Today, I did plumbing repair and some minor janitorial services.
For reasons which are still unclear to me, I get paid an embarrassing amount of money for this, and have a "Director" title.
I'm not sure if the people at corporate realize how dirty my jeans and boots usually are.

Today i crawled in a massive pit that i had cleaned the day before (Tyvek suits suck). The pit serves as containment for the 8000 gallon sulfuric acid tank above. While i was down there today, i assessed the state of the four beams that hold up said 8000 gallon 93% sulfuric acid tank.
During the assessment i took a number of pictures. Here is one.
Before i started working here the previous tank had a breach. Polypro only holds up so long to this type of acid. Well when they replaced the tank which involved cutting the roof off and extracting out the top they didn't bother to replace the support legs. Instead they just cut them and shoved some plastic underneath. Odd choice of repair seeing as the containment walls were completely burnt and needed to be fixed. This meant the support had to be removed or at least moved.
Why the legs weren't cut off and replaced with some nice stainless feet is beyond me. Probably a bean counter decision.

hot take counterpoint: I don't mind the blurry image thing and DO appreciate that the page loading doesn't make where I'm looking jump around like a 6 year old on halloween. Seriously it's a sub one second blurry image on my machine and all the other ones load at the same time so I don't have to see multiple blurry images.
I could also accept a transparent blurry image so it's just white (baby blue) space.

I'm also getting VERY tired of scrolling quickly down a page (I have infinite scroll turned off) to get to the new posts only to have the window FREEZE. This happens all the time on my machine yet never happened before and doesn't on any other forum. Often, it happens just as I get to the new posts only to reload back to the top of the page. FIX THIS PLEASE! This update SUCKS.
