Current Strip / Safety Posters

« Last post by Baradium on December 10, 2016, 02:46:34 AM »

I collect International (the company, also known as IH or IHC) memorabilia and vehicles.    One of the things I have is a deck of playing cards.    The unique thing about them is that they were safety cards given to plant workers.  The face side of each card has a different safety cartoon on it (as well as indicating which card it is of course).    I don't know how much it'd cost to print playing cards, but I do believe I'd rather like a set of chicken wings playing cards, safety or otherwise.

Alternative protein powder for muscle gain is here (lower quality video)

I can tell you that cows are definitely smarter than they look and can turn on you at any moment when your back is turned so be careful.

something I might be able to do seasonally? or is it year round, have to move there type of job?

There are seasonal jobs, but the ones I was thinking about are year round but rotation type (1st-15th or 16th-30th each month and you can swap out with others).  They like to hire people who live there but you are able to jumpseat and commuting is common, so you could live anywhere you wanted on your off days.  Housing is provided in the bush when you are on shift for that type of work.

I only just noticed this post. I know that the Strassers have come up with a powerpoint that had a great image for regulations. Some poking around should help find the rest. The entire archive is not kept on the website, presumably to encourage sales of their books.

I digress. Let's take a look.

Okay, here's where you'll find the powerpoint:

If I have more time, I'll poke around later. I'm on break in class.
