Hand-washing Police
Someone came up with the brilliant idea two weeks ago to make each department volunteer, or as we like to call it "voluntold", to stand guard by the hand-washing sinks outside the Galley to make sure everyone scrubbed up before entering. There is a big concern about spreading germs on station, and one way to minimize (supposedly) is to wash your hands before entering the Galley.
My department had a PM shift standing out front of the Galley for dinner. It was also the last time they made anyone stand guard.
My sign says, "The CDC recommends 20 seconds of scrubbing with soap to avoid spreading germs. Don't hate me because I'm clean. Hate me because I'm beautiful." And I obnoxiously timed people as they washed their hands.
This is my friend... we'll call him T. He let one guy pass by without washing his hands and one of the head honchos saw. He yelled out, "T, cut off his head!" Um, I think that's a little extreme.
