    Boomed (ouch)

    Interview in Cheshire yesterday, offered the role at interview. Quite chuffed.

    Got a coffee for the journey back - lid came off while driving and a large amount of REALLY hot coffee exploded all over me. Got a burn on my leg. My own fault for attempting to drink it while driving, but, not chuffed.
    Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

    Don't drink and drive.
    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

        Can you not sue someone? The person who sold it must have known the risks, did they not warn you?

        Congrats BTW
        Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

            Do tell us the company. I want to avoid buying their products or service. Anyone who hires someone who does stupid things like that is bound to be an unreliable supplier.
            How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                  Congrats.

                  Wish I could find a role in cheshire. I wouldn't have to do the Monday to Friday thing in London then. Nevertheless, best of luck.

                    I worked with a lass who used to smoke. She gave it up after she was driving once, attempted to chuch the fag end out of the window, without realising it was closed. She came to the conclusion that 80mph on the A1, with your tights on fire probably indicates that smoking really is bad for your health.
