Do not know about convictions but charges have been laid against some in the last 20 years. I remember reading about a coupla cases on the ABC news website where some people were selling some dodgy stuff which led to the death of others
That seems to be the common thread. Selling dodgy stuff to others which leads to some serious consequences
Here is the thing, hang out here long enough, like about a coupla hours and you will not be making dodgy stuff even if you do choose to sell. I strongly advise though that you do not do that
I have wanted to tell this story for a while. I changed jobs in Feb and after a few weeks we went to a client site to work at their home. This is an ongoing job but in this instance we were there to do a big job, took three days
We were working on his wall on the far side of his pool. We had to stand on planks over his pool and he helped set up the planks we were to work on. While he was balls deep in the freezing cold water helping us set up the job, he volunteered that he stills, his dad stilled and that is where he learned it but he is also Irish and Scottish descent and frankly they invented stillin so it was not something illicit but his birth right. He hates whiskey, everybody assumes he likes whiskey. He likes gin and ouzo. He has a bulldog named Blossom
I desperately want to ask him about his stillin but I can't. I like this guy but I do not trust that this info will not get back to my boss. I like my boss but he is kinda puritanical. He is vegan and has been for 30+ years and a non drinker and while he may protect the privacy of his clients I am not willing to bet that level of discretion will be afforded to me or how that knowing may affect our working relationship. He is a cat lover like myself though so we talk about the goofy stuff our little furballs get up to
My neighbours know I still though. My next door neighbour knows I still. The people across from me know I still, the cute single mother two doors down, on the other side of the street knows I still( she told me she and her friends still before I told her)
I also spent Christmas eve/day with them
I suppose the point I am trying to make here is... I dunno.. Damn this is fun. It really is but not everybody will understand
