Sneezing in public
10/25/2008 at 9:04 AM
So I was at a restaurant yesterday enjoying a buffet. We were thankfully almost finished our meal, when a young man came in, and proceeded to the buffet, which was right beside my table. To my surprise, and the surprise of most of the small busy restaurant, this "gentleman" proceeded to sneeze, over and over, and did not even attempt to cover his nose/mouth. This man was standing directly in front of the food. He then used his hand/arm to wipe his nose a couple of times right before he grabbed the spoon to scoop more food onto his plate. I couldn't believe it! And this man was a professional as well. It's no wonder there are so many nasty colds going around when people can't even be bothered to cover their mouth, or better yet, step away from the food when they are having a sneeze attack!
