What's on the other side? It sounds important

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 85 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I used to put these on broken equipment, intensely fucking annoying job, had my boss cut one off, plug back in the unit, call me into his office to chew me out for DARING to lock out tag out a working unit, and then the fire alarm goes off. Guess what started the fire? I couldn't quit fast enough.

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 39 points 1 month ago (2 children)

There's always some jackass pulling this kind of thing. I've even heard of people cutting off locks for locking out things, including a shit like breaker boxes while a guy was working on wiring. Jackass coworker pulled that, blew the guy who locked it and tagged it right off of his ladder and into the hospital. The boss suggested to the idiot that cut it off that he could either resign immediately or wait until injured coworker came back from the hospital and rehabilitation and deal with him personally. Idiot stick quit.

WHY DID HIS DUMB ASS NOT GET FIRED FOR ATTEMPTING TO ELECTROCUTE A COWORKER?!?!

Seriously, I'm more mad at the company for their policy than the dumbass who tried to fry another employee. The employee is a moron who might hurt someone, the company is negligent and is likely to get multiple employees hurt or killed with that kind of lax policy.

[–] abbadon420@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

What happened to the idiot? Did he stick or did he quit?

[–] Dudewitbow@lemmy.zip 21 points 1 month ago (2 children)

isnt the LOTO procedure to ask the person listed on the tag whats wrong with it before actually trying to use it. Boss ego crazy to completely just ignore the tag without understanding why it was on there in the first place.

[–] lolrightythen@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

At my place of work, we have a switch that has been locked out for over a decade. The dude doesn't even work there anymore. Perhaps isn't alive. It isn't critical, but our LOTO trainings don't cover that possibility.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's actually exactly how it should work. The switch isn't necessary, or someone would have called in an expert to fix it, so it hasn't been fixed and remains locked.

[–] lolrightythen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But what if we wanted to tag it back in?

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Then you need an expert on the equipment. If the person who tagged it out didn't document why, and isn't available to answer questions, then someone needs to do a full diagnostic and maintenance on whatever it is. Really, asking the person who failed to document the reason shouldn't even be considered an option. Memories are unreliable. Anyone with the authority to lock out equipment should be trained on the procedure.

The original person who locked the switch fucked up, but that sort of fuckup is precisely why LOTO procedures exist. Safety regs are written in blood. 500 years ago, some well-meaning technician found some equipment that was broken and put it aside to fix later. One of their colleagues found the equipment, not realizing it was broken, tried to use it and immediately died a gruesome death.

Safety is diametric to convenience. Somebody cuts a corner somewhere, and the safest thing to do is overreact.

[–] lolrightythen@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Gotcha, i have plenty of training in LOTO. Was merely commenting about something being locked out, and then the operator having moved on while leaving it locked out. I found it amusing.

The switch is actually operable, just locked out bc we no longer use the gas heaters they control.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Oh yeah. If he wasn't the guy with the hiring and firing job he would have been walked off that day. He's easily the worst boss I ever had. Started planning my escape after that. The company had a real problem with sunk cost fallacy. ''Well we invested so much in him'' was the adittude.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Oh yeah, the other side is just the info on who put the tag in, and identifying the equipment so people don't rotate the same tags to other equipment.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

" what the fuck you looking at this side for? Its Fucked mate, fucked!"

[–] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago

"the fuck you still looking at the tag for, look at the fucking equipment you cunt, obviously fucked"

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's clearly the other side of the cock, obviously.

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I think that's just "look" but written badly

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Oof, that 'doctor' handwriting...

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

When you gonna sign 20 things a day your style gets real poetic.

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The first letter has an angled instead of curved bend.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And the third letter was open..

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Look, we don't question the doctor's orders around here.. 😂🤣

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

Aussie, its 100% “cock”

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

Probably a drawing of a middle finger

[–] Zoidsberg@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Usually contact info for the person who tagged it.

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

An incredibly well detailed cock and balls. The vein work is exquisite
