After the summer, the temperature continued to soar, with the highest temperature approaching 39°c in some areas of our province。
There is nothing worse in the barbeque model than outdoor workers who must act as “stave under high temperatures”. But there are also a group of people who are “lucky” out of the heat of the sun, with no heat, and who can be said to work in a very cool environment. But are these cold occupations as good as you think
On 23 and 24 july, journalists of the shanxi evening newspaper visited, inter alia, several special professions, such as ice porters, freezers, garage managers and oceanographers。
Ice porter
The ice bar weighs 50 kilos and is vulnerable to damage
On 23 july, at 2 p. M., a reporter from the shanxi evening newspaper walked into the storage centre of the tundra ice factory and met with master chen, the ice porter. The 40-year-old master chen and his colleagues were busy in front of the ice storage depot. The truck waiting for the ice strip was parked outside the warehouse door. Through the gate, a thin “mog” can be seen on the warehouse floor。
A reporter from shanxi night's news followed master chen into the freezer with a blurry eye, waiting a few seconds later for the fog to blow away and a full line of high-string ice to appear. Access to the freezer from a high temperature of more than 30 degrees celsius outside the room immediately caused the body to feel very cool and comfortable, but less than a minute later, it became clear that shanxi night's reporter felt cold to the extreme and felt cold air coming from all sides. The cold wind is not as stingy as the winter wind, but the cold feels the same in the face and in the body, as the ice water can't get out of it. Mr. Chan, hurry up and greet the reporter from shanxi night。
The lifting and defusing of ice are the main tasks of master chen, who enters the sky, with rapidly high temperatures and a surge in the volume of ice bars. Every day, trucks bring ice strips to the freezer, each carrying more than 200 ice bars and weighing 50 kg each. As soon as the car arrives, either in the middle of the sun or in the middle of the night, master chen must begin work。
According to master chen, he has been working on ice removal for three years and, through specially designed ice pliers, is largely able to control the ice with precision and move it quickly from the freezer to the van. But after all, the ice is not small, and it's a little slippery to transport, and it's not easy to lose sight of it or to break your feet. "you see, this bruise was cut yesterday when you carried the ice." master chen took off his shoes and only saw injuries on the back of his feet which were clear and blue。
However, in the view of master chen, these minor injuries are nothing, and the greatest test is “cold”. “the temperature of the freezer is 6°c and it is almost 40°c outside, which is so cold and hot that it is difficult to wear clothes, too cold in the freezer if it's thin, too thick to work and too sweaty.” master chen said that he was particularly vulnerable to illness by mixing his clothes with sweat. In this job, if you don't wear the right clothes, you get a cold。
Cold storage
Repeated access to cold, hot environments prone to rheumatism
In comparison to the climate in which the temperature of the ice lift is close to 50°c, the temperature of the work of the cooler should be greater, with the upgraded version of “ice fires”。
On 24 july, at 3 p. M., hot sun inflammation occurred, but the maximum temperature was only 18°c in freezer no. 5 under the banner of taiharada and food group ltd. The cold-storage manager wang, in thick cotton pants, entered the freezer to count the goods. Less than 10 minutes later, his hands had been frozen somewhat unheeded and had to be punched and loosed。
“from 7:30 a. M. To 7:30 a. M., with a two-hour noon break, then back to work in the afternoon. At the latest till 4:00 a. M. It's really bad when i'm writing the manifests with my hands shaking, and basically i'm going out in 10 to 20 minutes. It's not easy to put gloves on, so we're basically not wearing gloves because we have to go faster。
Mr. Leung, a colleague of master wang, told the shanxi evening journalist that he had been working here for five years, that hot summers were the most difficult times for them, and that it was much more painful to enter cold storage in summer than winter. Because the temperature varies so much in the summer, it's close to 50°c, it's cold, it's cold, it's cold, it's hot, it's hard to eat, it's long, it's hand joints, leg joints, etc。
“the hotter the weather, the bigger the workload. We wear cotton pants every time we enter the freezer. Upon return from work, use the ginger soup to bubble your feet and force some cold air out, which is done every day, otherwise it will feel painful in the rain. Some young people don't notice, they'll get sick when they get old。
The shanxi evening news reporter learned that the cold storage under taiharada and food corporation ltd. Is one of the largest cold storage banks in taiwon city today, with wang shifu and liang xiaojiang in cold storage number five, six floors, two cold storage floors, one 2,000 square metre, and 2,000 tons of cargo. In the summer of inflammation, the amount of frozen goods entering and leaving the warehouse per day was over 3,000 tons. In order to provide the citizens of taiwon with safe and secure ice-cream products, more than 150 workers, like wang master and liang siu si, were held in silence in cold-chain storage positions。
Ground-departer garage administrator
Long-term inhalation of car exhausts can cause respiratory diseases
On 24 july, at 7. 20 a. M., it was mid-sentine street in provincial city and northern state. Thirty logistics personnel are queuing for roll-calls in preparation for a day of work. Some of these people are dedicated to the garage. The garage seems to be a better place to get out of the car than it is in the “big heat” outside。
There are 345 parking spaces in the underground parking lot on central sky street, and it has been over a year since the 55-year-old master worked as a vault manager and was responsible for the day-to-day direction of the vehicle to park near. When he heard the word “good places”, he said, “yes, work is not tired, and the place is cool, and there is no sun. But it's no place to go, no one talks, no sunlight."
In fact, the vault is not “good place” for a section master, mainly because of the harm caused to the human body by car exhaust. The presence of carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and solid particles that have adverse effects on humans in exhaust gases exacerbates the poisoning of humans。
The master told shanxi's evening reporter, "long-term inhalation of car exhaust, easy coughing, causing respiratory illness." following the master's journey to the vault, there's a clear change in breathing: the lower he breathes, the lower he breathes, the more bored his chest, it seems that there's something on his chest that you can breathe easily outside, but it seems that there's a clear resistance here when you suck half。
The teacher said that the most obvious feeling he had at the beginning of the job was that he was “sufficient, miserable and then disgusting”. "the process lasted about a month or two, and then became used to it." in 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year, the master spent 4368 hours of 365 days a year in this environment。
In order to reduce vehicle exhaust inhalation, part of the master often sits in the windway of the garage and wears a one-time mask to provide as much protection as possible。
During the conversation, vehicles came in from time to time, while the master was in a hurry to guide the vehicle to the nearest empty space, and he was in a hurry to travel back and forth between the vehicles, and in a hurry, he ran off, and when the chain of vehicles was completed, the face of the teacher was already a little red and his breath was a little unstable. Finding the right location for the vehicle and saving the time of the owner of the vehicle will be repeated dozens of times a day。
The marine hall actor
He's got a scar on his leg
On 23 july, at 3 p. M., in the “mermaids theatre” of the western cube marine park of the middle east subregion, beautiful mermaids are displaying their dances and playing closely with marine life, causing many of their little friends to grow their mouths in a state of shock. Cool, mysterious, dreamy, beautiful is what we think most about the mermaid. What about the work behind its role
The water temperature of the marine hall is 25°c and the normal temperature range for the human body is 36. 1°c-37°c, and early showers are necessary to reduce body temperature for safer performance. The role-player of the mermaids, who had just come ashore and had his body squeaky, said to the late shanxi newspaper, “the body cooled by 10 degrees centigrade before it went down, and the outside was more than 10 degrees centigrade after the performance, which was particularly painful for the skin.”
Sometimes, in order to meet the needs of tourists, wang performs up to four shows per day for five minutes each. She did six performances in the pool, one of which was performed with a very high physical cost. It happens when you accidentally choked and drank from the water in the pool, “since the water in the pool is proportional to the proportion of the sea water, drinking in the mouth is like drinking in the sea water, sometimes not eating one day.” xiao wang told shanxi that the evening reporter。
In the performance pool, not only herself, but also hundreds of species of fish, which are very close to her as a result of frequent watering, “sometimes they are bitten by fish and usually do not bleed”. Little wang said she pointed a scar on her arm at a reporter in shanxi. Because of the corrosive effect of the seawater on the wound, the wounds from the swelling of the skin are extremely difficult to heal, and she is constantly immersed in the sea, her hair is often wet and prone not only to cold, but also to water-pressed ears。
After the show, wang simply took a shower and put on skin protection, and she said that it was bad for skin because it was in water for a long time. Many years of performance in the water caused disease to her leg joint, and she said that it would hurt when it rains. " the leg joint is like a weather forecast, and the first thing to go home from work every day is to put hot towels on your legs, so it's comfortable." wang told shanxi the evening reporter. Because of the love of dance and the great interest in water, wang spoke frankly of these difficulties。
Reporter's handwritten
Inflammation summers, every occupation in high temperatures is fraught with hardship. In paying tribute to the “suspension of heat”, it is equally important to give applause to those special professions who are at low temperatures. Ice carts, cold-storey silos, ground-departers, oceanographers... They are just the tip of the iceberg of a special occupation, and there are many hard-working workers who have worked hard and risklessly. They also face many unknown difficulties。
It is the millions of workers who, in their ordinary jobs, with their unheard actions, sing for us a moving song of ice and fire。
On this summer, let's say to each and every worker who stands by -- thank you
