What a day it's been! Got absolutely soaked! Got me thinking about what hazards are in my job as a courier. Other than getting wet in the rain... I cut myself all the time on cardboard. I sometimes chaf my nipple and always my arms get scratched from carrying stuff. Get my hand trapped between boxes and doorways!

What are your hazards in the workplace?

Haha! Well the restaurant/bar roof leaks when it rains heavily so that’s brilliant!! There isn’t much health and safety at the moment that we are trying hard to improve, so many plug sockets are broken, I worry every time I plug something in, our ceiling in our bathroom is falling down, I’m waiting for the day someone in the room above overfills their bath because that will be fun! Fawlty towers have nothing on this place!

You should be careful with all that. Radioactive materials? Do you get home and look in the mirror in complete darkness to check if you're ok?

Yeah I've done lots of bar work. I used to get cuts and bruises. Knocking into the taps and lifting full barrels on delivery. Tough work that...

There are loads of potential hazards in my job. Getting soaked doesn't really count though Op!

I've cut my fingers a few times with secateurs or a pocket knife, I've unwittingly driven a tractor into a bog and had to be rescued by the head gardener, I'm forever banging my legs on wheelbarrows, and I've almost stabbed right through my foot with a pitch fork. The biggest hazard is sunburn though. That and dehydration. Last summer was a killer.

I was almost laughing at the heatwave back here last year. I have screenshots of local temp for me at 3am being 34 degrees. We were hitting 50 degrees every day (official). Ground temp nearer 70 degrees. 12 hour shifts were not fun..

Biggest hazard is getting shouted at by customers when our couriers don’t do their job properly and mess up!
