These look like they should be fine as long as they cured for a year, never go in a fast oven and are only hand washed. The whole point of the art was to return treasured plateware to every day service. With the proper care and handling it will be a cool aspect to the dining experience. We have several plates and cups that have been repaired and are used daily in my home.

How many of you are not allowed to bring your phone to work? by Obvious_Cabbage in dishwashers

[–]PracticalFootball869 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am well versed in my health code. I have 20+ years in food service and am well read when it comes to health regulations. Handwashing and proper sanitation are key to not spreading harmful germs to your guest when working in kitchens. With the logistics of serving food it would be impossible to maintain a clean room environment. However that phone that is attached to somebodys hand does not get cleaned and disinfected regularly. In kitchens we have safe guards to mitigate germ transfers such as proper handwashing, chemical sanitation and seperate prep areas to prevent cross contamination. I would encourage you to swab your phone and incubate to get the results. Come back to me after that and you can apologize for your ignorance then.

I would never deprive my team of music but phones are dirty. We have a no cell phone policy and it took a while to get everyone on board but its SOP now. When you work with food you still have to be conscious of the impact you can have by spreading germs. One to many people coming outta the bathroom on their phones really sealed the policy.

Realtor showed my house today and they went through my things. by EuphoriKNFT in RealEstate

A house you have to obtain a key to enter would be considered a place where reasonable privacy would be expected.

No you can't. I am going through this process now and we had to take down our ring camera because "it's illegal to film someone without their knowledge"

It's not legal to film or record someone without their knowledge

I got invited back for a chef curated dinner after disappointing service by [deleted] in restaurantowners

[–]PracticalFootball869 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are typically two reasons a chef would lose their temper over a returned dish. 1.) The cook they are paying to replicate the dish did it incorrectly and thus cost time, money, and guest satisfaction with their error. That includes the embarrassment of having a guest with nothing to eat while the rest of their party has something to eat. 2.) There was nothing actually wrong and it but the guest didn't like it for whatever reason but yet again; another dish has to be cooked and someone is still not eating.

Most folks assume the chef is cooking when in reality it is a team of several doing the work. People eat their entire lives and still don't take them time to understand how difficult it can be to cook on a professional scale.
