  2. The one with the tyre explodes make me shudder. I've seen the aftermath of someone inflating an aircraft tyre with an unregulated nitrogen supply. Not pretty. Also one airline installed a steel cage in the hangar to inflate tyres in, only to wander past one day to see an apprentice inflating one. Whilst sat inside the cage on the tyre

  3. Well everything electrical generates heat, a glue gun (depending on the type) is up to around 200c,which is well below the sort of temperatures required to actually set fire to anything (233C for paper, 400+ for wood). But what they did was outsource the HS handbook to another company, who sent around two clueless young office girls to do the risk assessments, probably never even seen a glue gun before. Honestly I was sat there working on some equipment, live mains running through a PCB upside down on my bench, all exposed, i'm wearing a stupid lab coat that we HAVE to wear when visitors are around, one that catches on stuff and badly restricts movement making it impossible to get hands above shoulder height and near impossible to get away from anything should it explode, but they were clueless, totally clueless, just looking for the standard text book rubbish that would only apply in an office. They also failed to spot that the new LED lighting was inadequate for working with components the size of a grain of sand, but the idiot in a suit that designed the lighting said that we had "the same light as required in a normal office", well news flash this isn't an office....... Ultimately they don't give a damn if someone gets hurt, as long there is someone else to take blame. Even if that person is just someone who memorised a health and safety text book and passed a few tests.... In a classroom. Sounds like a rant, but i'm just sick and tired of UK corporate BS and clueless people somehow being put into jobs they should not be doing, idiots promoting bigger idiots, because an even bigger idiot is no threat to their position.

  6. Negotiations have commenced but there are many significant hurdles. Brexit negotiations would be easier. Will continue to talk but there may well be brinkmanship from the opposition and unreasonable demands made. Will drop you a note nearer the time if success is achievable!
