Should I complain or leave it?

I think its going over the top to put a complaint in that lands the nurse right in it, fair enough she wasnt too professional but leave complaints for the really serious stuff. If you are worried about the infection control business, you could write a letter anonymously that didnt name anyone but said what happened and that should be enough to change practices. Start putting staff through disciplinaries for this sort of thing and its the taxpayer that will suffer in the end as this sort of procedure costs many man hours and you might find staff going on long term sick.

Theres no way I'd let it go, what if she has something wrong with her? I think its absolutely gross. Its bad enough if it was on your cheek or some place like that, but actually round our eye?!?!? If you don't want her to personally get into trouble write an anonymous letter as previously mentioned. Myself though, I'd name and shame.

Maybe I'm more grossed out than is normal, but if someone is talking to me and a bit of spit comes out and lands on me, my stomach turns over also the white spit that gathers at the corners of peoples mouths makes me gag.

I doubt she would sacked over it, but should be sent on compulsory infection control training

I think in many shops - mainly the supermarkets the bags come on a dispenser whereby when you pull a bag off it it opens the bag as you pull it off.

Its the other shops that are the problem but its hard opening bags sometimes!

I've noticed some shops installing wet sponges to try to stop staff licking their fingers.

When I first started work there was a chap who spat on the desk then rubbed his finger in it to wet envelopes.
