This is a question Shops and Supermarkets

I used to work in a supermarket where the girl on the deli counter cut off the top of her finger in the meat slicer, but was made to finish her shift before going to hospital. You can now pay £100 to shoot zombies in the store's empty shell, haunted by poor dead nine-finger deli girl. Tell us your tales of the old retail experience, from either side of the counter

Dont piss the Fresh Food Staff off...
There's going to be a million of these, ifact I've got a few like the Donut Filling Machine, head under neath it, how much strawberry jam filling could you fit in the new saturday lads mouth and hat or the "Eat as many Mini Babybels in the Backup Freezer" Challenge.

Anyway, Pizza Prep. Where freshly made pizzas were made. Saturday was a busy day, making loads of fresh pizzas, sealing them on the machine then putting them out. Except 1 stuck up woman pushed to the front, grabbed me and demanded 2 fresh 12" Cheese and Onion ones. I picked 2 out of the pile i was putting out saying "We've just made these, here you go" as politely as i'd been trained. Oh no, those weren't good enough. "You look scruffy, i don't want pizzas you've made - get him to make me some more" pointing at my equally less-interested and more scruffy mate.

"Yes Madam" he replied.

I hope she enjoyed the massive boogie (booger for the Merkins) that 'Snotty Eric' smeared on the bottom of the base along with the cheese swept off the floor. A small petty victory none the less.

Yeah, OK.
People getting paid to work with food, who fuck about with the food should be painfully killed.

In the very unlikely event this actually happened, of course.

why would it not happen?
It's not like I'm having a wank into a curry or a gobbing onto a burger - wiping a boogie on a pizza base isn't the most extraordinarily risky or difficult thing to do, is it? it's very pedestrian infact! a bit of cheese of the floor? Yeah, that has to be the most unbelieve thing ever written about hahah you clip.

Often, we'd also stick massive finger prints in huge tubs of butter as we stuck them on the shelves! We never got bollocked for that one, i always wondered why people didn't complain or what i would do with a finger shaped hole in the top of my Flora!

And if she wasn't even going to have the pizza?
Others who won't have deserved it will take the punishment instead.

Small minded pettiness, what a way to improve the World we live in.

I am with UFM, that is a cunty thing to do.
Before my work brought me to offices and nice hours I was a Chef,
I have never fucked around with someone's food no matter how tired, angry or pissed off I was and would have sacked any one I caught doing such things.

The customers pay the money to come and get what they want, you get the wages to make them feel happy.

It's what teens do in Supermarket jobs when they think they're better then everyone else in the world - I'm not justifying it, i'm justifying i'm not making up a relatively minor snot story

Quite agree. I worked in a pub as a waiter in my dim and distant youth. I actually observed the owner gobbing on salad, boiling up used socks with the peas, and so forth. Apparently, he also liked to give people he disliked a 'brown prawn' - IE, a standard prawn, which had been poked up his bunghole. Never observed the latter, but I have no reason to believe the grubby sod wouldn't do it. Wish I'd had the balls to call him up on it at the time.

He went bankrupt eventually. Good thing too. At least the OPs bogey got cooked, unlike the potentially-dangerous brown prawn...

Balls
I'm with the OP, NEVER piss off the people preparing your food. Often they are not well paid, often they have to deal with horrible entitled cunstomers, and it takes less than a second to gob into a burger, for example. Read "Down And Out In Paris In London."
