When I was running an engineering project we had an old school machinist in charge of the machine shop, that old guy would hit of the power kill buttons in the shop that would stop all motors every-time some suit wearing a tie would walk into the shop. Don't really know if he was that safety conscious or just saw visitors to his shop as being a waste of time.
