Hey Art

How is your internship going?

That's Undo :)

Didn't you also have one

I got a Real Job

How is that job going?

Also why can't we have undo quality interns

I assumed at least one out of the Art/Undo pairing was a bot... :P

Well half our old staff have left, so I'm now basically the most senior instructor we have

All we got is this 16 year old with absolutely no knowledge of anything computer nor the interest to learn anything

So I've been promoted after 2 months, and I'm calling that a win

@Henders how do you know it's not both of us?

What are you working as?

Nah, Glorfindel and Tripleee are Art's AI projects

@ArtOfCode But then who programmed you...

Plot twist: spam detection systems on SE are headed up by bots

@Henders myself

Self improving AI

@Magisch instructor at a high ropes course thing

doesn't sound computer-ish at all :P

That'd be cuz it's not :P

I'm not great at High Ropes...

Get a bit nervous that I'll fall to my death.

@Henders in 15 years, across 50-60 courses, 5 people have died

So... no

Well that makes me feel better. Maybe I'll be less worried next time :P

3 of those weren't "our" fault: they had heart attacks on the course, and those happen fast enough that nobody could get to them with an ED in time.

2 of them still weren't our fault, but were directly related to the use of the course: customers removed their safety lines from the system and either fell or jumped.

> Yearly review: We're sorry, Art, but you let the 70 year old have a heart attack. You should have been a medical doctor and saved that poor fellow. I'm afraid I can't give you an "Exceeds Expectations" this year or recommend a promotion. Try to be more doctor like next time.

@ArtOfCode Intentionally? Or was it a result of people misunderstanding directions?

There've been a bunch of major injuries (broken bones, etc), but honestly... all the incidents we have are a direct result of people either being dumb or not following safety procedures. Listen to what instructors tell you, and the thing is as safe as anything else in life.

@thesecretmaster I believe it was one of each, but don't quote me on that

I'd say misunderstanding directions is still at least partially the fault of the course.

Potentially

At the same time... we've had 7 million customers, and only one or possibly two of them managed to misunderstand directions to that extent.

It's probably less likely than getting crushed by a vending machine.

There's a couple hundred incidents logged for my site, but 90% of those are "customer recieved minor cut to {insert body part} due to {insert cause of injury}, which was in direct contradiction of the safety rules that were explained to them at the start of their session"

@thesecretmaster I don't think they have Vending Machines at the top of high rope courses... ;)

I think the worst injury we've had at my site in the 4 months it's been open is a sprain or two.

and yes, that's probably enough information to work out where I work

customer recieved minor cut to head due to bashing head on post in shock at seeing a vending machine falling from the sky towards them

@Henders Behaviour of vending machine in contradiction of company safety rules; Status=ThirdPartyFault.

@ArtOfCode Placement of vending machine on the other hand...

However, my job may not be technical in theory, but of course I've become tech support when things go wrong

@Henders Blame United. It fell from the sky.

Actually, what's the airline everyone dislikes?

Oh yeah, united, for dragging that dude down the aisle.

I believe it's called ${AirlineName}

Well, I've learnt a lot about High Ropes and Vending Machines today..

> FIND A GO APE NEAR ME

I can probably see about 5 just looking out of the window...

@Henders what, vending machines? :P

Haha, no the other one :P

@ArtOfCode So like top-roping?

(indoor I assume?)

@DJMcMayhem the only resemblance is they both involve rope

High ropes != climbing

Ok. What's the difference?

How is your internship going

Also how does one aquire undo quality interns

@Undo mainly because I broke it several days ago without noticing, so I figured better stop myself doing that again

[ metasmoke ] ci/circleci success on 7f5e79c: Your tests passed on CircleCI!

@Magisch Pretty good. I've got a couple critical-ish projects, which is fun

oh, and we're continuing through the school year. Which is nice.

@ArtOfCode I've been to high ropes gardens before

It's almost impossible to injure yourself unless you're dumb as a brick or deliberately ignoring what they tell you at the start

even if you flat out let go of the rope you're currently hangling on there's this harness thing that'll save you from dropping down

@Undo That's nice

Our current intern (for 1 year) 100% lacks any interest or ability

He was hired as a favor to his mother

@Magisch or if you slip and bash yourself >.<

@Mithrandir they give you slipproof shoes though....

not at the one I went to they didn't

@Magisch Yeah, it's a mixed bag. 'Hired as a favor to his mother' is kinda an organization smell, though.

metasmoke deploying

@Magisch If you're in NYC and need an intern (probobly not quite Undo quality), let me know :)

@Mithrandir well, we had a function in our apartment a couple of months ago. The organisers set up a temporary rope line for kids. One side of the line which was connected to the wall broke and the kid fell. Nothing serious as it wasn't too high, thankfully.

yowch

Really, though, it's easy to fake an interview. Especially for an intern where you're trying to gauge willingness to learn, not actual technical ability... almost impossible to hire accurately.

@Mithrandir this happens to about 1% of people

I guess you can't help yourself if the line comes off, but I guess that happens only in temporary lines.

@ArtOfCode guess my cousin is special then

1%? Awful high :P

@Undo not for people just bashing themselves on something accidentally :P

@ArtOfCode how high is that line, approximately?

@AshishAhuja more like in badly-set-up lines

someone do a safety audit of that company

@AshishAhuja 9m dead-on

I'm sure you review security footage of people bashing themselves on stuff later, for, ya know, training purposes?

No doubt we would if we had CCTV... anywhere

more like "stifle laugh when it happens in front of you" :)

@ArtOfCode huh, yeah. This line was only 2 metres high, nothing really happened except a couple of scratches.

@ArtOfCode Really? In the US your insurance company would force you to install CCTV so that people couldn't just make stuff up to sue you with

or at least wouldn't as often

@Undo oh no they wouldn't ;)

we operate in the US as well, no CCTV there either

o.O

tpu- by Mithrandir

probably down to the insane levels of reporting and logging we do

Basically, if someone tries to sue us on the basis that they injured themselves doing something they claim we didn't tell them not to, we collect some stuff:

Seems like the door is wide open to someone walking home and hitting their head on a telephone pole or something, then saying it was your pole that viciously attacked their head.

Customer witness statements (anyone who saw the incident, the injured party, the supervising parents, and anyone in the same briefing group as the injured party)

btw, does the script which shows instances active as circles in chat rooms malfunction in SOCVR for everyone:

Course safety inspection records

Instructor safety brief assessments

Equipment safety inspection records

@ArtOfCode I thought that said 'instructor safety: brief assasinations' at first

Then we put all that in a pile, and have our lawyers hand it to their lawyers and say "so we have these 20 people who say we told you not to do that and you were being an idiot, and you're saying we didn't tell you? Have fun."

@Undo This would get thrown out of court, because we'd just say "well you should've told us when you were here then"

Probably helps that the company I work for basically developed (or advised on) all the policies, standards, and laws that govern courses like ours

Surprisingly easy to smash your head on a low ceiling but that's why they give you helmets. I don't understand this whole 'Let\'s sue everyone and ruin their lives even though it was my fault' mind-set... :/

Doesn't seem very decent..

If I hit my head on a climbing wall, I knew there was risks when I signed up. If a climbing wall falls on my head, then that's different...

@Henders So we make everyone sign a disclaimer before they get anywhere near a harness. The script for doing that goes along the lines of "read through these points at the top, then we need name, age, and supervising signature for everyone participating". I'm still amazed at the number of people who, despite just being told to, refuse to read through the 7 short sentences at the top of the page that describe exactly what they're signing away.

It's a bit like 'Well I have to sign this to do the activity therefore I will just sign' for some people, I guess.

@Henders well, that's true enough, but I'd still want to know what I'm signing for

Of course.
