I've never understood how knowing I'd die "instantly" is supposed to make me feel better. (I get kinda claustrophobic in there!)

My dad uses the same line whenever I'm scared of heights. Never works. On a related note maybe I don't want to go into mech engineering :D
Die instantly as opposed to suffocating to death or drowning or starving..... the proverbial "didn't know what hit 'em".
So uh.... where are you and that guy crammed into? Is it a pipe or something?
Last time I saw something that cavernous I was with your mum!
Sorry, mother jokes just come to me... Like mothers
*******? That reminds me a lot of the ***** at *********.
Good guesses. Please stop guessing. -- Jam
If I was in a situation like this I might pretend that I was in the Bat Cave. Not that it would help. But it would be kinda' odd ... which is fun. :)
what were you doing anyway?? (please excuse my dumb ignorance)
......... At first I thought he was making some silly movie reference..... Is he?..... *hopes he is* I dun wanna have a dead Jammy. I'm sure a certain fianc?? feels the same.
<.<" The ?? word is the real way of saying fieonce.
I wonder why it doesn't let me put the e with the accent mark above it....
Maybe it is because people don't really fear death - just dying horribly?
Is that a ********** blade you've been inspecting for abrasion?
Very good guess. Please stop guessing. -- Jam
Not abrasion, no, just damage in general.
Hmm... so, that's a ***************, a *********, some ******************* with ****, and a gate.
Interesting.
You lucky bum. Some of us have to go way out of our way to get into dangerous and claustrophobic tunnels. :)
If we can't guess where you were... can we atleast guess about what you were doing? :D
... sure :)
Sometimes the world can be too serious.
Getting fired over little things would be annoying. =/
It looks like you're reshaping worn blades on a ********************* with hand files.
Please stop guessing. -- Jam
Ahhhhh, censorship. Why do you need to censor all that anyway?
Lets just say Jam and I have similar jobs. I *know* what she's doing down there because I've done it as recently as last week.
No I don't work with her or at her... job. Mine is in Rochester, NY to compare... judging by the size much smaller than the one she's working on.
I switched from boilers burning fuels recently. Had a chance to "go below..." It's at once awesome and scary being in there.
Rather do this sort of work than deal with boilers. Actually far less chance of dying a horrible death or one from cancer due to exposure.
Ohh I know what you're doing!
You're helping zoo giants procreate by sharpening their wangs. The crane was actually a bird in the next enclosure.
I have an associate who works in the d3ss4t with n4k3s in a place thats pritty famous l0s ...... and he laughs at me when I ask him what he does.
also this looks like a room from the movie hellraiser
I prefer any possible death to be as slow as possible with as little pain as possible. Hypothermia for example. That way, I have as much as chance to be rescued as possible, and don't suffer if I am not. Pain upon survival is safely ignored. I didn't need those toes anyways.
A friend sent me a link to your comic today. I have no idea what you are doing or where, I just wanted to say that this looks exactly like something I would have a nightmare about.
Would make an awesome RPG dungeon.
Wait a second.
No overalls ... lack of PPE! H&S people must be in fits.

No, no, she's tuning the primary photon siphon on one of the three main engines of an Imperial Star Destroyer. That photon conveyor is adjacent to the primary thermal conduit, and the gates keep the plasma stream contained during maintenance.
Having an untuned photon siphon is a huge problem for the ISD -- it causes charged particles to mix with the compression photon pulse, and the neutron DeAcc (deceleration/acceleration) rings on the turbolasers will wear out ten times as fast as they would with a clean photon source.
-c.
Pardon the bumbling.
Must been my job experiences and my banned german email.
However, in my humble opinion, the 'are-you-done-yet-and-may-we-come-in' -whining of megatons o' water, as well the melody of touching cables and tearing whooshes of passing lifts in the confined endless dark above and beneath you must be met with a reasonable amount of dark humour.
I know, i wasn't there.
I admire your courage to stay inside and do your job, though, Jam.
@Adam - You're right, now that I think back to it I think I was also wearing my Fall Arrest and Sniffer. But it's pretty clean in the plants, I don't generally have to wear coveys. And no need for Hi-Vis if there's nothing there to see you ;)
