[QUOTE="Mad_Jack, post: 8616525, member: 6750306"] Gawd... The head of Maintenance at my old job spent twenty years doing confined space stuff at one of his previous jobs, and it had made him completely frackin' [I]mental[/I]... He was so paranoid about safety consciousness that you couldn't unjam a damn stapler without him freaking out about it unless you were in the maintenance dept - and even then, he'd want you to put up safety cones and lockout/tagout the damn stapler... :rolleyes: (When I was running the box-making machine, I was literally the only guy in the company who'd been shown by the factory tech guy how to do the dirt-simple preventative maintenance on it, but sometimes I'd have to wait for a whole week until one of the maintenance guys had time to get around to it. And then I'd have to stand there and talk them through it since they didn't know what they were doing. Because, despite me reaching into the machine all day long (it was completely non-functional with the door raised) to reload and unjam it, the guy insisted on having the thing locked out just to hit a handful of lube spots, grease the chain, blow the water out of the air line and blow the dust out of the cpu drawer.
