If you're eating at fuckin Long John Silvers, you're not trying to live anyways

I worked at whole foods, found maggots in the cheese slicer. I have the picture too. boss tried to say it was fine. fuck that place
HeyFreckleFace
Oh gross. I would have thought Whole Foods would have higher standards, aren't they the fancy pants grocery store?
ItsZones
They like to pretend they are, but they are not. Money hungry, and skirt rules all the time
HeyFreckleFace
Jeez :/

At least you get penicillin with your $3 bucket of shrimp.

Husband used to be sort of a fast food restaurant fixer. Go in and clean house literally and figuratively. One place had maggots (1/2)

...how has this gotten this bad without a health inspector getting called in or something?
peygah
Most of them are slowly going out of business...
ObeySparky
I've called the health department so many times, many of them actually know me by name now. They love it too, when the public helps them.

How does a restaurant get to that point?

Most large chains have very strict health codes. They have a reputation to maintain. Small restaurants don't really care.(worked at Wendy's)
Lugh314159
Is wendy's the large chain in this example?

LJS.no. The one in my area flooded in '05. When they cleared it out, they found years of dead maggots imbedded in rancid grease on the fryer
chrimmm
They?
zatgal
The employees who had to clean it up. I was dating the fryer bitch. He was traumatized.
Lugh314159
years worth? That doesn't make sense… if they were dying, how could they accumulate? If they didn't die, they'd grown into flies and leave
zatgal
Years was a guess. The grease caking was definitely years worth, and the maggots were all through the grease cake, some partially fried.
AdditionalSupplyDepotsRequired
More flies show up and make more maggots from outside, I'd wager.

I'm not sure you want any sauce from here.

Not the one where I live. It closed months ago. :(
RogueTampon
It's probably one that's been closed down or abandoned for a while.
Kusaji
Nope, still open to this day.
productofmyowncreation
So, this place is closed right? Health code violations this bad mean they closed, right? RIGHT?
iluvcats
This would not even warrant a followup inspection..
StooperDave
On the plus side, you now have immunities to bacteria science has yet to identify.
RaggedWombat
More than likely not. I work for a health department and mold in the drink machines is actually very very common to find.

Got any references to link? For knowledge's sake?
RaggedWombat
First hand experience. Go on your counties health inspection oage and you can see everything a restaurant got marked for, this is common

It was about the same at a braums I worked at. I cleaned it one day and I got fired for working on "distracting tasks" instead of working.

Well sounds like you didnt have skills to talk your way out of it or you were a Dick about it or it was good to get fired because fuck that!

omg im from CA and i had never heard of Brams before my Fiance introduced me to it while visiting him and omg i love it soo much!!!
AuntieMeat
This is why I only go to Braum's for ice cream, like the good lord intended.
iamwherethewildthingsare
Don't be so sure haha I worked fountain which included ice cream and it's just as dirty. When you close kinds clean is ok.
iamwherethewildthingsare
Most things will sit for weeks without getting cleaned such as scoops or the things that hold strawberries and cherries.
TheSparkySparkyBoomMan
because I was "removing sellable product" from the shelves. They backed off when I said if a guest ate it and got sick we'd be sued so hard
Lugh314159
What shop? ... so I can avoid it. (You can PM me with the name if you're worried about your job... but I really wanna NOT eat there.)
iamwherethewildthingsare
Man sometimes people are only worried about the money than someone's life or livelihood.
1stLtObvious
"Sometimes" being when they are upper management, shareholders, or owners.
nihilzero
I know this feeling. I used to run the Seafood Dept at the Fresh Market...the guy who ran it before me was SOOOO consumed with cutting loss
nihilzero
That he would try to sell STINKY fish after he washed it off with ice water to dull the smell. He was consumed with shrink b/c his sales...
nihilzero
were 50% of what they should be. I asked my boss about the department when I started: "Smell this. NOW do you see why no one comes back???"
xcelita
At Dairy Queen no one knew we were supposed to clean the ketchup dispenser. After 6mo my boss opened it & half of it was caked on nastiness.

Can't see is disgusting

When you've got forty minutes to close and there are more visible things that need cleaning we are told to clean them everything the public

yeah, wow, I still think about going to get revenge on some of the shitty joe-job managers from my youth, but they got nothing on yours.

I've had other bad jobs mainly is fast food but braums for sure will be unforgettable.

That is where you call HR, and the Health Inspector on their asses!

Remember, HR is there to protect the company, not the employees.
eddiebarzoon
Yep. You are a resource, and when the resource goes bad you throw it out.
iamwherethewildthingsare
I wanted to but I had been told that the shift manager that quit a couple months before me tried his best to get it inspected and made a lot
DeannaZone
oh my word!
o11c
Losing your job means you have monetary claims, that has a way of making things happen.
iamwherethewildthingsare
It really didn't matter to me at the moment I was just glad to leave the place I got another job with in the next two weeks so its a'll good
StephanieWasTheTrueVillainOfLazyTown
Call the health inspector.
TheOldNewSlowFast
...or just yell at the manager yourself, since you're right there? What's with this nanny state shit, just handle it.
ElizKM86
Well yes, that should ALSO happen. But if this is visible to the public, imagine how bad the violations must be behind the scenes.

Its against company policy? Shucks.

I just know people will go all hysterical and say all of the stores and employees suck. I worked at a BK, we cleaned those things.
ZacMuerte
yup. everywhere I've worked you take it apart and clean all the outer pieces nightly (splash guards, collection tray, nozzles, that stuff)

and once a week I get to disassemble and clean EVERYTHING. turns out: a lot of shit builds up inside as well. same with the ice machine

I just witnessed a drive-by shooting, so I reported it to the leader of the gang.
Kaysmira
Leader of the gang promotes violence; regional manager of a restaurant wants to promote sales, not food poisoning and lawsuits.
storebrandproductmascot
The manager wants max profits for minimum effort and expense, and many aren't above taking some chances to get that.
Ipurgepeople
You're talking corporate level, not managerial level.
SneakySpoons
Plus, this isn't about cutting costs because wiping something down doesn't cost money. It's about laziness and lack of supervision.
HornyZebras
Minimum effort usually doesn't result in max profits.
SneakySpoons
Uh Wut. Management outside of a store usually takes their job more seriously then those who run this single store.
