"Butchers at Sainsbury's stores are not allowed to use certain knives to cut meat because they have not had enough health and safety training. he revelation comes after one butcher with 30 years experience said to a customer he could not use a knife to de-bone a joint of lamb for his own safety. John Wilkinson, 41, was told by the worker behind the supermarket counter: "My bosses won't let me - in case I cut myself and I'm not insured..."

Dam- I work part time for goodwill industries-some fucking fool cut himself with a knife -now no one can use a knife to cut the card board boxes up-its the same the world over-
its all screwed upppppppp.  Have the butchers use their teeth and rip the god dam meat off the bone-and spit it into the bag.  hahahaha...
thats my story and i am sticking to it- WW (ELB) "speed of light" and getting faster.(in my own mind)

30 years as a Butcher and he is not allowed to use certain knives or make certain cuts as he has not had the specific Health and Sefety Training ?
I wonder at how many years as a butcher you get that training ?
(probably after your eyesight has gone ,or you have arthritis and cannot hold the knife properly)

I am wondering about the butchers statement:
He is Not insured ?
The UK has National Health,they are all covered.
(have they now put restrictions on getting national health services depending upon being trained up enough at your job ?)

Well I'm not surprised, in the U.K we have had Doctors calling for a ban on the sale kitchen knifes, a part ban on swords, a ban on kid's playing conkers.
What's next ? Do I have to go to the Town Hall to get a walking down the street license. The world has gone crazy. Will the last person to leave the country please turn the lights off.
