I cut my finger badly working night shift at Subway in high school. Knife was so sharp I didn't even feel it. Ironically this guy ordered 3 roast beef subs. During the whole process we're both like "damn that's some bloody roast beef" until it was on the outside of the paper and on the bag. That's when we noticed my finger was pouring blood. I couldn't get it to stop and had to call the owner as I was the only employee in the place.
Needless to say the guy left without the sandwiches.

I did the same thing. Those bread knives were SERIOUSLY sharp. Back in the days of the U-gouge, I put the blade right in the thumb pad of my right hand. Hurt like HELL for a month.
Ok maybe a week. :burgerking:

I once worked in a bakery. It was mostly clean but - they kept the 100 lb bags of sugar and flour stacked on the floor on a pallet by the door. Part of my job was to take the 100 lb bags and fill the big rolling bins.
So I go and grab a bag, between the bags was a layer of roaches. When the bag moves, they run to the next layer down.
So one day I dumped a bag into the bin and the roaches had gotten into the bag of sugar. Now they were in the main bin. I told the manager who told the owner. He called me upstairs to his office - which was scary for a young kid. In my mind, Italian bakery = mob owned. lol
He said to me, "you know those big sifters that hang on the wall?"
"Grab one and an empty bin and sift the bugs out." WTF?
That was my last week there.

Heh. Before Subway I worked at an independent bakery/donut shop. 11pm-4am assistant baker. The guy I was assisting thought he was a vampire. Literally. He had had his teeth done, wore a cloak, and drove a monstrous old Cadillac he had painted flat black. It said "HATE MACHINE" in white above the front grill backwards like an ambulance.
I wish I could say that was unique but this was in Salem, MA, and it was only more out of the closet than usual.

That would explain this one job. I worked at a mid-mountain cafeteria as a busboy and gopher. There we made pizzas, the kind where they used cheap----steaming pile of meadow muffin--- ingredients but tried hard to be a high class place. In any case, we didn't have garlic. None. Zip. Zero. Being Italian I thought this was strange since every other place owned by the owner used garlic. Turns out the "cook" wouldn't be around garlic, wouldn't eat it, wouldn't even look at the plant. He absolutely refused to explain why, but everyone else there cited the same reason. It was against his religion. ::)
So to test my theory, I brought a huge bag of garlic and made the biggest damn pizza loaded with garlic. Stunk up the whole place.
I got called in about a week later and got a "stern" talking to by the chain boss and was told never to bring garlic again... ever. I had to respect another persons religion. As he pulled out the dreaded disciplinary sheet, I asked him what religion could it possibly be that absolutely forbade garlic, he clammed up, set the sheet aside, and kicked me out of his office. ???
