Gloves in a kitchen is just an illusion of hygiene. The gloves can be dirty and hands can be washed while gloves can't. So what you've actually done is pressured a hapless manager into following an arbitrary rule and I don't think that's very nice of you.
100% this.
I've seen shops where workers are handling food and then working the register all with the same gloves on.
Then there's this Korean spot I go to for fried chicken. They process payment and then put on fresh gloves right next to the register. Not making a show of it. Just workflow. Then they go handle/pack food and discard gloves after handing your order over.
Blew my mind.
If I saw murder as frequently as fast food employees taking payment and handling food with the same gloves, yes. Absolutely should be legal for me to murder someone for taking my parking spot.
Maybe. But at least I'm not the type of person who calls people names when they oppose my views.
Where'd I do that? I was trying to make murder legal idgaf about food and health.
I know I can just wash my hands and be clean enough to handle food! It's my job after all. This actually isn't the first time I've been challenged by someone quoting all kinds of irrelevant scientific concepts: once I said you can wash veg in cold tap water (which is true where we live!) and this young squirt piped up going on about stillwater, breaking surface tension, bacteria... the knowledge apparently isn't worth much without real world experience!
Well, for one thing, I'm citing the opposite of conventional wisdom, and for the other thing, I'm not saying hands are more or less germ-prone than fresh gloves; I'm arguing the opposite, namely, that they're as clean as each other. You should really pay attention before being such a sarky cunt.
For handling food, they certainly are as clean as each other! Unless you think gloves magically repel dust and so on while sitting in the open box on the kitchen shelf?
That you've just washed? Nope! On a glove that's been worn so long it's got shite all over it? Yep!
It was my point to begin with so I'm bringing it back within context!
Sowwy
Forgiven!
That's why we wouldn't let undergrads wear gloves until the later years where they use toxic material. Better one kid gets a drop of acid on their hand than them spreading it everywhere.
