+Today taking my bag of trash out I noticed my old kitchen manager, one of those
+partly to blame for my training, doing the same with the restaurant's trash. He
+asked me if I'd heard from my sidekick using a name that while attributable to
+her was not her herself - too formal and she would say in more words
+incongruous [is that a word?] to her being. This was my first red flag of the
+day but the person himself is a walking one his own, a Lady Gaga song glorifier
+and notorious gossip not to mention lacking in empathy or humbleness, afflicted
+even worse by the latter two than myself.
+
+I cannot think of him without thinking of my training in 2021 when I was
+seventeen and he in twenties and I pulled a trash can from one inaccessible
+location to a better one and I by himself was pulled aside and told unkindly
+not to meddle with any sort of kitchen organization whatsoever, because he was
+running the kitchen and his food making ship needed to be tight and
+disciplined. Perhaps this was true, but whatever discipline he taught was yet
+unaware of the basics of food safety as he gripped the trash bag liner to bring
+the can back and forth on wheels from under the preparation table where he kept
+it, contaminating the gloves with which he would make food with the retch
+byproducts from the junk we organized.
+
+The same supposed manager, at that time technically the same role as my own
+though given authority by that which did have it to give, that would tell me I
+was a fool for going from chicken to beef - both cooked - without changing my
+gloves and washing my hands, would go from raw meat to cooked comfortably with
+contaminated tongs sitting in the no doubt E. Coli plentiful meat well
+protecting food from bacteria, and do the same when tending to chicken between
+frozen bird and fried. This is extremely common in food preparation and I
+encourage any reader not to consume that which you did not produce or at least
+prepare. I've never seen the use of preventing food from touching food when
+both are flesh and both thoroughly dead and thoroughly cooked, nor have I ever
+seen the sense in crossing the dead and preserved with the dead whose food
+safety is preserved. Nor have I ever seen how his taking me out of line and
+chewing me out for moving a trash can was justified when I was trying to
+guarantee the food safety that was not my responsibility but his.
+
+TRINITY:	She's not doing well- I thought it was kind of obvious. You
+        	should talk to her yourself.
+[...]:  	You and she both have this thing where you're rude- whatever, I
+        	guess I'll just go fuck myself.
+TRINITY:	Enjoy fucking yourself then.
+
+And then I left on my scooter and heard him say something behind me. My
+assumption though not charitable is he made a remark either about my being
+transgender or being homeless, both things that while he may accept he is glad
+certainly to not experience. But I can't say for sure. And I could say while I
+may not have a ceiling or roof, at least I have my heart.
