Ouch
I thought it was part of a design or something when I walked into the theater. Nope just piss poor workmanship

That's what I was thinking, like no way they didn't do that on purpose
Maybe? I would venture to guess not, but who knows? It's for the city of Cambridge MA. They are all sorts of backwards.
Edit, I can say that all of the seams were obviously mudded much higher than they should have been and the seams had no continuity. They just squished that shit all over the place. It's a new school build out, has to be a designer or architect's brain child. The school has some sort of boat hanging from the ceiling in the cafe and it's got a bunch of actuators, gears and what not. It mechanically spins into some weird shape. The shape has no meaning nor does the boat. Cost was 6 figures. Taxpayers money right there.

So have any of you guys heard about all the new regulations on scissor/boom lifts coming to America in 2020? They have added an insane amount of paper work and people to fine. You have to take a certification course l, also a safety guy or GC can say that you need to recertify and the course is 3 hours for a recertification. All new lifts will have scales built in that will shut off if over capacity. They are also raising the guard rails and will have to be broken down to go through door ways. There is a bunch of other stuff. Must have a ground rescue person trained, as well as a written rescue plan written daily.

It's going to be a total shit show. The guy that trained us today said we are the only company he knew of that is certifying it's employees for the new regulations in northern CA
that's a bunch of bull shit. Tell me emotions and personal vendetta won't play into that

Dude not only that, they can make your whole company have to recertify. It's going to be a total shit show!
Had an emergency service call in Back Bay yesterday. A church called about an audio system that was all fucked up, had a big wedding in a few hours. 20 minutes on site and the problem was diagnosed and remedied. God loves me. 
Is this only for union type work or even for private contractors?
It’s only every now and then that I need one but when I do I rent a genie 40’..curious if that will change things on the rental front?

I doubt it will on the rental front, although it may. However if OSHA happens to catch you, the fines could be costly. Most rental companies will run you through the certification class for free I believe. I guess it depends on the size of the job your on and the general contractor
If it’s a mandated thing I know the rental company I use will likely enforce it.
I rented one in September and had to take them a copy of my insurance policy before they’d even put me down on the schedule to secure my rental dates lol.

I'd call and ask them if they are offering any certification classes.
