when you dictate text to a phone it bleeps out the words that make baby jesus cry. upon discovering this i realized: 1. how often i curse in text messages and how it might reflect upon my character 2. that i didn't have much use for text dictation after all, if poo poo was gonna gently caress up all over like that.

I hope it pushes management to actually fire predators rather than blaming anyone who reports harassment, labeling them a troublemaker and finding an "unrelated" reason to replace them. Victims don't keep silent for fun.

This. I really really want things to develop to a point where consequences are visited upon creeps who don't have checkmarks next to their twitter handle or whatever.

Come to southern Ontario, there's snow but you still don't really need a jacket ever (as someone who grew up in Saskatchewan, where Real Cold(tm) happens). As for the sexual harassment poo poo coming down the pipe, I actually truly hope that a few people are nailed to a loving cross, the rest are professionally punished in a way that fits their violations, and maybe, just MAYBE, sometime in the next decade people learn to keep their loving hands, comments, and everything else to themselves.

Whilst not working in the hospitality culture (I work in broadcast media), I saw firsthand and also heard afterwards about the more handsome men in our dept being openly hit on/physically assaulted by the gay men who run the upper echelons of our media company at our Xmas party. It's absolutely laughed off when anyone suggests reporting sexual assault/workplace harrassment. Gays just don't do that. Or do they? Yes they do. And they're no less involved in destroying the culture and morale than any predatory straight guy. Its endemic.

I worked in a pretty unionized kitchen and they came down hard on harassment. Even a man shaming another one for having a younger girlfriend was almost fired, and we were regularly encouraged to report poor treatment, and measures were regularly taken. Even then, stuff still bled through. You'd notice one cook would disproportionately pick on women and only women for making mistakes to the point where the woman would be driven absolutely nuts. I told the chef that I no longer wanted one of the cooks in my department (large hotel) because it seemed like he just spent a total of an hour just bothering this one girl with "Look at these two diced onion pieces in your five pound pile that are stuck together you can't do that!" type bullshit every day to the point of her getting nervous whenever the door to our department would open. I know unions aren't ideal and can exacerbate things when it becomes a club, but they have the potential to be a third party to put pressure on this kind of crap.

It's the god drat restaurant industry..... Sexual behavior between men and women goes both ways. It just happens. Don't act like it doesn't happen in every restaurant. If you wanna imply the no hooking up with employees rule that's fine. But I've seen that and it barley if ever works. Thank you and good day.

I'm having a hard time deciding where to start between the conflation of consentual sex and harassment, biotruths, and "if you outlaw loving employees then only outlaws will pull them loose guts" I need a spotter to bench press this much dumb.

Don't poo poo where you eat is a Golden rule that should be stamped on the forehead of everyone working in kitchens, everywhere. That's my hot take, I'll go back to the wonderful world of retail and be glad I don't work in kitchens anymore.

I have a much lighter question. Shrimp with tails on. Speaking only as an ignorant customer, why? Making me disassemble my meal and inevitably find bits of tail somewhere kinda hurts the dish. Why do so many places do this?
|
# ? Dec 15, 2017 13:30 |
shrimp actually just came up recently in sietsema’s q&a. some of it’s presentation, some of it’s to keep the tail from burning in certain prep methods, since it’s narrower than the rest of the shrimp.

Elizabethan Error posted:durr hurr hurr autism is funny rite guis - mindphlux, 2017 I worked with an autistic kid that should straight up be a stand up comedian because he has no inner filter. Mid meeting raises his hand, sales manager asks him what makes him uncomfortable, he says this meeting. He says what we're all thinking, and nobody's going to discipline him because he's autistic. Great kid, works hard, absolutely hilarious.

it takes half a second to separate the shrimp meat from the tail, the only style i find kind of inconvenient is if they leave the whole shell on the shrimp and that's pretty rare just eat it the same way you would a mussel or a clam served in their shell

It's a great idea, but as you say, when it becomes a club poo poo goes awry pretty badly and quickly. In my experience, humans are basically good as individuals (see the lady who found my wallet last week) but put them in a group under one flag and it gets feral after awhile. That said, unions made Australian workers laws the envy of the western world back in the 40s thru the 80s. It's only now that union membership and participation is so weak, and we have a conservative government intent on destroying them that they will be an anachronism unless the equally shithouse Labor government gets back in. It's a suck/suck situation.
