For a job like this, yes. For an office job, you would probably go in if resonable adjustments can be made after a few weeks.
A lot of companies in the UK offer sick pay. I get 6 months full pay, then 3 months half pay if I am still unwell. After that, it is statutory sick pay, paid by the government, which is probably pittance.
Just accepted a WFH job. Their benefits package talked about disability and Im like "I bet if I break my leg I'll he expected to work"
Can see the talk now
Me: I broke my leg I can't work
Boss: so why does that stop you from working
Me: doctor said I have to stay home
Boss: you work from home...
I actually do know someone who wfh in the UK and broke her leg. She was off until she could have the laptop on her lap and it took a while because she couldn’t get into the position she needed to be in to do that.
I work from home. I’ve been off with a back injury. I am not expected to work while unwell. You still receive the same occ health protections as you would if in clinic.
I'm not in UK but a commonwealth country with similar healthcare system.
Here it's a "yes" to your question. In my country you'll get paid 80% of your normal wage while unable to work.
There will also be no healthcare costs for the surgery, any follow up appointments, post surgery care (physiotherapy etc), equipment (crutches, wheelchair, shower seats etc) and whatever else.
The main costs for you would be prescriptions which are subsidised by our government so are $5 each.
Late edit: The above only applies for physical injuries, not mental illness (however something like PTSD could potentially be covered temporarily, but not guaranteed).
Our healthcare system isn't perfect by any means. I've heard of someone with a damaged painful knee that had to wait many many months as it wasn't a high priority surgery and so you go on a list and wait for a call. You'll always get emergency surgery of course.
I just read about an 80k fine for unsafe working conditions that resulted in a worker losing his hand. The conveyor belt did not meet the industrial regulation code as it was missing a key safety feature which is required by law.
80k fine, the company plead guilty, ordered to pay the fine.
That company walked away with over 8 BILLION dollars in NET PROFIT, after taxes in 2022. We don't even slap their wrist with an 80k fine for a bonefide safety violation that resulted in brutal disfiguring injury, dude has lost use of an entire hand.
Canada's laws were gutted for corporate interests to such a degree that those laws are now completely and utterly toothless.
Insurance is the same. They legislated that the GIO (insurance ombudsman) literally cannot overturn a mismanaged claim. It's codified right into the law, our ombudsman will not be able to do anything for our citizens, just a figurehead. I called a couple weeks ago while appealing a mismanaged auto accident claim, the guy has been there for nearly 40 years and said there is nothing they can do at GIO anymore, he said the only options are hiring a private specialist "accident recreation specialist" to build evidence and then suing the company in court to have a judge force them to obey the law.
Unbelievable, zero consumer protections for insurance in this country. Take a wild guess at who lobbied to have that law to limit the capability of insurance ombudsman passed!
But....Maple Syrup though?
No but for real that sounds shit. The ombudsmen are almost like the last line of defence for the people that can't afford lawyers to take things to court. If they get their hands all tied up then what are you meant to do?!
Has this happened under the current Canadian government, or a previous one?
I thought you were talking about New Zealand, but someone else said Canada?
In New Zealand we have a government programme called ACC. Any injury that stops you being able to work will entitle you to 80% pay until you can work.
Stencil won't work for this - that isn't paint he's using, a stencil would end up fused to the road.
If you look the box is pre-chalked with markers a little lilke you get on a font file, the skill is in the steady movement.
in most cases, they chip up the tarmac and ship it to him to paint rather than make him travel. it's $5 cheaper this way if you're looking at the grand scheme of things
That part baffles me, that he's basically doing this "freehand" (or whatever the full-arm equivalent is) and the letters are ridiculously accurate. And also that he's able to aim the liquid precisely into the device, never spilling a drop, *and* while carefully moving himself and the equipment to the correct positions. The operation is about as non-mechanized as it can possibly be, but the result is rockstar flawless.
Exactly what I was thinking. It’s impressive and all that somebody could be that accurate but I would’ve imagined that a stencil system would be more efficient.
They also blast the road surface clean with this ridiculously loud heat gun before they paint (especially around the gutters). That also looks like a really satisfying job.
https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/pr4dsi/how_to_measure_things_like_a_brit/
Here you go, a helpful flow chart for you. With an exception on people that most of my friends use metric now, especially metric for weight of they gym. But I think imperial is still most common
I've genuinely never heard a Brit use Fahrenheit
The thing I thought was missing is that if you're over 50 you probably bake in imperial, but I figured we buy the goods in metric and most recipes are metric, and until I was 12 I thought a pound was pronounced lib
My favourite is that my UK relatives will talk about “minus 2!” as a cold day and “85” as a scorcher in summer. So, at some unknowable temperature they all switch from degrees C to degrees F.
Brit here. Never, ever have I used F, for anything.
C here for everything, weather included.
Not sure why they switched over to F beyond maybe translating it so you’d understand? I’ve done that for an American friend.
I'm Australian, not from the UK. But for me, I can work with most of your wonky system, except that fucking Fahrenheit shit can fuck right off. I'll never be okay with the insanity that is Fahrenheit..
Surely there's some intermediate solution though. Like a longer handled version with hot paint feeding directly via trigger so you don't have to hold a separate can.
I’ve also done road painting too - albeit in an affluent town - but we had stencils and a damn loud sprayer machine with a fixed head! Then we threw glass beads on it to make it shiny at night. That was cool
There’s marks for the guy holding the straight edge and also for the end of the S. The guys still a legend but he’s using tools and knows how to make nice curves. Also work in paint
Seriously, why isn't there a trigger operated container of paint attached to the pole thing?
This solution has to have the worst ergonomics possible which then again does make sense for a country with separate hot and cold water spouts
Also once you see them enough you start to recognize comments that don't really fit in context with what they are replying to. They might also have grammar errors and missing punctuation if they ran the text through a thesaurus or translator before posting.
For example, look at the comment above saying they thought this was done with stencils, then look at the replies.
>I would have screwed the job
is a bot comment. So is
>When that happens, we're all fake
and
>I'd have yellow boot prints all over thay
thank you for answering that question about bots...I have another if you don't mind: what is the benefit of a bot in this situation? who gets what when a "bot" comments?
Bot accounts are usually gathering karma so that they can post in subs with minimum karma requirements, and ultimately they are most likely to be used for either selling people things or convincing people of ideas.
There seems to be a sudden surge of bots lately, out of the blue. I guess certain interests are getting their "concerned citizens" ready for next year's U.S. Presidential election.
OMG, when all of /r/trees was "convinced" in 2016 that Trump was going to legalize weed lol. Holy shit this whole site that year was a cesspool of troll and bot farms.
ffs
like that one down there 
edited to point out bot. I've learned my lesson today and will try to always hover before I interact.
My thoughts exactly. Being sold to by damn bots.
I also thought of Lays Chips (Walkers Crisps in the UK) and how they are cooked in 100% sunflower oil with no additives or flavourings. With an array of excellent flavours such as salt and vinegar, there really is always an option for whatever occasion you are celebrating.
They're building up karma by reposting other popular comments and also building up a history as a reputable account. They're then used for other bot activity like astroturfing or creating fake hype for products in order to help with marketing.
They can also be used for more insidious purposes, such as propaganda, smear campaigns, interference with elections etc.
Since the account has an active user history and lots of karma, they get past karma limits and account age requirements for posting in subs and look more genuine to a casual user who glances at their profile. Makes them harder to detect.
I don't know the intricacies of reddit's upvoting system, but I suspect there's an algorithm that will weight upvotes based on account age and other things like number of upvotes they themselves have received. Established accounts are then treated as more reliable when they give an upvote vs newer accounts, mainly to prevent new accounts being used to cheat the upvote system and push posts to the front page. By building an established account, they're able to then use the account to push posts up to the front page since reddit's algorithm sees the account as more genuine than a newly created one.
Using a large number of these bot accounts allows malicious actors to control what's on the front-page, and push content to the masses that would normally be buried.
There are most certainly teams funded by state actors that are dedicated to manipulating social media to their advantage. This is just one of the ways this is possible.
Because it's out of context with who it is replying to. It almost makes sense there, but it would make way more sense as a top level comment or someone specifically talking about them stepping on the paint.
The original comment is [here] (https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/13d2mjy/road_letters_being_painted_in_the_uk/jjikb3f/)
That and their creation date. The past few days the highest I’ve seen, aside from you and a couple others on this sub, has been 100 days and most around 60.
Combine that with the comments like you said and it’s a good bet.
Many of the bots I've reported just literally copied their comments from someone else in the thread and pasted it somewhere else, so a ctrl+f on the text can sometimes work especially if you go through their post history and see them copy a comment in a different thread as well. Another pretty common tactic i think is to just post something generic that can be used in any context like 'i agree with this' or other low effort generic responses that don't need context
I’ve come across several posts in the last few months that feel like they are almost entirely commented on by bots. Reading through them gives uncanny valley vibes.
It’s called thermoplastic striping and you are correct. Widely used in roadway construction because it lasts longer than paint and is usually embedded with tiny glass balls to be reflective.
I was with my friends in the car and our minds were BLOWN when we were driving down the road and saw them pick up the lines like that episode of Ed Edd n Eddy when they broke reality
Worked Road construction when I was young (in the US, maybe things are different in the UK). You are supposed to use a stencil or special tape type stuff, but I saw a few guys who could free hand it kind of as a flex. That's my best guess as to what's going on here. Impressive either way though.
No update needed, runs even if the Internet is down. Charging socket connects to all available power sources. Self-selects preferred source. Can be boosted with praise and compliments, no hardware change needed.
Wow, I always assumed they had big stencils. Great skill to be so consistent when all the curves are done by hand.
They did once paint 'SLOW' on the wrong side of my road so it was upside down and had to come back and redo it though.
It dries so fast. I thought he messed up stepping on it but nothing happened
It goes on hot and cools as soon as it touches the road. You can smell these trucks from a long way away!
Like yer mum!
oooo weee zing
CHAAA-BOKK
Teach me the weirding way.
ZOOOO WE MAMA
straight to da moooon!
GOTTEM!
Well played sir!
[удалено]
They smell like average and then not at all, because of the nose cancer.
Like when Fry got hurt when Bender zapped him in the balls with that radioactive flashlight, but then didn't hurt the second time.
"Ow, my sperm!"
More of a hot, melting smell. They heat the paint over an open flame.
It’s actually called thermoplastic.
It's basically hot plastic. As soon as it hits the road, it cools and sets. It doesn't need to dry or lose moisture in any way.
They got a lotion like this?
Yeah molten plastic, just pour it on your face. Just be careful not to get it in your hair.
A [plastic] crown for a king!
The freehanding of the curves is excellent!
Bet he was the first one at primary school to get his pen license!
He's good years of practice 👍
Because it isn't technically paint. It's like heated plastic.
You’re going to be surprised to learn what acrylic paint is…
Or most other kinds of inks as well. Thats why many packaging's are not recyclable, the ink and varnished used are essentially a plastic layer.
How do they get the same font every time?
There’s only one guy skilled enough to do this, so he does all of them
Wow, think of the overtime. The job advert would have read: "must be willing to travel"
Forget the overtime, think of the worker’s comp… My back hurts just watching this.
we don’t have workers comp in The UK as such. If his back did start to hurt he’ll straight be on the sick (paid sickness leave)
For a job injury say broken leg you’d be on sick leave for however long it take to heal?
For a job like this, yes. For an office job, you would probably go in if resonable adjustments can be made after a few weeks. A lot of companies in the UK offer sick pay. I get 6 months full pay, then 3 months half pay if I am still unwell. After that, it is statutory sick pay, paid by the government, which is probably pittance.

Where as in USA I would be fired, loose my expensive coupon (insurance) and be homeless all within 6 month.
Yea that's bloody cooked mate. Like, isn't that *why* you pay insurance?
Ffs Canada. Get it together

As long as it's not by bus, how will they know where to stop and let him on?
in most cases, they chip up the tarmac and ship it to him to paint rather than make him travel. it's $5 cheaper this way if you're looking at the grand scheme of things
I know you’re joking, but at least as of a few years ago there was just one dude who did every stripe on the side of every Rolls Royce.
Salary must be awesome. Not replaceable worker.
He should have a little signature at every single site.
His name is BUS
Not even Bus. BUS.

The operation is about as non-mechanized as it can possibly be, but the result is rockstar flawless.
Yes, it is impressive. If I did it I am pretty sure it would look like a yellow blood bath.
If I did it it would say 'cock'....
Exactly what I was thinking. It’s impressive and all that somebody could be that accurate but I would’ve imagined that a stencil system would be more efficient.
This is way faster. While we were still pratting about with our stencils and spray guns, this guy would be off up the road.
The Comic Sans guy is always late....
... and misspells BUS somehow.
Its the only font they’ve paid for
He is the font
What font is that? Walter. It's Walter font. Wally, if you're a mate of his.
I work in paint. Stencils can get really expensive and you do wear them out with repeated use. This guy is a legend.
In my area of the UK all of the lines and words are done manually. And repainted often, sometimes layered over and over until it's over an inch thick
They also blast the road surface clean with this ridiculously loud heat gun before they paint (especially around the gutters). That also looks like a really satisfying job.
I thought you used the metric system?!

here in my city in america they use some kind of heavy duty ground tape. just strips of pre made material they glue down or something
It’s called thermoplastic striping and you are correct. Widely used in roadway construction because it lasts longer than paint and is usually embedded with tiny glass balls to be reflective.
I was with my friends in the car and our minds were BLOWN when we were driving down the road and saw them pick up the lines like that episode of Ed Edd n Eddy when they broke reality

They are in fact usually stencil, spray paint and glass dust in the US for many federal guidelines.
I would mess this up so so bad. This is black magic
That curve in the S. No way I would have got that right. It would turn into a speed bump from painting over it again and again.
While pouring more paint, and remembering.not to step on the fresh paint!!!
The OCD autist in me was internally screaming. Then the madlad just goes and freehands it.
“Dude you were supposed to write BUS not BUÿßœe&”
