Hazwoper lines
Eh, I just finished my first week of training. Worst work week ever, mostly because learning about safety is not fun, but there were some real gems. Here are some things I learned from the training manual:
"Injuries can result from equipment hitting or running over personnel or impacts from flying objects."
Amazingly understated if I do say so myself.
"Not walking through areas of obvious contamination would reduce the probability of becoming contaminated."
"Persons engulfed in sawdust or grain cannot breathe and become asphyxiated in a very short time."
Gives a whole new meaning to "forbidden by law for use in purposes other than intenteded."
"In an oxygen enriched atmosphere, a person's hair, clothing, and even skin will burn rapidly if ignited."
"If personnel must be located near the drums, place explosion-resistant plastic shields between them and the drums to protect them in case of detonation."
Yes, let me go grab my explosion-resistant plastic shield.
Anorexia is a symptom of lead exposure
Another point of entertainment was the man walking his dog on a 20 food clothes line past my window. I guess life could always be harder.
