Thread: What strange things did you have to do in your line of work?

Also, walked the sewage in-fall tunnel into Bondi STP.

Stood, swum in the inflow. Winched the rag monster off the flow diverter.

Stood amazed how at 2300 the flow just drops as people **** and shower less, and how at 0500 it starts to rise as Sydney does.

Sat in zero visibility working away over a hundred metres down, yet can barely stand to waterski in the Hawkesbury because you can't see the bottom/the water is just brown.

My usuals experiences
Pick up a shot gun, dildo, and tube of anal lube from under peoples beds. Also painted a brothel and worked in a house while the tenant did drug deals over my time there.

Currently (first time in 30 years) watch a smoking hot girl awaken from her bed naked at 7.20 each morn. We are working on an elevated site, she has a unit adjacent us and would be aware we are there, and chooses not to draw the curtains, we choose to watch. Is that wrong?

Is that wrong??? What's wrong with you man???? Of course it's not!!!!!

But I'm still puzzled why someone would be firing dildos around a bedroom - must be a big bore shotgun


reading all these stories I'm feeling like I'm leading a boring old life

Pump action?

I was a lifeboat man in the UK voulnteering for the RNLI (Uk version of Coastguard) based on the river Thames in London. Ive pulled a few dead bodies,animals out of the river and saved a few too including their boats....

The worst thing I have ever had to do ,although not work related, was coming across a vehicle accident. I tried to revive the young lady driving after she stopped breathing. Mouth to mouth and chest compressions. Did this until the paramedic chopper flew in. Problem was she had died before I started. Broken neck from whiplash.

I worked as a chainman for a surveyor doing base plans for parks around the harbour. Between shots he would swing the theodolite around and check all the unit block windows. If I saw his arm waving wildly I knew he had spotted something interesting.

It never failed to amaze me why people did not close a blind or window before engaging in "that sort of behaviour"

I've been to quite a few road accidents, including bus crashes. One I remember the most was when a small boat came off a trailer and went through the windscreen of an oncoming vehicle. Not pretty.

Just recently I was at a rock crushing/recycling plant. The foreman was showing me the rollers in the crusher which require lots of grease as they operate at very high temps. He explained that I should keep my hands clear.... he then promptly got the bottom corner of his Hi-Viz vest tangled in them! For some unknown reason, he had been able to remove the cover without stopping the crusher. Luckily the cloth quality wasn't too good, it tore the thing off him before he could hit the emergency stop. Could have been very nasty indeed.

Um yeah.... kept my fingies well clear!

I'm told that the 'safety lapse' has now been addressed thank God!
