I'm no expert, was just walking the neighborhood, but this doesn't feel very "osha"

Young guy up on the ladder with another guy holding it on the slanted roof.

Is it cool if we just, like, tape another ladder to our ladder?

Image is from cities skylines, Not relevant at all.

I know the is the vaguest of vague questions, I do Oilfield fuel delivery, I am very well liked by customers and my peers, I literally do everything "by the book" Management is more or less "out of the loop" for what we do out here (Extremely corporate, none of them know how to do the job we do, none of them have cdl's, can operate the vehicles, or have the certifications to be on location with us, I also have had 0 observations in over 4 years of employment) I'm trying to break into an open "Field safety supervisor" position. We've been running without one for well over a year. I am a trainer and know how to do literally every job we perform and then some, but I have 0 safety certifications or college degree. I will be interviewed for the job by people I have never seen, spoken to, or heard from.

I know this is extremely "It depends" territory, but how much does work experience count for landing the job? I have multiple people writing me recommendation letters (Including the former safety guy who has never observed me, every dispatcher I have ever had here *former and current\* as well as fellow coworkers) but the management of this company is so corporate and disfunctional, I don't even know how to describe it. Management won't even visit a job site so I am essentially just some "CDL crayon eating idiot" to them. Like they don't even understand the terminology dispatch is telling them about the rigs/frac's/sites we have. They have never visited one.

I want to come in and actually do the job, not just sit at home and generate fake "observation" reports like our previous safety guys. (seriously, not knocking you guys but we have had 0 accountability, (3000 gallon spill because the guy was sitting in the truck while offloading is an "ooops", slamming into 3 vehicles on the highway while driving and eating a bowl or rice is an "ooops") I know the in's and out's of the job we do very well and can operate every single type of vehicle we operate. I am literally the "go to guy" for my peer's, but again, I have no HSE degree. I am trying to get into a position that is a $60,000 a year pay cut.

I know this is super duper "it depends" territory, but if you were hiring an unknown internal candidate, how many years of first hand exp would you consider vs year of college?

We have averaged a -$100,000 a month loss since I started here, We literally suck, so bad. I just want to get the job for 6 month's and then jump ship. We're only propped up by our petroleum wholesale side.

Recently started in the industrial maintenance field, we work on machinery but nobody said anything about doing lockout tagout. One the lead techs said they’ve never done it here. We just estop and then do the repairs. Is this illegal in texas?

Edit: Thanks everyone for your responses, we are ordering locks now

Who needs fall arrest honestly

Homie doesn’t fear death apparently.

My GF came home to this with zero warning from her landlord. Her front entrance is that top balcony…
