Today, I was at the sandwich shop I work in. A customer came in and requested an assorted sub. As I finished putting on the sauces, I looked up to see the customer's face set in horror. Apparently I didn't notice that I licked my fingers clean after getting some mayonnaise on them. FML

The person i had ordering was a close friend of which i am very comfortable with. I guess you could say i got a little too comfortable! After we realized what I did, we just laughed and brushed it off. From now on i will make sure i wear gloves because I wouldn't want this to happen to anyone i don't know!

Totally unacceptable. One would think you get paid to pay attention to the duties of your job

Good thing you aren't his boss, scumbag. At most, a write up is fair punishment.

I think him being fired would be the correct way to go if the lady complains and his boss is smart. Rather let go of an employee than lose your restaurant.

Agreed, Your business is more important then a single employee... HOWEVER If the boss didn't receive a direct complaint it would be very considerate to give the OP another chance, unless this isn't the first time or the OP is not a very good employee

15 - Good thing YOU aren't his boss. Ugh. I just hope you never run any food establishment in your lifetime.

So if you ran a food establishment and an employee is touching the food unsanitized. You wouldn't do any thing about?!?!? sorry but the world doesn't give out free hand outs to people that aren't willing to work for it and change bad habits! Maybe in your head it isn't so bad but when a health inspector comes around and sees something like that you can kiss your business good bye

Um...45, 48 - are you not in agreement? 15 is the only one who should be thumbed down here.

78 I was wondering the same thing. I can't figure out why one is thumbed down while the other is thumbed up. They are both saying the same thing. And I agree with them.

If 15 thinks that it is OK for food workers to lick their fingers while preparing food then I wouldn't want him running a restaurant I visit either. I wonder if he would be cool with someone doing that while making his food.

That is just nasty Op. I hope there aren't other times where you don't notice you're doing that. >.< Ew.

Think this is disgusting? Back in the 70s and 80s, hospital employees were actually encouraged to not wear gloves in many situations (like the ET Nurse who told me to not wear gloves when changing a colostomy appliance, because "it might embarrass the patient"). Even in the early 90s, Nurses had to fight to get adequate amounts of exam gloves; hospitals were reluctant to provide them because of the cost (a box of 200 exam gloves costs about $2.00).

Whoa, a pair of gloves cost 2 cents and the hospital was reluctant on giving them out? That's one unhygienic hospital.

That was actually very common. thats one of the things OSHA mandated when it came around. many hospitals did not want to provide gloves to the enployees because of cost purposes. sad to think health employee who worked with biohazardous materials only received proper protection only when the hospital was forced to provide it

Perhaps it's due to what mayonnaise looks like that made OP feel compelled to thoroughly lick her fingers... O-O

That's really gross and unprofessional. That's a habit you really need to make sure you lick.

In your defense, this sounds like an honest mistake. I had a manager who did this kind of stuff for amusement when customers weren't looking. Apparently she didn't see anything wrong with it. Bitch got fired.

Honest mistake or not, it's still disgusting. Mature manager you had there.

OP I'm sorry but that is so gross and apparently you do it so often at work and most likely at home that you don't even realize you're doing it until someone actually points it out.
