    Most commercial ice machines have mold in em :shrug-outta-hecks: it's what happens naturally happens when you don't pay employees enough to clean the giant pain in the ass machine that's always wet

      Ok but are there bed bugs in most break rooms?

      The Roastery’s baristas, bartenders and bakers have been on strike since Oct. 25 following staff sightings of bedbugs in the breakroom and mold in the ice machines.

        If those bed bugs in the breakroom are being ignored, every single place that the workers live is now potentially an additional site for bed bugs. :joker-amerikkklap:

    Idk what it is but I hate this style of headlines. It doesn't really need to be two sentences with the second not standing on it's own. You can just do one sentence!

      Agreed. I wish headlines would just say what's happening. "Union on strike due to mold in starbucks ice machine!"

      It could be worse. It could be the smug :maybe-later-kiddo: format, like "Sorry, but" or "Like it or not."

    Never drink anything from a dispenser you don't clean and don't trust someone to clean. Which, for me, is none of the ones in public/restaurants.

    I'm probably a little paranoid though, I don't connect to the grid at all and filter my well for all the heavy metals and various bacteria in the groundwater around here just because I know eventually the shitty privatized/subsidized sewers and water in my area will go belly-up during the next infrastructure crisis.

    I wonder if there are any food inspectors who aren't raging communists within a year of starting the job.
