Hospital food
Nov. 2nd, 2018 01:35 pmI firmly believe that at any institution that serves meals, all personnel should be required to eat that institution's food, for a full work day, at least once a month.
Under the same conditions that all the "regular" people get it. If you're working in the kitchen, you don't get your institutional meal fresh from the kitchen. You get it after it's been sitting in the delivery units in the hallways (or whatever), immediately after the meals have been served to all of the "regular" people. So you get the full experience.
Context: My father just left the hospital, earlier than the doctors and therapists thought was advisable. Part of that was the terrible, terrible food, that even the doctor thought was terrible and was entirely forthright about not wanting to offer excuses for.
