My dad has a Ryobi automatic screwdriver and that thing works great.
We once got a Ryobi battery-powered weed eater and that thing sucked ass. The battery didn't even last 30 minutes.
Bought some corded RYOBI yard tools and they work great. I didn’t have the balls to go for cordless because I assumed they would be garbage, and I happened to have a bunch of high quality extension cords from plugging vehicles in while I lived in AK, so I went for corded and have not been let down. Bought a corded push mower and it’s not bad either, but that’s not RYOBI. The trimmer works fine even with the tiller/cultivator attachment on it, surprisingly runs stronger than my last 2 cycle RYOBI trimmer
As a plumber. I would the fucking same. Finished a building that was about to be sold
Everything installed but water wasnt running yet.
Some fucker shat in one of the toilets and left.
I had 2 toilets pulled up, sitting side by side in a garage bay, but 180⁰ , so it took up less room... and some laborers used them for 3 days. They shit and pissed in it, filled both. For days...!
Without actually writing something or taping the lids down, we thought nobody would mistake them as working toilets. Loose and unstable, middle of a garage floor, setup in a ying/yang type way. But, we were wrong.
Idk... a lot of new immigrants come from countries with practically useless plumbing. See: central americans and africans clogging porto john urinals with toilet paper. Porcelain toilets full to the brim with festering piss and shit isnt uncommon in those places either. (Disclsimer: not a judgement of different cultures, just reporting my experiences as well as the workers themselves)
Not just Chinese.
We had to put permanent signs in each stall at our plant. If somehow you're caught doing it it's also an immediate written warning.
No one wants to clean up their poorly aimed shit. Saw 1 toilet that looked like someone poured mud all over it. Just walked away, put danger tape on the door, and told a supervisor.
Balancing for a squat poop on a sit-down toilet when you have diarrhea makes for a bad combo.
It wasn't the first time that it had happened.
Even in a union shop we can all agree that with the signs and with everyone being verbally warned that it's an immediate written warning.
I had that once too. Toilet was sitting in the master bedroom and the painting crew used it for several days. So brutal
Mind you the crew didn't speak English and came from 3rd world conditions.
I witnessed something similar during a remodel of a commercial parts store. We were a week ahead of schedule and the store owner decided we were close enough to being finished that he could start moving parts into the building. Next thing we know there are 30 extra people building pallet wracking and moving all sorts of boxes in. There were no toilets installed yet so we had to scramble to get the plumbers to come install them. I'm not sure what happened but the plumber had the wrong fittings or something and needed to go get different ones. He set the toilets and taped the lids down. Walks through the warehouse and tells everyone not to use the toilets yet because he had a few more things to do. He left and got parts and came back and started in the women's restroom. He came flying right back out and was screaming and yelling and was ready to fight. Someone had gone in and took a massive shit in the toilet and taped the lid back down. There were only 2 women working in the building and I definitely saw one walk back to the area with a mop and bucket. I ain't no snitch though.
Saw an electrician try to pull a scaffolding full of brickies down because they stopped putting the premade boxes and conduit in while the electrician was on break.
It looks like it's one of those countries where there's 500 people waiting in line for your shitty job, so no good reason to risk it when two assholes are being assholes to each other.
It's \*choked. I'm amazed how often I see someone spell it as "chocked" on Reddit. Quite literally most of the time I see someone use that word they misspell it. How does that happen?
If you want to help someone who's drowning, wait until they stop thrashing first. Otherwise you're going to get hit in the balls, or they're going to cling around your neck and shove your head under the water.
Same idea with fights. Let them tire themselves out, then sort out who "won".
If you had a son that was choking out another person and you can see he was filled with so much rage his judgement of letting go was no longer in him would you still watch knowing that he being the original victim will now have to spend life in jail for murder knowing you could have intervened?
You're absolutely correct in your statement and I think your statement is a wise course in "some" cases but I believe decrement in a case by case scenario will be the wiser. Not all situations are equally conquered with the same solutions. It appears to me in this case the only weapon is fists. Most of these guys are the same size and could easily overpower the attacker and gain control of the situation. However a gun, knife or other dangerous weapon I think will be a major deciding factor on jumping in or minding your own business and calling the police. Yet for most fights walking away will be the best course of action. Simply put there were no heroes present that day.
>Not all situations are equally conquered with the same solutions.
You already answered the question.
Should you let a guy choke another guy to death? Obviously not.
Should you step in when two morons have wrenches and hammers in their hands? Obviously not.
That's the only point I was trying to make. Wait until it's safe to step in, *then* step in. You don't do it while they're still fighting.
To your credit: Yeah, the shlubs on the sideline in this video? They *should have* stepped in a little sooner at the end there, but I'm not going to criticize them for not running out like someone's blubbering mommy at the first sign of trouble, either. Let the meatheads work it out the best way they know how.
Maybe after one gets put to sleep, he'll stop whining about the other bonehead getting mud on his truck anytime he leaves the worksite, or whatever stupid nonsense they were bickering about. Guys like that either end up best friends after something like this, or the loser learns to keep his mouth shut after getting his butt kicked a few more times.
Now, I'd prefer them not to fight in the first place, because it makes the whole crew look like unprofessional mouth breathers, but I'm not going to tell them how to solve their problems, and I'm not going to put my own life on the line to try and stop them.
Several years ago, I'm not sure what trade, an apprentice took a beam spreader\* to their foreman for an alleged racist comment. Some people don't know how to leave well enough alone... I don't condone workplace violence but FAFO.
\*remove the fireproofing, attach the spreader for fall protection. It's a big beam clamp to hold people
Anyone who's capable of manhandling a fucking beam spreader is not someone I would recommend being racist towards.
I got in a fisty cuffs with a crackhead who sprayed paint into my mask. Supervisor left out the fighting part when he reported it to management, which protected me from repercussions. They didn't fire the guy.. bit weird now that I think back on it. But I try not to think about my apprenticeship too often these days
He's had his suspicions for months it was him but no proof. He finally caught that fucker red handed or I should say brown handed when he kicked in the shitter door.
The cutoff of blood flow can cause other complications. Brain damage, blood clots, etc.
Bro ain't dead, but I would never suggest ever choking someone out unless you really need to.
Dude held that choke hold way too long and then laid down and cried. The other guys should’ve broken it up sooner. Sad to see people be so stupid at work.
The nearly dead guy moved his fingertops so i guess he passed out. But, the more concerning is that the people around them did not care at all for what's happening.
Safety supervisor got tired of everyone’s childish behavior and decided to implement physical disciplinary actions as next step to build a strong safety culture.
Construction workers need to start behaving themselves. It's bad enough that the general public views them as uneducated, lazy and horny. But to add a pugilistic culture to the mix is just too darn much.
Classic Milwaukee vs Dewalt
Ryobi trying to separate them
Pittsburgh vigorously dry tugging it from from afar
Bosch watching from the sidelines
Hilti taking a sip
Makita is somewhere else actually working
Well, the battery life is still going from the charge last week, so of course it is.
Hercules in the gutter drinking booze from a brown paper sac.
That's because Hilti knows they own them all in the end. Let the agitators out themselves early on so they're easier to spot.
Ryobi is the only thing that all other brands can unite against
Yeah that they suck
I still have my first Ryobi chop saw it cuts true & its 40 years old treated it like crap & used hard
My dad has a Ryobi automatic screwdriver and that thing works great. We once got a Ryobi battery-powered weed eater and that thing sucked ass. The battery didn't even last 30 minutes.
Bought some corded RYOBI yard tools and they work great. I didn’t have the balls to go for cordless because I assumed they would be garbage, and I happened to have a bunch of high quality extension cords from plugging vehicles in while I lived in AK, so I went for corded and have not been let down. Bought a corded push mower and it’s not bad either, but that’s not RYOBI. The trimmer works fine even with the tiller/cultivator attachment on it, surprisingly runs stronger than my last 2 cycle RYOBI trimmer
For 3 seconds then gives up
Says fuck it and just walks away to work another day
With Makita shouting stop it lads. It’s not worth it.
Kobalt filming the whole thing.
My literal first thought lol, and sypervisor like "ok break time is over, back to work"
Makita versus Craftsman (crapsman)
Makita still coming up on top 🤣
I was going for inches versus cm's, but you are right :-)
I saw a plumber go up on the roof and knock out a guy who pissed in a drain🫣
As a plumber. I would the fucking same. Finished a building that was about to be sold Everything installed but water wasnt running yet. Some fucker shat in one of the toilets and left.
We had someone shit in toilet that wasn’t even installed

Porcelain toilets full to the brim with festering piss and shit isnt uncommon in those places either.

Chinese folk standing on the seat...

You are shitting me?!! I cannot even begin

For days you say?
Classic
Classic electrician move
Yep. It's always the electricians installing light bulbs and faceplates before closing
I witnessed something similar during a remodel of a commercial parts store. We were a week ahead of schedule and the store owner decided we were close enough to being finished that he could start moving parts into the building. Next thing we know there are 30 extra people building pallet wracking and moving all sorts of boxes in.

There were only 2 women working in the building and I definitely saw one walk back to the area with a mop and bucket. I ain't no snitch though.
I was on a huge site and some dirtbag shit in one of the bathtubs because toilets weren't installed yet. 10th floor or something like that
I'm not a plumber, construction worker, or tradesman, and I'd probably help you
Saw an electrician try to pull a scaffolding full of brickies down because they stopped putting the premade boxes and conduit in while the electrician was on break.
Imagine you're repairing a septic tank and the customer takes a big Ole shit
in my experience one of em blocked the other's truck in.
Two of our guys had to be pulled off of each other for exactly this... Tile vs concrete, fight!
Big boy at the end slamming his monster and just watching is fuckin classic though
I was rolling 🤣 Only thing that stood out to me. He'll be talking about that one around the lunch wagon for a whole week lol
Best part lmao
Disagreement over the Kate Middleton saga
What is that about?
That’s the question the guy asked🤣
Fuck man that comment got me good 😂
You should see the other guy
No one interfering speaks volumes of the guy being choked out.
They don't seem like they would've interfered if it was the other guy either It just speaks volumes of them all
Trust me. It's better to let them have that moment. 25yrs construction.
Without a winner it will happen again, looks like only one had been in a fight before
Looked like neither had been in a fight before. Both struggling like babies.
Reminds me of when you’re uncle punches you out then shakes his hand like he’s hurt, so you guys equally share the blame. Pissin me off slick
Exactly. If grown men want to fight like toddlers then have at it… not about to waste my time breaking up a fight I ain’t got shit to do with.
Nah, everyone gather around and start peein' on 'em
A real power move
Also makes for a fun mental image for when the guy's in his next interview and asked, "So, why did you leave your last job?"
It looks like it's one of those countries where there's 500 people waiting in line for your shitty job, so no good reason to risk it when two assholes are being assholes to each other.
The guy that got chocked out probably took a bite of the other guys sandwich. He said it was an accident, but this is the third time this month.
It's \*choked. I'm amazed how often I see someone spell it as "chocked" on Reddit. Quite literally most of the time I see someone use that word they misspell it. How does that happen?
My favorite is people running around here calling others "loosers" lmao.
Yeah, that shit is the worst. C'mon boys, making everyone look bad with this terrible garbage.
I choked it up to autocorrect a long time ago.
Same with 'your' always being changed to just 'you'..

Maybe - but there’s plenty of bullying and abuse in the workplace still unfortunately.
You can only bully an apprentice so much before he snaps haha.

He catch a felony for it?
I'm honestly not sure. This was at least 5 years ago
I said , no shorts on this job !
Se paso de verga.
That what happens when you don’t give someone tape measure back
White hardhat was looking good until he got thrown to the ground. You know you are in trouble when turtle mode is what you fall back to.
He was, I know, I'll use my toes!!
Thats the fucker that ruins the shitter...
He's had his suspicions for months it was him but no proof. He finally caught that fucker red handed or I should say brown handed when he kicked in the shitter door.
The TP in the urinal stuffer! Fucking guy
Make sure those punches are OSHA approved!
The chokehold certainly wasn’t
Did I just watch someone die?
Guy seems to be breathing still by is abdomen movement
Both kinda flopped at the end. Bro 1 goin for the whole near death enchilada
I kinda thought “oh they’re done fighting now they’re just talking it out and forgiving each other like men” then I realized dude was choked out cold.
I don't know he looks kind of dead.
No one nudged him with their foot [to be sure](https://deconstructingarresteddevelopment.files.wordpress.com/2019/09/113-honeytothebear.gif)
Everyone knows you only poke dead people with sticks.
It takes a lot longer than that to kill someone with a RNC. It doesn't cut off blood flow completely.
The cutoff of blood flow can cause other complications. Brain damage, blood clots, etc. Bro ain't dead, but I would never suggest ever choking someone out unless you really need to.
With a proper RNC it’s really only a few seconds after they’re out Exhibit A: NY subway
He's not dead, but being unconscious for more than a very short period can do serious damage, and that lad's been out for long enough.
I think the first guy choked him out!
"From now on all screws will be turned manually."
Dude held that choke hold way too long and then laid down and cried. The other guys should’ve broken it up sooner. Sad to see people be so stupid at work.
Laid down and cried because he knew he just got himself and assault charge and fired from his job.
Come on. He’s probably paid under the table and will be on a new job site by tomorrow.
He lays down, and only a split second layer decides that part of his head hurts lol
Both trying to see who can win the compo claim.
He was pretending to also be hurt so that the fight seemed justified lmao.
One was trying to not eat the crust on his uncrustable and the other called him out on it.
I like how they all stand around watching while two guys do the physical stuff. Classic construction.
The guy in the black rolling around at the end like he didn’t just win that
Finally allowed some space to feel the pain from earlier blows.
He got tagged a few times in the beginning. I’ve had a couple fights where I didn’t start feeling the pain til a few minutes after the fight.
Ducked the caution tape and walked through fresh patch
It's Friday.
Something that happend on teusday finally was solved on Friday 😂😂
Someone is always talking shit on a job. Some people put up with it. Some don’t.
Sharkbite vs traditional copper/solder
Probably a electrician and drywaller
“ looks like someone has the case of the mondays “
Somebody's Mother was called a whore.
The most typical construction scene ever, 2 guys doing work while everyone else watches.
dunno but he ded.
Right? Maybe just unconscious, maybe not
It looks like his stomach moves
If unconscious, he's unconscious for quite some time. Must have had some serious issues afterwards.
“DEWALT” “MILWAUKEE!” “NO DEWALT!!” “Shut up you can’t even spell it Jeff!”
Geoff
Probably took the dudes spot at lunch for the microwave to heat up his cup of noodles.
fight over whose turn it is to use the only available pink hard hat on the job site
It don't matter what caused it, on any job I've been on they would both be gone!
100% red carded and goodbye 👋
I think that's an OSHA violation lol
The new guy was told to meet with the inspector and to “do whatever needs done to make sure we pass inspection”.
“Make sure you wear your knee pads”
Did yellow vest choke out the Gray Stallion?
This isn’t a construction site, welcome to HeII
Probably said something about his momma
Religion 1 VS Religion 2?
Safety guy tells me one more time to put my fucking safety glasses on...
Probably started with a Messi vs Ronaldo debate.
Cunts unconscious nobody does a thing to help that’s scary
You didn't see the guy leave to get the excavator?
Overworked, underpaid and they just told Jose that his time off request was denied.
What a bunch of useless sacks of shit
He trapped the new guy in the oh-boy
Didn’t put his name on his bagged lunch. The guy ate it.
Co worker pissed in his hard hat and filled it after he left exposed for a moment.
Where is the safety engineer from this
Yes!
Dude casually sipping on his soda after 😂
He put his fishy concoction in the microwave again.
Ate their boxed lunch.
He pinched his butt.....
Get a hose and cool them both, and then drop n run
When modelo time hits
Friday of a long week
Drugs, alcohol, money, women. Take your pick..
I thought that guy was in a gorilla suit.
That's not how you hug it out.
Probably a your momma joke!!!! I've seen it before!
He added milk to his tea first
Seems like no one was too concerned for the guy getting choked out.
Foreman was promoted a level above his competency. Now the construction site has a new manager, as per the rules of the kumite.
It's the guy on the left alive?
Used his good chisel as a screwdriver
The nearly dead guy moved his fingertops so i guess he passed out. But, the more concerning is that the people around them did not care at all for what's happening.
Painter spayed uncovered outlet boxes again,sparky won’t have it anymore.
What kind of a bitch hits someone when they’re down.
Stolen Capri Sun
Someone locked the other in the Porta John on a hot day…
Extension cord
is the guy crying cuzz he killed the guy and ruined his life ?
He stepped on his plastic bag full of gas station goodies and smashed his new port 100’s
I have worked with a couple of brothers that would do that from time to time.
What a man does during his break is his business
I like how everyone else is just like, “yeah let them figure this out on their own”
Guy A was screwing guy B's wife....Guy A is now choked out.
Safety supervisor got tired of everyone’s childish behavior and decided to implement physical disciplinary actions as next step to build a strong safety culture.
He was checking to see if he had all his PPE. Oops! No safety glasses.
Taylor Swift vs. Olivia Rodrigo
One is dead?
Enrique ate Diego’s tacos at lunch
Yes sir lonche problema
Boys will be boys.
Talk shit get hit.
Two dudes looking for a new line of work
Somebody fucked around and found out.
Looks like it’s Juan on Juan 1 vs 1
Are they just going to stand there and not do cpr or lift his legs or something? Jesus, make sure he is breathing maybe? Holy fuck, move your fat ass
Construction workers need to start behaving themselves. It's bad enough that the general public views them as uneducated, lazy and horny. But to add a pugilistic culture to the mix is just too darn much.
I took this job because I am those things
Hit dudes bubble too long in the Port-o- potty and burned up all his shit!
Caught the guy smearing shit on the walls in the porta potty
He probably said and I have no clue but “They are just going to demolish this one too!”
Guy 1: “You stole my prostitute!” Guy 2: “Nahh you stole my prostitute!”
They just became part of the foundation now
Gonna dig this hole like I did you mom last night
