As a friendly sparky who occasionally functions as a clergyman I am used to shaking hands with people, and accepting the offer of a cup of tea, however this news article has surprised me, check it out ! :-

I just cannot get my head around the facts highlighted in the article ! for example, 26% of people you shake hands with (that's roughly one in every four people) have traces of poop on their hands !
What are your experiences of bad hygiene in the workplace ? or perhaps in a customers house ? Have some houses been so bad you have actually seen bluebottles walking on stilts ?
I have been in some difficult houses ! ... not too long ago I knelt down by a socket to do a ring continuity test, and after doing the test I put everything back together but noticed the test leads had turned partially brown !... the leads had trailed through a pile of dog poop !.
