Yesterday at work a co-worker had dropped a big hunk of ham on the floor and then put it back onto the slicer. I asked her "Are you planning on slicing that again?" She said yes do not worry I rinsed it and it will be cooked through. I told her that is not safe she said it would be fine. I walked away then.

I know I could of picked it up and thrown it away but I didn't. I was hesitant and then walked away. I have a gut feeling they had complained to another co-worker, which I felt awkward and hurt because she kept talking quietly to the co-worker around me. I know she likes to complain about others quite often. She is nice to your face and yet complains.

I feel like speaking to her on Tuesday about that incident again and asking her if she would of liked to eat that ham after that would have fallen onto that nasty floor. The floor doesn't get cleaned very well too. Plus I'll tell her how it's not sanitary at all and that elderlies are twice as likely to get sick than adults. If she tells me that I am too worried then I'll tell her that I do not want to have to go to the manager about this. Which I DO NOT.

There are only a few professional workers in the dietary department at the nursing home I work at. Too much complaining and negativity. I put too many topics on here to still be working there. I need to make a stand for myself.

I am working there for the benefits that we get and plus I do like the job it self not the environment though.
