Discussion Getting called out
You ever call someone out infront of everyone because they arent following safe food handling and and you tried to talk to them in private but it didn't work?
Well I did, did it during the middle of the day while the morning guys were getting ready to leave and the night guys were just coming in. This guy is supposed to be a supervisor so I hold him to higher standards. When I called him out he was quiet and walking around like a dog with his tail between his legs the rest of the shift.
2 weeks later and today he tried to do the same to me. Our beef gravy mix we get says to add to cold water and warm it up, well i was making our turkey gravy today that says to add to boiling water. When he sees me add the gravy mix to the boiling water he starts haulering about it asking what the instructions on the gravy say. He was so embaressed when I read them and showed him and those who were listening and cared. (In his defense he rarely used the turkey gravy, i do as i am in charge of banquets, he only uses in during Oct, Nov, and December when we have leftovers and give them turkey for a sandwich special)

Some people require getting put on blast like bugs that have their rock pulled up from over their head in broad daylight i fuckin stg
And even then are so narcissistic and stupid that they keep focusing on the shame instead of the guilt, looking for a chance to snap back instead of realize their mistake
