Eating off another persons plate

pat_cork

Right so I'm working as a waiter in the states and when I'm clearing tables and I see a lump of meat or chips I put them aside for myself.
No one really gives a **** bar 3 waiters who tell me it's absolutely disgusting, they say I coumd get dieases which I highly doubt fron sonething that hasn't been touched. I can see nothing at all wrong with it, the best of food for free otherwise I'd have to spend about $10 for a coupe of mouthfuls, I get half price food but its still ****ing robbery.
So am I the bollox or is it those other 3 *****? Thank you

People tend to push their food round the plate and stab it a few times with the fork theyve been slobbering all over..

So you pay $5 dollars for the best of food and it's still ****ing robbery?

Hmmm something not quite right here methinks.

Personally I find it gross, but that's just me. I mean a person is eating off a fork then pushing food around their plate with it, we all do it even if we don't eat the whole thing.

Eww disgusting , how can you now be sure they didn't spit it back on the plate

no no no no no

I know of a man that went to the butcher section of his local shop to get the meat they were throwing out :eek: He said if there were maggots on it just wash it off under the tap before cooking. That was back in the 80's.

Maybe he could just spit on their plate next time they come in for a meal problem solved

OP, you do realize that years from now when those 3 waiters have moved on in life and are looking back, they'll tell the story over a few drinks "of how years ago I worked in a restaurant and there was this Irish fellow who used to eat the scraps left by customers to save himself 5 dollars, 'lumps of meat and fries' he used to say. He couldn't see anything wrong with it, the dirty bastard." And then everyone will laugh.

More of a mean cnut than a dirty bastard, if he were sniffing the toilet bowls after customers using them you could call him a dirty bastard then

That's nasty. I wouldn't eat a strangers scraps unless I had no choice.
They could have sneezed or coughed all over it!

barney4001

good for you pat keep at it

BeerWolf

OP, you never know if someone's sneezed all over your food...

I'd rather have the unserved food that would go to waste otherwise at the end of the day.

No problem eating off people's plates that I know of, who I know are hygienic at least...

Did you ever eat out of a communal crisp bowl or chip bowl?

I'm sure I did as a kid, but I don't do it any more. Especially in pubs where most men don't bother washing their hands after handling their dirty knobs and taking a piss.

You're in the ball kid. Never thought about that before but it's a lot worse than what I'm doing at least only on person wss at my dinner.

A burger costs $18 and I get it for $9 but I'd eat 2 not a bother so what's wrong with taking 10 quarter burgers and chips amd having a decent free meal

How do you know the fries they didn't eat had fallen on the floor or something. Yuck!

diomed

Don't like that.
Another thing I hate is a family member who asks me for some of what I ordered (fork poised), and asks me do I want to taste some of their meal. No. Never.

So Johnny The Yank with a mouth full of herpes comes in, orders food, then repeatedly puts his fork into his herpes riddled mouth dragging out some saliva with it before putting the fork back into his food again. And then you go and eat it Pat?

Jaysus man, you letting the side down something fierce. Show a bit of dignity man and stop robbing food (PS that's what your doing, someone has paid for something and you're taking it).

That's nasty!! I thought you meant like a normal person. I'd eat off the same plate as my boyfriend (and even that annoys him) but random strangers? Dayum you high gurl?!

reading posts like that I assume you all do it after the meal - so you partners/moms/yourselves can have a bit more fun while dish-washing.

This way of thinking IS disgusting.
