Do you get cold after doing a poo?

Found this old pic, from a decade back, of me trying out a plasma cutter in Tim Hunkin's workshop.

We got a tour, and when we asked "Why do you have angle grinders hanging from every pillar?" he answered "Because when I mess up a weld, it's much better just having one within reach, rather than having to find *the* angle grinder and plug it in"

Today marks a decade of freelancing 🎂

A few years, including the last one, have absolutely sucked, but overall I don't regret leaving my old job, leaving my shit old boss and a couple of awful coworkers in my dust, or not even applying for salaried roles in the past decade.

Interviewed for one salaried job in London by request, described my life in the hills and why I moved there, and their face fell with "oh. It's not the money you care about is it?"

got introduced to new work contact via whatsapp. completely forgot I set my bio, years ago, to "raised in a cave"

first call, he opens with "so, raised in a cave, tell me more"

me: er

(no i did not explain the meme)
