You almost had me. I thought that was a dirty broth someone threw some chili oil in

**What**, on Gods green Earth, are you touching with **that** water and making it **cleaner**?

Is it sink one or three?

Nasty. Common sense says to drain and refill
wolfmilkslime
ohh no. flashback to my grandmother’s house as a kid. the water would ferment in the summer heat and STILL dishes would be washed and not rinsed. “24 hour flu” was a constant in my family

The bartenders end of night dump bucket at my work is cleaner than that dish water. What even hahaha

At least those dishes are getting wet. I’ve worked with a few people (thankfully not very long) who didn’t even get the whole dish wet. How could I tell? Because the dissolvable label didn’t even have a drop of water on it.

I mean someone’s probably soaking something to make cleaning easier. Ain’t nobody washing dishes In that

Probably the most important job in the kitchen, yet it’s always some bum off the street doing it 😆

Urine for a treat with these dishes!

Sink 1 can get as dirty as you can stand it’s just for getting stuck on crud off. That being said I usually drain and refill it when a lull in incoming dishes happens.

That’s just for soaking before the dish tank right?

That’s an instant cycle from me, dawg. If I walk by the dish pit and see any part of the 3-compartment like this, I flip the drain handle and keep it moving.
I’ve been a dishie, and I take that shit seriously.

Everytime I have ever worked fast food this is exactly what the sink always looked like that’s why I can’t eat fast food anymore. You would be shocked what your local fast food kitchen really looks like And what goes on in there. Sure, there’s a few outliers that tak pride in their work but 90% of fast food kitchens look like this in the us I can say for certain.

I saw water like this daily. At close a lot of the cooks would bring their pans back and dump them in the sink water. When you take out all the pans and scrub/machine wash that is what is left over.

There’s a knife at the bottom, bet

Looks like the soaker, soak the tough stuff in that for a bit, scrub clean, hit it with fresh detergent water scrub rinse and sanitize.

Pfft if it’s still got bubbles, you ain’t got no troubles….

God I don’t miss working in kitchens, especially when I started out as a dishwasher. That was THE most thankless and ungrateful job I’ve ever worked and I was constantly getting sick despite diligent hygiene practices. Only good thing was I eventually made it up to line cook and also got to fuck one of the waitresses for like a month.

I like to call that shit “Backwash Soup”
If you need a soak tub, fill a pot.

IF THE WATER ISNT FUCKING CLEAN HOW IS IT GONNA CLEAN THE FUCKING DISHES

Nothing will make me pull a dishwasher aside more than this. I need clean more than I need fast,

I worked at a strip club kitchen (sure, I’ll say what it was, Highliter Club in PHX) and the guy that ran it had his own deal where he kept profits from the biz, the strip club didnt have much to do with it.
He was so cheap he didnt change the water for days to save on soap, and as an employee you BETTER NOT change out the water because he (as anyone could) would see. I ended up quitting because one day he accused me of stealing his spatula, dude was nuts.
But people still eat there, the strip club subsidized his meat prices 50%, so he offered cheap steak and lobster.
Still opersting as far as I know.

My mom made this for me as a kid. Kitchen sink soup.
It is obviously not for washing dishes.

Why have so many people in this thread not heard about soaking shit?

One of my old managers used to wash dishes like this. I said brother you can’t wash dishes in soup and his answer was everyone does things differently. He also stole tips.
