Food
Top tip: If you've just cooked a load of chicken thighs in you favourite copper-coated deep pan and left it in the oven to finish, but have perhaps left the oven on by accident, don't 30 seconds after putting it on the stove try to move the pan using the bare metal handle with your raw pink fleshy hands.
I've just cooked the palm-side of all my fingers on my left hand. It would be an understatement to say that it hurts a bit even after a half hour in cool water with aloe.
Fucking idiot.
- Been here. Also do not recommend.duckseason
- That's a mistake most people, myself included, only make once. and yes, searing pain.BuddhaHat
- Once did this on pipework fresh from a brazer.i_monk
- hope copper is on the outside.pango
- Once I was finishing some chops in the oven, pulled them out and checked the temp, 5 under my target and I immediately grabbed the handle to pop them back in.garbage
- I had just pulled them out of a 400 degree oven, and somehow forgot that fact 10 seconds later. Fellow fucking idiot.garbage
- Warm water rinse, not cold for the next time it happens.garbage
- I seem to do this just about once a year religiously with my steel-handled Le Creuset enamelled cast iron frying pan. Punches for me.Continuity
- Been there... Burnt my right hand. What a pain for weeks! The wound that cost me the most to heal in life...OBBTKN
- i like cookwares with out heat resis rubber handles. that means i can put them in oven. but ya... i burn myself time to time.pango
- aw mate, that's a stinger. I've done this with my cast iron pans just cooking on the stove. They weigh a lot so need to get a good grip tooIanbolton
- Get yourself some of those greasy burn pads + gauze to put on top + stretch net to keep it in place. You'll be glad you did.spl33nidoru
- With small stretch nets you can do that to each finger individually and keep your hand functioning. Change every day.spl33nidoru
- For minor, non-serious burns, use vinegar immediately (not hours later) after burning yourself. Gets rid of the pain.jagara
- oeef. friend of my did this as well. second day it gonna look nasty. Make sure you use the non-sticky bandage on your skin.milfhunter
- Oh and never purge the blisters. Your body is producing this fluid for a reason.spl33nidoru
- haha, thanks all - this isn't my first rodeo, but it's probably the wildest beast I've messed with :) Pain's gone and burns are better than expected...Nairn
- ..and my palms isn't going to be one giant blister as first feared. It did take about two hours for pain to subside, using my preferred treatment.Nairn
- Ouch. Have done this more than once. I tend to leave a tea towel wrapped around the handle after I take it out now - and leave it there until washing up time.mort_
- Ugh, I have the Le Creuset braiser. I love it, but that thing is fucking daring you to forget how hot the handles are. Happy recovery.garbage

What does it mean when an employer says their company “works hard and plays hard” or “works as hard as they play”?
I’ve never seen a company “play hard”, just overwork their employees to the point where what little spare time they have left is spent drinking to cope with the stress.
It’s such a red flag when i see that line
- i work with a company that has this as part of our values, as well as family. strangely enough, i'm happy with themimbecile
- they care more about my mental health than job performance. as far as work / play. They often host events we can attend at will.imbecile
- they've rented the zoo, hosted murder mystery party, reserved a comedy club, internal cook offs.imbecile
- They say / do all the stuff the internet says to run from, but they mean it and our customers love us.imbecile
- i can't even imagine what that's like. all but one of my employers and one mentor have been total shitheadsscarabin
- they host car shows and invite food trucks out as often as they can weather permitting. they believe elevating the community elevates them.imbecile
- I'm fortunate, and I tell them. I feel appreciated as well.imbecile
- example. the book i'm discussing reading was suggested by my boss. he also told me to read it on work time and not feel obligated to do so on my own time.imbecile
- ^coolYakuZoku
- It means they put a football table near the breakout/kitchen area.shapesalad
- Usually they have a 'culture', eg some underworked admin big girl thinks a load of cheesy social crap is fun and YOU MUST attend the summer party etc...shapesalad
- Why does no job ad say this "we are focused on getting rich and retiring early, join us to do the same", as that's what i'm privately trying to do.shapesalad

Russia-Ukraine Invasion
https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/di…
"Auction of Russian journalist's (Dmitry A Muratov) Nobel Peace Prize raises $103M for Ukrainian refugees"
"Muratov has been highly critical of Russia's 2014 annexation of Crimea and the war launched in February that has caused nearly five million Ukrainians to flee to other countries for safety, creating the largest humanitarian crisis in Europe since the Second World War.
Independent journalists in Russia have come under scrutiny by the Kremlin, if not outright targets of the government. Since Putin came into power more than two decades ago, nearly two dozen journalists have been killed, including at least four who had worked for Muratov's newspaper.
In April, Muratov said he was attacked with red paint while aboard a Russian train."

oey, why did you call Placebo "the most useless band ever"?
I find them one of the best out there. If you look at their discography they have so many great tracks.
Of course if the music is not your cup of tea that's another story.
