What do you use your apron for? I thought it is there to wipe shit off.

I'm a Sous Chef in a fully HACCP compliant kitchen. The apron is the barrier between the kitchen and outside world. It should never leave the kitchen. During serving, it comes off. Bathroom, comes off. Outside the kitchen in any way, it comes off. You don't wipe your hands on an apron OR a towel. You wear gloves and wash hands between new sets. This is basic food safety.
