There's so many great things about this: the text, the fact that the snapping also has a hard hat on, and the arrow that indicates which way you're supposed to look.

[–] bauhaus@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

yet it doesn’t explain how to get the helmet onto the turtle...

[–] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 4 points 1 year ago

Or not to hold it with your fingers well within snapping distance 😄

[–] yumpsuit@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The turtle isn’t allowed on the worksite without certification on donning procedures and a fit test within the past year. Supervisor must examine all documents and seals carefully before entry as, again, the turtle cannot be trusted.

Hatching with a shell is no excuse for neglect of PPE. Disregard for worksite safety guidelines fosters a cult of toxic masculinity that leads to workplace injury.

No high vis though

Fun fact! This is a terrible way to hold a snapping turtle. Their necks are quite long and can reach behind their front legs. If you ever do have to hold a turtle, hold them as far back as possible and pray you can keep it balanced.

Also watch out for piss

Source: it wasn't a snapping turtle but a turtle pissed on me repeatedly whilst relocating it, I was genuinely shocked by the sheer volume of piss that it managed to unleash in total

[–] Skyrkazm@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

My ass boutta use the biggest pair of fucking tongs known to mankind just to hold the Snapping Turtle

[–] MechanicalJester@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Dang that was my immediate reaction too!

Ever tried moving an alligator snapper? It's quite the adrenaline pump...

[–] Tb0n3@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

His hands are way too close to the turtles head. They can REACH.

[–] simple@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

This sounds like an SCP entry

Where's his industry standard turtlin gloves OSHA? I call bullshit this is obvious plant isn't it

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Turtle seems alright he's coming over for dinner tonight.

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Better be pizza!

[–] SharkEatingBreakfast@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is this real? I so dearly want this to be real.

It’s at least plausible. Have you seen the shitpost chops of the US Consumer Product Safety Commission?
