You can work cash in hand but it’s up to you to claim your own taxes.

I worked a cash job(warehouse) eight years back for a year and half and the first three months I didn’t claim to help me get back on track to get a new apartment faster than after I did claim did taxes never came back to haunt me. I know so many people who don’t claim tips and only claim taxes on their bartending jobs and no clue to this day how the government isn’t like we know you can’t survive on less than minimum wage and look into it (Canada)

Microwaves don't heat evenly, they superheat some parts and underheat others. If you don't think that a microwave can get the foam hotter than pre-boiled water then I don't know what to tell you other than it's still better to be safe than sorry.

Immediately icing burns causes tissue scarring if I recall correctly? 9th grade science teacher had to help a student that burned her hand and I recall her getting mad at us for using ice water. Told us to use cool running water from the sink first.

A COVID case was found, A sore throat and isolation abound, To cure boredom, treats were consumed, But a lemonade swig left him doomed.

The drink set his throat ablaze, Like a meme from days of yore, He tried icy water to quell the pain, But the lemonade remained a great bane.

Now he sits with a drink he can't discard, Unable to put it in the fridge, it's hard, To know what to do with the glass now bare, But he'll find a way, he doesn't despair.

Next time, sit the container down into the sink and pour the water. You won't have to worry about burning anything. As far as the cats and the hot water on the counter, they would've been fine. It wouldn't have stayed hot long enough for a bit of water, to actually hurt them! I hope you feel better
