you'll have to get it out asap as they can be dangerous

If I manage to stab myself we have paramedics on site so I should survive. Do you think I could claim it under workcover as a workplace injury?

the rough sharp ends will cut through the lining and then start cutting you

It's ok, it was getting a bit stabby but the whole thing was off as soon as I got to my car to go home. I don't think I could have pulled the wire out without major bra surgery unfortunately - although if I hadn't been about to go home anyway I probably would have resorted to that.
