All those surfaces are clean so that nothing is transmitted to my food, right?

Wut?

The gloves help with fingernail germs and protect your hands, not much else

Nothing pisses me off more than the ones on the register handling cash in gloves.

Germaphobes are more annoying than vegans imo.

Don't worry, most restaurants I worked at in college, the cooks in the back just didn't wear gloves.

Enjoy.

Same goes for the nurses wearing the hospital scrubs that they put on at home

Where else are they supposed to put them on at?


You realize for most regular nursing units regular scrubs that are purchased and laundered by staff are just fine? If they are caring for a patient with something contagious or dealing with a wound, etc....they should be wearing proper PPE (gowns, gloves, masks, goggles, etc) to protect themselves and prevent them spreading that to other patients. They also should be washing their hands (or using hand sanitizer) every time they enter and exit a patient’s room. Again...to prevent spread of infection.

Only areas such as burn units, ORs, labor and delivery areas...etc, require staff to wear hospital issued scrubs that can’t leave the hospital.

You should get a local report on every restaurant you go to.

Needless to say, you’ll probably never eat out again because every restaurant violates code all of the time. To me, it’s how bad they violated it.

Same towel is dipped in dirty water to "clean" your table.

Germaphobes should never eat out.

I ate at Ava today on Essen. Excellent vermicelli.

But the waitress had a latex cover thingie only on her right pointer finger. And it was bumpy looking.

TF was it? Looked like a tiny condom.

She likely cut her finger and the finger cot(that is what it was called) was covering the bandaged finger.

I googled and it def looked like a finger cot but had a bunch of spikes on the outside of it.

Nice to know she was protecting my food :-)
