Working in a wastewater treatment plant this week.
Today I'm in the Digestor Complex. Tomorrow I go back to the Sludge and Scum Building. Friday is the delightful Dewatered Sludge Storage.
Why is this sign even necessary?

Most new industrial radiography technicians use apps, but I prefer an old school slide rule.
You can calculate exposure times based on the strength of your radioactive source, the thickness of steel you need to shoot through, and the source-to-film distance.

I most recently checked some structural welds on these guys before they were sent to the shipyard for installation.
They're apparently retractable deck mounted cranes used to set up ziplines for quickly transferring supplies between ships at sea.

I have hard copy (prints) of most of these framed on my walls. I've always been fascinated by propaganda posters.

This bill sets several *incredibly* dangerous precedents - you either have rights or you don't.
The UCP is not only overriding collective bargaining rights, but the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Human Rights Act, the Labour Relations Board, and the Alberta Bill of Rights as well.

The Prime Minister's residence has been vacant since 2015. It's rodent infested, uninhabitable and hasn't been properly maintained for decades.
Our previous PM elected to live elsewhere rather than waste money on renovations.
