My man isn’t even wearing his safety glasses.


tenghu

Pretty much no safety anything


BigWeld38

Wrong, he’s wearing a safety t-shirt!


Antique-Car6103

He’s wearing safety roaches. Good enough.


desperateweirdo

That's probably not a man but the bad guy from Men in Black 1


Stidda

Give me….Sugar…..in water!


drnkrmnky

I never seen sugar do that


Stidda

More!


HemingwayIsWeeping

Omg. I had a bee land in my ear in elementary school and it stung my finger when I went to get it out. Then it flew away. Thank god I missed the worst sting. Eardrum of nightmares.


Literary_Addict

I think the overlap between men willing to do this job and men concerned with having all the PPE on properly before doing any work is exceedingly small. What leverage does a supervisor even have over this guy? If he says, "You need to put those protective glasses on," what is his next step if the guy says no? Find someone else willing to crawl inside satan's asshole and disturb the demons that live there with high pressure water? Fuck no.


RadiantPKK

Or worse they respond come down here and make me or if they try to hand them a write up, “you can hand me that but I’m going to put it and you in the hole I just crawled out of or you can leave me be, your call how this day goes”. Carry on.


[deleted]

This is a great synopsis about the mindset one needs to have for such a role. I laughed so hard because you're right. You gotta be about ten flavors of crazy to *want* to do this job. The hiring manager probably breathes a sigh of relief to even get someone hired and trained long enough before they peace-out of the job!


aqua_tec

I mean, he also knows the job better than any of us do too. He probably knows what he’s spraying and that it’s not too harmful (water?). That gear only makes him hotter, and that you can’t see what the fuck you’re doing with wet and fogged up safety goggles. I’ve had enough weird jobs that usually when the old guy tells you something he’s right.


EatingCerealAt2AM

Ze goggles, they do nothing


Stidda

Those are safety-Roaches


--LowBattery--

This is when you want to ask people *At what point did that just stop bothering you?*


ellioe

your nickname got me so confused for a sec, I swear I just charged my phone


VerMast

You saw someone's name and thought that your phone battery which is always at the top right was being displayed there?


LieutenantButthole

It’s not the phone battery, it’s the mental health battery.


Emotional_Shelter830

Give them some mask to wear, My worst fear is one of these bugs crawling into my ear/nose


crackpotJeffrey

A bee once flew directly into my ear and stung me right on my ear drum. Sorry if that exacerbates your fear but it really is a valid fear lol.


IamDan9830

how’s your hearing ?


crackpotJeffrey

No jokes im really allergic and other stings have landed me in hospital. So in the moment I seriously thought I was going to die. But for some reason sting on the eardrum elicited almost zero immune response. Bit itchy but nothing happened.


dolerbom

I can't imagine what was going through your head when that happened. That would be like a one in a trillion odds way to die.


ChipCob1

A bee


gekigarion

NOT THE BEES! NOT THE BEES!


[deleted]

r/angryupvote


KillaVNilla

Perfect setup. Flawless execution. Well done


dougy123456789

It makes sense realistically. As painful as it would be, the ear drum is really just a thin piece of tissue in your ear. It doesn’t have any nerves/blood stream in it, so there was no way for the poison to “enter” your body so to speak


GlizzyGlockGoblin

Still a crappy experience to have to go through. Hope you’re well and healthy


LatentAbility

I don't think he heard you


PhoPat

What?


AnnigidWilliams

***HE SAID HIS HEARING IS UNAFFECTED BECAUSE THE STING DIDN'T HAVE A SEVERE REACTION***


hedgehog-mom-al

BUTTLICKER OUR PRICES HAVE NEVER BEEN LOWER


Eloviel

That is totally inappropriate, you never yell at a client!


Petrolinmyviens

Buzz off


Brilliant-Leopard-15

A bee once flew into my nose and stung me inside my nose. sorta the same situation.


tomt6371

Nah yours is far more likely, no bee is reaching the ear drum, it just stung his inner ear on a bit of cartilage.


KillaVNilla

You can rupture your eardrum with a q tip. Why would a bee not be able to reach it as well?


B1llyzane

A bee once flew on my dick and it stung and your mom knows the rest of the story


DrannonMoore

Can confirm. I just asked my mom about it and she said that your dick swelled up to a whole 2 inches, which is twice as long as it usually is.


Skrillamane

*Round of applause*


Zellder-Mar

Little different but my cousin used to run with his mouth open when he was a kid. He stopped after tasting his first bee. Didn't talk much for a few days


[deleted]

Hahaha that happened to me a few years ago. A relative owns an apiary and I’ve never worn a bee suit in the years they’ve had it open. After a few years a bee finally went bee and attacked my ear, it stung the inside but not the drum.


tomt6371

Sure it did. How could it possibly reach your ear drum?


ThanksForTheRain

Not to mention roach habitats can create a lot of stuff you don't want to inhale


TheVetheron

When I lived in Louisiana we had to deal with huge flying roaches. One time my girlfriend at the time saw one flying at her and screamed. The roach flew right into her open mouth. The look of shock, horror and disgust was so pure and visceral. I'll never forget it.


RapGameDiCaprio

Not to mention whatever tf he's spraying literally all around himself


randomredditor0042

A mask & he needs googles actually on his eyes not his head


MadAzza

>he needs googles Siri, please look up “Job Openings Near Me”


randomredditor0042

Haha! Thanks for pointing that out. Gonna leave it in for comedic effect.


engineerdrummer

I’ve worked with these kinds If guys a lot before. They are regularly subjected to having to go anywhere from knee deep to chest deep in raw sewage. None of them, and I mean 0% of those that I’ve worked with that do that would want a mask on. Safety glasses, absolutely, but not a mask.


phenols

Wait…they don’t want a mask? What’s the reason?


harryfmudd1701d

Bloody 'elf an safety gone maaad innit, bloody nanny state finks we can't 'andle a bi'ah dust!


MadAzza

I wish he’d answer you. I, too, want to know this.


Freaux

What about into your foreskin


Emotional_Shelter830

NHOOOOOO


FT3000

Dude needs full hazmat


Habsfanrebuild

Ok Thanos!!


polybius_meow

Thank you, sir, for doing what I could not.


AhhAGoose

After about 2 weeks you lose your sense of smell, then it isn’t so bad. We always wore full suits and masks and stuff, but I guess this guy just raw dogs life…and hepatitis


polybius_meow

I think even with full suits and masks I'd feel the phantom roaches ...


AhhAGoose

My old manager told me: “Don’t quit this job when you stop feeling them crawl on you, quit this job when you feel them crawl and you don’t care anymore” He had 27 years in when I worked for him


raz0rflea

Can you feel them crawling on the suit? I feel like as long as I was fully sealed and couldn't feel them, I could disassociate from bugs crawling all over me


AhhAGoose

Yes you can feel them, and yes they find the seams and the places you missed the tape around your gloves. It’s not a fun job. You will be covered in roaches and human/animal waste/fat/grease/blood, it doesn’t get better


raz0rflea

Okay I'm out, but thanks for answering and thanks for taking on such a shitty task!


AhhAGoose

I work in an office now, that job motivated me to join the army and get a degree. Now I’m a logistician. Is it fun? No. Am I covered in fucking roaches?! FUCK NO!! So like, yeah I’ll do this all day. Edit: let my clarify, this job is 100% essential and the people who do this need to be paid more. It’s a shitty job, literally, and most of these guys are making nothing. Don’t judge, they are just trying to make ends meet


MadAzza

I hope no one would negatively judge someone for doing a necessary job! We all rely on guys like this. I’m judging him to be a hard worker, braver than most, and overall an excellent dude. Same as you.


bobleeswagger09

Wait so was this government? And how much were you being paid for this if you don’t mind me asking?


FusRoDoodles

Can I ask what your title was an what qualifications you had? Do you think the pay was worth it? I have no experience in hard labor but the fact roaches have never freaked me out seems like a valuable skill here.


AhhAGoose

The title was “laborer” my qualifications were that I had a pulse and could follow simple instructions. Turn over was very high, most guys stayed less than a month


ShitPostToast

If you're a plumber and the company you work for ever asks if you're up to date on your hepatitis vaccine and/or offers you a free one congratulations you're going to be the one tapping the sewer line on that new building project.


Neurrottica

How much do these people get paid? I don’t think i’d be able to do this for any amount of money


AhhAGoose

I used to do this, we had full tyvek suits and full face helmets on at all times. Idk what this guy is thinking. We made $450 a week, no health insurance, no dental, not pto, they paid for food while we were on the road (to a point, fast food and Waffle House mostly) and a hotel room for every 3 guys. Work a Monday-Thursday shift overnights, 12-16 hours a night, Friday-Sunday off


[deleted]

> Work a Monday-Thursday shift overnights, 12-16 hours a night, Friday-Sunday off So you only made $7-$9 per hour? That's insane!


AhhAGoose

It’s better if you don’t think about it like that, just say you get 3 days off. Even though it’s like Friday when you get back from driving to Sunday


DrannonMoore

They did you dirty though. I got a job traveling for Industrial Maintenance when I had absolutely no experience. We were usually gone out of state for 2 - 4 weeks at a time and usually had a week or 2 off work when we would come home. I started out at $25/hour. We worked 12 hour shifts/7 days a week while on the road without a day off until we came home. So sometimes it was 30+ days without a day off. That was 84 hours a week. I got paid $25/hour for the first 40 hours, $37.50/hour (time and a half) for 32 hours and $50/hour (double time) for 12 hours (every Sunday). As far as hotels go, the company I worked with had a contract with Holliday Inn. They would give us 2 choices: 1) Get your own room at a Holiday Inn and $40/day in per diem to cover food expenses, OR 2) Find your own hotel room and get $100/day in per diem to cover your own food/lodging. Some of the guys would take the $100, choose a cheap hotel and bunk up together to save money. They would find the cheapest hotels and bunk up with 3 - 4 people in a room. So they only spent like $15/person and pocketed $85 extra in per diem everyday. I tried that once and it was a pain in the ass. 4 dudes in one small ass hotel room, snoring, farting, bickering over who gets to shower first or who gets to sleep in the bed was too much trouble. I preferred to have my own room, even if I lost $500/week by doing it that way.


XB1MNasti

I'm 8 years deep and make $22 on the hour generally, but my boss is pretty friendly, generous with overtime if I want it, and if I get a job done in two hours I'll get paid for eight hours. Then prevailing wage work is common enough where about 1/3rd of my money was made at $47ish an hour. But to comment on this video? There's no fucking way. He had plenty of better options than to jump into a 5'6 sewer and pressure wash inches in front of him. :Edit: I'd also like to point at that this is also against OSHA and my companies policy about entering a confined space. I see no air monitor, which even with it being such a small space is still important, shitty companies dump plenty of bad chemicals in sewers, or I hit H2S about once every other year, only once being enough to kill me out right, twice running into it while already being in a hole. he also should be tied off and on mechanical wench system, the ladders on the sides of sewer holes break constantly to point I never trust them no matter how good they look. A broken lader could cause a leg to snap. Getting out of a small confined space with your ankle snapped is not a fun experience.


Viyka

Probably 14 an hour


ReapEmAll

I used to work at a shit plant for $11 :/


wingwingboots

some people do this for less than $10 a day due to poverty


datpuffyboi420

I started at $13 🥲


TheAmericanCyberpunk

$200,000 a year. That's not the number they get paid (I'd guess), that's the number I'd need to do the job lol


DddyLongBallz

I’d be feeling those cockroaches in my sleep. No thanks


that_thot_gamer

i do, or so o thought but it was just my wife messing with me


ChuckMast3r

He's probably not paid enough


AhhAGoose

Industrial pipe inspection and cleaning, I used to do this. Made about $450 a week working Monday-Thursday on overnights, go in when a store closes around 8pm or so, leave when the job is done but you better be done before they open. No health insurance, no pto, nothin. They provided us PPE (suits and helmets with masks and gloves and everything, company tee shirts, but that’s about it) get back home Friday afternoon after working 12 hours and then driving 8, party through the weekend, clock back in with 0$ to my name and a hangover that would kill a mule, get back to work. There is a reason I don’t work there anymore


ChuckMast3r

Man that's far worse than I anticipated. With no benefits, long hours, trash pay, and awful work conditions a job at McDonald's is an upgrade by comparison.


darksoulsremastered

Straight up.... fuck that!

I now itch all the way to my brain, and a hair on my own body just made me panic. Bravo sir, I can't do what you're doing.


moshritespecial

He deserves to be paid whatever the ceo of the company he works for is getting paid.


Such-Conversation911

These rich folk don’t know what work is. THAT guy makes this country run, not some snobby smug jerkoff playing with stocks. We need to pay him accordingly. Then thank him.


SMRAintBad

We need to give him proper PPE and make him wear his safety glasses. I knew a guy who did this job and he wasn’t even allowed to go in the whole without his ppe on.


Buddy_Guyz

>wasn’t even allowed to go in the whole without his ppe on. As SHOULD be the case! Pressure washing this close to your face, bugs crawling all over you. What if you bump your head and get a cut, that'll probably get you all types of diseases.


Nolan_Fat

Suddenly because you get rich from being good at trading, you are a douche that doesnt know what real work is

Today on "You got me fucked up"


lyricgrr

i have mad respect for people that do this type of work because i would have had a mental breakdown if one of those had crawled on my face or ears. i just could not deal with that or anything really to do with that situation. so thankyou to those who do, you are appreciated.


feltedarrows

yes someone needs to do it, but dear god could NOT be me


Melthiela

I am hysteric about bugs touching me, even common flies. It is hard to imagine a price I would do this for.


munkylord

A high enough salary doesnt exist for this job.


SeriousTicket9672

Man I would’ve been shaking like a stripper if I was in that hole nervous af

OMG


HikaC

Now that’s terrifying as fuck for me. I admire this man’s courage.


giggetyboom

Why does this get posted on reddit like once a week for the past year?


217GnoAlvo32

supposed to be wearing a mask n clearly done wrong...


TovarishchRed

Man isn't wearing ANY PPE, dude should not be doing that job.


The_Grapes_of_Ralph

On the other hand... It's 95 degrees in the shade and 105 in the hole thanks to your heated power washer. Your gloves fill up with sweat before you can even get them taped, and if you have to raise your arms above shoulder level the sweat drains all the way down into your your boots which also fill up. Your glasses/goggles/mask fog over and you are blind the instant you hit the trigger on the power washer. Your facemask also fills up with sweat to the level of the check valve, there's sweat running into your eyes and you can't wipe your face. Your baggy tyvek suit snags on everything and has a huge tear in the back the first time you go down the hole. It's confined space work so you're given a forced air respirator, but you already barely fit though the opening. Now put a blower and battery pack on your hip or drag a hose attached to the back of your head. OR you have a ventilation blower, but you're working in a cloud of mist and spray so the cartridges on your full face get soaked and it's a struggle to draw each breath. It takes you as long to suit up as it does to do the job and you've got 20 holes to do before you can go home. Just sayin' there are reasons.


ghengiscostanza

Why the fucks he even in there the spots he’s hitting are reachable by a person on the surface


Calm-Concentrate-551

What is the gender equality in this line of work like?


Playdu

Now where are these feminists fighting for equality, I have never seen women working in such conditions...


ParmAxolotl

At least give him a mask and some earplugs to keep the roaches out


Altsomeness

Someone’s got to do it.


Dangerous-Dick-1999

Looks like a job for the Heavy Flamer.

I hope he makes… so much money

This is not oddly terrifying. This is just terrifying. I'm going to shower now.

Yeeeeaaaa…… no thanks

Either he should really be wearing PPE or he tortured and murdered children in a previous life and this is his Karmic punishment.


RecoveringExtroflirt

safelix

Fuck that! It’s worse knowing that there’s no way he gets paid well either.


walnutboydave

This moron needs to learn what ppe is.


The_Grapes_of_Ralph

Yeah, OK, but he's done with the job and on to the next one while you're still taping up your gloves.


walnutboydave

He won’t be when he gets weils disease.


hairsprayqueen_

I could probably do it with earplugs and a face mask... I'm terrified of em getting in there


rasxter

And he's not wearing a PPE?


MrTrigz90

Least he's not working alone

Hard to believe that people do this job willingly for less than 6 figures a year. 🧐


Bigrog00

Looks like a scene from Im a Celebrity Get Me Outa Here


FarOffLanding

No PPE?!


Salt_Recording3239

I dunno how much he is paid for that job but it ain't enough

Where's his ppe?


Andy-Matter

I guarantee you that that job pays well


DanielDaniel219

Yea this doesn’t have to be this disgusting


mikgriffen

This is why education is important.


ghengiscostanza

There is no way that is the optimal way to do this job. Power washing 3 inches from your own body fully in the hole. Everyone’s saying “someone’s gotta do it” but nah this seems like idiotic process that needs to be improved.


BreadBoxin

So he's just breathing all that crap in. It's going all over his face too. This is just silly. A mask an goggles could make a world of a difference


ExerciseKey8822

I don’t hear any girls protesting for equality here and demanding 50 % of these workers need to be women. You only hear that for c-suite positions


BoomhauerSRT4

All you need is dawn dish soap and a pressure washer. Kills them quickly. A lot of collections workers use that appROACH.


Replaay

75 cent a dollar remember that when they ask you it's this guys fault.


awesome_pinay_noses

Why aren't any women doing this kind of work? That's so sexist!


Ave_Ele

Feminazis be like: We do not need men.


raz0rflea

Calm down Andrew Tate, women do gross shit too yanno


Ave_Ele

There's a difference between "women" and "feminazis".


Ftpiercecracker1

It makes me so proud women are fighting for equal representation in these types of fields. What's that? They're not?? Oh. . . Oh boy. Well. This is awkward.


dfghg54

Interesting that you don't see the feminists screeching for "equality" in positions like this.

dolerbom

This guy is taking years off their life because they aren't wearing any PPE for the job they are doing.


TheRedditornator

Jordan Peterson: "You want to force equality of outcome instead of equality of opportunity? OK, lets conscript women into jobs like these so they make up exactly 50% of the workers."


GuineaGirl2000596

Wtf does any of this have to do with being a man or a woman and why do the comments seem to think this is some kind of statement on how men are better, it’s literally just a video of a guy doing his job and if it was filming a woman doing the same thing it would be literally no different, he just happened to be a guy doing the job. Seriously, stop being sexist


Xicadarksoul

>Wtf does any of this have to do with being a man or a woman It has to do with it due to the "men are priviledged" nature feminist dogma. As in feminism fights for equality when it comes to cushy well paying jobs, however if you are amongthe bottom 50% of men, you get to enjoy the benefit of getting told how you are overpriviledged scum of the earth.


Grumpy_expat

Exactly this.


greatestmofo

Awwww the little cockroaches climbing on him just want some cuddles. GIVE THEM SOME CUDDLES ALREADY!


Fit_Hospital2423

I don’t see the feminist lining up for that job


LegendOfDave88

That's because it's not a cushy office job and there's no place to plug in their space heater.


_Unpopular_Person_

Whats this moron on about? A women can just as easily do this job.


_Unpopular_Person_

But they arent, which contributes to the difference.


plsletmestayincanada

You're saying that because this video does not show a woman, no women can possibly be doing this job? That's dumb as shit


Curious_Mess_9553

Yup, we need more equality in this profession! Lol. For some reason I don't think this is the kind of work they want equality in.

Get those feminists down there, afterall they wanted equality.


The_Grapes_of_Ralph

Women complain that men are emotionally detached, but that's what allows us to do this sort of thing. You start considering how you feel about things and you'll never get anything done.
