No, but not because I'm afraid of their germs, but because it would gross me out so bad I'd lose my appetite.

This is only one of the things that puts me off about the restaurant biz: they make their employees come in sick. Especially in food service, that doesn't seem like a very good idea.

Thus my survey.... I am home wicked sick (upper respiratory infection) and boss wants me to come in...HA....I am not that stupid to spread germs and nose snot...Health Dept does not like stuff like this but employers force employees to either work or go find a new job!

thanks for your input Vria!

I always like a little phlegm on my burger. It makes the mayonaisse creamier.


And a nice little cup of mucus to dunk my fries in!

Eeww.

You know what Forest Gump said.
It's a risk every time you eat out.
You just can't think about it.
Hell some of their uniforms have a weeks crap on them.

Not to be a thread spoiler, but I've been to places where the cooks were wiping dripping sweat from their faces while preparing meals. One look at that, and I just go somewhere else.

Yeah, 'but what if you don't see what's going on?' "How do you know the same isn't happening at the other place you go?" Right?

Well, I suppose actually seeing that kinda thing is what ruins the appetite.
If ya can't see it happening it's almost like "no harm, no foul."
