Hey, this is unfair.
I do not have the impression that the girl is uncomfortable.

In addition, when I look at some of the bellies and heads of our Laverdisti, we don't necessarily have model dimensions and a sensational look.
Live and let live - from the Jungsters' point of view, we also ride ugly bikes.

It is said that I am supposedly very tolerant.
Yes, and I do illegal things from time to time too.

But when it comes to war, with endless suffering or the (e.g. ugly) appearance of people, which can also be due to illness, from my point of view you reach the limits to have fun with it.

I'm not a spoiler, there are a lot of other things that you can joke or tease yourself about.
You can even make jokes about spiders ;-).

Thomas aus LAU - over and out
 
I must say, I sometimes have to conceal my screen from my kids (16yo boy and 20yo woman) and my partner when some of this stuff appears. I come from the era where everything was fair game, and I tend to ignore what displeases me, but I can't say I'm always impressed. The world needs a little more kindness. Moving right along here - back to motorbike talk ...
 
Well said Thomas and TC (y)
It does us no harm to be a little gentler with our interactions.

The world is becoming less tolerant of racist, sexist, or body morphology jokes, and rightly so.
We can still have fun without hurting people.

Exmoor beast, here's a guideline for you. Think how that woman would feel if she read your comments about her.

BTW, I'm not claiming to be innocent of making such comments myself. We've all done or said stupid things.

Thomas, you may think she looks comfortable, I think she looks like a settee.

I have a new bloke at work, 23 years my younger, with a politically correct attitude similar to Thomas.
Took him a few weeks to come forward, but apparently, the majority things I say about/to people isn't tolerated these days.
I still see him, drop his shaking head when he hears me on the phone to the fucken arsewipes I have to deal with.

Like when I rang a bloke and said I don't want your $70K machine order.
Q: "Why"
A: "Because people like you are only going to fuck that type of machine, and then you'll winge ya tits off to me because 'I sold you' a piece of shit"

Seems that was not polite ..... fucken true though.


"I think she looks like a settee" For gods sake, don't sit on it, we'll never hear from you again!
Corporal Agarn in quicksand would last longer than you!

Hi Chris, one does not exclude the other.

Yes, I try to be fair and friendly to people, animals and nature. I also have a lot of patience.

But if that is not enough, or the "opponent" is unfair, threatens danger, or a goal for everyone can be achieved, I can suddenly switch to another mode - at least as fast as a snake :).

In this mode, I'm tough, I don't compromise, I resort to the "aircraft carrier" and other extreme means, and - beleave me - I'm anything but friendly.

In the past 35 years as a crisis manager I have really experienced a lot of extreme situations and have had to bear a lot of responsibility for many employees and a lot of money.

Yes, you can combine both - fair/humane and consistent/radical, if there is no other way and if it is necessary.
I have come a long way in business and private with the fair and authentic approach. I don't want to change a good running system.

By the way:
In my job I have often seen that seemingly inconspicuous or supposedly uneducated people employees had ingenious skills, that were just not visible at first glance. Or people were supposed "problems" or "cross drivers". In reality, these were very competent employees, who were only frustrated because the necessary improvements did not work.

"Nothing is what it seems at first sight."

As a boss, manager, colleague or even as a parent, it is the job to discover, where an unpolished diamond is hidden and to grind/refine and develop it.

Let's get back to the topic "cool videos".

Unfortunately I only have an uncool video to offer, from a surveillance camera from the loading yard of a printing company.
An employee had the task of watering plants with a forklift, on which there was a container with 1000 liters of water = 1 to.

- it was sloping
- the container was not secured


- The employee (father of 7 children) was injured and sick for several months
- Three damaged cars, one total loss

Conclusion
- follow the rules (transport lock, apply handbrake)
- Your life comes first, don't risk it to save replaceable or insured valuables.

Haha. That doesn't surprise me Chris. Some of the stuff you say on here is a bit cringe-worthy.

I think there's a difference between being offensive and telling someone they're a dickhead if they actually are a dickhead. In your example, you may have done the bloke a service to point out point out his failings if it encourages him to gain the necessary skills before buying and operating expensive machinery. It may not have been tactful, but it was succinct and to the point.
