Fast Food Workers Take a Bath

I don't know whether to be disgusted or amused at this.

Employees Bathe In Kitchen Sink
ADVANCE, N.C. (AP) - Two fast-food restaurant employees who bathed in a dishwashing sink took cleanliness a bit too far, but didn't pose a health threat, the county's health director said.

The caper came to light because of photographs of the men taking turns posing, in bathing suits, in a large sink full of bubbles, said Barry Bass, director of the Davie County Health Department.

"From a public-health standpoint, you want the employees to be clean," said Bass, adding that the employees may have overdone it.

"I have been working in public health for 25 years and have never observed an incident like it."

The sink at the Wendy's has cleaning jets and is used to wash pots, pans and other cookware.

Bass said the restaurant won't be cited for any health-code violations, because no health official directly observed a violation.

The restaurant's manager assured health officials that the sink had been sanitized and that it wouldn't happen again, Bass said.

Wendy's officials did not return calls for comment.

A CVS pharmacy employee in Advance who was developing the photographs reported them to the Davie County Sheriff's office last week. The sheriff's office turned the case over to the health department.

It's not known who took the film to CVS to be developed or when the photos were taken.

Mike DeAngelis, a CVS spokesman, said it is company policy for photo technicians to notify a store manager if they suspect that a photograph shows illegal activity.

I'm kinda glad now that the Wendy's near where I lived was turned into Cafe.

Taking a bath? In a fast food dishwashing sink? Isn't that a bit counterintuitive?

I doubt they're any cleaner now.

Wow people do strange things

They must have been yelled at before for not washing their hands or something.
