I was gonna say, I know an onion caption when I see one.
I dont.
If its going to happen let it happen where my family will get a payout from the pricks.
Where I work it’s typically frowned on when you die
Frowned upon but not strictly against the rules?
It’s kind of an unspoken rule that you avoid dying at work, really
So, strictly speaking, I am allowed to?
I mean, ya. Just don’t make it too awkward or someone might call HR.
I think a mod removed Thulean Sneed’s comment?
Yep! Thankfully! No idea why this post turned into a spam magnet.
Notably, the comments being removed from here did not remove them from my notifications… I can not unsee any of that
They did it on multiple posts
What was it?
I blocked them, then took this screenshot
I for one welcome our new alien butt lords
What were they posting?
Mostly Simpsons characters with their ass out while George Floyd sits on top of it
One out of 18, yes
By the modlog, looks like the account was banned.
OSHA loves this worker. Find out why!
I’m sorry, Sir, your arm is gone and you’re bleeding out. Please leave the workplace and die somewhere else.
As an engineer it’s my main professional policy. Its followed shortly by not letting someone else die where I work
In my experience most engineers spend too much time worrying about the wrong modes of death.
Yes Brian it’s critical the coil is centered on the hob, but it weighs 1500 pounds and will go where it wants to so for the love of God do not attempt to stop it from swinging again.
I was helping this dude get a punch press set up, and the crane hadn’t been installed yet, so I was using a forklift with a crane attachment to load the coil. It was, honestly, like my own personal trench run and I loved doing it, but this dude just runs up one time because it was swinging ever so slightly after a turn.
It would take a nearby black hole to move the coil off of center on this hob, it is self centering. That’s the whole point of the hob.
I’m mostly worried about how the forklift drivers can and have hit the broad side of a barn, fire escapes, and making sure nobody ever puts a body part under anything held up by hydraulics. Oh and electricity, but that’s because I once saw a guy in a factory accidentally touch a live multi phase wire.
The first rule of working around forklifts is never trust the load. The second rule of working around forklifts is never trust the driver.
A large distinction between that and refusing to work where you die.
Me too. Unless I’m working that ass, that’s actually my preferred place to die.
He don’t want to feel Not Safe For Work.
Ayyyyy me too
