My letter for face fit testing says "Please do not eat, drink or smoke
30 minutes before your face fitting test"

Why?

If it's for a better fit then surely it will be fit better if I do the
things I would normally do before wearing the mask when I am at work.
Things such as eating, drinking and smoking.

Or do they expect me to fast from all three for 30 minutes before
wearing the mask when at work?

Maybe so you don't breathe or dribble nasty smells or allergens over their face-measuring apparatus or samples which will be used on many people?

I think the test is whether or not you can taste a spray, so I'd guess
the fear is that a vindaloo or half an ounce of shag would risk you
tasting nothing even without the mask on.

I'm sure they decontaminate between fittings or everyone will go down with
whatever bugs the last patient had!

I'm surprised technology has not come to the rescue of this and made a set
of masks that really does fit anyone by now.

From the instructions on one of the 3M testing kits:

"Eating and drinking beforehand
They should not eat or drink anything other than water within 30 minutes
of their allocated time-slot.
This reduces the risk of food or drink consumed earlier leaving a
residual taste in the mouth that could be confused with a fit test failure"

If it's for a better fit then surely it will be fit better if I do the
things I would normally do before wearing the mask when I am at work.

Look at the bright side, they did not prohibit shagging ;-)

Cant see how that is even possible with faces varying so much.

I am trying to remember just exactly what it was that we were sweeping
up that the HSE fined us for when they caught us sweeping it up.

It was a white dust or powder, certainly not asbestos or cocaine but it
cost us a £2K fine.

I wonder if it might have been just generic dust from cement, concrete,
plasterboard etc. AIUI the HSE come down these days not just on silica
dust (with silicosis in mind) but dust generally (with an eye to COPD et
al).

The fine was hidden in the extras bill.
