As a side note, Alla, remember those comments that pop into your head sometimes, not all of them need to be said in public...

the manager should set her up to get into a load of trouble then fire her for it. rig her jew piano (till) to explode then plant c4 in her jacket or something. authorities place her in a nice warm prison where she can put creams and salves on her hands and fingers all day long and everybody is happy.

[wishbone]

Just a heads up, this is way fucking old.....

McDonald's must pay $50,000 for firing 23-year employee

Plus, if you've read any of McDix's paperwork on this, they let 'skin condition' people work there so long as they dont handle food now.

I know this, because it's a fresh 'case study' that a lot of HR course books talk about now.

Gloves wouldn't be an equally sanitary alternative unless you changed them every time you would normally wash your hands (get something from the freezer, touch a non-food-prep surface, the chime goes off, etc)...so as long as that was followed it would work, but how inconvenient would that be in a busy mcdonalds? You'd have to carry around a pack of gloves strapped to your waist or something.

see, dumbass manager should have bitten my c4 idea.

McDick's has a history of trying to spin their failing lawsuits to make it look like they're being victimized.

Need I remind people of the coffee-lap incident. Yes, burning yourself with coffee sucks and happens to a lot of us, but normally that coffee doesn't cause third-degree burns when it lands on your lap.

(For the record, third-degree burns are the ones that burn so fast they don't even blister, they just turn black, and you don't feel the pain because your nerve cells are dead)

I've seen plenty of kitchens that run on a gloves-only policy.

Yes, it would need to be changed the same time that you wash your hands. Just have a box of gloves in a central location to the kitchen and people can refresh whenever they need to.

if subway can do gloves and change them every time they make a new sandwich i think mcdicks could manage having people change them 4 or so times an hour at most.

[miss.myra]

yeah make the girl wash her hands!

...and then all you have to worry about is how completely horrible their food is for your body and the planet!

[GSG9]

my body > the planet

shouldn't "washing hands when serving food" be part of job description?

Which is in many respects like Rand McNally, but if you confuse the two they'd get angrier than an aussie who was just called a kiwi.

How could it be like Rand McNally? That's where the hamburgers eat people.

I avoided a deadly guessing game by choosing the mcdonald's on Russ Baker way this morning.

thank you for posting this.. it actually explains things more in detail... i feel sorry for this lady, i am sure they could of offered her a job that does not require food handling, maybe some type of office work..

but at least McDonalds took this chance and made sure it is safe to eat their food

Unfortunately the surrounding area tends to be affected with second degree burns which are not fun to deal with. Also, I'll take blisters over complete separation of the affected tissue from the unaffected deeper below it.

My 3/4 body third-degree burn victim was not a pleasant experience, and he definitely felt pain.

Yuuuuuppp, that's about right.

Still though, coffee shouldn't cause burns that cause neural damage.
