Next week I have My Yearly 30 Hour OSHA Training Class. The instructor loves to seize current events and I am sure he will did up a bunch of violations that happened on the Deep Horizon Oil Platform.
I will pass on what I can.

Has anyone heard if the last inspector of that rig is still working? Or, even alive! If I was him I would change my name and move out of the whole country!

They going to make Cops wear Hard Hats, Steel Toed Shoes, Safety Vests, and Safety Glasses now?????
Or is it just ear plugs when you blow away a rapist in the act with a knife to the victims throat???
Would the rape victim get cited for not wearing a hard hat and steel toed boots?

Well, NoBama was told his heavy handed rule was unconstitutional today by a judge. They can drill deep water for now again. It is up to BHO and his henchman to do their job and inspect the rigs instead of just collecting their pay. Basically, they have to actually do the job.

Thank goodness for the lift on the moratorium.Lots of guys down here are sitting at home wondering when they'll be able to go out and put food on the table.

What happened to throwing a million inspectors out to check on other rigs?
No,just go ahead and cease all drilling.

Something fishy's going on.no pun intended

Only to find out that the judge has investments in the oil industry.

Guess he doesn't want to hurt his retirement fund.
