I rate your story 11/11 on the This Is Spinal Tap scale.

Asked Google if speed limit signs are embossed, and this very sign appeared on an eBay link. Described as heavily embossed steel. So "mostly" flat, lol.

EXACTLY! Hence the "fun comment", where in what I wrongly assumed was an obvious attempt at ironic humour, I feigned ignorance of a factoid I, and every other 8 year old, knew over 60 years ago and have repeatedly heard a million times since, and now, a million and one times, lol. Oh, I'm also aware that snowflakes are more cold, than cool. Stay vigilant, lol.

Final exam must have been brutal.

Here you go. The name has been changed to "When The Cat Comes", but I checked, the exact scene depicted in the OP's post is there, as well as the main premise of the cat's magic eyes. Search on YT.

I looked up Tesco's employee, I mean colleague(cheap psychological ploy), benefits, and an unqualified, Life Assurance policy, paying out 5 times one's yearly salary, is on their list of benefits.

While it definitely COULD be limited to death occuring in the actual course of one's job related duties, "Poor bugger fell into the vegetable chiller while restocking the lettuce. HE NEVER STOOD A CHANCE!!!" <dumb comedy break over-lol>, I was relating it to my last 2 aviation industry jobs(1978-2010), both unionized and which both, automatically, gave employees a, die anywhere-anyhow, GROUP life insurance policy, as a very low-cost, cosmetic "bENeFit" that was always dragged out during negotiations to show why our wage demands were SO unreasonable. Trust me when I say that statistically, very few people of working age are "lucky enough", lol, to collect on them(that's why life insurance rates rise dramatically as you head towards my age) and these "benevolent" companies would immediately stop the practice if the costs outweighed THEIR benefit. BUT, I'm not saying you're wrong, just WAY over-explaining my reasoning...because old people like to talk, lol. Cheers

John's done a lot of good for military vets and 9-11 First Responders since leaving the show, and though I think Trevor's done kinda OK trying to fill those big shoes, I really wish he'd stayed on for an extra 4 years or so.
