Why I Hate People

What I do when I'm bored.....

Today I had the joy of getting (along with the rest of my office) re-trained in the wonders of WHMIS and Fall Protection. I have done both of these before... and in the case of WHMIS, this is something like 6th or 7th time. Suffice to say, I retained some or all of it. Thus, I was bored. And when I'm bored, I tend to try and entertain myself above and beyond the typical "haha... he said duty"-level stuff.

The following sentence fragments, taken entirely out of context, made me chuckle enough not to go insane...

"it is the responsibility of the worker to receive adequate oral"

"so you either have to shave your facial hair, or give it to someone else"

Also, I was thankfully situated next to someone who was equally bored by the WHMIS video (disregarding that I was thinking, "Hello! I'm Troy McClure... you may remember me from such training videos as...." the entire time).

Narrator: She put on all her PPE, [pause for effect] except her face shield....
Me: I wonder what happens next?
Him: Probably the same thing that happened last year....
Me: I keep hoping that one of these years we get the Director's Cut or something.

    I've seen the Director's Cut for "Always Wear Goggles". He takes it in some unexpected directions.

    And I thought Brandon Routh was a poor replacement in the remake of that collision-safety video, didn't you?
