ladder

Work in any physical job for a day or two and you'll likely see some OSHA-unapproved moments of safety failure that you may wish you hadn't. Extremely high ladders, improperly handled safety harnesses, unsafe tools and long-past-due fire extinguishers are just a few things one might see lurking around. And that's not even counting the unsafe maneuvers so many people try to pull off daily. Safety first.

Some OSHA regulations seem sort of strict and ridiculous, but some really bad safety fails make you concede the point that some rules are there for a reason. It's non an enviable situation to be in to have a boss who wants you to do some sketchy-ass moves just so you can replace a light bulb, but we've been there.

Gotta risk it for the biscuit. Well, you don't necessarily HAVE to risk it. Sometimes putting on a safety harness would take an extra 5 minutes and that doesn't seem worth it. Anyway, here are some non-OSHA approved dudes in precariously hazardous situations. And here's some more safety fails if you're interested.

These worksites are just a little hazardous.

Don't let OSHA find out. Or the union. They'll have a kitten if they saw these places. So much for employee welfare. Some of these solutions to get to hard to reach spots to work are pretty clever. Most are just massive safety hazards waiting for a lawsuit to happen. But sometimes people have a one track mind, and just need to get done doing whatever they need to do, caution and common sense be damned. This guy knows all about when common sense goes out the window.
