[QUOTE="Grant_Vicat, post: 1990560, member: 388932"] Immediately after leaving university in 1982, when I was over £800 overdrawn, I took the first job going. It was mainly dispatching central heating radiators around the UK. Amongst my first jobs was that of a fork-lift driver. I was a brittle Type 1, of which the director was aware, and although I had a hypo (in the office 5 years later, which necessitated being taken to hospital), this never happened while in control. The main reason was certainly because I was only too aware of the expense of any accident, which therefore made me responsible for testing regularly, even in those days. I can fully understand [USER=494156]@Jonlennon[/USER] 's reaction, but I think it would be difficult to quote discrimination. It seems unfair that he is not given the chance to prove his responsibility. Insurance was mentioned above, and while I was Type 1, my condition always shoved up the premium considerably. Now there's an interesting idea - could we reduce the palaces acquired by insurers by quoting discrimination? [/QUOTE]
