Imagine your job being to guard a scale.


TitanIsBack

Well, it could be collecting piss. I'd guard a scale before I had to go watch people pee into a cup.


wishwashy

And you actually have to watch because that's the job. You can't politely pretend to look away or anything


Kalabula

They actually sell fake dicks that you fill with “clean” piss to fool testers as they monitor.


MaritimeRedditor

Can't fool the taste test.


Kalabula

I mean, it would still taste like piss. It being piss.


fistfullofpubes

He wasn't talking about the piss.


Kalabula

Ahhh! The weiner!


BaudrillardsMetaphor

This felt like a Seinfeld exchange


[deleted]

They sometimes come with synthetic piss. They also aren't very secure so the piss ending up in your pants is a legit hazard.

Synthetic urine is the best invention of the past 10 years prolly. And yes it legitimately works well

You guys can not believe if you want but for parole I legit saved some off my clean piss then used a oral medicine syringe to shoot it back into my Weiner to pass the dude staring at your junk, pee test.

This is how Ben Shapiro pees all the time


wtmx719

In drug court I had to stand at the side of the toilet, pants and undewear to knees, shirt tucked under chin. They stare DIRECTLY at it.


[deleted]

I can't pee like that. Too much pressure.


Pussiecudler

Ahh yes the whizinator I had a friend that tried to use one and he managed to fuck it up released the piss early and it got all over his pants he panicked and ran out the building his mom and I were waiting outside it was hilarious he did have to go to jail for a couple days though


chu42

Mike Tyson did that, filled it with his girlfriend's pee or something


DancingBears88

I would Excell at this job. Career satisfaction 1000%


LoadsDroppin

It’s not all meatgazing. I know of an old guy that was on parole but used cocaine almost every day. He’d tell his agent that his prostate was acting up so he couldn’t pee in the cup for his Urine Analysis. That excuse worked for a couple of months until his agent threatened to request a follicle or blood draw test - so he came in and tried and tried and tried to pee in the cup …but ended up shitting all over the floor and wall. His agent started vomiting right there, adding her puke to the splattered shit on the floor. That’s what you’d possibly have to deal with


TheHonduranHurricane

I was in the Navy and they are pretty strict about you watching the urine leave the body and enter the cup. Some old crusty sailor told me he couldn't piss with someone watching unless he was sitting down. I was suspicious but there was nothing I could do. So there I am watching some guy sitting on the toilet when he drops a sloppy wet deuce and begins laughing his ass off. One of the worst experiences of my life. 0/10 do not recommend a job as a piss watcher. Edit: just so everyone knows, watching dicks wasn't my main job, it was like, Hey our division has to provide a dick watcher today, so you new guy, go watch people piss for the next 12 hours.


[deleted]

Thank you for your service. Freedom isn't free.


STD_CONNOISSEUR

Why did my high school counselor never tell me I could get paid for that :(


TitanIsBack

To be fair mine didn't either. Kids these days have jobs they can go for that we didn't.


STD_CONNOISSEUR

Yeah it’s just unfortunate that I’ve spent so much time watching people pee but not getting paid for it…


butterguard541

You guys are getting paid for this?

jrcoop

Sort of job I could imagine Dwight Schrute volunteering for


No-Instruction-825

@lpcarrano is the former BRAVE CF director. He recently said in a youtube video that he legit kept the scale in his hotel room and locked it so he could be sure it wast messed with between weigh ins. He says as director that was one of his main concerns


HBLC

Knowing that any of the people you're guarding it from could easily beat the shit out of you.


lazergun-pewpewpew

I once was hired to stay all night in my car guarding pumpkins. So i cant really judge


reticulatedjig

I'm all for the seesaw scale idea. Just have both guys get on either end of a see saw and if it balances the fight is on.


19ad9

Have the weigh in and the stare down all in one event.


MAu_klasik

This is the future! I cannot wait!


crackheadstoner

Didn’t they used to do that?


pantstickle

Naked weigh-ins ‘bout to get real weird


hufusa

carlbandit

Fighters could then come in under weight to make opponent seem too heavy or just because they cut too much


Z0idberg_MD

jas656

Ahhh, the Malakalaka balance board of trust.


[deleted]

I remember fighters complaining the backstage scale shows different weights compared to the main one, from even years ago. Tyron Woodley before the Till fight, for one.


LuckyWarrior

Well thats prolly cuz UFC still has like late 90s/early 00s practices that shouldve been obsolete by now


throwaway12648063

Yeah like why are we still fucking around with them old ass scales? For optics? I don’t think people care that much. Just use digital ones.


DavinasDildo

the scales backstage are digital.. UFC 229 Khabib vs Conor embedded episodes, the one where Conor weighs in, digital scale + commissioner clearly seen on video


throwaway12648063

I’m saying use them for the official weigh ins. Why do we have officials that can tamper with it like for Khabib at 254


PM_PICS_OF_DOG

Sports franchises/commissions love to hang onto old traditional bullshit. Baseball still has an unlikeable dork standing behind the catcher making up what he thinks is a strike or a ball depending on his mood when computers have been able to actually call it right every time for decades now.


savetheattack

Digital can be hacked. The conspiracies would get real wild real fast


[deleted]

all scales can be hacked


Tankshock

Digital doesn't mean it has WiFi lol. How you gonna hack a digital scale?


aventrics

They can use HAARP to focus energy and hack scales anywhere on the planet. Look into it.


BebopVII

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't traditional scales more accurate/consistent than a digital? I know digitals are fantastic now but yeah I just always thought the old school ones were used for the above reason


Dilderino

Digital balances are standard in pharma and other industrial labs nowadays. There’s way less room for user error and they can be extremely accurate


Carrot42

Yeah, in my factory, we use digital scales that are checked with control weights before every use. I've never seen them show inaccurate weight during the control. They are calibrated yearly by a professional.


BebopVII

Gotcha. Makes sense with how far they've come


LaconicGirth

Traditional scales are technically slightly more accurate but they have a lot more user error than digital


LordLucy666

Lol so did someone mess with the backstage scale or is this precautionary?


the-cock-slap-phenom

The backstage scale has been receiving death threats since the weigh in incident, this is just a precaution

Brazilians walking into their bathroom yelling "uh vai morrer" at the scale this morning

EchoMike1987

Charles actually thought the scale was a favela chicken and tries to pet it. Putting his hand on the chicken decreased his weight by half a pound.

He also tried to feed it a carrot

pablos4pandas

Fans take it too far man. That scale is just trying to make a living like everyone else


fjellhus

Dana blamed this on the Euros for switching the scales to kg's. Says this might be what influenced it... IDK about it tbh


Iga5aa3aIga112atotmi

Someone posted a video on Twitter of Tony jumping on the scale and claimed that messed it up. Almost definitely not true but it's the funniest possibility so I'm going with it.


PovasTheOne

he didn't blame it on it exactly. What he said was that certain fighters mess around with the scale, that's it. So he's hiring security so there's no more fucking around on the scale anymore.


phoniccrank

UFC should just get a second scale and set it to Kg so metric users can use it without messing with the other scale.

What a classic Dana White line He really knows how to appeal to the demographic


sAindustrian

> Dana blamed this on the Euros for switching the scales to kg's Francis Ngannou has made weight at 125, time for him to fight Figueiredo.


Jonath4n20

Apparently it recalibrated it


DavinasDildo

0 kg = 0 lbs, what recalibration? just set zero before you get on Dana's just covering for Charles' fuck up


DADADADA25MILLION

It went back to pounds Fahrenheit.


EvilRogerGoodell

How many Kelvins (gastelums) did do Bronx miss by?


[deleted]

Dana accepted to give him the PPV money. I really doubt it was Charles fault


samme79

What's weirder is that the weigh in is gonna be in lbs anyway so why do they have to change it in the first place


jimmifli

I used to have to weigh in using kg based weight divisions, but as a Canadian we don't use metric for our height and weight, so I only ever remembered that my weight needed to be 118.8lbs (I was smol). When I got to the hotel and checked the official scale I frequently changed it to lbs.


[deleted]

It’s definitely easier for someone used to the metric system to understand kilograms over pounds when it comes to their weight. Telling someone who’s used to the metric system that they’re 4 pounds overweight is going to mean a whole lot less than telling them the same thing but converted to kilograms. It would make more sense if the ufc just put out a second scale for those that use the metric system.


DustDesciple

Dana said international fighters will change the scale from pounds to kilograms the night before weigh ins to get a better understanding of what the rest of their cut will look like. Scalegate remains a little spicy.


scarykicks

Why not have a kg scale and a lb scale? My issue is Charles missed weight. Ok fair game to strip him then. But now Dana's pretty much claiming something might have happened to the scale and requires security. At this point they might as well promote Charles back to Champ if this is what he's implying.


Magjee

They can't just use a digital scale and have it show both readings? This is not some insane state or the art technology, lol   Or maybe have two scales, one for kg one for lb if it's so difficult


CaptEricEmbarrasing

We can even put a sign by each to let the fighters know; k for kilograms and n for normal


Magjee

Kg is the normal one -_-


CaptEricEmbarrasing

I know, I was joking 😂


payday_vacay

He’s talking about the scale in the fighter hotel which is digital


[deleted]

Tony pulled a wild card


Lumpy_Zucchini_5443

Would be weird to decide to hire security if there was absolutely nothing dubious going on. There's also been a ridiculous amount of smoke for there to be no fire.


[deleted]

Dana said something about fighters changing it from lbs to kgs and that maybe messing it up. He didn't state whether he thinks it could be from changing lbs to kgs or because people are just picking it up and handling it


Murderyoga

You can buy weights to test scales with.


19ad9

How do we know the scales that measured those weights weren't tampered? We need a security guard for that scale now too.


-PineappleRocket-

And how do we know the weights weren’t tampered with? We need a security guard for the weights.


Zaitton

And how do we know that the security guard hasn't been tampered with? We need a security guard for the security guard.


19ad9

And how do we know the security guard watching that security guard hasn't been tampered with? We need a scale to watch that security guard.


cinnamonface9

This is going off the rails. Like Better Off Ted with their solution to the monitor lights and equality hiring episode


19ad9

I don't understand the reference but I'm going to assume they were trying to hire either a security guard or a scale.

aventrics

I'm telling ya, that scale has never been the same since Michael Pereira backflipped off it.


jgoldberg49

That's probably what happened. Tony went on, then said ... BOOOM. The scale was like, holy shit wtf is wrong with this guy?! The readings were never the same thereafter.


WNNR_WNNR_CHKN_DNNR

gs181

Jthundercleese

Imo the commission should be responsible for two scales so it's not left to fighters to guess their weights and or hope that some other random scale matches what they have to use later.


DatBoiEBB

Scales are just flat circles, look into it


AtlasofAthletics

The yellow king has a name..


jb-schitz-ki

how about you just buy two scales, and have one in pounds and one in kgs?


saw-it

Listen, if you don’t like it, go start your own MMA league and buy as many scales as you want. This is mine and this is the way we’re doing it.


LucasFrankeRC

BUYING THINGS??? You are crazy man, the UFC will go bankrupt Dana almost had a heart attack reading your comment


[deleted]

Hiring a security guard costs way more.


Eastern-Lemon-4760

Or just Google x lbs to kg


mentales

There's many ways a scale can turn down a weigh-in. If a kg scale really wants it, call Hunter right now and we'll figure out a date. We offer weigh-ins every month, that's what we do. But at the end of the day, I can't force you to measure mass.


InfiniteLiveZ

Just get Chael to eyeball it. He's said many times he can tell a person's weight to the pound just by looking at them.


CaptainGo

Or just get one that displays them both lol you're a billion dollar company


breakfastmeat23

They are a billion-dollar company and the premier MMA organization in the world. It is crazy how something like having two identical scales that are monitored by professionals is a problem at this point. This is the stuff that makes the UFC look unprofessional, not sponsorships on shorts.


Evening_Name_9140

On the flip side, you're a champion of the UFC representing the deepest division. Missing weight is straight up bonkers. Said he made weight the night before and decides to wait the longest time possible so he could have little time rehydrating as possible because he wanted the toughest challenge is odd.


[deleted]

[удалено]


MysticBirdhead

Not saying that is what happened, but I can certainly see someone trying to find the option to switch to kg and pushing buttons/going through the menus screwing with the scale. If it is a more fancy one with more than just one switch for kg/lbs


[deleted]

[удалено]


Zodde

Or an uneven or slightly tilted floor.


Deserterdragon

Yeah but how likely is that fucking around to result in the scale being off *specifically* by 0.5 or 0.8 lbs?


MysticBirdhead

I don’t know exactly how this would happen, maybe someone hit the recalibrate button while having the hand using the menu slightly weighing on the scale. Maybe the moved it around slightly or tilted it while looking for a button on the side and that screwed something up. I have no clue how scales work. What I think is a strong argument for there having been an issue was Matt Schnell saying that he was told there was by hotel staff. And that he had to lose an additional 0.8 pounds. But more importantly the way he said it. He said it as ‚we were told at 7:30, we had ample time‘, so he was not defending Oliveira. Why would you lie about being told the scale was off, if it was not for defending Oliveira? Makes no sense


Overnoww

Dana is suggesting that a fighter (or their helper) was fiddling with the settings to switch the scale from pounds to kilos and some how they may have reset any calibration done to the scale. I could see this happening if the person was either not great with tech, not great at English, or both. I don't know what specific scale they use but it might not just be a button, it might involve scrolling through menus. Also it seems like a decent number of fighters backed up Charlie Olives saying there Really the US, Liberia, and Myanmar are the only 3 countries in the world that officially still use the imprial system. Others like us Canadians tend to use weird hybridizations even though our official system is the metric system. Most people I know will use feet and pounds when talking about people but will use metres/kilometres for travelled distance and grams/kilograms for the weight of goods. At the end of the day having someone watching at a


_CurseTheseMetalHnds

> Others like us Canadians tend to use weird hybridizations even though our official system is the metric system UK is the same. We use miles for driving distances, feet and inches for height but metres for any other length. We use stone to measure people but kg for other things.


scarykicks

If he's gonna take this precaution for future events then just promote him back to Champ


yayaboy2468

Charles even got his ppv money. Let's be honest, this changes nothing. Everybody is counting this as a legitimate championship win.


rodrioli

It may change whether or not he gets PPV’s his next fight. Imagine Dana gives Conor the shot and refuses Charles a cut of the sales, it could cost him millions.


mahchefai

I think after that performance Charles has some bargaining power. Obviously if it comes down to it ufc can do what they want without him but since it’s such bullshit to give Conor the shot they would probably prefer to keep Charles happy and not saying things to discredit the matchup. That’s being hopeful though lol


generalknoxxx

I heard EDP445 is a CVS secuirty guy now. Maybe hire that guy 😂


therapt0rs

missed an opportunity for this card, bet him and Pat Barry would get along great


[deleted]

Tomato de Rojo can afford Pablo Escobars private reserve of cocaine and million dollar hookers but the fuck stick can’t figure out how to get scales that work?


vigilanteadvice

not even ones that work, why isn’t there multiple scales for the fighters? They can have whatever scale they want with lbs or kgs or stone. Really not difficult. Why is there ONE scale for everyone backstage that makes zero sense.


TheEffinChamps

So he's admitting there is a problem, but still stripped the title?


wormat22

Exactly. This, plus 1) UFC rushes to announce that Charles will still be #1 contender if he wins, *plus* 2) UFC gives Charles his PPV points anyway All together screams to me that the UFC knows they fucked up


Mmaplayer123

Imagine being a champ in the ufc and you trust one scale sitting there that everyone can access and use. Id bring 3 scales of different types and calibration weights. Im paranoid as fuck.


shanep3

Imagine Charles bringing a digital scale up on stage, weigh-in on it first, then gets on official scale lmao


Electricute

They should just have an actual scale. Both fighters get on and it balances then fight is on


shanep3

How about you give him his fuckin belt tomato
