I'm going to leave names out. I used to have to go to all kinds of places to do work. The stink from some of those places was terrible. There was one abottoir which was particularly bad. Every time I think of the place I get a burning feeling in the back of my throat. Pickle factories, chocolate factories (you gain weight by osmosis), you name it. If they used a lot of energy I went there. I remember one place which did rendering. You wouldn't go there after lunch because you would lose your lunch. I hadn't been there before. They directed me into a room. I went into the room and turned on the lights to find the equipment I needed to work on. On the concrete floor there must have been 10,000 eyes from cows, I guess it was. I puked. A crematorium is an interesting place to work. Do you know the entire body doesn't burn, or at least the one I saw didn't? There were a couple of shiny bones remaining with the ashes. It's not stuff I talked about at the dinner table.
