    vaping complaint from customer

    Yikes. I only "nit picked" the word(s) "bunch of people" because I have read several posts about the notion that the letter writer "should've spoke sic for herself since she seemed to be the one with the issue." Some folks here are up in arms because they believe the writer is claiming to...

    vaping complaint from customer

    There are definitely folks who take germ spreading very seriously! Remember a few years ago when the movie "Contagion" came out? I had a customer come in totally weirded out by it. He requested that I sanitize the counter, wash my hands, wear gloves, wash my hands...then take his order lol. If...

    vaping complaint from customer

    When I think of a back room in a restaurant I don't think of an employees only area. I think more of a separate room used from groups, parties, meetings etc. Interestingly the back room SI can think of have all been near the restroom. Seems reasonable enough to me that a customer could see what...

    vaping complaint from customer

    The writer never claimed to know a "bunch" of people who felt the same way. She mentioned "myself and a few others," and a "handful." Just trying to keep some perspective here.

    vaping complaint from customer

    Yep. The gloves are meant to protect the public from communicable disease that anyone who touches food directly (this doesn't mean someone who passes plates to patrons, or busboy, etc.). It makes sense... One person handling food with their bare hands can expose dozens of people to a pathogen.

    Mission Impossible: Changing the term "steeping" to "aging."

    Misuse of the word literally makes me figuratively insane. I vote for "mature!"

    vaping complaint from customer

    True, Hepatitis A and B are also transferred in other ways and not always via a foodservice worker. But Hepatitis A especially is indeed spread by foodservice workers. Surprisingly the use of gloves is not to prevent the spread of germs from the cash register to the food to the soda machine...

    Help me prove my argument to the family...

    And you might also tell them that the body absorbs nic differently from vaping than from smoking. Smoke particles are itty-bitty and can be inhaled way deep down into the lungs where the nicotine makes its way into the bloodstream. Vapor droplets, on the other hand, are ginormous in comparison...

    LOL But he would say it with such passion and testosterone...and in the English accent.

    The definition of terms used... "analog" and "vaping"

    I have no idea why, but the term analog made complete sense to me. I guess I applied a meaning to it along the lines of less advanced or inferior in technology. Something along the lines of Analog (cigarette) is to PV (personal vaporizer, ecig, etc.) as trepanation is to Tylenol.

    The check list

    Tales of ex-smokers like this are what made me afraid to even try to quit smoking. The thought of knowing that I would crave cigs for years and years exhausted me. I just kept thinking of all those after dinner cigs I would crave, and all those hours and hours of driving that I wouldn't be able...

    Mission Impossible: Changing the term "steeping" to "aging."

    Oh how I loved The Electric Company. I thought Morgan Freeman was da bomb before Morgan Freeman was da bomb. And I agree wholeheartedly about the -ly. Sigh.

    vaping complaint from customer

    Yep. Anytime we touch food directly we are to wear disposable gloves. We are supposed to wash our hands every 30 minutes at work, but I bet I do it 4 times an hour. If someone sees me sweeping the floor, do they really want me handling their food? Washing hands is heavily emphasized in the...

    vaping complaint from customer

    I hear ya, I used the term "competition" in a very anthropological sense. As for her passive-aggressive writing style, it may not necessarily represent a passive-aggressive personality but rather simply a poor writing style. A lot of people use very passive language when writing, probably...

    vaping complaint from customer

    Oh I am on your side. I was simply replying to a post that was more about difficult customers. If you scroll up a few you'll see my reply to the original topic post. If every difficult customer was as "difficult" as the letter writer I wouldn't call them difficult at all.

    Oh there's no doubt about it. It was a woman lol. We females can always sniff out our "competition." Either that or we have sixth sense-type b@#&ch radar lol.
