We're still hiring. Starting pay is $16hr. (Not bad for Midwest). No experience needed. No diploma or GED needed. Just gotta show up and be breathing air...

Ima start one upping you. I assume you are in private industry, so at least you CAN fire someone.
Government industrial maintenance be like:
AC unit 1 of 3 for our server room. Contactors 1 and 3 wouldn't pull in because safety switch was doing it job. Luckily it failed in some other way before the pressure relief had to do its job. The employee still works here. He makes $30/hr.
edit- *** i think i posted this in here when it happened. Oh well. Ill have plenty more
Because that requires understanding how a contactor works in the first place. The same employee tests for live voltage with a screwdriver and ground, instead of you know with a meter or something. We only have literally a couple hundred flukes laying around here. But who am I to judge.
Either way, 2000F and nobody in the area noticed a thing... Was probably a nice lightshow too.
I bet it looked like an old time flash photograph.
Usually the guy who got the machine stuck will only make it worse. The one in the picture should have stopped way before this point and waited for help and certain supplies. But stupidity and stubborness seem to lay eggs and multiply between certain ears.
Usually it involves 4 or 5 crane mats and shoving them beneath the tracks of the machine with the bucket while moving the tracks to get the machine up on them.
The granulated sulphur caught fire and the people didn't go move the machine as the fire slowly went towards it. They had plenty of time. $280k machine.
sometimes at work, people still put images as the background-image in the css, in a blank div with the width and height of the div set inline to display it.
Last couple of days have been fun. Repairing the upper wing skin of a Boeing 757, crawling inside the wing fuel tanks.
This video shows the conditions inside, only in the wing there isn't even room to sit, so it's crawling and turning in limited space all day while dragging hoses behind you. good times https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giEM...ature=youtu.be
