I have admitted more than once or twice that Zen comments are an inexhaustible source of both lulz and topics for new publications. Even in such a limited topic as food and everything related to it.
For example, a visitor to the city of Moscow was outraged that she was reprimanded in one of the Moscow canteens - with an "unpleasant tone." They said that the outer clothing (jacket) must first be removed, and only then go to the distribution.
For the first time in her life, the lady found out about it! I was in thirteen cities of Russia and abroad for a year - and everywhere, it turns out, in outerwear it was possible to shake the sleeves over the distribution windows, but in Moscow - look bad! - not happy about this.
To be honest, I haven't visited thirteen cities over the past year. But in general, I've traveled enough in my entire life - both in Russia, and in the near abroad, and in the distant ones.
And nowhere - I will repeat it again, nowhere! - I have not seen well-mannered, respectful of themselves and others, people who would go to self-service windows in outerwear, whether in cafes, in canteens, in restaurants with a buffet ...
It's kind of... Unhygienic even.
In jackets, but for food, in public catering, where there is no "open access" products - for health. You don't even need to wash your hands before eating. Everyone's personal file.
But when for distribution, where salads are on the shelves, hot in bain-marie, bread and other are laid out, and you need you wave all these sleeves of outerwear... Well, you should regret your own jacket, because you dunk it where - it's a pity. It is understandable who will take this food later, it is not a pity, on the contrary - they were honored by blessing them with a robe... They should be grateful that they were only blessed with a robe, and not watered with biological fluids.
But this, of course, is my opinion, of a retrograde, a moss-covered fly agaric, and even a "Muscovite", and we, as everyone knows, love to bend and, in general, are very bad, ill-mannered, radish people. No jackets in canteens on distribution. The nightmare is simple.
To be honest, I applaud the one who sent the lady to take off her jacket. And I'm surprised that no one has ever done this before.
Even if now it is a general fashion and a sign of good manners - in outerwear for food. How do you follow this fashion or how do I - more and more in the old fashioned way, take off your coats, wash your hands?
