I know why you're here, DT. I know what you've been doing. I know why you hardly sleep. It's the question that drives us, DT. It's the question that brought you here. You know the question, just as I did.

Who's turn is it to skin up?

It was a Trinity quote from the Matrix. I had to Google it because I'm more of a three cylinder nut than a Matrix nut but having done so, I found some good quotes so I've stuck them in my handbag for later use. Your turn to skin up.

I am aware of the origin of the quote.. I am also known for making daft comments

Forgive me. I'm still working out the daft:serious ratio here. It seems about 4:1 at the moment which is perfect

4:1 was a little optimistic in hindsight, however I think you may have exaggerated a tad.

(tbf they're the only ones I've ever had anything to do with).

Nope neither of those - if I get the job I will fess up who it was, have to stay secret squirrel for now.

Not bounty hunting stunt man unfortunately, but European IT Manager has a nice ring to it, lets see what package they put together

I'm so excited I could jump an open drawbridge.

Or Tarzan from a vine...

Good luck!

Left school at 15, day release for 4 years studying industrial chemistry / processing.
Worked initially on Pancoxin, Ivomec, Thibenzole in animal health, stint in QO analysing in process samples, then on human health, Aldomet, indomethacin and dexamethasone. The latter was in a small scale plant producing 2kgs a time. It was mega expensive then, way more than platinum. All told I have processed or tested a dozen or so globally marketed products.
Trained as an instrument technician, built and maintained control systems. Wrote a training program and was promoted to technical trainer. The company paid for my degree and started to have me travel to the USA and EMEA region. Joined the leadership team before becoming global L and D director. Now in my last months of work.

I have been one lucky person. Never asked for my career, it just happened.

I am the one that most *love to hate* that's HSE to you then.

As is the way, looking for something else ...
