Trump sported neither gloves not a hair net as he worked at a branch of the fast food chain in Pennsylvania

…

Earlier this year, this location didn’t meet the compliance requirements of the Bucks County Health Department. A health inspection in March at the Feasterville-Trevose location resulted in four violations, including citing employees not having their “hands clean & properly washed.”

“Food employees are not washing their hands as required before putting on gloves, after handling soiled tableware, after handling raw meat, before handling clean tableware, equipment, utensils. CFSM must review hand washing requirements with staff. Observed employees handling raw beef with gloves and then switching gloves without hand washing step in-between,” the health inspector wrote.

The report also noted a lack of hairnets: “Food workers are not wearing hair restraints as required, which includes management that assists in packaging and preparing food. Employees shall wear hair restraints such as hats, hair coverings or nets, that are effectively designed and worn to keep their hair from contacting exposed food; clean equipment, utensils and linens; and unwrapped single-service and single-use articles.”

    Don Jr then boasted: “I think my father knows the McDonald’s menu much better than Kamala Harris ever did.”

    Yeah I’m sure he does, you fucking dumbass

        He also knows way more about cheating on wives, wanting to fuck his daughter, getting millions of people killed, bankrupting a casino, being impeached, losing the popular vote twice in a row, and being convicted of felonies than Kamala or even most Americans. Y’all should brag about that, too.

        The MAGoos were trying to manufacture a scandal; they found one of Harris’s old resumes and tried to imply that she was ashamed of her roots. Supposedly, she should have put in her time at McDonalds on a professional resume. If that sounds like a weird overreach, it’s because it is a weird overreach

          Thing is they have to reach. Because they don’t have any real arguments. The whole thing is a grift, so they just say whatever stupid shit they think might resonate with people they have no respect for.

              Shit, my partner put their masters degree on a fucking to-go orders job at a restaurant…and there were 3 rounds of interviews.

          When I was starting out every resume book, class, website said not to put retail or food service jobs on your resume unless you were applying to your very first professional job (shows you can hold a job and have some experience working with others and taking orders from a manager) or it was relevant to the job you were applying to.

          The reason Trump and his handlers think this is such a gotcha is because they got all their jobs from mommy and daddy and their parents’ friends. His cult has worked the same job their entire life, don’t actually work and collect worker’s comp, or don’t need a resume for the type of job they have.

          Not really impressive.

          I review a lot of resumes. When it’s for someone right out of school or very early career, it makes sense for them to include things like fast food work or retail. But it seems really strange when someone with decades of relevant experience (I hire software engineers) includes it.

            I put strange stuff like that in my resume just to stick out to people like you. Twice now I’ve been hired partly because I’m a Dungeon Master.

              You know, I’ve had this debate with other managers at work. One was incensed because he got a resume that listed being a raid leader, and thought it was ridiculous. I told him I used to be a WoW raid leader and, even though it’s a game, it requires explaining encounters to people who might not be familiar with them, getting ten or more people to follow a game plan, staying calm when things aren’t going to plan, and a whole lot of other skills that are useful in the workplace. I’ve never thought to put it on my own resume, but I think it’s pretty valid.

      I think the only reasonable response to that quote would be: “Weird flex but ok…”

      Don Jr really can’t stop saying the dumbest things and making himself or whoever he’s talking about look worse in the process. I’d say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, but I honestly think he’s actually even less aware than his dad.

    I think we should just forget talking about Turnip and just talk about Kamala Harris instead.

    Did you know her mother, Shyamala Gopalan, was a biologist who arrived in the United States from India in 1958.

        As the San Francisco district attorney and the attorney general of California, Harris was the first woman, the first African American, and the first Asian American to hold each office.

    It doesn’t matter, they’re voting for him anyway. The idea is to boost Kamala enough that planned nonvoters, vote.

    That’s all. That’s the point of the campaigning. One more shitty Trump thing on the shitpile of shitty things that have accumulated in 8yrs won’t change anything.

    What changes is convincing non voters to vote Kamala. And that happens by talking about Kamala, not Trump.

          Reality vs the alternative reality of Cluster B narcissistic personality disorder. In other words, the reality of an untreated mental illness being grossly manipulated by those around him so they can claim power.

    He looks so fucking tired.

    It’s not even a real job or even a shift, it’s a photo op and he looks like he’s about to collapse in all those photos.

    The restaurant closed down for 30 minutes while Trump played dress up. It’s unclear if the branch’s workers were paid during that interim.

    Is it unclear though? I think we all know the answer to that.

    Good that the media has something else to focus on besides his flaming fascistic rhetoric… This is much more important.
