So you can scratch your arse once during service, but more than that isn’t allowed?

My sister worked in a fast food cafe in the 70’s called the Golden Egg. She said the chef would periodically break off from cooking, stick his hand down his trousers and scratch his balls.

It is crazy how many don’t understand basic food hygiene.
Like those people that think if you wear gloves you don’t have to wash your hands (tip: hands are easier to clean than gloves).

My GF and I stopped in a Toby carvery once to get some food. Walked through the door and saw one of the chefs stood behind the bar with her back to us, hand fully down the back of her trousers and knickers. We turned right around and walked back out before she noticed us.

That way of working sounds like such asshole behaviour.

So hand down the front to scratch and sniff the crotch

The pandemic showed us what the average person knows about hygiene, as well as how much they actually care about it. It seems to have got worse since 2020 too. People have stopped washing their hands after using the toilet and have stopped covering their mouth when they cough/sneeze. It is not that surprising that people think it is OK to scratch their arse while working with food.

How does it work for kitchen staff wearing their whites out of the kitchen?
I was in the toilets of a pub one afternoon and as I was washing my hands, a member of kitchen staff came out of a cubicle wearing their whites and apron.
I also often see folks in kitchen whites when I’m in food shops, as thought they’ve just popped out for a last minute ingredient. Worse, you sometimes see food staff commuting on the tube in their outfits.
Aren’t whites and aprons supposed to stay in the venues unless they’re being cleaned?!

I’ve had to tell people at my job this.
Fucking disgusting behaviour, and it has put me off of eating at where I am. I’m just dissociating enough from it to eat elsewhere, but I can’t there

A timely reminder for everyone that poor food hygiene ratings are almost never “just paperwork”Â

I saw my old kebab man pick his nose near his shop once. Grim but I’d hope he dies that only in his free time.
