We once had a large black female OSHA inspector tell us that we needed to have a rescue boat on site and the workeres needed to be wearing life jackets when they were working near a drainage ditch that had 6” of water in it.
We asked to see that section of the regs, but she couldn’t find it, though she was just sure it was in there.
Wrote us up for insufficient MSDS sheets on dangerous products such as the limestone rip-rap we were using on the job
She was an affirmative action, welfare-to-work candidate who hit the government job lotto.
We used to have a CEO (whatever they call it) of the MARTA board in Atlanta who was a WELFARE queen who had just been in public housing before getting the job....
Incompetent, illiterate and low-IQ boobs getting jobs because they fit some criteria.
Did you ask her when she stopped receiving welfare payments? Is it written anywhere, that you have to be courteous to these scum bags, or does that mean they just write more things up?
I once had a Health Dept Inspector tell me we needed to fill in the micro cracks in our cement warehouse floors...
I got down on my hands and knees to measure them...
At worst they were ,less than a millimeter wide, most were a few hair thickness.
I told her we would immediately address the problem as we did not want to spread any disease by having dirty micro cracks in the cement...
Then I rolled my eyes when she turned and left
I would have some special “rip rap” for her...
All she has to do is pull my finger...
The only downside...She’d probably write me up for not having an MSDS sheet for excess flatulence!!!
