    Ok, Simon decided that instead of creating yet an other channels, he would post 7 times a week on all 10 channels for a total of 70 videos per week.... In the free time he has left, he will be giving lecture at different RH classes on how to keep hundreds of employees in a 10m sqrt basement.

      @@TheNixie1972 Even with the pilot knowing the waters well, stupid shit can happen, lol. Used to work at one of the wheat pools in Vancouver, Canada, and a ship damaged our dock enough to take it down for a couple weeks for repairs despite having a local pilot on board.
      See, the empty ships would come up the Fraser River from the Pacific, turn around midstream when they reached us, and sidle up alongside our dock on their port side, with their noses point back the way they came.
      The whole thing would also be guided by a couple of tugs for fine control, but the ships still have to do the broad strokes correctly; even empty, that's a *lot* of mass and inertia.
      So these idiots pick up the pilot down at the mouth of the river, as usual, and he guides them up to us. Has them start the turn, head towards us, and then tells them to put it into reverse to complete the turn.
      --And the captain tells him, "We don't have reverse. It doesn't work."
      Well, it was too tight a turn to make without reverse (and thanks sooo much for letting the pilot know when he got on!!), and the tugs did their best, but they were headed straight for our dock and while they didn't wipe it out (which they easily could have), they did damage our overhead gantry, which we use to load the wheat into the ships. The guys up there honestly thought they were about to die, but luckily while the thing shook and swayed badly (it's many storeys tall) it didn't come down.
      TL;DR: Even a local pilot can't prevent idiotic screw-ups every time. :/

    So I work for a ISP that has fiber services in 6 counties. When I started about 8 years ago 3 counts fiberlines ran through a forth. In that one the others where running through, someone plugged a router in backward and they it went all to Hell. Started something called a Spanning Tree Event, basically blacking out fiber services for 4 counties. Because of the hills, Cell services use the Fiber between towers. So ALL fiber was down, Cell services down, Emergency services down, and the relays for Police/medical/Fire were down for over 12 hours. The County had to pay almost 50 million in fines for allowing the Fiber system to go down like that. (in my state the counties own the fiber, its all publicly owned.)
