    Quite often, because I'm flat out mental with a death wish, I will dig around in my pocket for some change, use it to buy some fast food and then eat it and go about my business.
    Because I'm mad.
    I just don't care.
    Mental.

  • Surely, when you buy a burger, you pay for it in cash.

    Do you then wash your hands before eating it?

    I do not think so.....
    I am a cow so cannot speak Bullshine but I do recognise its smell when I come upon it.

    So on the basis that there are a lot of sloppy people out there, I should just ignore the fact when sloppy practices are observed when I am ordering food?

    If he spits on it in front of me too, should I just ignore that because it happens all the time behind closed doors?



    You did infact ignore it by not challenging him when you observed his 'sloppy practices'. Next time just open your mouth and ask them politely to put some gloves on.

    And long may you continue so sir. ;) One day, no doubt, the Daily Mail will "reveal" that the grubby stuff from cash cures cancer and causes a slump in house prices...

    Do they?

    I dont

    I either make sure I dont touch the food (ie hold it with the wrapper or I wash my hands in between the transaction (if I am with someone)

    How do you eat chips/sandwhiches/doughnuts etc:(

    Please stop using such provocative language such as "danger". It was a mistake, easily rectified by asking the worker to make a new one and wash his hands first.

    Anyone who thinks this needs a formal official complaint either needs to get a life, or get their head looked at.

    Simples

    If someone cannot follow a basic hygiene rule, what other rules do they not follow? Spit in the fryer? Handle raw meat? A complaint needs to be made because either A) The person hasn't been trained correctly, and management need to address it - OR B) The person has decided not to follow their training and therefore management need to know.

    Is this not just exaggerating? If I put ant powder on an ants nest you then suggest I'd have it in me to commit mass murder on people?

    Whenever I've used a rest room in a fast food joint, I can never get out without touching the door handles.

    Suppose, what you have to do is use your little finger to open the doors and then hold your burger with that finger stuck out . . like a posh person . ..

    But you haven't done anything about it - except moan on an Forum. What do you think that will achieve?

    You've refused to lodge a complaint with the company so how can they implement re-training?

    That's a false analogy, this is why: No one in History has ever escalated putting down ant powder to mass murder. However it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume that someone who doesn't wash their hands also disregard other hygiene rules.
