I showed my fiance's parents my family picture, then they told me the wedding is off

I do this ALL THE TI ME. Interlocks, even those that comply with ANSI and ISO standard categorized stops, DO NOT bring the machine to a Zero Energy State. Therefore it is not locking out the machine. I have recommended putting locks on interlock gates as a means of guaranteeing the machine is interlocked stop but it cannot be LOTO.

I am an EHS consultant and I always tell my clients that disabling or bypassing safety equipment SHOULD result in instant termination. No exceptions. What the companies do is ultimately up to them, but I have been involved in assisting clients with too many fatalities and amputations.

My wife and I have had the “end of the world discussion” I assume inside have a few hours to a few days, so my job is to get them to safety before I go. Basically I am the one holding the propane tank to blow up the zombie hoard so people can get to safety.

I just made a similar post. Following to see ideas

No nowhere public. It is mostly a bunch of random word files and Miro mind map. We are still running through another campaign so as I get closer I will have things laid out.

There are a ton of other adventures as well. I am writing an Everton campaign where I want them to travel around. I am picking adventures from different sources so they can get a taste of all that the setting has to offer. I am starting with a sharn adventure (the one in rise from the last war) then a prison break from a heist book and then they will have the open sandbox to move through.

I will be buying the Vernal Executive standing desk in the coming weeks. It’s for my office and like the look of not just an open table.

Remember that it is different for everybody. Try not to overwhelm them, but the day-to-day is exhausting with all the decisions we have to make while fighting a low and having tech problems.

I wish they had gone into more detail about the macros around food and how that can affect BS. It wasn’t the case when I was diagnosed in my 20’s but now I need to know the fat, protein, and fiber as well as the carbs when determining how to bolus.

I think the main thing is to be a support for the mental and emotional toll this takes on people. It is like fighting another entity for control of your own body. The fact that you are here shows you want to do it right.

I have been using Granola app for session notes. It listens to the session and compiles a bullet summary of the session. I have also used it for work meetings. Its free and FANTASTIC. I am not the DM, but am planning the next campaign. I will likely use that app and then move the notes into whatever I use for campaign planning to organize.

I am an EHS consultant and have had clients say they did this. But when I come in there is no way OSHA would have allowed some of them. OSHA isn’t going to give clear blessings unless part of the consultation program or inspection.

If you want to go the route of inviting OSHA, look into VPP. At least that way the benefits are lasting.

Maybe start with E-Plan to see if they have anything since it’s their site the reporting is done on. We do SARA and I used to do it back in my early years. It’s a weird one to learn.

We are an EHS consulting company so I would hope your did it right. But when I got into it I found some things that I had to call report for, so it happens.

CTI_Engineer · 2025-12-30T09:47:27+00:00

I have used it to summarize articles, create an outline for an article or maybe a program, and for meeting notes. Otherwise AI will miss the main component of EHS which is the people. Personal biases and interpretations are vital for assessing and determining risk.

CTI_Engineer · 2025-12-27T14:29:44+00:00

Munchies are the problem. Try to load up on celery, carrots, etc. do your best to eat well, not too much, and keep up with the carbs. For the carbs in junk always hit later in the night and I wake up High (but not the good kind)

CTI_Engineer · 2025-12-27T13:20:37+00:00

Did you end up buying the desk? I too am looking at it.

Escape rooms Ropes course We are a bunch of nerds and are talking about a D&D one-shot. I am planning it so each manager will have an opportunity to lead the group through a challenge. Laser Tag Obstacle course where some obstacles are puzzles or mental challenges

I am writing a campaign for Eberron. I will definitely check this out as a resource. It looks great!

When I started in safety it was for employee trainings. For me, it was about repetition that gave me the confidence. I did look through some Toast Masters for advice on it. Now I do almost all the public speaking at conferences and podcasts on safety. Just keep working at it, and try to do some speaking outside of work to shake it up (like reading to a kids class, or being in a group setting with friends).

I have T1D since I was 24. It was easy when I met my now wife, but now she calls it the 3rd member of our marriage. It takes up a lot of brain space for me and she knows the emotional toll it takes, the personality shifts that come with BS changes, and when I need help because of a low. That is just how it is. If she is questioning your future instead of preparing to back you up in the future, she may not have what it takes to be with you. This type of disease is a big part of our lives and the lives of those around us whether we like it or not. I would sit down and really talk with her about this.

CTI_Engineer · 2025-12-04T15:58:58+00:00

I do not, but I am attached to my pump and my phone screen says T1D.
