Yep mommo it's a sniffer thread

Why do these politicians have to comment on every little issue? it just makes them look stupid. Just like Huke on same sex marriage, or Paul and Christy on vaccines and children. They just pander to a minute group of people and makes them look ignorant on a bigger stage. No one wants to visit a restaurant where employees don't wash their hands and the majority of Americans think the anti-vaccine bunch are just plain nuts.

He was just using that to illustrate his point. What about a restaurant with a buffet? The signs usually state that they require a new plate with each visit to the buffet. What if you have a sign that says "we don't require a new plate with each visit"? If other people having a new plate at a buffet is important to you, then you will stop going to that buffet.

BTW, buffets are nasty.

Glad I didn't vote for this moron. He is a total embarrassment to North Carolina. And somewhere, Kay Hagan is laughing and saying "I told you so" ROTFLMAO

"Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) said Monday that he's okay with the idea of service industry workers returning to work without washing their hands after touching their unmentionables, as long as customers are made aware of the situation."

This is really funny. If a sign was posted, say in Arbys, that workers are not required to wash their hands after going to the bathroom, how many customers do you think would come back? We all have figured out that some do not always wash (have seen it myself) but to have a sign saying a business does not require it would really bring it home and would turn people away from coming there again and would more than likely close down the business.

This is also funny..Do you really think a business could actually enforce regulations making workers wash their hands? I mean how can you regulate that? For it to be effective you would need someone monitoring where they go and what they do when going to the bathroom and boy would that be expensive! So expensive in fact that you may as well go ahead and close the doors.

Washing your hands after going to the bathroom is just good and decent common sense, no matter where you work or what you do.

First of all this really means nothing since these are regulations set by the state and controlled by the health Dept. Tills being a US rep has no say in the issue since it is a state issue. I see a lot of comments about how you wouldn't eat at a place yet you don't know for if Employee wash their hands now. I have a family member who use to inspect restaurants to make sure their sanitation was up to regs. and give them the score you see hanging on the wall. If you have seen some of the things I have seen you would never eat out again.

I agree that employees should wash their hands after going to the bathroom, taking out the trash, ETC. But you really have no way of knowing if it is done now law or not.

Looks like a liberal source to me so don't read to much into it. I doubt he ever said that.

Tillis is a idiot who want to eat after a person like that I do not.

But Chendo, a regulation mandating that they tell us is no less free market than a regulation mandating them to wash.

I think that's his point.

Ik...so we won't mandate certain things, but if you don't practice it, just tell us and give us the choice to eat somewhere else.

If a food server told me they didn't wash their hands , I wouldn't trust anyone working there, I'd talk to the manager and leave.

Just think of all the hands he shook on his campaign trail! EW!! You know he doesn't wash his own after making an idiotic comment like that. Should it apply to patients at hospitals, as long as they know? What a freaking moron!

That's right KenC. As long as customers are MADE aware.

So that means he's NOT OKAY with regulations making workers wash their hands but IS OKAY with regulations making people tell their customers they haven't washed.

This man has no idea what a free market is.

As long as the customers are made aware ? Oh my gosh !

This has no political affiliation at all, in fact it has not basis in common sense at all. This fool is just lacking in common sense and intelligence. I wonder if he washes his hands after going to the restroom?

Conservatard is as Conservatard does :'(
You can't make this stuff up

He might have won the most expensive legislative campaign in US history, but that doesn't mean he should manage your local Arby's.

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) said Monday that he's okay with the idea of service industry workers returning to work without washing their hands after touching their unmentionables, as long as customers are made aware of the situation.

Tillis made the declaration at to the Bipartisan Policy Center, at the end of a question and answer with the audience. He was relaying a 2010 anecdote about his "bias when it comes to regulatory reform."

"I was having a discussion with someone, and we were at a Starbucks in my district, and we were talking about certain regulations where I felt like �maybe you should allow businesses to opt out,'" he said, "as long as they indicate through proper disclosure, through advertising, through employment literature, or whatever else."
