Nobody was hurt.
Probably the first thing i would want to hear.
I’d probably crawl under a corner of the pile and them “save” me. Or run.
…except Steve, but he’s a rounding error.
There are actually 0 OSHA incidents every year, but Workplace Incident Georg has 10,000 workplace incidents each day and is an outlier and shouldn’t be counted.
Warehouse manager came in early (it wasn’t me)
Saw the pallets on the floor lookin’ swirly (it wasn’t me)
Thousands worth of product shattered (it wasn’t me)
Said my forklift skills don’t matter (it wasn’t me)
Mr Boombastic
All right
We’re insured, right?
Looks like all pallets of drinks. Those are gonna be heavy and probably max out the weight rating. So my response would be:
“Been overloaded for years” 🤷♂️
4 words. You have to clean it all up now, by hand.
Followed by 2 more words: “I quit”
Zigged. Should’ve zagged.
Zoop! 👉😎👉
We should unionize
- Hey, shit happens
- Could be worse
- Whoops, wrong gear
- Tesla Cyberforklifts, amirite?
“humans make mistakes”
so many goddamn iNvEsTiGaTiOnS I have to write for work boil down to this
if you’re too cheap to engineer out the possibility of human error, don’t come crying to me, a human, about it
Aren’t those done to figure out how things happened so they could minimize the risk of it happening again? Someone made a mistake but what led to the mistake and what could be changed so that either this doesn’t happen or when it does, it’s not as bad.
That’s what workplace investigations are supposed to be, yes. My workplace unfortunately seems more preoccupied with assigning blame to operators and writing increasingly complex rule changes that wouldn’t be necessary if they spent, let me see, literally more than $0 on upgrading our tech…
Very shortsighted of the company to do that.
Yup. Just like every other place I’ve ever worked. Can’t see past quarterly profit increases until everything inevitably crashes and burns
Where I live at least some of the bigger construction companies do talk about safety a lot and can be fairly strict about it. It’s good PR and saves money by having your workers healthy and working and there doesn’t need to be work stoppages due to accidents.
Yeah I miss when not every company was just “qUaRteRlY iNcReAsEs OvEr aLL eLsE” and it wasn’t rare for a business to care about safety, quality, the law, etc.
the company I work at has vestiges of safety programs but repeatedly denies my requests for very simple safety controls from not blocking the fire alarm and exits with inventory, to an oxygen monitor in a room full of compressed gas tanks (some of which are hydrogen. fun!)
yeah i gotta get the fuck outta here.
Damn thing broke
Told ya so
it wasn’t me
Ah, the Shaggy defense
They’re getting away!
Front fell off
This was genuinely the comment I was waiting for.
I love you.
I love you too, if only for this short moment where our gazes align. Soon we will drift apart, and you will forget me. I can only hope I’ve had an impact on you. Goodbye.
I fucking quit
