...I agree with you.
But walking around an auto plant all sauced up/stoned is not what I recommend.
If you want to stick you noggin under a 10-ton sheet metal press while it's cycling through...knock yourself out. They'll mop up the mess and have someone new working on it within a few hours.
But a lot of these people are performing functions that can seriously hurt other people if they're not paying attention.
That auto plant that I mentioned above?
That same plant had two people drive hi-lows off of an empty dock (the dock locks weren't working, but the bay door was open because it was a hot day), and into an empty truck well, within a span of a few months.
Fortunately no one was seriously hurt. They got shipped off to the hospital, and a certain auto company whose initials are Government Motors is now out two hi-lows due to inept dock workers.
And guess who fought to save their jobs?
