Guavanaut posted:People generally order those knowing some idea of what they'll have to do in advance though, it's a bit different to dropping 3.5m of them on a bunch of people already in pandemic mode. Those little spring-loaded needles they use for blood glucose tests seem pretty foolproof* and anyone managing to gently caress that up can probably be safely left to bleed to death. Having said that they also use those for hemoglobin tests when you give blood and TBH i dread that more than the big loving drainpipe needle that they take the actual claret with. Something about the speed the needle moves at, I literally have to hold my arm down to stop from pulling it away. * I am well aware of the pitfall of that word.

bessantj posted:Putting in an order with ASDA is testing my patience right now. Started the order then got put in a queue. An hour later I could finish my order but now when I try and pay the card check is timing out. Don't know if you fixed this, but the other day when I was registering a new card, I had to go into my account settings and add the card there, instead of doing it on the checkout screen.

Oh yeah, Permitted Exercise report - you'll all be pleased to hear that every building site around Canary Wharf is going at full speed, because God knows they have to get those 6,000 or so luxury flats onto the market by summer when demand for million-pound shoeboxes with a view of other million-pound shoeboxes will definitely be peaking. (For those who haven't been keeping track of my rants about this - 7 of the 10 tallest residential buildings in the UK (and 3 of the 5 tallest in Europe) are going up along one stretch of road on the Isle of Dogs, and all are due for completion between Q2 and Q4 2020/21, with ground being broken on another three buildings in that size range as we speak, due for completion in early 2022 - ironically the lockdown is probably going to allow them to speed up the completion of those buildings because they can get even more truck movements down that one narrow bit of road)

Something about the speed the needle moves at, I literally have to hold my arm down to stop from pulling it away. The needles retract after they're fired so a more probably outcome is John Gammon fat-fingers the lancet, doesn't get any blood and proceeds to exsanguinate when he tries to extract blood with the use of a paring knife.

The Question IRL posted:https://twitter.com/miracleofsound/status/1239794473179197445?s=19 I've been watching this reporting with amusement, since the company making this particular kit is run by my mate who I did my PhD with, and have been bantering about coronavirus with since early January. Proud of the lad though, he's a hard worker. Should ask him more about the kit (actually kits, think they have a qPCR and an antibody kit now), but he's gone quiet on the WhatsApp the last 2 weeks due to hectic busyness.

So my final placement just cancelled and an hour later I get a call from my job when I qualify and they want me to come in for a uniform fitting as they are expecting us all to get rushed through to qualify asap. Bricking it to be honest, going to raid the booze stockpile for sure tonight

After the government rolled back the work restrictions today and yesterday, my boss has gone from SHUT IT ALL DOWN!!! to carry on as well as we can. I'm now officially joining the wfh club, and going in tomorrow to pick up a laptop and as many reference catalogues and pricelists as I can carry. Suits me fine, as the actual amount of work I can accomplish from home will probably take me all of 30 minutes per day, if that. A few of my online accquaintances have stumbled across the 50% pre-infected article, and are jumping all over it.
