Gloves on, at point of contact with pan. Remove casing, on this table, lift into pan. My hips would be against counter, if heavy/slips, that is a big table. Put water in pan, carry to stove or oven, or rolling cart, but 50lbs lifting is in my job description, so i don't bother with carts, too many extra steps. That would be one messy cleanup, cold or hot. Cold may be a save, with a serious wash, because can cook off germs. High temps are great for that.
Hot ham on floor....too hot to handle, and eww...
Or if slicing ham....um, where's the cook to kill bacteria, there weren't extra hams? Take off menu?

Alas, you mention, if i recall, nursing home??? I've personally heard stories about lacking dietary regulations, never mind sanitation.

She was slicing the ham bare handed on the slicer and it had fallen on to the dirty floor. She had picked it up and said whoops am I clumsy. I had asked her what are you still going to slice it; I wouldn't if I were you. She said I'm rinsing it don't worry.

I should of thrown it away; I wasn't thinking myself.

Also I'm thinking I should just go ahead and e-mail my boss because I am getting angrier by the minute thinking about this and don't see a need for patience in this kind of situation at the moment. I didn't have time to speak to him today and the last couple days of me noticing these actions more, he was not there. I'm not working this weekend, that is why I want to e-mail him and tell him that I feel we can talk more about it Monday. Maybe when I say something, HE will start noticing more like I have been and it will bug him too.
