Yay, i made the OP. Here is some stuff i don't know if i've posted in OSHA About 1 in the morning, we're driving on a rollercoaster of a road that's sheer ice. the banking of the turns is really the only thing keeping us going. I was coming in hot, like hot hot. Like, i did 2 more loads than anybody else on that job. coming down the one hill i lost traction, and couldn't get my wheel speed to match the road speed again because it's pitch black and i can't really tell how fast i'm goiing. I know there's a little bit of a ditch beofre the cutline, so eventually i just have to floor it and hop through the ditch onto the cutline. I hopped out, basket chained(chained up without moving the truck), and backed the truck out before anybody even noticed. You can see the dirt where the truck started sinking into the cutline.  Battery bad?  Suspension clunk?   Some serious OSHA. I took this picture because of the cloud if fine sand these dudes were working in. Hard hat, fireproof coveralls, safety glasses, all required. Then they walk around in this cloud of frac sand with no breathing protection, i guess because they think they're tougher than silicosis. you can see the haze of sand floating over the trucks.  Just remember, just because it doesn't hurt right now doesn't mean it's never gonna Powershift fucked around with this message at 19:03 on Nov 23, 2019 |

Zopotantor posted:I like to watch fabrication videos on YouTube—foundrywork, machining, etc. It's fascinating to see how modern factories still use processes like sand molding that are thousands of years old, and have been improved continually. This is amazing. Those are the type of dudes you don't gently caress with down at the pub. not the biggest looking but they can crush you. quote:And then... there's this guy, doing the exact same thing (and quite skillfully!) It's a shame people still have to work like this in a world so wealthy. I wanna see that dude's skeleton.

goatsestretchgoals posted:If you can't secure your load before taking your dump truck onto a public road, I do know what to tell you, and it's rude. The landfill here turns away trucks with unsecured loads which just means the entire load ends up on the side of the of the road instead of a few bags off the top.

That's actually pretty dang cool, and makes me dream of a world with moving cables running every which way and everybody just carries their own stick. cablepunk Your pizza delivery is latched on to the cable with an exact delivery time. delivery cables run from the wealthy areas to the poor, so if the wealthy miss their delivery, somebody else gets to eat it and the rich just order another one. It ends at a pig farm instead of a homeless shelter because cableworld is utopia and there are no homeless. anybody who can't afford a cable is cabled to the central delivery complex and made to run the cables with a stationary bicycle for 12 hours a day without a break and fed soylent from a hamster feeder ~M. Night Shyamalan. e; for power you attach your generator to the cable. for water, a water pump, everything is cables whatever stupid fuckin hole you punch in this scheme, the solution is more cables. e2: you're only able to intercept 1 unclaimed package per day. Do you eat today or get a TV? who knows, cablepunk! Powershift fucked around with this message at 05:42 on Dec 22, 2019 |
