Non-Halloween related stuff. Same rules: family oriented, no flaming, be nice. ;-)

One of the cooks was doint a #2 on the toilet, and when he finished doing his business, he walked out of the rest room and went back to work without even running the water over his hands. DISGUSTING!!! I told them to cancel my order, and why I canceled it, and I got on my bike and went to another restaurant.

That is just plain SICK! Mike, you did the right thing by cancelling your order and informing them why, and then leaving. I would have done the exact same thing. Washing one's hands after going to the bathroom should be force of habit. One should do their business, wipe, and wash. Even if he was going to wash his hands after he left the restroom before handling any food, he's still spreading his germs on anything else he's touched en route to the other sink. And he could get sidetracked and forget to wash his hands.

This reminds me of the "Seinfeld" episode where restaurant owner Poppy and Jerry are in the restroom at the same time and Poppy doesn't wash his hands after doing his business.

That is just sick, and too many people don't!
You would think that they would, but no!

All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

I'm not particularly scared of this bug any way.

My folks taught me not to pee on my hands. And that part of my body is usually the
cleanest since it gets a lot of extra attention in the shower.

Oh that is scary, when I think of how many hands I shake in my job!

But I'm with ya, Andy. I'm not particularly afraid of this newest bug. I keep clean and sanitized.

NeverMore, TMI! :shock: :lol:
