Now you know how to do your job safely when the big bosses are around.
That’s just evidence that you knew better and did it anyway.
It’s also a 2x increase in my salary, so I’ll just have to try not to do anything TOO stupid
What’s the best thing you learned and the most useless thing you learned?
I’ll be honest with you, I really didn’t learn anything new. I’ve had this stuff beat into my head for years working construction and maintenance. I just needed the certificate.
I just sat here for several minutes trying to think of SOMETHING and I got nothing. But I am pretty tired also, so 🤷🏻♂️
Do you have any concerns that the new administration could invalidate OSHA requirements?
Not OP, but some of the older guys I work around are excited for the rollback of safety standards. I don’t get it. We are the ones on the ground next to the heavy equipment, interacting with caustic chemicals and high voltage.
We are exactly the people who get hurt when management relaxes safety standards because there is no one to enforce the rules. I’m so tired of being the ‘soft’ millenial that cares about safety. Fuck me for wanting to live a long and happy life I guess.
I understand that the rules are written in blood. Perhaps they are volunteering their blood for the next edition?
I have major concerns about everything the new administration is doing. But I already have jobs lined up, so I’m gonna take em to the bank while I can, and then move to Australia when I get the chance.
Why Australia? Good place to work, or just a better place in general?
Most-likely neither, but I’ve got a friend there
