 Man, Slick, that was the most lame training session I think I've ever been part of. It looks like you were bored stiff. But, you know, at least it's done now. The first aid was pretty cool. Your life is in my hands, buddy. So, the guy said to meet him here at 6 a.m. at the North Gate, so we'll see what happens. Whoa, you're the two new hires? Yeah. Did you all have any safety training? Of course. Did they say anything about safety glasses? Well, yeah. I mean, I got these, though. Those are not safety glasses. And your part here has nothing. You have any idea what would happen if one of these trucks comes by and pops a rock? No. How about a hard hat? I got mine. That might work in a bar fight, but it's not worth beans here on mine property. How about hard-toed shoes? Uh, I don't think they mention that. Well, fellas, I don't think you're ready for work. Get back and get your safety equipment. Come on back and give it another try. All right. Slick! Man, I'm telling you, you've got to have your safety equipment on around here. Look at your eye. Eye, eye, eye, eye. Why aren't they wearing their glasses? They'll put out an eye, and that's not a lie. They may be jammies, not asses. Man, Slick, that's really bad about your eye. I mean, what do you think the odds of that happening with that rock flying up like that? Good thing the safety guy was there to patch you up, okay? But, you know, now we've got the glasses, we've got the hard hats, so, you know, let's get to work. Hopefully nothing else will happen to you today. So you two are back. Yep. You sure don't look much like miners. We've got the hard hats and stuff. Yeah, you've got your safety gear. Report over to the main office. I think the foreman's going to have you shoveling belt line. Belt line? I wanted to drive one of the big trucks. Yeah, well, first you're going to learn how to drive a shovel. All right. Let's talk about safety. It's really dumb not to wear personal protective equipment. Okay, what I want you guys to do is I want you to grab these shovels, I want you to clean up the spillage around this belt, okay? Yeah. Make sure that when you pick up the shovels and you throw it over the top of the conveyor, okay? Okay. Hey, it looks like Slick has on some loose clothing here. Uh-uh. It's probably not a good idea around these conveyors. Oh, he'll be fine. He'll watch out. I mean, if he gets caught anyway, he'll just yank his shirt off. I don't know. You're not that tough, all right? If that conveyor grabs your clothing, it's going to take you right into it. Well, all right. We'll all just have to be careful. We'll be all right. Okay. You guys be safe, all right? Yeah. Just think safety first, okay? Yeah. Safety first. Jeez. It'll yank you right in there. You fit yourself. He can help me a little bit, Slick. You know, truck drivers don't have to put up with this. They have air conditioning, stereo. You know, Slick, I can't reach all the stuff that's underneath this belt. I have to take off the grate real quick. You wait right there. Can you stay away from the roller zone with that baggy shirt? A man to keep you out. Conveyors are dangerous. Don't get caught in them or you could lose more than an arm. Man, Slick, I'm so sorry about that. I didn't mean to leave the guard like that. I didn't think you'd suck your arm in. I thought the shirt would come off. I didn't think that guy was telling the truth. Okay. That hurt. Okay. I think we got you all stitched up. That baggy shirt was a bad idea, so I got you another one. This should fit you better. We should be all right, okay? Uh-huh. What happened here? Looks like your partner got a little beat up. That's all right. We got him patched up and back together. We'll be fine. It was nothing. All right. You okay, huh? Yeah. All right. What I want you guys to do next is I want you to go up there and grease that head pulley, all right? All the way at the top. Okay. Okay. So there's a couple of safety things I want you to remember about conveyors. All right? Sure. I'm sure that they went over this with you and your training. Yeah, probably. I just want to remind you again though, all right? Uh-huh. So number one is before you get in and around this conveyor, you need to lock it, tag it, and test it out, okay? Okay. Make sure this has been de-energized. Okay. The other thing I want you to remember is that there's a pull cord, emergency pull cord on the other side that should you get in an emergency and you need it, you can pull that cord, all right? Okay. But again, if you lock it, tag it, test it, you shouldn't need that emergency pull cord, okay? All right. I want you to walk up the belt, but I want you to make sure you have a fall protection harness on, all right? You know what that is, right? No. Okay, that's just a belt with a lanyard. Oh, that's what these cables are for. That's what these cables are for. Okay. Okay. Yeah, no problem. All right. Before you climb up there though, I want to make sure that the reversing mechanism up there on that head pulley is engaged so it doesn't roll back on you. Okay. All right? All right. Let me go over here and show you where to lock this out and tag it, all right? Okay. Where the stop button's at. I'm going to show you how to do a proper lockout tag out. Okay. The first thing I want you to do is take that hash, take that lock, take this tag, all right? The first thing we've got to do is we've got to notify everybody that we're going to shut these conveyors off. Okay. I've already done that for you. All right. Do you remember the meter reading that we saw over there where we had power on the circuit still? Yeah. Okay. Next thing I want you to do is go ahead and shut the power off. Okay. Okay. Go ahead and apply your hash. Get it here for you, right there. Okay. Go ahead and put your lock on there. Good. Lock it. Put that key in your pocket. Always keep that key with you. Okay. Never let anybody have it. All right? Go ahead and put your name and the date on your tag. Good. Go ahead and attach it to the lock. Very good. Let's go back over to the control room. We'll verify that the power's been shut off with the meter. Mm-hmm. And then we'll hit the start button and see if everything is isolated. Oh, yeah. Okay. All right. This is where you shut the conveyor off. Okay. I want you to make sure that you lock it out, tag it out, test it out. Okay. And make sure that you don't have two electrical sources powering this conveyor. Make sure that it's not fed from two directions. All right. Okay? Okay. Yeah, no problem. We got it. All right. You guys be safe. Yes, sir. Good lord. Okay. Well, he wants us to grease his head pulley, Slick. You know, I don't know about all those fall arresters and backstop and whatever the heck he's talking about. He told us how to turn it on and off. So I'll just give you a ride up there. And you climb on up and just give me a holler when you get to the top, give me a holler. All right. Hey, just hang on right there. Are you okay? We'll get your toes if you can hear me. All right. Just stay there. We'll get someone to come get you. Slick, man. I'm so sorry about that. You know, I was going to hit the button. You know, I wouldn't do this to you on purpose, but you got to admit, man, she was hot. So, oh, don't give me that look. You would have done the same thing. Careful. All right. Well, these scrapes aren't too bad. Good thing we paid attention in the first aid section. There you two guys are. Gee, man. Hey, the guy just told me over there about the crusher, about that little escapade you just had over there on the conveyor. Oh, nobody got killed. Lucky. You're lucky nobody got killed. You know, you violated everything I told you about safety. You violated everything they told you in the training about safety. I know. I think it's time for you guys to move on. Let's go. You think you're firing us? Yes, I am. All right, Slick, let's go. Riding conveyors is dumb and dangerous. Be sure you know where the lockout tagout box is and use it. Man, Slick, I can't believe we got fired yesterday. Man, we didn't even do anything that wrong. You got beat up a little. I'm sorry about that, but, you know, I'll take care of you today. Don't worry about it. This place has a lot more cool stuff to do. You boys, the new hires. Yes, sir. Man, I sure hope you work better than you look. He's a little accident prone, but we'll be all right. Yeah, I can tell. Well, according to your papers, it says you got your new minor training. That's right. All right, what do we got here? Looks good. Ted and Slick, huh? Okay, well, I hope you understand how to work safely. You know, we can't use any dummies. I think we'll be okay. I tell you what, young man, I need you to report over to the pit foreman over yonder, and I need you to be especially careful. There's a lot of heavy traffic. All right, you guys be extra careful. All right, thanks. Be extra careful. Come on, it's just trucks. Oh boy, I don't know about these guys. They'll be burning rubber in the hot day sun. Hot day sun. They ain't looking for the loaders. Near them big old motors, they'll be coming around the stockpile when they come. Moving vehicles are hazardous to pedestrians. Make sure operators can see you or you'll become a target. Man, Slick, I'm so sorry about that. I thought he saw us get clear. What are the odds of that happening? Oh. What the heck's going on around here? Didn't I tell you guys to be careful around all this heavy traffic? Yeah. What's wrong with your partner? Is he all right? He banged his neck up a little bit, but he'll be all right. Oh, my gosh. I think I need to cover a few things with you guys. We got to cover some safety points. Okay, you guys, listen up. When you're working around this heavy equipment, you've got to make sure that you're seen by the operators of these heavy equipment. And you've got to listen. You've got to listen for these backup alarms. And you've got to stay out of all these restricted areas. And when you're working around this heavy equipment, you've got to watch out for these pinch points. That's what that warning sign says. You can be cutting up if you're not paying attention. And another thing, leaning up against this tire isn't a very good idea. Don't you know that those rims can blow up and get you? Come on, let's get out of here. You guys need to pay more attention to what you're doing. Oh. I told you something's going to happen. Standing by inflated tires The boys are surely thoughtless Expanding air and hardened steel Might make them cautious Large high-pressure tires can explode Be careful around them Man, it's like I'm really sorry about your leg Those tires really are dangerous But it's okay, it's just a little cut You'll be alright There you guys are I reported that accident Hey, come away from that front of that vehicle Come over here, I've got to talk to you guys You know you need to be more careful as to what you're doing You need to pay more attention You can't be in front of that vehicle That operator can't see you Even though the truck is so big It still has a lot of blind spots And any time that a vehicle is on an incline It can still roll You can't be in front of those vehicles You boys need to pay a little bit more attention Alright Alright, well go ahead and go over to the pit Form in there and get to work over there Alright It's a long way to that pit I don't know about you, but I'm tired of getting run over Let's just hop in this truck and get over there They're going to have to see us if we're in one of these things Hey, what do you guys think you're doing? Just going to head over to the pit You're not going in this truck, you haven't been test trained Well, it's just a truck, come on, it's only like half mile No, I don't think so You know what, you boys Jason are going to cut it in this outfit You just don't have a safety frame of mind Oh, you're firing us Come on, let's go Come on, Slick Never operate equipment or vehicles you aren't trained on It's dangerous to you and everyone around you Man, Slick, I can't believe you got us fired yesterday Well, let's see, this place should work out a little better for us Let's check our gear before we go in and make sure we don't get fired off the bat this time We've got our safety glasses We have steel-toed boots We both got our hard hats We've got our hearing protection We even have respirators if we need them Alright, I think we're ready, let's go to work Well, it's almost time to come here and wait for the supervisor over here, Slick I'm sure today's going to be a lot easier on you Well, they said we're going to be lurking with electrical So, you know, probably not a lot of sun time So, we'll just have to go over here and check them out See what he's doing Well, I don't see a supervisor How long are we going to wait in the shade where it's cooler until he gets here? Hey, what are you guys doing in here? Get out of there My God, you want to get electrocuted? It's three face power, very dangerous Get over here Do you know anything about electrical safety? We did lock-out tag-out yesterday That's good, lock-out tag-out is very important People get killed every year Electrical accidents There's a few things we've got to go over Since you're going to be doing a lot of shoveling here There's a lot of cables on the ground You better know where these cables are when they're under the dirt It's three-phase power You'll be a crispy critter you hit one of these babies You never want to walk on them, you certainly never drive over them You can split them on the inside, causes a short Splices? Avoid splices that are in the water Let your supervisor know anytime you see a splice cable in the water There's a lot of electrical lines overhead You have to be careful about them, too Of course, the only electrical work you guys are going to be doing Is changing a light bulb now and then I can handle that Not your regular 110 light bulb These are light bulbs that are up high You have to get in a man-basket, tie-off, task-trade Speaking of training, it doesn't sound like you paid attention to your training I really don't need you at this plant Why don't you go find the truck boss? Oh, alright Zap, zap, zap, boom-dee-ay Zap, zap, zap, boom-dee-ay They'll find that 20 amps Will more than fill their pants Zap, zap, zap, boom-dee-ay Zap, zap, zap, boom-dee-ay They'll find that that old splice Won't treat them very nice Zap, zap, zap, boom-dee-ay Zap, zap, zap, boom-dee-ay It won't take many volts To prove that they're both dope Electricity can kill you Be cautious around cables, generators, and power sources Well, look, I didn't see the truck boss down in the yard Maybe we can spot him from up here Oh, wow, cool, check that out Uh-oh Well, hey, I'll tell you what, you stay here and look for him I'm going to go back down to the bottom and see if he's in the yard now, alright? Take care No, no, no, no, no, no He'll turn through the screw With the greatest of ease Our daring young hero Will soon get the squeeze He'll twist and he'll turn And he'll fill with desire For the safety he learned In his class for new hired students Slick, hang on, man Slick, hang on, we'll get you down, we'll get you down Oh, man What happened there? You probably should have tied off But you know what, no one saw that except us So let's just keep that between you and me I got you all patched up here So let's go find that truck boss Falling apart, Slick Fall protection can save your life Use it when working in high locations Well, Slick, I still don't see that truck boss But let's get up here and maybe we can see him from here Yeah, this is pretty high up I'll tell you what, you look over this way And I'll head over to the other pile over there See if I can see him That was a really close one Gentlemen, what are you doing here on the property? We're looking for the truck boss, have you seen him? Well, you found her You're the truck boss? You got a problem with that? Slick, no, no Why don't you gentlemen step away here from the surge pile Got a few things to explain to you Okay Let me tell you a little bit about surge piles Draws down from the bottom And it mirrors itself on top with a cone You also may form a bridge Material that actually looks solid, it is not It then draws itself up through the conveyor It's also put down with a little bit of moisture And as it starts to dry out It forms the angle of repose You know what the angle of repose is, right? No Well, that's the natural angle the material wants to take And as it starts to dry out The tow actually may slough out So even when it looks solid It could move just like that Sounds like what happened to you, Slick What happened to Slick? Well we were kind of up on the edge walking along You were up on the surge pile Just for a minute Oh no, no, no, no That cannot happen Do you have any idea if you got sucked down through What would have occurred? You would have been completely engulfed by material And you know how you die? A slow suffocating death Nothing happened, we're okay No, no You, out of here, both of you Hike your butts out You're gonna fire me? For climbing on a pile of dirt? A pile of dirt that could move just like that This is your lucky day, sir You are fired Out But we just got here Leave Surge piles can bridge over Hiding danger Don't walk or drive over them Well, Slick, we've been fired From every single mine we worked at Man, we better not screw up today Do you believe it, Slick? We've made it half a day And we haven't been fired yet More importantly, you haven't been injured It's lunchtime, man I need someplace shady Because I am hot Let's head over here Oh, so, Slick I got a couple things for lunch here Two of the basic food groups Sugar and caffeine So, let me know if you want anything Crikey Slick, look at this It's the wild, the racist North American Timber Atlas And he's a beauty Careful now, he's angry He's kind of angry We've invaded his home territory So just be calm Oh, come on I'm just playing around with you Take a joke, man Hey, what are you guys doing over here? This horseplay, you don't do that around On a mine property Well, I'm just giving him a hard time He's afraid of snakes What are you guys doing sitting right here? Shady, man, I'm eating lunch Look above your head See this crack above you? Yeah That could come down any time on you Oh, okay Well, I mean, it hasn't moved all day The vibration of a loader coming by Could make it come down So we need to find a different place for shade To move your body, because it's already slough Coming down Whoa, your body just got nailed there With a big rock Slick, man, I told you to get out of the way Eye walls are very dangerous They can fail without warning Killing or injuring anyone nearby Stay away See, high walls ain't a very good place to be laying They could come down on you at any time And Jesus, hey Did you just hear anything we just discussed About the high wall? Well, what am I supposed to do, man? I didn't want to get run over by the loader We ran into one of those yesterday Now you're against the high wall And a heavy piece of equipment with no place to go Let's get your lunch Let's find a safer place for you to take your lunch All right I couldn't help noticing your lunch you brought today there You need that caffeine You're very good for working out in the sun all day For your lunch, you need more nutritious lunch Than just the candy bar You really get no nutrition value there If you have to work all day Yeah You need to really get a better lunch You need to have water on a day like today And that caffeine will really do much for you Make you thirsty Yeah, thanks, though I know you boys were just looking for a shady spot But the high wall is not the place for a shady And this loader ain't You need to stay away from tires and buckets Basically, you're the one that should be in charge Of your own safety You need to look out for yourself and others Good luck You're gonna need it Thanks Oh, jeez, Slick, we better get back to work, man Before they come looking for us I don't know about you, but I'm still hungry No machine operates well without proper fuel Neither can you Good nutrition and plenty of water are important Man, Slick, I am so hot I can't even think Let's take my shirt off for a while and cool off Maybe I'll start on my tan Hey, you boys shouldn't be out here without your shirt on Sun's pretty strong It could get sunburn, heat stroke When you work outside, you gotta protect yourself from the Heat and the cold Be aware of your environment, look around There could be bugs, snakes You may be allergic to something, bees or whatever You need to be aware of where your surroundings If thunderstorms come up, you need to get away from the equipment If a dust storm hits, you need to protect yourself from that Or get out of it, put a dust mask on But right now, you need to get in the shade And get your shirt on and get cooled down Sounds like a good idea Working outside can be hazardous Protect yourself from heat and cold, storms and harmful critters Well, Slick, no sunburns for us But I still need to cool off This pond looks like a good place Let's cool off here Let's see that half-gainer with a twist you're always talking about Oh, no My buddy swam out in the water To cool down was his only plea The only plea The branches and shrubs Neath the water I'm thinking that he failed to see Bring back, bring back Oh, bring back my buddy To me, to me Bring back, bring back Oh, bring back my buddy To me Oh, Slick Man, why didn't you tell me you didn't know how to swim? I don't know Geez So I guess all that talk about being an Olympic diver was just bar talk, huh? Uh-oh What are you guys doing in that pond? Just cooling off You guys need to get out of there Don't you know it's against company policy to be swimming in that pond? Well, we're just trying to cool off, man He's all right, we got him out, okay? You know how many people drown in mine ponds every year? No Ain't no way you're gonna float without a floatation device With all that gear you got on there Well, we just went in real quick I mean, he just kind of got wet and we pulled him out He's all right Some places mine underwater, ponds like this Off of the dredge You gotta be careful when you're on a dredge You gotta make sure you've got your floatation devices on And watch out for cables They start whipping around, sometimes they break They can hurt you bad Well, you know, I don't know He just went in barely, he'll dry off, we'll be all right Okay, right now you need to get back to work It's almost quitting time Okay People drown in mine ponds every year Stay safe, stay away from them What a week We got fired from three different places Before we finally realized that staying alive Isn't easy in a place like this We should have paid more attention in our training classes I thought these guys were putting it on Just because Emsha makes them do it But it's a really good idea We had to learn the hard way What a couple of dummies But now we know enough to realize That moving vehicles can kill you Conveyors can rip you to pieces Electricity can barbeque you Stockpiles can bury you If you're working up high Then you better tie off And pit walls can drop rocks on you We also know enough to have the proper safety gear Including respirators Before we come onto the property And enough water to make it through the day We know enough to protect ourselves from the weather Whether it's hot or cold Thunderstorms or wind And to make sure we have protection against critters If we need it We know that if we want to go swimming This isn't the place to do it Well buddy, it's been a tough week And you know, I'm kind of thinking This can be a dangerous job If you don't keep paying attention Hold up there a minute Looks like you guys had a tough week Yeah I've been doing some checking And I've found that you've been fired From every mine in the county I've learned something every place we were at You know, have you guys thought about Taking up a new line of work? Well, Slick, we could always try underground mining I think that would be a good idea No, no, no, no Good luck to you Dude Well, Slick, no sunburns for us But I still need to cool off This lake looks like a good place It's a pond, not a lake, it's a pond We could cool off in this lake right here, man Why didn't you tell me you didn't know how to swim, man? He doesn't sink, he floats What are you doing here on the property? Well, we're looking for the trust But it's just like it's a bull Okay Yeah Ready? Any bolts to prove that they're a bull joke You guys need to pay more attention to what you're doing That sign tells you You can get squashed in half here If you're not paying attention You can get chopped in half First thing we want to do is just notify everybody That we've shut down this equipment And let them know that we've... Let's try that again And as that moisture starts to Draw out of the material It dries out and you'll... What happened to Slick? Well, he was... He kind of slid on there and So it went up underneath him So he was probably getting drawn down Oh, son Fire him That's good That's very important People get killed every year with electrical hazards Electrical... Electrocution The lock-out tag-out is very important People get killed every year with electrical... Electrocution Basically, you're the one that's... Basically, you're the one... Basically, you're the one that needs to be aware of your own safety Take care of your surroundings You need to be aware of where your surroundings are The thunderstorms come up You need to get away from the equipment You know, maybe you guys might think about... Take...
