Same problem with the bowl of mints at the register and the pen they hand you to sign your charge slip.
And cell phones, I always get creeped out if I remember to think about the germs and cooties when people hand me their cell phone in order to show me a photo or whatever. I usually don't think to put on rubber gloves first, but I should.
^well, it is McDonalds; I haven't been in one of those in decades.
Yeah but, where do you touch poop? Uh, I mean screens? Gas pump? Convenience store? Grocery store checkout? Every checkout counter anywhere you buy stuff? Just because you're never in McDonalds, doesn't mean you don't touch,..... screens.
I saw this thing on fb, how the hand driers in restrooms are blowing all this fecal matter around and onto your hands as you dry them. I say, yes that's true. I also say you're not in a sterile environment where the air driers are bringing in **** air from somewhere else; whatever the drier is blowing around is the same stinkin' air you've been standing in/breathing in for the last however long it took you to do your stinkin' job.
Of course, we want to be as cleanly as possible, because as they say 'Cleanliness is next to Impossible'... at the same time, I remind myself that God gave us an immune system, so who cares what germs are on my cell phone and every other damn place?

The headline is misleading. The headline says poop on the screens. But the study only says they find the same bacteria as is found in poop. It may well be that these same bacteria are common most anywhere that a particular study maker may want to calumniate for fake news.
Heck, the worst infections you can get seem to be iatrogenic. Redskins QB Alex Smith, for instance, is now suffering devastating complications from the surgery to fix his gruesome broken leg, and has undergone multiple subsequent surgeries to combat infection. My wife's first husband died from a hospital infection. These places are infamous. And yet, you would assume that both cleanliness standards and staff calibre in a hospital operating room are several cuts above what you are apt to find at the Golden Arches.
I'm thinking the headline is clickbait and the study could be repeated at any eatery in Cannes.

Just two days ago it was announced that Kevin Hart would host the 2019 Oscars. Next comes a backlash for old homophobic tweets. (BUT, I say the Oscars HAD to know this would happen, and WANTED this to happen. And they knew they were gonna win.) Plenty of people already knew about the pre-2011 homophobic tweets (and on stage jokes). Pre-2011 is important because that's when his movie star status began and he most certainly was "advised" by lawyers and PR professionals after 2011. Now back to the present. The **** ******* supposedly forced the Oscars to demand an apology from Hart in order to proceed. He walked. Good for him. But the **** ******* and the Oscars win either way. They either tame this straight man's past or use it to slay him.
And before you say "I couldn't care less about the Oscars", yeah, me either. It's not about the Oscars. It's about every incident like this where regular guys (who don't go along with the new "normal") are getting tamed or fired. I admit I'm mostly tamed already (HR wouldn't put up with me for long if I said everything that pops into my head) but this story made me a little mad to think about all this bullsh!t. Know what I mean?

He made a statement that he had already explained and apologized for the tweets several times over the years. I don’t blame the guy for putting his foot down and saying I’m not going to keep doing this; it’s in the past. Way to go Kevin Hart.
And after that video he still made new apologies on twitter. Will they be satisfied with this? Since he merely apologized to the LGBTQ community and did not also heap a truck load of praise on them,.... not gonna be good enough.
I have made the choice to step down from hosting this year's Oscar's....this is because I do not want to be a distraction on a night that should be celebrated by so many amazing talented artists. I sincerely apologize to the LGBTQ community for my insensitive words from my past.
I'm sorry that I hurt people.. I am evolving and want to continue to do so. My goal is to bring people together not tear us apart. Much love & appreciation to the Academy. I hope we can meet again.
While looking up info on this fiasco I stumbled across another twitter tweet from some random guy that puts it in a nutshell ,.....
Can’t watch Rudolph. Can’t listen to Baby It’s Cold Outside. Can’t say “Bring Home the Bacon.” Ed Sheeran can’t wear a T-shirt next to Beyoncé. That’s just in the last 4 days.
there's something seriously wrong with this situation, health care should not be this expensive: "While workers and their families in the Southern states shouldered the biggest share of the cost, Massachusetts employees saw premiums skyrocket and deductibles climb as well. The Bay State was one of eight states where single-person premiums on employer-sponsored plans rose above $7,000 and one of seven states where family premiums were $20,000 or higher in 2017."

Making health care mandatory does not make it affordable. No matter what you call the Act.

HR has had a couple of talks with me they go something like this. HR. Have you ever called someone you work with a re tard. ME. Sure did. HR. Why would you say that to someone? ME. Because they were being a re tard. HR. Shocked look on face and speechless. ME. We done here. HR. Nods head.

Grammar police are nothing compared to the institutional language fascists. They have the power of enforcement, (your job) and they tell you that you cannot say certain words. And I can understand the fascist's side of it too. Your employees are an extension of your business/government, and they must not go around saying things that conflict with the Business/government. Unless you are self employed, your complete and unfettered freedom of speech only exists as a concept, as a matter of practice, it does not exist. We agree to "incomplete and fettered speech" when we sign up for the job. And there's a document somewhere with my signature on it that says so.
My self and my employer know that they need me for two more years to keep that place running. Case in point Saturday night at the herf I received several calls from work for separate reasons. In two years our new building will be complete, with brand new everything, a monkey can run. I will not be shocked if that HR folder gets pulled out then, time will tell.

Ever use a public restroom, carefully wash your hands, and then grab the handle to open the damned door?
Hospitals--that where all the antibiotic-resistant germs live.

Here's what he had to say yesterday. (He's on tour in Australia and has to deal with trolls calling the shots back in the states.)
And after that video he still made new apologies on twitter. Will they be satisfied with this? Since he merely apologized to the LGBTQ community and did not also heap a truck load of praise on them,.... not gonna be good enough.
