Fluorine gas combines w/ moisture in the air to form hydrofluoric acid... nasty stuff. HF attacks calcium, meaning if you spilled some on your hand, it'd melt your bones. Fluorine is very toxic.

Basically, management's response was, "Either you're dead or you're fine."

I did not reaffirm the lady who got dissed because she is one of them.

I was just using the fax machine, and thinking about the "talk like a..." threads.

And I was thinking about talking like snoop dog in the office, and how I'd be using the fizzle machizzle. Then I got the biggest grin when I tried to figure out how to combine "xerox" and "izzle"

They said that level of detection for gas is way lower than levels where damage can occur.

My buddy works in the area where the problem was located and he is more than a little worried about his exposure.

Me too yo. It cannot ever be avoided. At least I don't have to be here with everybody else. Listening to their inane chattering about whatever network sitcom was on last night.
And I have donuts!

...I'm trying to review Zero 7 but I'm listening to Alice Coltrane because the fucking insipid clinical cod-chillout bollocks of Z7 was making me angry.

I completed copies of a job application on break.

I tacked up a few (tiny) "demotivators" from Despair, Inc.

I listened to a mix posted by Akuma. (http://www.raeo.net)
I looove bein able to groove at work. Don't even have to wear headphones, either. The 19 year olds didn't seem too hip on it. They're kinda square, which makes me more secure, actually...

Oh, and on my first day back to regular (special) duties, I stayed caught up and din't do any one else's sheeit.

And I still like it there.
