What a lovely thread... said no one.
Let me tell you how my experience with a similar situation went back in the late 80’s. I got sent out on a old 610 bobcat at a meat processing plant, I had never been in one. They pulled this machine outside when I got there and it was just covered in guts. Just the sight of it had me ready to hurl but the smell wasn’t too bad. I just walked around the machine for 10 minutes wondering how in the hell I was going to do anything with this machine without getting covered in the nastiness.Reminds me when I used to go to a beef processing plant to work on their 440 propane powered Bobcat they used to move hind quarters and 1/2 cows around with. From slapping through all the hanging meat the machine was just caked in fat. Working on it there in the freezer was OK. Then they had a serious issue and they decided to bring it to our shop. Of course I got the job, it was a Friday, brought it into the shop (90 degree + weather) and go home for the weekend. Came in on Monday and the odor in the shop would make you gag. Worst part was I was walking to my bay and I said to one of my coworkers, does it look like that machine is moving? Yep, machine was covered top to bottom, inside and out with maggots. OH joy!
LMAO!Had my own load of Honey Buckets from Septic Tank companies as well having to help at two of the quarries on Lift Station repairs they handled themselves(I'd rather shat in the woods), then i get to the Nuke all is Good, No poop trucks, No Landfill and then TADA, a lift station we had to inspect DAILY as in climb Down the ladder into this tube affair Pump station with electrical and mechanical stuff in the dry(sometimes), and then a less than pleasant set of "Sh!t Whippers" that lift station fed where the effluent of the plant facilities especially the Clerical Staff went where we used a Pool net to harvest the Red Cotton Trout at the dividing weirs, or we would have to Tag Out Lock Out the Potable Water System for repairs and the facilities got signs "DO NOT USE" where you know how that works. Women are NASTY, Plain and Simple, JUST NASTY!!!!! I swear Enganearing PLANNED the water outages with the Hormone Cycles of our Clerical Staff, they would nearly ALL be on the Red Cotton Pont SAME TIME OF MONTH and then a water outage. Toilets in WOMEN'S Facilities would be Terd High above the Seat, bowl ABSOLUTELY FULL, add to that the 'Candy Sack Dispenser Pockets' in the Stalls that were NOT trash Cans would be loaded with the lovely stinking residuals and NONE of the clerks had ANY idea who did that, had portolets outside but they were seldom IF EVER used by the gals. 724 Full Time employees, just under Half women.
