Worked in a shop for a very short period where the so called foreman thought it was perfectly fine to have a 3 phase welding machine spliced to a power cord about 30' long... laying across the floor spliced together with Mar connectors and electrical tape. To add to the problem, the extension cord was hard wired into the junction box, so if, uh, when there was a problem, you couldn't even unplug the cord.

What's scariest though is that the owners of the company were so clueless and never fired the guy for putting several peoples lives at risk!!!
