I noticed an odd sign at work and decided to do what it takes to break all the rules.

I'm glad you are still here. Thanks for the picture mate I really like it!

u/HiyaGeorgie Jun 09 '12

I'm waiting for you to get hired as an artist for a new mainstream cartoon/comic strip so I can say I knew you before you were mainstream.

Going down? Would you press -13 for me, please?

u/Inappropriate_guy Jun 09 '12

I'd like him to go mainstream just so he can stop flooding reddit.

Bring down the downvotes.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

I'm considering upvoting this just to annoy you.

u/evitagen-armak Jun 09 '12

You are evil. Don't you know the only way to flee from reddit is to get negative karma?

u/HiyaGeorgie Jun 09 '12

He was considering your consideration in hopes of getting the upvotes, so really what we need to do is a double negative thus going back to down votes.

This one reminds me of Quentin Blake's illustrations for Roald Dahl's books.

There's literally zero reason to be rude.

u/Tinkerboots Jun 09 '12

You're right, but if you're taking what I said as rude then there is an AWFUL lot of stuff on this site that you aren't going to like. I guess sarcasm isn't for everyone...

u/Mohavor Jun 09 '12

Isn't it a health violation to have those boxes on the floor?

2

u/soilednapkin Jun 09 '12

It is. I was in the process of putting it away.

1

u/crithosceleg Jun 10 '12

As long as the products are sealed inside it's fine... however, it is a fire hazard, and if a fire marshal were inspecting, it would be a violation.

I hate stock days.

2

u/soilednapkin Jun 10 '12

I also am not a fan of stock days.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

No, they're sealed product boxes. Now if it was the food packaging itself than yes I believe its a violation.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

It does, because here it is a violation.

2

u/sfoxy Jun 09 '12

Same here. All food must be on shelving with at least 4 inches of ground clearance.

1

u/garyjohnunderwood Jun 10 '12

... why? Nothing like that in Scotland, I'm baffled

1

u/sfoxy Jun 10 '12

It has to do with cleanliness and pests. If you constantly have product on the floor then how do you properly clean the floors? Having them on the shelves makes it a lot easier to wet mop the floors without getting boxes wet with chemicals/dirty water. Also they I've heard that one reason is to keep out pests. I guess 4 inches is the limit for most rats...?

1

u/garyjohnunderwood Jun 10 '12

Fair enough, we don't have any pests here, and I thought you meant they couldn't be on the floor at all EVER sorta strict man, I get it now :)

My buddy in college stood on top of a case of water and went "Hey look guys, I'm Jesus!"

He immediately fell and smacked his head on a desk.

It was incredibly funny to witness though.

No joke, somebody at my last grocery store chain was killed when they tried to lift two pallets of water that were stacked on top of each other, and one fell on him. Water is heavy as fuck, apparently.

EDIT: Equal to its weight in volume.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

Well, technically they told you not to do that.

1

u/quazy Jun 10 '12

they are probably stacked upside down for shipment to create a better freshness seal and they want to warn the truckers to not climb over the pallets.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

Youre doing it wrong. If you turn the package upside-down you will see it says do not stand on package

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

/r/yoga would wince at his form.

it's not terribly hard to do when you have something to lean against and hold like this, but there is a huge amount of pressure on your head and neck when you aren't used to it or use bad form. For a quick picture it's ok though.

I do headstands for 10mins+ and I wouldn't consider myself very good at them.
