Somewhere there’s a structural engineer who’s in a lot of trouble.

I’m assuming the pool will be replaced with a nice garden.

One second to empty the entire pool.

Engineering is hard.

The structural engineers in China wouldn’t let that happen. The Chi-Com government would round them up and execute them at sunrise.

But, engineering ability, and mathematical ability should be distant thirds to racial and gender diversity.

Yieks. I’ve been on a roof top pool before in Dubai. So much fun. Usually a bar with drinking and music. Gladly this didn’t happen. Lol.

Dang. Not just a failure, but a total failure of the entire bottom of the pool.

And that’s why I will never swim in the glass pool overlooking the city below.

It used to be you could “go Galt”. Now, they fire you before you have the chance.

I was a laborer at a high rise construction site in the 70’s in Northern Va that caved in after the pool on the top floor collapsed. Killed quite a few guys.

Our apt pool is on the third floor above the garage here in Fort Worth, sucker froze 4 inches thick during the Deep Freeze in Feb, people were skating on it until the thaw, now its a nice rain collector/mosquito breeding station.
