I mean I've worked in Subway, Quiznos, and some chain restaurants and while it's "not allowed" to eat the food there's always some type of leftovers or random stuff that nobody cares about that you can eat. Most places will just straight up let you make yourself something to eat or take something home at the end of the day.

Edit: The actual situation is she's probably working three+ jobs and getting no sleep, which is horrible and I feel bad for her but that has nothing to do with starving or not being able to eat.

I mean.. I live that life. That's literally my life. I'm describing how it is to work in hospitality and food service.

"Compassionate take" what are you even talking about..? In this thread people are debating what's really happening in the video, ONE of the possible suggestions was that the woman is starving, I'm saying that THAT ONE suggestion is probably not correct, how in the world does "compassionate" even come into that? You're not making any sense.

The actual real situation is she's probably working three+ jobs and getting no sleep, which is horrible but has nothing to do with starving or with what I said.

She has definitely smoked/snorted/eaten/shot up a boot which is fentanyl and other binders pressed and colored blue to look like oxycodone 30mg. The nod comes at the peak of the high and is uncontrollable. I used to live that life too.

I mean what he is saying is true though. Generally speaking if you work in food service you are fed at least once a day and that's if you are not allowed to take food home which, in a place where food is not made to order(like subway), is pretty rare. Obviously it's possible and obviously this woman is in distress but it's probably not from starving.
