We conceived a way to use my mother as a porn mule


I used to develop safety and training packages for the mining industry. Over the 5-7 years I did it, holy cow did i get a lot of people caught out for OSHA bullshit. Now my task was to make sure whatever was filmed/photographed was in line with safety practices as the footage was usually sent up to corporate then out to advertising agencies - no one would want a dangerous task in the background making it to TV.

There's waaaay to many instances to post here, but my favorite was a truck driver.

The State safety manager for the mining company, my crew and I were arriving at an area that required a separate sign on due to construction in the area. Now there are a number of forms you need to read to know where it's safe to drive LVs, where and when cranes are lifting and numerous other dangers. This takes roughly 10 minutes to read through, assess the risks and sign off on it.

As we were reading that documentation, a truck driver slammed past us, quickly signed his name on the board, then proceeded to sit on the back of his fuel truck and light a cigarette.... The retaliation was swift. The driver was fired, the contracting company was taken off the construction (brand new mine - so big bucks for a fuel company).

The next day a crane company was also marched offsite for lifting loads over people working on a workshop roof.

This is very true. The first time I drove a forklift, I got my rear end handed to me when I had the forks too high. Staplerfahrer Klaus is probably the best training video of all time.

My un-asked advise follows:

Forks as low as possible.
Sound your horn when crossing a blind entrance or any time you go between rows.
Operate in reverse whenever possible (you need visibility when you have a skid on)
If you have a cage, wear your seat belt and brace if you tip. If you don't have a cage, never wear your seat belt and make sure to jump.
Know where you are and your load limits. You can tip if you're heavy and high.
Never, ever, ever leave a knife or any detritus on top of a skid.
Slow the gently caress down. You're not trying to beat any speed records and tipping a pallet makes everything worse.
Plug if you can. Avoid using the brakes. Plugging saves you time on the charger if it's electric and the stop is smoother.
Tip back to secure the load as long as it's not unstable..
Look at the pallets before you lift the skid. Sometimes they are so bad that they come apart. Especially the chipboard ones. If they do, pick them up, bash out all the supports, put a good pallet upside-down underneath it, set it down in the cutouts, and then pick it up again the right way.
If your vendor loads using slip sheets, curse them and then get your biggest guys to help with the lifting and loading.

I wasn't commenting on the goodness of requiring fume hoods for soldering, only that it is indeed required.
I used to teach Electrical Engineering classes at a local state university campus. We have had to eliminate all soldering from classes/labs because getting fume hoods was impractical/too expensive.

I can't find anything supporting this as a requirement. There are requirements for maximum allowable concentrations of things like lead, toxic fumes, etc., and you might need to have a fume hood or other ventilation to keep the concentrations below that limit, but I don't believe fume hoods are a requirement.

I mean, I used to solder outdoors all the time, a fume hood requirement would have been impossible to meet.

Now that you mention it, I don't know if it is an OSHA requirement. Every place I've worked for in the past ten years made it mandatory to have some active ventilation directly at the soldering station. Those employers have been private industry, a state school, and a government contractor-ran National Laboratory.

At the state school, I saw the transition from "safety googles only" to "we don't have fume hoods, no more soldering" happen around 2010.

Really? Wow. 10 years ago I (and a class of 20 others) did soldering in high school in a normal sized classroom with no ventilation beyond the school AC. Every other day for a month class would start, kids grabbed their irons and solder (but no goggles) and spend almost an hour nonstop soldering. Maybe lead free solder doesn't have a ventilation requirement?

Also never let an inspector tour a plant by himself, always gotta have someone glad handing the whole way.. Gotta stroke his ego, make sure his coffee is dosed, you know, the normal stuff. If the plant can't afford to take a guy off the line to walk the inspector that comes around a few times a year maybe they don't have the care to actually keep their men safe? Probably left him in the break room scrambling to fix other stuff.

Also maybe the inspector is just a dick and looking to revenue generate. I dunno, wasnt there.

At university ten years ago, we didn't have vent hoods or goggles. Just us and the irons.

Been doing copper pipe soldering (with a torch) off and on for the last year. I wear my goggles if other people are doing it above me, but if it's just me then gently caress no.

Oh goodie! We had energy and mines inspectors today at one of our company sites. They are currently seizing documents illegally. Why illegally? They can arrive unannounced and be on site for 15 minutes before being asked to leave. After that they need to make an appointment. So they just ignored the request to leave.

Tomorrow I will have some information about the fallout of a) why they are seizing documents, b) without a warrant c) why no staff stopped them and d) the result of the police call about illegal trespass, theft etc.

Lucky for me I have nothing to do with that part of the company!

It's not illegal if it's part of a permit or license to operate. Part of being an employer.

I can't argue with or against you on that - been a while since I was up on it, just taking managers word for it. Either way its OSHA scootenfruity. The bosses thinking they are safe and can order inspectors away after 15 minutes (and use that as their way of covering poo poo up) or it's even better the other way.

Your managers seem like the "ARE FREEDUM" types. They are wrong. Laws set up to protect workers from that kind of crap. Bonus points since OSHA rarely comes unless someone dies, complains, or a bunch of dudes hurt themselves badly. They'll check up on previous violators too if they don't play along.

The tripod gets hit, not necessarily the cameraman.

It’s a perfectly steady shot, and then after the hit the camera rocks back and bounces a little. Tripod.
