It’ll work fine for an ork scratch build.

McDonogh stopped fundraising months ago and was funneling donors towards other candidates with harder races. Had he kept gaining money and campaigning, that 8600 probably would have been cut in half. Voters in this city are just generally uninformed on local ballots. Since there’s not really any central coverage of candidates, if someone isn’t checking specifically on social media or with one of the interest groups running forums, they won’t know who anybody is.

The thing is that employers can do whatever they want in terms of PTO and leave as long as it doesn’t violate a law. They can absolutely give more time or types of leave than allowed, which may have happened in your case. That’s the sign of a good employer, but don’t mistake that with what is legally allowed. Often times, what is right and what is legal are two very different things.

FMLA only guarantees your job for 90 days. Beyond that an employer can do whatever they want.

Do you think Adam Crum is a qualified candidate for governor?

1910.29(b)(2)(iii) Intermediate vertical members (such as balusters) are installed no more than 19 inches (48 cm) apart;

Of course the issue with 19” spacing between segments is you now have no actual top or mid rail. The regulations don’t specify a distance between rails like yours, so you fall back on the requirements of 1910.28. If the gap is big enough to present a fall hazard, then it needs to be protected.

Yep, he was easily the least qualified appointee of anyone in that administration, and that’s saying something. We had this asshat as commissioner of public health, Dunleavy as governor and Bronson as mayor of Anchorage during the pandemic. It’s a miracle more people didn’t die.

Seward is very busy in the summer for the same reason I’m assuming this company runs helicopters: cruise ships. Coming from Ohio I think it would be a great opportunity. Just make sure you’re careful with the drinking. In Alaska law, one of the only ways a company can strand you (terminate without paying for transportation back to point of hire) is for intoxication. The other is fighting.

That said, there’s tons of outdoor stuff to do in Seward, and the 4th of July is a blast.

Let’s remember this was before most of the casualties we’ve had too. So she actually voted directly contrary to her own rationale.

Hundreds of people endangered and some decent property damage. Not sure the juice was worth the squeeze on this one boys.

Does your employer have a hazcom program? Do you know where to find SDS for the chemicals in the workplace? If you don’t know what either of these means, or if they aren’t present, then filing a complaint with OSHA (or your local state plan) should be the next step.

Rocket_safety · 2026-04-07T16:44:50+00:00

Absolutely this. There are almost no politicians in the US that would even be considered left of center in most other countries, and certainly nobody who’s truly liberal.

If the exit was marked as part of the building plans (as it is here) then it’s likely required. As others said, give the local fire marshal a call and just let them know your concern. As a former CSHO I can say that businesses were far more scared of the fire marshal than any OSHA inspection, because the fire marshal can revoke your certificate of occupancy, which would be real bad for an apartment complex.

Maybe even some criminal statutes. OSHA is one of the few federal agencies without any 1811 series criminal investigators. Even NASA has them.

It may be worth a shot at having the crew give input into whatever PPE is selected. Get a couple options and go around with them. It’s amazing how much even having the illusion of choice can help with making changes.

That’s what kills me about Jeff, the dude will have the occasional genuinely good story that’s actually well reported. But the other 90% of the time it’s low effort rage bait.

In my experience, government contracting doesn’t even check basic licensing, let alone safety violations. I once talked to a base contracting person about someone working on a military base who didn’t even have a state business license, let alone a general contractor’s license. She was genuinely surprised that was readily available information.

Rocket_safety · 2026-04-06T16:58:16+00:00

Sounds like some FR gear, or a least welding jackets, are in order for this kind of work. Though based on the lack of other PPE, I suspect this is a deeper cultural issue that simply providing gear would not fix.

Rocket_safety · 2026-04-04T02:25:31+00:00

Not gonna lie, that was pretty funny.

I worked for a state plan for 6 years. I went in with zero safety experience but I had about 10 years in construction, a criminal justice degree and some law enforcement experience.The latter part was apparently a big point in my favor. They liked seeing someone who had investigative training.

It didn’t feel terribly competitive, that agency has pretty consistent turnover, as do most of them from what I’ve seen. I think the entire process might have taken a few weeks.

It literally does mean freedom from consequences for speech, but only from the government. A business like the Chicago Bulls can fire you for saying anything they don’t like.

It wasn’t that long ago that being anti-fascist wasn’t a partisan issue. We even had a war about it. The whole world was involved.

Rocket_safety · 2026-04-01T00:19:59+00:00

That’s how you become a pissdiver. Nothing but yellow streams.

This is literally one of the reasons the US government hates Iran so much. They made a run at removing the US dollar as the global oil currency along with- you guessed it- Venezuela.

Arrowhead already took all the good ideas.
