Things you've seen at work (pictures)

[Corbs1234]

Hi Everyone.
After trawling through various My Ride threads and seeing the level of dedication and the amounts of money spent on some of these cars,
i can only assume some people out there work some pretty tough and diverse jobs...
With camera phones nowadays, as soon as people see something funny or interesting (say at their place of work) they take a picture, with the intention of showing their mates later.
I thought it'd be great to set up a thread for pictures that people have taken at their place of work. Whether it be funny pictures, interesting or just plain strange.
I know working on our farm, some of the things i see (and later regret not taking a picture of) really amaze me, but i have got a couple which i'll throw on here later.

So if you have a picture, attach that to your reply, along with a description, explaining what actually happened etc
So yes, lets just see how this thread turns out.
Cheers, Corbz.

this just happened at my work:


nuir spec GTR, 80k of pure mushiness huzzah!!!

[TVR-190]

It was funny for me cause i just stood there and watched the new guy clean it up.

oh well. no use crying over 13L of spilt milk

I had this truck come to our place today for a load of lucerne hay.
after following the thread 'ricer of the day' for a while, when i saw the huge spoiler on this truck i immediately thought...RICE...
But i asked the driver about it, and apparently its a Peterbilt truck (same make as optimus prime on the Transformers movie lol)
The owner/driver imported it from the US, lengthened the chassis, mucked around with the engine (exactly how im not sure, he didnt explain too much, all i know is its about a 16litre diesel with turbos twice the size of stock), and now the truck is capable of 240kph with a 30ton load (thanks to a tall 3.9:1 diff and tall gear ratios), which makes me realise why it has the spoiler....

few old pics ive managed to find lol.

the ferrari was at my old work place in the storage warehouse.



the lambo was at my current workplace.



old pics now though. i leave my phone in mydesk at work so i dont take a lot of random snaps with it.

Back when I worked at KFC.
My mate dared me to drink 10 sunrise drinks... i did.
That equated to 100grams of sugar

[Rolla_Rolla']

[Dum*P*ster]

[TVR-190]

coke is the easiest end to build, use some milk crates to dummy up the back and your set.

thats cheating. mine was entirely coke

[ashbox]

that would have been fun for you.
i felt sorry for the guys at my work who had to build and fill the dev long life milk when it was 95c.

If we still have the stock out back, i'll take a pic of all the throw away stuff we have, stores only been open 10 months mind you

[Endrew]

Kmart > Coles

Best thing Ive seen would be watching some newby cutting open a bag of bean bag beans with a knife, then busting 1 packet. These are 100L bags. Poor prick had to run around sweeping them up with a dustpan lol, what a wonderful way to start your 3rd shift.

A mate showed me a pic on his phone of one the other day. He had his g/f on his shoulders and she could only just see in the back lol. Was a beast!

[S.T.K.E]

This could become a very cool thread

I used to work in a Fish Department at a Super IGA.

First pic is the head of a Sweetlip AFTER i had filleted it. Just thing how big the rest of him was if the head is 2.5KG



This is the largest tiger prawn i have ever seen. And i have Big Hands



Oh and as well the forklift stuck where i currently work at the moment. (Note my Brilliant idea of using a Peice of Chep Pallet under the front wheels, which worked very nicely)

[keza87]

Came back to work after our Christmas party to find this out the front!

The trailer didn't hitch correctly and as the driver turned right it unhitched and rolled over due to a dip in the concrete.

Ended up taking a good 4 hours and 2 cranes to get the trailer upright and out of the way.
Trailer and goods were written off.

Quite funny to watch as one of our security cameras caught the whole thing.

[melissasd]

Ok I won't go into detail...

But

Stupid woman driver..


And then..

Stupid male driver haha..


Who knows why the female driver decided to leave the track through the creek and make her own... and the second picture was taken at the end of the wet season and it was just wet everywhere. This was when I was working up north WA on a cattle station for a few years.

[MikesCalais]

None of that is the reason for the spoiler. Its to deflect the air above the trailer for better fuel consumption.

[hakhawk]
