All seems funny as long as it works right, but it contains a lithium battery and would still get his ass fired in a heartbeat. Oil refineries don’t fuck around.
Friend had a fake cigarette some 25+ years ago and it had orange crumbled foil at the end which looked like it’s glowing under light. No batteries.
Yeah, we had one as a prop in the 90s that had orange foil inside and a mesh in front, so when it moved around the fire looked alive.
And you’d load it with flour and blow through it to make a pretty convincing puff of smoke.
Okay. I once had a real e-vape that looks like a real cigarette. Given that the post appears to be something of a product review, I’m mostly inclined to think it’s a vape.
Amazon doesn’t allow vapes to be sold on their site.
Yeah they do. I bought my fort one on it. They just can’t contain nicotine.
I don’t see any Amazon logo to confirm nor deny if that’s where it came from. I admit though that I don’t do any shopping from Amazon, so I dunno.
Guess I might take your word on it, with a grain of salt though. I have no clue if it might have come from eBay or any of the other online companies… 🤷♂️
It’s very much formatted in the style of Amazon reviews
…It is very clearly an Amazon review. eBay reviews don’t look anything like that.
I never know from one app to the next, whether it’s Apple, Android, Windows, or Linux, or user preferences, what style to expect.
It might not, I remember having imitation “stage” cigarettes a while ago and they just had powder inside a tube and still looked semi believable from more than a few feet away
I know the policies that Chevron has. You cannot enter the premises with even so much as a phone. Lithium batteries can and do explode. Vape cigarettes are no exception.
If someone wants to consume nicotine on the premises, they have to use chewing tobacco or dip.
No exceptions, period.
nic pouches ftw

They’re just paper, they do not contain a lithium battery.

You are aware that fuckin everything has a battery now, right? Including the vast majority of non-corded tools available on a refinery?
Edit: Derp. My brain misfired and collapsed ‘refinery’ and ‘off shore drilling platform’ into the same thing in a catastrophic level of idiocy.
They make tools specifically for that called intrinsically safe tools that are certified for use in explosive environments
Saw a set of brass wrenches at work back in the day. Had no idea that was a thing.
Ah, I should also add, that oil companies use air powered tools, not electric tools.
Why do you think that they’d use battery powered tools if, according to that other guy, they’ve banned lithium?
Because I’m a moron. I edited it.
You’re not a moron, people make mistakes and you’re beautiful <3
Nah I a moron. I appreciate it though <3
Read my other comment and take it up with Chevron.

And this is why the rule says “no fire, cigarette, lighters, etc etc or things resembling them”.
If you have a second person running at you, the third is going to kick you off the site.
Some people just want to watch the world burn, and those people probably shouldn’t work at oil refineries .
Good luck doing that on an oil rig
Refineries are generally built on land. And the petrochemical industry does not fuck around with direct safety (indirect, not so much)
How to prank family at get togethers.
