Health and Safety Madness

And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014 -
At an old gig they would assign random people to help with health and safety checks.
I got asked to spend a day going round checking all the fire doors would open. Made a change and got full pay for the day so didnt mind.
Some of the doors were hard to open. One I couldnt open at all, even with full force kicks.
So I got brownie points for finding a door that couldnt be opened.
Funny old world.Comment

Do they insist on reverse parking? Apparently most car park accidents are caused by people reversing when leaving site, the data on how many are caused by reversing into the space in the first place wasn't available.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 JohnsonComment
