Wafer is a kind of silicon I'm led to believe. Is it dangerous when on fire? |  | |  |

I thought "wafer" was a kind of mint, as seen in Monty python classic meaning of life, restaurant scene .  |  | | |

I used to work there.Hated the job.It's like a laboratory where you're covered head to toe in protective clothing and the only thing you see in a person is their eyes.Bit like a burka but in white.And if you're a smoker it's the worst place to work.That place runs 24 hours with 2 x 12 hr shifts so hopefully everyone is ok and as Dicky said those silicone disks and a lot of other chemicals in there are highly dangerous and inflammable. |  | | |

There's cleaning rooms with highly inflammable liquids in there so maybe something started in there.The smokers have to walk 100 yards away from the building so I don't think they could have started it. | | | |

Was the pay that bad? Surely you must have a high standard of qualifications to work in that chemical industry? | | | |

You had to work your way up to earn the decent bread.I never stayed there long enough to see it.Crap job for us fussy locals but ideal for Poles and Albanians. | | | |

im a sub contractor to them. we clean the outer shell of the building every 18 months or so. only did it 4 months ago awell. i wonder what state its in now, i imagine the fire was contained to one area, lucky its was a sunday where less people are working.
as for smokers, when i was there i was wondering why sombody i knew walked from the building loitering down the street. must be a strict smoking policy. | |
