Perhaps you're already read this story from Boing Boing where a maintenance worker was sprayed with blood from the sewer.  Yes, how charming.  He complained how awful is was that he got blood in his mouth  The story went on to say how workers will now be required to wear masks, but just by that particular medical laboratory, which can apparently legally dump human and animal blood into the sewer (how nice).

The focus of the story was how awful it was to have blood in your mouth (and I'm sure it is), but I just couldn't help wondering why these worker don't mind all of the that other stuff in the sewer spraying into their mouths.  I can just picture this guy cleaning the sewer, dead rats and human feces flying all around, and none of that bothering him.  But when the blood gets in his mouth he's spitting it out all day because he can't get the taste out.  I guess everything else tastes okay?

You couldn't get me into a sewer without a deep sea diving suit sprayed with Teflon and these guys are down there without masks.  Sheesh.

Maybe the other stuff tastes like chicken.
