Today I was issued with my personal safety card, handed down by our well-meaning HR department (see posts passim for the reasons for this.)
To be honest, anybody who doesn't know this stuff already really needs to be removed from the gene pool as a matter of urgency.
"Telephone calls at work
DO NOT become involved in a conversation if the caller is an activist"
Well, duh...
"Travelling in the vicinity of a demonstration
DO keep your windows and doors locked
DO drive past the site if there are no Police present"
Again I say, duh...
Speaking of the whole egg sucking thing; in truth I've never had the courage to ask my grandmother if she knows how to suck eggs. I'm marginally terrified that the response might be a crooked toothless smile and the words "Well, your grandfather never had any complaints dear..."
A mental image I could do without.
