Starting up an old plant
Starting an old plant is fun. Dangerous but fun. Exhausting but fun. Always running after deadlines but fun. I've heard 2 stories about urgency so far. 1) Previous boss had to put a mechanical seal in the taxi from KL to Kuantan on a Saturday. 2) Another boss had to drive from the rural to the town in Sabah to get a pump on a Sunday. My turn: 1) I have to take a 20kg motor with me on the bus on a Friday night to Kuantan. Rest and behold, i have now my own story to tell. Then I have safety stories: 1) Contractor saw a guy got killed from a site glass when tightening during air test 2) Boss saw a guy got blind on one eye when acid splash happened. My turn: 1) my vision was blurred for half a day after minimal acid HCL 33% got in and thank god I had PPE on and flushed quick enough.
