Currently 1.5 hours deep into a mandatory online OSHA 10 course. Every slide is time locked - even the ones with 2 bulletin points. I'm trying not to bang my head on my desk.. which as I think about it would be some sort of OSHA violation in itself. (Silver lining is I only got tagged with a 10 course. My boss got stuck with a 30 course... Yikes)

DISCUSSION (20)

I’ve done hazwopper 40 hr and have to do 8 hr refreshers once a year. I have no sympathy.

I’ve never had to deal with It but my Dad has been in Manufacturing for the last 30 years. As a general plant manager for the last 15 or so. He’s not a fan of OSHA. Calls then “ OH SHIT” Nuff said

I am OSHA 30 certified. Ugh. There is too much boring stuff in there.

As a manufacturing facility (of sorts, really small volume), we have to be under some OSHA rules, but we mostly only have regular small safety training/topic meetings rather than full-blown seminars. Now, while temping somewhere else I have had the joys of medical emergency/body fluids OSHA training. Huzzah.

I am OSHA 10 Certified. It took me close to 200 hours to finish as I kept forgetting about it and it’d close. My teacher was FURIOUS, but I didn’t care.

I work for a municipality so we police ourselves. That’s right, the thing you solely trust to spend your hard earned money polices themselves on safety.

Nope no s afety training here. Maybe the warehouse people get it, but as a desk jockey, my exposure to such things is low. I guess I should avoid RSIs or something?

Last corporate training I took was about sexual harassment and the gist of that was mostly “If you report something and we fire you, it’s not automatically retaliation so don’t sue us”. Clearly the whole thing was about limiting liability rather than doing anything useful.

Eh. I read that poster at the back of a restaurant kitchen once...

Wash hands. don’t work too much. Don’t lick asbestos, lead chips, or oil soaked rags.

I think that should make me OSHA certified which means boss man owes me more money?

Oh I hope not, OSHA probably wouldn’t be cool with what I drove to work this morning.

OSHA would have a really hard time with my previous job at a marina. I read the applicable regulations at the time and was like, uh, we would cease to function.

Yep. Had a drop-in last year around this time. My boss and the plant manager ignored my expertise when I made safety recommendations. Turns out OSHA said they should’ve listened and smacked us with a big fine. So I got a promotion when the plant manager was fired over it.

Now I have regular calls while we get our shit together on the safety front. And you think safety meetings are fun as an attendee? Try writing the damn things...

Yep I am good for the next 5 years . I can’t wait to be stuck wasting time on brain dead stuff when I need to take it again :D The time lock BS makes me want to rebel from their slides out of spite. Maybe I’ll stand on the very top of an ill supported ladder for a bit to get it out of my system.

Nothing from OSHA, but I do have to go through a series of time locked slideshows every year on various topics. I had to do 17 of them this year. They range from 10-40 minutes long. The same stuff over, and over, and over ...

I have done the hazwoper training for a job my company did, although I never worked on that job. Th en they let it expire for everyone. Same for lead abatement. We only keep our asbestos training current and I have 2 state licenses I keep, my company keeps up on a few more.

I did my 30 hour OSHA in 3 days with a group of coworkers in 2003. The class was laid back and we went to the strip club for lunch the last day.

I did my OSHA 30 this year, after doing my OSHA 10 last year. But I get paid by the hour, and OSHA 30 took me 45 hours or so. I just watched TV and occasionally clicked a button.
