Do you fancy snot coming out of your ears or eyes?Originally posted by d000hg View PostI wonder if a swimmer's nose-clip would work.
Coz that's what'll happen!

But maybe if you blow too hard the pressure build up will cause the snot to escape somewhere, or even to push something else out of the way, like your eyes or your brain.Originally posted by d000hg View PostI wonder if a swimmer's nose-clip would work.

Most of the places where I have worked recently have all been big open plan sites with hot desks for those who aren't working from home

When it's that really irritating snot which is the consistency of water and can make a run for it faster than you have time to get a tissue, try stuffing balls of tissue up your nostrils to act as sponges.
Better if you WFH.
