GOP Senator wants restaurants to opt out of hand washing to reduce regulations

If what you say is true than isn't it the Starbuck worker who asked the question the one at whom you should be aiming your derision?

Why should the questioner be derided unless you thought it was he who suggested doing away with handwashing regulations?

The questioner didn't suggest it. He was asking the Senator if he was crazy enough to do away with them, and the Senator said he was.

And the questioner was not a Starbucks worker.


Of course you didn't actually read the article. You made that clear. Thank you for sharing.

Irony!
 
For those who didn't read the article but only the silly OP remarks, here's what the senator actually said, “I said, I don’t have any problem with Starbucks if they choose to opt out of this policy as long as the post a sign that says ‘We don’t require our employees to wash their hands after leaving the restrooms.’ The market will take care of that.”
I'm sending the op six Katyushas....group award.
 
Why? Does he have a sign up?

Every person that ever had dinner at Senator Tillis' house is now getting their mouth tested for ebola, salmonella, ecoli, and fecal matter.

WTF is wrong with these people. Seriously, WTF is wrong with Republicans? There is something physically wrong with their brains.
 
oh whatever. people are getting sick from the damn food they are bringing in from other countries. so what the hell washing hands going to do to stop anything. good grief everything is major in you people lives

Poor Steph, did you have to eat some food made by a non-white person again. DRAT!

I have and it was the best damn food I ever ate!
 
And now we get an excuse to go to the old joke vault:


Last week, we took some friends out to a new restaurant, and noticed that the waiter who took our order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket. It seemed a little strange. When the busboy brought our water and utensils, I noticed he also had a spoon in his shirt pocket. Then I looked around saw that all the staff had spoons in their pockets.
When the waiter came back to serve our soup I asked, "Why the spoon?" Well," he explained, "the restaurant's owners hired Kurt Salmon Associates to revamp all our processes. After several months of analysis, they concluded that the spoon is the most frequently dropped utensil. It represents a drop frequency of approximately 3 spoons per table per hour. If our personnel are better prepared, we can reduce the number of trips back to the kitchen and save 15 man-hours per shift."
As luck would have it, I dropped my spoon and he was able to replace it with his spare. "I'll get another spoon next time I go to the kitchen instead of making an extra trip to get it right now." I was impressed.

I also noticed that there was a string hanging out of the waiter's fly. Looking around, I noticed that all the waiters had the same string hanging from their flies. So before he walked off, I asked the waiter, "Excuse me, but can you tell me why you have that string right there?"
"Oh, certainly!" Then he lowered his voice. "Not everyone is so observant. That consulting firm I mentioned also found out that we can save time in the restroom. By tying this string to the tip of you know what, we can pull it out without touching it and eliminate the need to wash our hands, shortening the time spent in the restroom by 76.39%."
"After you get it out, how do you put it back?"
Well," he whispered, "I don't know about the others, but I use the spoon."

Every cop in every town in America would be at the mercy of fast food workers.

Now that's funny.

yes, and then promptly go out of business. AND HE IS A SENATOR? Oh wait....he is a REPUBLICAN SENATOR.
That's right. People won't want to eat at restaurants where the employees don't wash their hands after they use the bathroom. Then the restaurant will go out of business. Anybody who says that is talking sense. Yes, even if he is a REPUBLICAN SENATOR.

Don't sweat it, Jim. If you want your food handled with poopy hands you are free to continue doing so at home.

lol, that's way too much for some people. they have a need to control everyone.

So in essence, that GOP nutcase wants to reduce the "onerous" regulation burden by modifying one regulation to allow for an "opt out" provision of said regulation and ADD another for additional signage if the "opt out" provision is exercised. That is GOP regulation reduction?

Which is completely stupid.
 
oh whatever. people are getting sick from the damn food they are bringing in from other countries. so what the hell does washing hands do to stop anything. good grief everything is major in your lives. this is stupid to go and attack the whole gop party over. sit down
Don't you work in a school cafeteria? This is frightening.
 
It's not about stopping all hand washing, just in places like Starbucks, they can opt out if they post a sign saying that they did.
 
The American people should opt out of paying idiots like this Senator. At some point the adults have to stand up and say "this guy is 6 years old and has no place as dogcatcher let alone Senator".
 
The dumb shit would do away with the regulation requiring food handlers to wash their hands after wiping their asses.

The dumb shit would then create a regulation requiring the establishment post a sign the food handlers don't wash their hands after wiping their asses.


LMAO Im against Regulations thats why I'll create a regulation saying I hate regulations!
 
Calm down. Just because your entire party is dumb, we all include you in the group. Don't worry, you belong.

oh whatever. people are getting sick from the damn food they are bringing in from other countries. so what the hell does washing hands do to stop anything. good grief everything is major in your lives. this is stupid to go and attack the whole gop party over. sit down
