We put automobile door edge molding on our sharp edges.
The worst cut I ever got in a 15 year career was from a box freezer servers used to sit on. It cracked the handle and during a wild rush I ripped my thumb wide open.
Take some steel wool to it to dull that edge
We got a couple of those huge fing mixing bowls…man the rim of that thing is crazy sharp.
I havent cut myself on a knife in years, but yeah, it’s always dumb little corners that tear me open.

Now do one with the bitch ass cling film cutter
I can feel this gif and I don’t like it.
I had a sous chef basically flay his index finger cleaning the grates on a cooler.
I felt bad, but he should have known better. Unbrushed metal will fuck your day up.
Stupidest one for me was on a bus tub that got my finger
I used to design stainless kitchen furniture, we’d get shit on for forgetting a safety bend and leaving sharp edges. Sorry to say someone cut corners in budgeting your furniture.
Worst cut I ever got in the kitchen was from when of these sandwich top coolers that had slide out drawers underneath. I dropped a divider bar in there reached in for it, and just brushed against the track. Pulled my hand out and could see my finger bone. I’m still looking at the scar 20 years later.
Reminds me being the joint health and safety for workers.
Coworker sliced her finger really bad on an edge like this under the table while stocking. I file the accident report and then file a hazard report making sure to include its already cut someone and made them bleed profusely.
GM, Maintance manager, The Client and the executive chef all come to discuss later that day.
Maintance guys says there’s no edge there so not sure what you want me to do about it. I respond ok but (coworker) already cutherself.
Maintance guy: yea but there’s nothing there
Me: she’s going to get stitches….(looking at jne of my managers to say anything here because I’m losing it)
Chef: maby will just put some tape.
Maintance: tape works
Urgh inside the fridges too when you remove the shelves
I shivered at this, fuck you
Mate it’s the same in the plumbing world. All the tools you use and daft stuff you do to get a job finished. Then you go and slice yourself open on the unfinished edge of a steel boiler frame, when you least expect it
I have cut myself with the inside edge of the dishwasher multiple times.
same with plastics, a big part of my job is packaging and people are surprised when i say the plastic clam shells cut me way more than I ever have with a knife
Messed up.
Cabinet freezer door sticks, one arm on top to hold the frame, but door unsticks and top corner of the door is the slicer on the frame holding arm.
Managers never restocked the wound care kit, used the last gauze and tape.
Whenever I replace hotel pans, I also buy bandaids.
Yo what song are you listening to?
Everything in the kitchen is trying to kill you.

Tell your cheapskate boss to stop buying shitty Webstaurant equipment that gets delivered on a busted pallet with a note instructing you to go die in a fire.
Yeah someone at my work just sliced down to there tendon in their hand while cleaning
I cut my fingers on the concealed blades inside greaseproof paper boxes way more than I do with knives.
I once cut my finger on the tray of a cash register
This looks like a problem for a serrated knife and a pool noodle.
It’s true! I’ve been guilty of slicing myself open on the side of a hotel pan. Ridiculous.
yup, rarely cut myself with a knife, but those edges man….
