I know your joking, but this sounds like something my boss would have us do running conduit. I remember one time we needed to put up a bunch of supports and he gave us like 1/10th of the bolts we needed and said, "just make it look like it's supported, this is cutting into my bonus." This was also inside of a plant. Dude made an insane amount of money in bonuses and paid all of his employees really poorly.
All that would accomplish is me getting fired. Pretty sure he's part owner in the company and friends with just about everyone at the plant and has been working there forever. There is so much worse shit I should have reported, but I don't see it accomplishing much and everyone in the industrial electrical field knows each other. The fact that there aren't inspectors in industrial is actually crazy.
This is plants that don't follow most rules and I'm pretty sure you have to go to OSHA, but I would never trust that. Sounds like a great way to get blackballed.

I’m not a plumber, but that seems like so much more work than going around no? A fucking elbow and some glue?
