    I do workplace safety and hazardous materials, so occasionally I get to start a talk with “This room has more doctorates than nostrils, so it should be easy”. And then I have to explain things like “Dangerous liquid goes into the dangerous liquid sink” or “No, you can’t remove the mask to scratch your nose, even if it’s really really itchy”.

      Oh god yes, so much.

      I do disaster response planning, mostly for healthcare. “No, your OR really needs electrical power!” “No, you can’t still run your outpatient clinic during an active shooter situation!” “For fucks sake,NO,you will not use a diesel generator indoors to power the ED!Not even with a open window. Your windows are 30cm x 1m”

    It’s a covering for a finger, kind of like cutting the finger out of a latex/nitrile glove. It looks just like a tiny condom made to fit on a finger.
