This wall was to the supply room with all of the uniforms and PPE. The building was constructed in the mid-20th century so it turns out it's full of asbestos. Thanks mole man.

sicko-no

All your PPE is considered contaminated now. Was it just the drywall mud containing or was the insulation behind the wall containing too

I know so much about asbestos

Moleman has now begun the process of transforming into a being of pure scar tissue. Takes about 20-30 years

The supply room and everything in it was immediately blocked off. But now we have neither uniforms nor full PPE for our outdoor jobs with hazardous conditions.

I'm not sure where the asbestos was exactly, only that it's a giant maintenance garage built in the early 1970s. They probably heavily fireproofed the whole structure. It's nasty shit but I kind of want to make a little hole in the wall to get some for one of those magic Roman bags that cleaned itself.

If you want to be more Roman just wipe your doodoo ass with a vinegar soaked sea sponge. Avoid the magic bag of doom.

I exclusively tradshit in public bathrooms with no stalls, but asbestos bags show the brilliance of Greco-Roman culture. Imagine the convenience of tossing your clothes in the fire after a long day of watching slaves murder each other for sport. They come out perfectly clean without any washing or drying. Why would the gods make this magic if it wasn't good for us in moderation?

I was going to argue with you but after drinking a lead flagon of wine I can see the merits of your argument. Praise the gods. If it wasn't good for us why would they put it here for us to use it? If the gods want to fuck with us they'd do something much more direct like turn into a goose and bang our wife.

And to be clear, banging my wife isn't a total deal breaker

One guy actually observed the slaves mining asbestos dying of respiratory problems more frequently than other slaves back in like year 100 or whatever

Just one more tally on the slate. Gotta hit my marble block quota this anum or I'm going to be mining it myself

Important distinction: annum, unless your quotas are measured in assholes (which, depending on the line of work...).

If the fireproofing spray is asbestos that'll be a high risk removal so expect to see orange plastic on your future
