Just my opinion but unless you can get disposable latex gloves like cooks wear I think you’re better off just being really careful not to touch your face and wash your hands as a frequently and as soon as possible. If you can get the restaurant style latex gloves, you change them out after basically every task. Even before this when I was working with fish I changed gloves and washed my hands maybe 50 Times a day. Every time I drank water, went to get new pans, put away old pans, needed a measuring cup, whatever - I changed gloves and washed my hands. It protects the customer but it was really entirely for me. But anyway those big rubber gloves, unless you can constantly disinfect them are really hard to keep clean and it’s not scientific but just my guess, that pathogens stick to them really easily. Naturally you don’t want the pathogen to touch your hand either but even when I did dish I used the disposable ones. I’ve only seen a few people use the big rubber ones and everyone is worried about protecting themselves, not others. Again, it’s just my guess but the big rubber ones get covered in pathogens and they’re hard to wash.
On my last shift I thought about stealing a few boxes of latex gloves but didn’t because I know they’re expensive and they keep a secret eye on them same as produce. It would’ve sucked to have lost my unemployment because I got caught stealing on my last day. |
