    I sometimes work at Pittsburgh Airport with one of my instructors and it looks a lot like this. Go up in a boom lift about 5 stories onto a platform about that size. Luckily I'm small enough to fit inside the furnace so I can move around easily. But there we have to wear harnesses.

    No way I would have worked on that without a harness and lanyard secured properly. That's bad craziness.

    I don't remember the horsepower now, but yes, another guy and myself lifting. I knew better, but we have to feed the family so we do stupid sheit don't we?
    Moral of story is don't let anybody force you into doing somrthing you're not comfortable with. You can always find another job.

    compression fracture, moving cooling tower motors while working for an idiot of a supervisor.
    I look at every compressor replacement much differently now. Just be careful.

    I used to be willing to do stupid things like that, until I broke my back. you tend to look at things differently after a life, and habit, changing event.

    my days of "ah, I can get to it, just be a second." are over. the older you get the more your mind will change too.

    that one definitely required fall protection.

    you need to tie off in those situations. you may get away with it for awhile but it will catch up with you. seriously. you don't want your family to get that phone call.

    I Dont no what is what.. all I can say is really????? Come on now!!! Had to see the job I was on today owner says the units are always maintained...

    Look at this..

    They had no service ports anywhere.. had to add the access t to put my gauges on there.. the wiring is spaghetti and there is no switches anywhere just straight wire to units..

    Oh goody, railing as required by code, but don't think working on it from that side of the railing is approved. Almost makes you wonder which was there first, the rail or the RTU.
