Not been funny, but surely wether its your own car or your company car, you would have to pay the excess for the screen replacing after pouring boiling water on it?

I need a shower every morning, even if I've had one the night before, just feel dirty.

To freshen yourself up, and some folk may have to deal with clients and customers so should really be presentable and not have a bed head and stink of sweat

I only shower in mornings to waken myself up, otherwise I walk downstairs for breakfast and to work half asleep like a zombie. Within half an hour im likely to be black though
