Like the title says, what’s one, or multiple weird shits you have to do at work.
I’ll start. Once every year, or three times a year since I was in Korea, I had to experience the gas chamber. Like the name says, you enter a close room full of CS gas with a pro mask on. Take it off, make you wait a minute or two till you can’t hold your breath anymore, and an NCO comes to you and you had to give full name and rank, put it back on and walk out the chamber.
Shit burns like the dickens. I’ll admit though, it does clear the sinuses.
Weekly safety briefs. I'm pretty sure everything gets more dangerous afterward out of spite.

I never minded the gas chamber, but, like Fly said, not being able to tell ppl what you really think of them (true in most any job, but legally punishable in the Army)!always got on my nerves.
Did they find out that stuff has long term consequences yet? Seems like they always have a new "Our bad, this was actually a LOT worse down the line then we thought".

CS gas has been used for so long, from the Military to the Police Force. There might be some long term concequences, but I’ve yet to hear anything of it.
Or knowing the government, they probably killed any story related to it.
Heard a story about a guy that went through BT around the same time I did that had a bad reaction to the gas and damaged his lungs. I think he was left with around 25% lung capacity.
At least that was the story we were told by our RDC's. they could have been f@#king with us.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
Mandatory password resets. Especially annoying if there's nothing particularly sensitive or irreplaceable in there.

However, humans are weird meat bags. Usually, you recover fully within days. No long term cases of reduced "lung-capacity" that I could find and research is underway to determine the long term effects to exposure to tear gas.
Basically, high unlikely but I wouldn't rule out the possibility that, yes, indeed, someone had a weird reaction and lost "long capacity."
