Protected teacher says
P.S. I don’t think that our current system for dismissing ineffective teachers is very good. On the other hand, I have witnessed the same system ‘protect’ teachers that are being harassed for personal vendettas by administration.
I don’t have the answer for solving this problem and don’t pretend that I do, however I don’t attack the system without a viable solution.
rob says
Really???? The only possible way for all those restaurants to have the exact same problem is an inspector that has a bad thermometer, a change of rules without notification, or a new inspector that doesn’t know the rules. The restaurants listed should file a class action lawsuit for libel.
PuntNugget says
No, there is a table of acceptable temperatures that are set by the Government that state “hot food must be kept this hot”, and “cold food must be kept this cold”.
If the steam or ice tables under the trays of food are not at the proper temperature, then the food won’t be either. Also think of the food left sitting under the heat lamps pending delivery to either your house, or your table…ever wonder why your food sometimes arrive cold?
Sometimes, restaurants will know of the issue and continue business as usual.
Dot Dernetz says
I agree with the bad thermometer I think they should be rechecked since I know some of those places have to check the tempersure 2 times a day and once at night.
Pamela says
“Food workers must practice effective hand washing procedures”. Are they witnessing employees not washing their hands before handling food or after leaving the restroom? Ugh! What makes a person, restaurant employee or otherwise, fail to wash their hands in these types of instances? How do you not wash your hands before leaving a restroom you just used? Although I wonder why the restrooms in many restaurants, especially fast food restaurants, don’t seem to have hot water or they have very feeble sink pressure. The restrooms are usually nasty. Why is that?
