Now that they are struggling with not having enough experienced people they are saying, oh no we are safety 1st. Yet their actions still say production over safety. They killed 2 people a few months ago, now they are wanting me to go to a meeting to discuss knocking a plug out of a system with a 2x4. This plug in the line is at the bottom of a vessel which contains what we call high boilers. They are very reactive and catch fire easily when exposed to humidity or any moisture. We cannot verify weather there is any liquid high boilers above this plug. Yet they want one of my people to stand under it in a Chemical suit and hammmer at this plug. ****ing crazy idiots!!!
I know a way to check if there is liquid above the plug but they haven't deemed it necessary to ask me.

If you stay there you can possibly save someone's life, and you could point out the issues until you get fired. If that happens, you can go after them for whistleblower retaliation. Win win either way.
