Same here, although I avoid deliberate contact. The only effect it has had on me if I've forgotten to use barrier cream is temporarily dry skin - same as for plaster or lime. It may even be that the dry skin is caused by washing my hands more often than normal whilst using these products (more recently, I've switched to just rinsing them).
No such thing someone who is exhibiting stupidity is being stupid at that moment. Go read the book.

Well it is obviously just a complete cover up. To me it is the result of a long night of passion, resulting with the inevitable carpet burns !

The evidence is all around us.
As I understand it NVQ assessor should be actually working in the job they are assessing and at a level above the top of the NVQ. Not just a useless paper pushing box ticker.
Must be pretty crap "engineering". She does not appear to have the intelligence or the capability of a shop floor worker and she certainly cannot be an engineer.

They could do with using that sign on the self service tills in Morrisons.
During the last 'panic buy petrol' crisis there was a woman teacher who used a vacuum cleaner to suck petrol from a cars fuel tank. One of those vacuum cleaners with a brush motor...
Looking at the picture of the sack, it says it is self-levelling compound, which may well behave differently from cement.

During the petrol shortage in the early 70s, I ran a small motorcycle, and thought it was worth siphoning a little out of the tank to put on one side as a buffer stock.
Whilst I was in the garage doing this, with a manual siphon pump, the connecting door to the house slid open, as my (then) wife thrust the loudly whirring upright Hoover into the doorway.
My vociferous response was deemed to be "overreaction" :-(

The report did refer to lime in the mix and lime is much worse than mere cement.
Jo Brand. An absolutely ghastly women.
I switch channels whenever she appears these days.
That's the bunnny! Not!
Ditto.
Having seen the photos I have come to the conclusion that her knees (post cement) are her most attractive feature.
Heheheh
There was a bloke in Southend-on-Sea who was working in a lock-up, in the black as a motor mechanic. He was working on a top-of-the-range Jaguar at the time and decided to vacuum up some spilt petrol....

Isn't she really John Sergeant in drag?
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember "ARWadsworth" saying something like:
Holy s*it.
What is it with people standing chatting in the middle of the aisles in Morrisons? I know they do it in all shops but for some reason Morrisons seems worse - the old dears just stand there and block the whole aisle and are immune to all but a good hard shove with a trolley[1].

Many years ago my uncle Dick welded up a leaking fuel tank for a friend. He set the cleaner on blow and left it for an hour to flush the fumes out.
A few days later the friend comes back - there's a pinhole still leaking. Dick tells his friend that he's busy but that if he sets it up he'll come out in a bit and weld it up.
Friend goes down garden and - yes - leaves cleaner on suck.
Surprisingly loud bang, apparently.
