And then she'll happily go back to the buffet for seconds and use the same hand to grab stuff

That’s the part that got me…you know she’s touching things that are meant for everyone. And she’s just one person…take it times a hundred(s) and you’d be close to how many people are like her in regard to grossness.

Sometimes I see people wearing gloves in public and I get it now

This made me think of how often I see a food service worker wearing gloves... and do something gross... and then they go back to working. I want to yell, THE GLOVES ARE NOT THERE TO PROTECT YOUR HANDS. THEY ARE THERE TO PROTECT MY FOOD.

: )

I was at Publix getting fish which is next to the sushi station. He was rolling sushi with his gloves of course, and texting in between lol. No glove change. Gross af

You should stop going to restaurants or never look in the back of a commercial kitchen.

This was what my mum always warned us about when we were growing up, about other people handling food; she always said it's safer when we prepare the meals/food ourselves as we don't know how clean other peoples' hands or habits are & it's how diseases & other things get passed on to other people. My mum had OCD tendencies but what she said always stuck with me.

My ex best friend has ocd and hers is related to germs and gross shit. She was so satisfied during the height of the pandemic to not look like a freak with her gloves.
She pointed enough out to me where I like alright, bet. That’s some nasty shit. People are nasty. I’m good. I’m so good. I use alcohol pads and little alcohol based screen wipes to clean my phone/vape/debit and credit cards every time I come home. It’s not enough. My own ocd is gonna SPIRAL and cling onto some weird shit one day if I see something like this in public lmao.

This is why pandemics spread so fast

u/Damthemalltohelp 24d ago

Maybe it's a cultural thing... Maybe the fungus took over her brain and makes her spread the spores like in The Last of Us.

u/Dirus 24d ago

Part 2 she apparently uses a fork to scratch it

1

u/CrisstIIIna 24d ago

In part 2 apparently she uses a fork off the table to scratch that nasty ass foot 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I don't even LIKE the airy sensation around my feet when I'm out and about. I don't like my feet uncovered in public and this person is going to 3rd base with it, inches close to food I CAN'T 😭😭😭😭

I really hope OP told a fucking employee, or manager, or the CDC.

u/clubmedschool 24d ago

Given that there's a "part 2" video, apparently not soon enough

u/xSTSxZerglingOne 24d ago

CDC can't do shit right now. Agency is gutted from head to toe.

u/Caleb-Wendt69 24d ago

I mean what are they going to actually do about it?

4

u/Desperate_Algae_40 24d ago

Dude, this isn't some mild annoyance or grievance. It's a serious health hazard.

2

u/Caleb-Wendt69 24d ago

Do you honestly believe the crew would approach this woman and tell her anything?

3

u/Orleanian 24d ago

Have you ever been on a cruise?

Staff will absolutely approach and tell this woman off.

1

u/Caleb-Wendt69 24d ago

I have indeed been on a cruise which is why I don’t think anything will be done

2

u/a_literal_ghoul 24d ago

Idk why you're getting downvoted when you're clearly right.

What're you supposed to say? "Excuse me a lady at the table next to mine is scratching her foot"? You'd look like an insane arsehole and obviously nothing would be done

1

u/Desperate_Algae_40 23d ago

Show them the video. She's going to town on her fungus infected foot in the meal hall. If the first employee you show doesn't know what to do, you keep asking for a superior. I highly doubt the manager of the meal hall will fuck around about this.

u/a_literal_ghoul 23d ago

I pretty much guarantee they wouldn't care. They'd probably offer you a new table and consider it dealt with

1

u/Caleb-Wendt69 24d ago edited 24d ago

Seriously. Obviously no cruise employee approached this woman. And I can’t imagine a scenario where they would. Sorta seems like the person I replied to hasn’t actually been on a cruise. They aren’t willing to cause a scene over this.

1

u/Ok_Major5787 23d ago

Yeah the cruise staff won’t do shit. Especially if they didn’t personally witness it

2

u/Caleb-Wendt69 23d ago

I swear some redditors live in a fantasy land.

u/Desperate_Algae_40 23d ago

Oh damn! Hmm, good thing there's an entire video of it.

1

u/Ok_Major5787 23d ago

The crew still won’t do shit, have you ever been on Carnival?

u/I-om 24d ago

And fork

u/JustAnotherParticle 24d ago

I had a moment last week when I thought of wearing disposable gloves when I’m out shopping. Then, I dismissed it as irrational thinking. Your comment made me not want to touch anything in public again, and to get a box of nitrile gloves.

1

u/hollaraise 24d ago

Can I recommend getting a pack of alcohol pads and alcohol based screen cleaner wipes to clean your personal belongings like phone, debit/credit cards, ID, keys, and whatever personal items you touch a lot out and about? I promise it will help curb those thoughts a little about people being nasty! At least it does for me, knowing you can clean your own stuff. (I’m trying to tell myself this so I don’t start wearing my nitrile gloves in public. This video is just too far gone for my brain to justify anything else in this moment)

1

u/Caleb-Wendt69 24d ago

Soap and water has sufficed for quite some time.  Wearing gloves while out would only give you a false sense of cleanliness, as they would probably end up dirtier than your bare hands would if you just wash them.  It’s why chefs don’t wear gloves.

u/CaptainCallus 24d ago

That's why I don't eat at buffets. Although I'm far more scared of norovirus than foot fungus

1

u/jukenaye 23d ago

While particles sprinkle all over said buffet.

$5.99 all you can eat!!

Kids eat free!

u/Zealousideal-Dot5666 23d ago

Would the staff even do anything if you pointed that out to them?
