Tales from the papermill: IP Augusta GA. There's a travelling crane used to pickup entire truck load of logs with a big grapple. It travels on rails on the ground in one direction and side to side hanging down under an I beam up top. You are supposed to wear seat belt inside the cab but why would you? The thing can't move faster than walking speed. Well a sudden thunderstorm came up one afternoon and there was a microburst event. It blew the cab of that crane so violently that when it hit the end stop the cab came 1/2 of the track and threw the operator about 90ft down thru the windshield. In the investigation that followed they found that maint had not kept the brakes in working order... why would they, it only goes walking speed right? I think 3 people got fired for that one.

This goes to what I was talking about two weeks ago... it's not enough that something just works... you gotta think about what's gunna happen when something else goes sideways. Don't be the guy that causes one of your brother's wives to get "that call" 6 months from now. THINK about what you are doing.

*picture is exactly this crane.

Here's something fun. You gotta buy 4 gallons of gas just incase the yahoo ahead of you bought E15 a few minutes ago. The hose will be full of E15 and that volume of E(venworse)15 has gotta be diluted. It's gunna end up in your tank whether you buy E15 or not.

indian law student in india is asked why he’s staying in india instead of coming to the US to work.

His answer: ‘I’ve seen the racism on X.’

Keep it up. They’re feeling the heat and choosing to stay home. Make them uncomfortable.

I bet you won't find any jeets driving these trucks
