Quote from: Earendil on February 02, 2012, 02:27:36 PMI heard strange noises (stranger than usual) coming from the men's room, one hot summer day. Went in and found one of the older guys on the floor, visibly dazed and sweating like a pedophile in a Barney suit. I called 911 and charged the mini defib machine. I wanted to zap him but he wouldn't let me.  Paramedics showed up quickly.

CLEAR!

I wonder if we have one of those here, it gets sorta boring sometimes and I feel like I need a little pick-me-up.

 :laugh: I'll bet you do. I think OSHA bugged us to get one. We keep two, one in bindery and one up here. They'll cook a hot pocket in 2 seconds, crispy.

We're not that "advanced". Our first aid kit has Bandaids that don't stick and aspirin that expired in 2007. :laugh:

"There's been a lot of research recently on how hard it is to dislodge an impression once it's been implanted in someone's mind. (This is why political attack ads don't have to be true to be effective. The other side can point out their inaccuracies, but the voter's mind privileges the memory of the original accusation, which was juicier than any counterargument ever could be.)"

It's called "prepress". :laugh:

99% of the population doesn't even know we exist or are aware of the work that goes into printing their crap.

Instead of a first aid kit we're just encouraged to kill anyone that gets injured. It's cheaper than repairing them. Don't want the health insurance rates to go up.

Thought I was the only one. Paper towels and masking tape work better. If you need meds just talk to the pressmen. Pretty sure they have better ones.

I'd rather have stories told than be telling stories of what I could have done.

i had to do that when i sliced my hand on the cutter. there was no first aid kit in the shop, apparently hasnt been one for a long time. not sure how we have been passing OSHA inspections..

We just don't let OSHA in the door. Everyone here has been through the meetings before at a former employer and all know 90% of it is bullshit. The pressmen both have their own first aid kits and I have one in my car at all times.

We have a full vending machine with every kind of ailment band-aid there is. Pills, vitamins, wraps... kinda inconvenient when you are bleeding from the hand like a stuck pig and have to fish change out of your pocket. Total horse-shit.
