Got a callout to a diesel pump fault, its a motor mounted within the pipe that is sat on a plastic diesel container, this is a stone cutter yard and has alot of staff wondering around moving and loading stone; now with faulting this motor and the tank missing its filler cap im getting lets say covered up to the elbows in the stuff, as i have motor in hand and turn around i find a folk-lift driver asking me do i need a hand with smoke in gob.... i said im covered in diesel and you are smoking :nono: .... he then throws smoke at my feet and stubbs it..
Truely mortified i am, luckily i know diesel isn't that volatile but understand how it only takes one idiot and Bye Bye world... No smoking signs missing/ no naked flames etc too, he smoking while working, Im going to refit with alot more caution and rip a new hole out of the management after job!... i can see me not been popular with the yard lads next time i go but still in shock at this idiot.
