Re: Bump start a disc cutter!

Re: Bump start a disc cutter!
We had a new lad working with us doing some concrete shuttering. He must had a bad time as a new kid on another job, so he wasn't going to be fooled by us. Sad thing was we were too busy to do any clowning around. We sent him to the site office for some Hilti nails. He took exception to this and told us there wasn't such a thing. The more we assured him there were such things, the more angry he became with us. He ended up squaring up to one of the lads who was built like a brick sh*t house. We actually had to sack him on the spot he was that bad!
He had around a 6 mile journey home , literally, on his push bike!

Re: Bump start a disc cutter!
Years ago we had a cocky apprentice, heavy plant fitter (diggers, land scrapers etc)working with us. He once wore a new pair of safety boots with highly polished steel toe caps to work. Bragging about how they had oil resistant soles heat resistant uppers etc, etc. So we held the little fxxxxr down and welded a small bar from toe cap to toe cap. He was not a happy bunny. It took him hours to grind itoff and polish them up again.
Looking back its a miracle we never burnt his feet badly. BUT he deserved it.
You would be sacked on the spot now for this type of horse play.

Re: Bump start a disc cutter!
we had a road replacement squad in at our marine terminal.Bitelli, Planer, heavy and vibratory rollers, naked flames etc etc
You can imagine our process folk were apoplectic with terror as we are a petrochem producer so need to be duly cautious.
I was the site company man looking after this team, and to say they weren't used to working in a gas plant would be an understatement, so before they started work, much was done to educate them.
The squad leader was a right hard case & he had his nephew working for him (amongst others). said he would keep them in line....
The nephew, well, he was a little difficult. I pulled him up twice in quick succession for not wearing his helmet/glasses/gloves. He just wasn't used to it and clearly didn't like it.
I could see uncle looking sideways...
Ten minutes later nephew turned up minus two teeth and with a badly broken nose...blood from head to foot. We had to get him offsite sharpish.
problem solved?
