We check that the base of the block is completely removed and the condition of pillars as everything evolves... We use this info on damages when later all this is modeled in 3D Finite Element packages... So when we model we want to replicate the same things we see inside the mine in the software to make sure the model is consistent.

Set the bar a little high with that photo, didn't you? No one wants to see a Rolex next to a an Excel spreadsheet and a stapler now.

Great photo, though. Looks like an interesting profession.

Hey Shawn,
If you ever arrest me, please ask me to remove my watch before you handcuff me? That handcuff is a ding waiting to happen. I'd be cool with zip-tie cuffs though.

PS: you should seriously get a red/blue Pepsi GMT for work.

Only when I work certain overtime details. I will probably wear it more often when I get my Everest rubber band.

Red & Blue Pepsi, very appropriate

I usually wear one of my many G-Shock watches to work, but I can't get enough of my LVC. Plus, it matches my uniform.
