COVID-19: who’s going full doomsday prep on this?

[caad9]

My cousin is an engineer working on a very major infrastructure project in Victoria, earlier this year the entire site was shutdown because the bench in the sickbay was not regulation height.
After the place was cleared out, someone came in and measured it and it was exactly what it should be.

My brother works on rail projects at present, level crossing removals.
They got shut down for a couple of days because they didn't have a covered walkway from the smoko room to the toilet block.

This is the kind of bullshit we are up against, so it's no wonder the unions are giving people a gentle nudge to sit on a road and pretend they are doing something meaningful. They are far too powerful

moron allowance...

Im not sure the national budget can deal with that amount of spending.

Is that a bullbar on the front of your car?

Unfortunately not my car. A friend sent me this. I did consider riding up with a dozen eggs though. Would be worth the beating I reckon.

Knowing you….and also knowing the average fkn tradie, my money is still on you.

Seconded. I dunno about Victorian tradies, but the 6 litres of Iced Coffee your average SA tradie imbibes per day doesn't do a great deal for their cardiovascular abilities. I reckon a bit of ditch eggs / run strategy guerrilla style will see you right.

Guerrilla Gravity style? Right up his alley.

Guerrilla Gravity style? Right up his alley.

The eggs would be broken before they reached their destination, unfortunately.

Yeah, but trusting his GG with SRAM gearing to get him away reliably is a bit of a risk... What if he has to ride off a small gutter or shift under load?

That’s Guerilla not gorilla! We were taught to step lightly in the jungle. Plus I’ve read Che’s biography. I know how to do it!

Use dog eggs.

I'd like to blame you for not getting my dig at GG's shitty QC, but well... It was a crap joke. Anyway. Fuck those idiots on Ballarat Rd. Hurry up and build the fucking hospital already.

But the lack of cover never stops anyone heading to the shops at Smoko, or out the front gate for a dart.

I remember a project back 10 or 15 years ago I was on where the then secretary of the CFMEU in Victoria deemed us important enough to visit and declared the stair planks on our access stair weren't compliant. To get back to work, we brought the scaffolders in, removed them all, drove them round the block and reinstalled them, at which point they were apparently fine.

Left construction management after 20 years a couple of years back - don't miss the cesspool one bit.

Can you still have alcohol on site? 15 years ago I was a HVAC equipment supplier and we used to get around contract variations with slabs. At one point one of mechanical contractor's tool lock ups was dedicated purely to slab storage. It was like the final warehouse scene from Raider of the Lost Ark.

WTF? Why has it tagged my name? I didn’t say that! I mean. It’s true. But I didn’t say it.
