@corlin I've had to deal directly with OSHA when I was fire prevention officer in the fd back home - there were less regulations back in the day compared to today - we had to go thru special training for the hazmat squad - of which most of those regulations have been scrapped/replaced now...

@duglop

Ok this I believe, in many states local OHSA is underfunded by a lot.
Here in Oregon it works well.

See how I got that job.

Just down the road (15 miles or so) is a power plant - which is in mid crisis to run or not to run... usually when running it has a typical noticeable steam plume trailing with the wind - this photo of the plume is staggering compared to the usual plume - looks larger & closer than usual...

Another mural snuck in - don't really notice this unless you lgo down and ook for it,,,
there's another downtown and it's impossible to see the whole thing due to the fact that the other building is about 10 feet away (I'll get a photo tomorrow)

@corlin I was a volunteer fire fighter - and can tell you some of the regulations they had back in the day were serious overkill

and now as a warehouse worker, they uphold certain regulations but overlook others more often than not, and it's the things they overlook which are the problem...

@duglop

Hmmm,
🤔

Having worked for a while for OregonOSHA, I found in no way did it overstep its mandate, or enforce unwarranted regulation. I found them over all, willing to talk, train, and work with private companies. Especially small local businesses that did not have the capital to run a training program. Now if you fragrantly broke the rules knowingly, yes they would come down hard on your ass.

I asked AI to create something blue
well played AI - well played
(just kidding)

Don't get me wrong - OSHA is very overkill in many ways - but without OSHA all healthwise regulations will be at risk of being dropped!

@th3j35t3r Dear Diary - the cure worked, I'm no longer an asshole :)

You know something I have never seen here on COSO in almost 7 years?

"Blah blah blah - RT if you agree!"

You know why that is?

It's because you're not assholes.

1 thing comes to mind when you see a bunch of trump supporters in the same place

Glad to see has been downgraded but those winds and esp. flooding seem concerning. Take care, everyone.

If this is accurate & true then eliminating OSHA itself is disaster after disaster in the making!
