If a tool or machine can simply be unplugged, and the worker performing the service remains in control of the plug, then lockout procedures aren’t necessary.

I’m only replying for visibility at this point because of the upvotes and the dangerous scenarios that are being promoted with this advice. Breaker with LOTO would be more acceptable but even then I wouldn’t trust it. People have been killed because something was wired up wrong and circuits were accidentally connected (meaning breakers off but currents still going from a connection down the line to another breaker, it can appear that the circuit is dead until a switch is flipped sending current and happens in home lighting constantly). Also, someone can simply plug the device into another outlet leaving them with a death on their hands.
I know it’s dramatic and these are just comments, but something like this could save or take a life. I’ve seen too many workplace accidents and refuse to work in unsafe conditions or environments anymore even if it costs me the job. Last unsafe worksite I was in, nearly all of the workers walked out together when we arrived in the morning to start at a new site and saw what the project manager had in store for us (probably helped that the owner was hated and payroll had been getting screwed up for weeks). I’ll never forget that day and still keep in contact with most of them. We are all waiting and scared for the day a mass casualty is reported from the shitty work they were trying to make us do (some did report it to the authorities, but never heard what came of those reports).

Only if the breaker has it’s own system for LOTO. You guys are going to get people killed lol.

For the past couple of years I’ve been on a “home cooking” stretch making as many different varieties of cuisines possible, dough is by far one of the toughest to perfect even with decades of experience in the restaurant industry . Without decent equipment costing an outrageous amount you’re going to be spending hours and multiple attempts to get a product that resembles the flavor and texture profile you’re aiming for.
I feel like the responses I see to how “easy” home cooking is comes from the Dunning-Kruger effect. No one enjoys setting up a flour station and having to clean that shit up (especially if you’re a dough slapper, which why wouldn’t you be). A beginner cutting up and prepping the ingredients for a deluxe pizza is going to take 30 mins alone (precook sausage, 7+ different items needing to be cut, blending sauce, shredding cheese). The dough is a whole other paragraph that’s just making me tired thinking about it, but decent dough takes time.
Top professionals know the years of hard work and learning that is needed to efficiently run a quick kitchen. There’s so much research needed, trial-and-error, and shitty recipes out there it’s beyond unnecessarily complicated without a solid template (mentor, family recipes) to follow. It becomes a second hobby (which people don’t have time for) if you want to completely replace expenses and keep the same quality from desirable restaurants. Got a shitty oven that doesn’t cook evenly? Can’t afford anything but a wooden spoon and a large plastic mixing bowl? Temperatures in your dwelling that vary rapidly effecting your meal prep? The poorer you are the more you have to micro-manage every detail when you’re already stretched so thin.
