    So you never heard of CSB raids? Where they come in and randomly turn stuff on/off and close/open valves to see if your plant blows up?

      “Oh yeah? Well what’ll happen if I push this button and then turn all the knobs to max?”

      “Everything will be fucked up.”

      “Well I just did it. Now what?”

      “Everything is fucked up.”

      “Bet ya didn’t think of that 😎”

      So they do the things that a competent fucking maintenance worker knows not to do and it isn’t considered gross negligence?

        The CSB doesn’t regulate and it can’t issue fines. They also don’t show up unless you’ve already had an incident. When they do show up, it’s simply to document and investigate the root causes, so they can issue recommendations to one of the regulatory agencies that actually enforces things. You need to have really fucked up for an agency with literally 40 staff overseeing one of the largest industrial economies in the world to notice you.
