nah, my bet is that’s a machine that’s like visibly exploded to pieces. some manager walked by and reprimanded them for not tagging the broken gear. writer of tag argued back that “it’s obviously fucked, i mean look at it. have a think about it for a second”. manager said it doesn’t matter, protocol. tag writer writes sarcastic tag.

This sounds exactly Aussie enough to be true

I’m imagining obvious fire damage and a chalk outline of intern Redshirt in front of the machine…

    Genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if someone did try to use it, but also don’t see why anyone would think a little red tag would prevent such a person from trying anyway.

    The red tag isn’t to stop it, it’s to document the stupidity. Now when it goes to court/WCB, there’s documented proof that they tried to ensure even amoron would understand it’s not safe to use

I like your take way better than mine, I think that’s exactly what happened! Still reckon it’s an Aussie ;)

  haha, no doubt. i may not be Australian, but i have written similar snarky reports before lol. after a certain point you’re choosing between 5 hours of overtime to write a report, or writing something like “event was fucked, station did not coordinate, check initial documents”
