I worked for a oil field service company. One of the safety men was on drugs and ask for treatment before a random drug test. How can I take that safety man seriously knows he shouldn’t be using. Just say I don’t work for that company no more. Safety guys are hypocrites at times.
@@brianblackstocks6369 you're right. But then again, we're all human with our own weaknesses and demons. Myself, as a leader who has the title of "safety professional" my desire is that we all have a feeling of fulfillment and a sense of accomplishment, and that we all go home to tell our children about the exciting things we've accomplished in our lives. The reason I accept the role of safety is because of the 4 deaths I've had the unfortunate duty of being witness to and investigating in my 30+ years of work experience. I don't know it all, but I know enough to be my brother's keeper. I use my training, knowledge, and experience to look out for others and do it with an attitude that perhaps the will do the same for me. Thanks for commenting 🙂 Your comment makes me want to make a video about what we've talked about.
@@middleclassbubba5876 Hello dear, there are some issues on your Channel. I tried to contact using the Phone number But I Failed. if You have any social media account or WhatsApp number please share that here.
ב''ה, worth a chuckle, but also worth noting that while sort of a consumable item, we all know even comfortable safety lenses often scratch and fogged if looked at funny, while some of the curved designs distort in a way that's terrible if you're already up against astigmatism. Been stuck with the same prescription lenses for almost a decade now and while not cheap, durability is a solved problem for those lens materials and would less disrupt the vision that safety eyewear is supposed to protect. If only all this healthcare spending actually made such readily available for occupational health, but 🤡 world.
You may be correct, however OSHA defers to company policy, and in this case it was company policy for glasses to be worn at all times on company job sites while participating in tasks. Anyway, my objective was/is creating a safety culture. Thanks for commenting 🙂
@@middleclassbubba5876OSHA doesn't defer to company policy. But company policy may 'add to' OSHA laws. When a company does make such a policy, it becomes enforceable by OSHA.
No, As a matter of fact he was held in higher regard, he had always been safety conscious, and he was flourishing in his position. He is a super guy, quiet, conscience, and talented. This was his first experience with a crane and in less than desirable conditions. I think I posted a drone flyover of the project in progress. Best Regards, Scott
I'm the safety manager (somehow I fell into this position, I hate it) these bright individuals put me on a safety card for no hardhat because mine fell off into the acid pit. I guess next time I'll put mine back on acid and all and give the company the medical bill right?? I even had to impute the safety card into the system on myself... wtf!??
I have a question about the chemical spills if the security officer see chemical spills on the floor and his job location what should I do first thing?
Isolate the hazard...warning sign, barricades, whatever. Notify your supervisor and building maintenance. Keep others away from the area until relieved by entity in charge of property arrives.
Hey buddy! I’m the one that told you the story about me getting cut with the demo saw a few months ago. (LinoelRichiesCrackPipe). Well we had another incident. I’m a Hoe Operator now and about 2 months ago I was setting a precast storm manhole (6’x6’) about 12ft deep. I picked it, swung it in the hole for a preset before we cut the last joint of pipe. They got their measurement so I was going to pull the box out, I boomed up and started swinging, as soon as the front edge cleared my top bench the manhole completely fell apart. The base (roughly 1800lbs) rolled back down in the hole and I was left with the 3 walls just hanging on my spreader cables. I started crying before I even looked down in the hole but I know somebody had to be seriously injured or dead. Thank god no one was hurt. Ended up there was one single piece of rebar in that entire structure. Be safe out there fellas, manufacturers are penny pinching and cutting corners to save a buck. That’s the stuff that gets people killed
I've got more s*** in my eyes wearing safety glasses than not never have I seen it cutting wheel explode nor have I had a grinding just come apart on me although the one I'm using now is missing a great great opportunity to do so will it I doubt it I'll burn it up just like I did the one before it 35 years I've been doing this I've seen more people hurt on job sites with all this safety BS tie off I doubt it Slide the ladder down the beam highly likely Walk The Bean even higher it's like this there was 5 people died building the Empire State Building the Twin Towers had 60 people died that's 55 people dead that didn't have to die Empire State Building not one tied off not one go figure
Remember when men where men and just went to work and worked an 8hr day. Now an 8 hr day lucky if you work 5 with all the safety bullshit. If you can't see someone without a hi visit maybe you should find a new career. Or don't drive heavy machinery.
I've learned one thing. If it's union guys unloading my truck on the other end I refuse to take the load. Bout had enough of their safety bullshit. 2 hrs for safety meeting when I could've been unloaded in 15 minutes. Heaven for f...king bid if somebody helps somebody else. Waste of money like the Biden administration
I've had the pleasure of being among the company of men who do work within America's infrastructure, namely union jobs, and I have seen first hand exactly why things are so expensive and time consuming. Reasons? Simple.. literally %75 of the costs go to pay the salary's of men who do absolutely NOTHING. "Warm bodies". Literally paid to do nothing. Useless. Whenever your driving past a construction or work site and you see a group of men standing there doing absolutely nothing, chances are THATS ALL THEY DO EVER. And rest assured they are there holding whatever title they may have, due to laws, rules and regulations passed by lawmakers that have been lobbied by Union reps. It's one big unfunny joke.
I worked at a cefco over nights. My manager asked me to go fill in at another store overnight for a couple of days. The manager at the other store asked me to clean her office on the first night so I was more then happy to do so. Well she left and I get to cleaning her office and I found a meth pipe she had left on her desk with the meth. I called our district manager and informed her about it. So our district manager came in at 4 a.m. already pissed off. And my shift ended at 5 a.m. when the managers are supposed to come in and do a shift change. So our district manager waited in the back to listen to the conversation I had when the manager lady showed up at 6 a.m. I asked her how come she was late? She told me she had some issues in the morning. I said, yeah I'd have issues to if I was using meth. She instantly started cussing me out and that's when our district manager made her presence known and fired that manager on the spot. I proceeded to run that store for about a month until they got a new manager in.
Shoot..we had a safety guy call out a supervisor who was the son of a manager for deliberately walking through Red Zones and the safety guy was fired for calling out the managers son. Supervisors told us to mind our own business with certain people.
I believe I would be willing to loose my job for a clear conscious. I had a team member one time refuse to allow the owner into a regulated zone, ppir guy didn't know he was the owner. The owner left, got an authorized person to escort him into the area. When the guy figured out he kept the owner out her was a little nervous to say the least. The owner was at the next morning PTP/Safety meeting. He called the employee by name, you could hear a pin drop, and the owner thanked the for protecting him and bought him lunch...that set the tone for that project and all future projects, best corporate move I've ever seen...moral, productivity and safety , all took a bump to the positive.
Our safety was a certified cross dresser, and we let him know that we know everytime his fruity ass walk on our site. 9/10, safety guys are a waste of money, put in that position purely by nepotism.
The "Safety Guy" for the company I work for LITERALLY said "I don't know why I'm the Safety Guy, I don't know anything." Like, TF. He's a pretty cool dude though.
