I know people love fake hygiene, but gloves are disgusting af. I worked with food for a huge part of my life and washed my hands three times before I touched the first piece and throughout the day after each time I touched something. Was it good for my hands, no. Did anyone ever get sick from my food, yes if we count the spicy challenge we did with colleagues

This is all media just dog piling on Trump.
The diseases he spreads are WAY worse than e coli.
Hand hygiene >>>>>>>>> than gloves when it comes to food safety. Wash your hands sufficiently and frequently.
Yeah, he didn't do that either. I read that they asked him to and he said that his hands were nice and clean already.
Isn't Trump a germaphobe?
I just looked it up and apparently it's a lie he made up when asked whether he enjoys getting peed on.
Love it when people handle money with a gloved hand. They didn't understand the concept.
When he went to the bathroom earlier to do the mud pie... he must have used too small of a slice of toilet paper when he wiped, and he got mud pie on his tiny hands, and then he touched the fries, and then someone ate the fries, and now they are sick off of his mud pie.
Y'all real can't help but give Trump extra publicity on his stunt, eh
it is crazy since this was like right after saying he'd persecute his critics
There was a term I really liked for this kind of things: "Vacationing in poverty" I think, where people with wealth 'adventure' being homeless or something but don't even remotely appreciate that the people they're pretending to be don't have an 'off' switch or an easy out of their situations.
I find the whole premise despicable.
Kinda like that undercover boss show where they tried to show how great these CEOs are by throwing some money at specific employees that are struggling, ignoring that better leadership and compensation that lines up better with the value being created would improve things for all of the other struggling employees that weren't lucky enough to be assigned to boss babysitting duty (assuming the whole thing wasn't staged entirely).
It probably wasn't staged sadly. Those privileged billionaires saw the struggling employees as the exception, not the rule.
I know it wasn't because there was an episode where an employee disillusioned with life and struggling with drug addiction was fired "As a favor to him", and it was framed as being super wholesome, even though now that guy without any financial support and no way to get help will likely relapse harder than he ever has..
wat
why
How would you even frame that as a favour?
"It gives you the chance to put your life back in order" and other empty platitudes that ignore what's really happening.

I understand that you're quoting. This is no criticism of your comment. I consider myself fairly adept at imitating the mental gymnastics. But here, I'm at a loss.
The rich do not think critically about the world around them. They have never had to fight for anything in their lives, all their success is just handed to them. They've never had to make hard decisions.
This means that they have never had to be introspective or give any thought to how their actions affect those around them.
They are simply disillusioned because their wealth puts a barrier between them and the harshness of life.
So they do not recognize suffering when they see it, and when they do they blame the victim because they know that this couldn't happen to them, and that means it doesn't happen to anybody worthwhile.
Especially since they keep doing it to prove that "Oh anyone can be a millionaire, ya just gotta not be lazy.", and despite each of them failing when they fail to prove this, they still proceed to learn nothing form this.
If only I could show the world what rich people really think of the common man, but if thousands of films like "Joker" and "V For Vendetta" where that's the sole point didn't do it, then what the fuck else will?
This is a double-whammy PR nightmare.
Are we going to do what happened with Jack in the Box in the naughts and start associating E Coli with McDonalds? I remember hearing that FUD so much back then and now that the shoe is on the other foot, I wonder what will happen. 🤔 Not to engage in the fast food wars or anything, but also fuck McDonalds for helping this fat ass at all.
As much as I enjoy shitting on McDonald's, I don't think McDonald's corporate had anything to do with this. I'm pretty sure this was a franchise.
That being said, McDonald's may need to revisit some of the restrictions in their franchise agreements with regard to direct participation in political campaigns. A candidate visiting a location is one thing, but this restaurant directly arranged and participated in this nonsense.
As much as I enjoy shitting on McDonald’s
So you are behind the outbreak!
The owner of this franchise is a right-winger who has been fighting minimum wage raises and probably thinks those pencil-pushers at corporate can kiss his ass LOL.
Every october he dresses up and pretends he's the spookiest thing he can imagine. This year he's one of the poor ghosts that make his fries.
Back in 2016, I didn't understand how an extremely wealthy heir to a billion-dollar fortune (and regardless of all his business failures) could present himself as the candidate of the little people. Today, after Trump was president and - of course - only made policy changes for the rich, I understand it even less. What is this photo-op all about? Are there seriously still people who don't understand that Trump has never represented the middle class - or even the working class? You can't be serious, dear US citizens.
Yes. Half the country thinks Trump is for the little guy and Harris is an elitist asshole.
Trump was born rich. Harris grew up middle class and a member of two minority groups. The problem is the democrats are shit at messaging. It’s why Walz calling republicans weird took off. Democrats don’t usually come up with sound bites like that.
I sincerely don't understand how this is even possible. A lot of these people are old, do they not remember the 90's? Trump being "Smug Rich Asshole: The Character" was his whole brand, and people loved him for it because we were still drinking that "Capitalism good" kool-aid left over from the cold war.
How is this man with a literal solid gold toilet "The Voice of the People"
This whole nonsense makes me perfectly understand how "War of the Worlds" was mistaken for a legitimate news broadcast.
It's super frustrating but as an example - my parents are deeply conservative and supportive of Trump, and also on the lower end of "wealth" and semi-retired. It is 100% misinformation. My Dad quotes the Fox news rhetoric like it's facts, and regardless of me disproving most of the BS, he is completely brain washed. At this point Trump could run a live execution of his political opponents and the Trumpets would more or less shrug.
I mean..... Correlation does not mean causation, but in this case, I'm not sure.
Where I live McDonald's workers don't wear gloves. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Same here, but I don't think the workers tend to wear diapers either.
Probably comes from the beef itself (corrected by someone else, came from the onions) since it's an outbreak on a wide scale.
McDonald's workers where I live don't wear gloves yet there's no outbreak. Wearing gloves isn't more sanitary (it increases the odds that people won't clean their hands often enough), you still touch the gloves to put them on, if your hands are dirty the gloves are contaminated, if someone touches the gloves box with dirty hands then the surface is contaminated and cross contamination can happen every time someone takes a pair of gloves.
THANK YOU.
It's not gross because he's not wearing gloves, it's gross because he probably never washes his hands after digging in his ass all day.
Get your reasons this man is disgusting straight people!
I wrote a similar comment about this exact same situation on another post but from a more healthcare oriented perspective. Specifically that unless you have open cuts / sores on your hands as a healthcare worker, clean but nonsterile gloves do not protect the patient! They are an OSHA requirement in place to protect the worker from exposure to bodily fluids and caustic cleaning chemicals. And for chemo you glove twice.
Sterile gloves, which are used to protect a patient from infection and are used for surgeries and specific types of bedside procedures like urine catheterization, are packed in sealed packages in single pairs and must be applied in a highly specific way by a trained individual, the minimum license usually being an LPN and more often an RN.
Unless that beef patty is acidic enough to burn your hands while preparing it (and if it is I shudder to think what it would do to a stomach) gloves out of a 100-count box ain't protecting anybody from anything and at their worst are bamboozling people out of washing their damn hands.
LOL I wonder how far back this goes. When I was young and immortal I ate at McDonalds a lot because it was handy, and the Quarter Pounder (aka Royale) with Cheese was my favorite thing there. After decades of avoiding it I did venture into one a couple years ago. Was a yuge McLetdown.
Gloves and hot oil do not mix well. Good way to get gloves melted to your hand.
If you get hot oil on your hand, glove or no, you're gonna have a bad time.
It's not that bad unless you get a shitload on there. It's not even as bad as cutting your finger with a knife, I'd say.
