It is a piece of poo poo I got for free. I adjusted the seat like 9 months ago and rode it almost daily. The single bolt holding the seat on went away while I was riding it one fine day about 10 weeks ago. I detected some looseness in the seat and planned on stopping to investigate when I was suddenly airborne and spinning. I had the presence of mind to tuck my head in and rolled. Thought I survived unscathed but my left wrist was kinda destroyed. Here it is when I got the cast removed:  Was a fun pic to share on the FB. It's still swollen, still hurts, hot to the touch, can't use it much, and the pain med RX is goddamn stingy. Typing this post is pretty excruciating. When or if I get back on a bike it's gonna be something safe, like a Huffy. I guess what I'm saying is if this setup is more prevalent these days then the ER rooms will soon be flooded with busted-up bicyclists.

It definitely was a "yellow-warning-light-to-HOLY SHITTTT!!!" experience. If something's wrong, I'd like a little more than 1 second to react.

I think was in the 70's, at Space Mountain when you'd get buckled in with basic seat belts. Someone unbuckled theirs, got his head knocked off which landed in the lap of the person behind him. Lots of screams I'd imagine. Stupid upon both parties here.

The Locator posted:Today's safety lesson - you should actually maintain your bicycle periodically, including checking tension on critical fasteners. Minutes before I was off my bike. In order to extract it from the public bike rack I maneuvered the bike by its saddle to get back on the path. Would've appreciated some discernable looseness then.

The nuke waste is going to be in these big, honkin' lead cases and sealed with proprietary bolts. If they're smart enough to haul that poo poo outta there and fabricate tools to open it, they should be smart enough to second guess this plan. Sorry about your stoning, future whistleblower.

I lived near some huge tanks. You would hardly believe the skull piercing sound that comes from an empty million-gallon steel tank when being sandblasted. Reeeeallllly amplifies an already horrible noise.

I thought that plutonium was so loving toxic, that if you were to touch some you'd be dead before you could lift your finger off it. A guy in a Grateful Dead t shirt told me this so it must be true.

It's not even the "too gay to be useful" funny is what it is and I'd like to review the OSHA guidelines for gayness before proceeding

There's a marker off 77 indicating the site of the wreck of the USS Shenandoah. Dad had me believing for a while that a battleship somehow crashed in the middle of a field in Ohio.

Word to the wise: if your car has electronic tire pressure sensors, do avoid using blingy metallic valve stem caps. Electrolytic corrosion will ensue and your valve stem can snap off at any time

I used to videotape a buttload of depositions involving the EPA versus numerous chemical corporations (and their many defunct shell corporations) about cleaning up their toxic poo poo. Terms like "consent decree" and "underground plume" got tossed about a lot. These slick lawyers would grill some ancient retired executive who would mumble for days and days. It was like he was an aged wizard casting a sleep spell. The main hazard for me was staying awake through that poo poo. I guess the free coffee was an OSHA requirement.

Lime Tonics posted:https://i.imgur.com/Sn0lFK7.gifv What? No frog act to stumble out of the box? Anyways I always request background checks and psychological evaluations of the company's top executives and immediate families when I apply for jobs. Why should I risk my career on a company that could tank due the CEO's gambling addiction?

I tried going down a steep winding hill during a sudden heavy snow during rush hour . Took like 20 minutes to creep 2000 feet, and surgery to remove my fingers from the steering wheel. I stopped at the nearest bar at the bottom of the hill for a drink or 8 to calm my nerves.
