Let the finger pointing begin

[The-Spec]

The town I grew up in was a pretty industrialised area up intil the last ten or so years.

The way these places operate safety wise is your given a helmet, a flashlight, and a set of locks. And the things that get locked up aren't gates so much as electrical boxes and the machines themselves. It's to prevent people from turning things back on when your working on (or inside them).

People can generally tell how things are running based purely on the look and sound of the machines they're working on. The people in little comfortable booths with computers are generally lead-men which well... lets put it this way, some are actually out there helping while others are in their booths.
