Damn, people need to lighten up here, OP posts an obvious joke and half of the comments are just "mUh iNdUsTrIaL SaFeTy"

lemmy in general isn't that great when it comes to memes, fun, etc

everyone's too focused on ideology or whatever

: 3 <-Does this look like the face of someone who is joking?

Yeah anyone who can do this IRL understands the danger of doing this IRL. No one who has a forklift operator license is so stupid as to not get what those machines can do.

And if anyone thinks safety people never hamstring operations over silly ideas of risk, or turn into little dictators feeding their egos, think again.

I think of them as an extension of HR. Their purpose is to protect companies.

Some of their more asinine findings are merely efforts to show they're being productive; companies expect returns in all things.

Fuck me for not wanting to die to industrial negligence I guess.

I must be the fun police here, because all I see here is a desire to hurt people that keep companies from putting me in harm's way.

OSHA are the good guys, they are who you can call when shit gets dangerous and the bosses don't care.

[–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 19 points 12 hours ago

Yeah after knowing in great detail what industrial equipment can do to soft squishy people, I'm thinking this "fun police" thing is a corporate psy-op to push for further deregulation.

Because safety (and fines for blatantly violating it) costs money, you guys. :(

What a dumb post

[–] therealjcdenton@lemmy.zip 3 points 9 hours ago

This would be funny if it had TF2 characters

I remember seeing a video where somebody ran full speed into raised forks. They did NOT get up quickly. Imagine if the force was coming from the truck itself. It’d likely kill you

I, too, watched "Staplerfahrer Klaus" - great documentary.

[–] MothmanDelorian@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

No but in this case it would really hurt the person to might break their legs.
