OK.
Was out watering the garden and the chilli plants are covered in fruit, so I picked some, cut them up and put them in the dehydrator.
made sure I washed my hands thoroughly afterwards. Guess not thoroughly enough.
Went to the toilet, even used the knife hand not the hand that was holding the chillies.
Fkn OWWWWWWW  
I'm using gloves next time

Why?
Pissing in the kitchen sink was the problem.

Dickheads who allow their dogs to roam free at night. I was bitten by a mongrel last night whilst coming home and stopped to talk to a neighbour. 400 bucks and 3 hours later I was out of casualty. The pharmacist who owns it offerred me free bandages. No I want the money. The same mutt bit a kid last week. 8 punctures on 2 feet. His bitch had 5 puppies and he couldn't give them away so they roam the streets although he feeds them.Stinking hot and can;t go for a swim.

man flu.
Started going down hill Saturday, felt very average on Sunday, poor yesterday and damn near called in crook this morning but went in.
There's some virus going round, not flu as such but something that's been knocking over people at work for an average 2-3 days at a time. I've had a steady procession of people through my office in the past 3 weeks snuffling, coughing and generally looking like shit, the bastards finally got me.
got on the cold and flu tabs yesterday, this morning woke up and couldn't stop shivering. Even a hot shower didn't do it.
made it through most of the day thanks to Codral and Caffeine. Hit the wall big time by 3pm.
bought some red bull for the next couple of days, I'll sip at that during the day and hope.

I am not surprised. I did a 9001 auditors course a few years back as part of my early retirement severance package. 6 of the students were over from Tasmania doing the course to be NBN quality augitors. The thing was actually being rolled out and they had asked for volunteers form a son to be disestablished arm of Telstra. They treated the 2 weeks as a holiday and turned up hungover or late everyday. None had ever worked with Quality assurance or in a technical related area. They were mostly from the retail side. The NBN was closing the stable door. It is too late if the original product being rolled out is flawed.
The Ombudsnan is a great idea. It costs you nothing and the company pays all costs unless it was malicious complaint. An Optus employee in an Indian call centre told me I could hold my internet for 12 months for 5 dollars a month and reconnect within days when I returned to OZ. This was not the case and they wanted 5000 bucks of me when I returned. I complained to the ombudsman and within 48 hours had a response and within a week Optus had retrieved the phone call and admitted I had been given the wrong advice. They offerred me a 50 percent discount. The Ombudsan ordered a 100 percent discount and I didn't have to pay the 5 dollars a month either.

Driving myself into the ground with three jobs and being offered a fourth. It's actually good news as it's kind of a dream position, but I'm not in a position to give up any of the other ones so I just have to fit them all in somehow.

yet you encourage dole bludgers. 
doing one job near 60 hours per week if you count the work done at home was more than enough for me. Very happy to be having some leave and going back to 40 hours per week.

Not much at the moment, unfortunately. If I sleep, I'm missing out on work I need to be doing. Had to make that choice a couple of times this week a lose-lose situation if there ever was one!

You're also potentially paying far more tax then you need to. You only get to claim the general exemption from 1 employer which means you're paying top rate tax from the other 3.
It may work out come tax return time but not a great way to go if you have a choice, far better to get 1 main job and 1 extra.

That's not sustainable David!
Dont know your financial circumstances and don't have kids so what would I know - but I do know that before I decided I didn't like humans I spent one or two nights a week on the end of a phone and the biggest regret and angst from blokes who called was that they felt they missed out on the rugrat(s) growing up and had a sense of emotional detachment and genuine regret that they had - I reckon you are probably more balanced - well I hope so at least!!
