Is Mise,
because if the are outward opening you'd have to pull them to get in. :-) This is really tough, the Government should so something so that any user will not have to dirty their handkerchief so as not to get their hands dirty. On the other hand we could demand the Government provides handkerchiefs. Or the Government could provide ...... Posted by individual, Tuesday, 6 May 2014 6:02:57 AM

Indi,
Fair go, Is Mse did not say anything about the government providing anything. Shopping centres do have badly designed toilets and the way doors operate is just one issue. A better design is one that does not require doors and the user negotiates a short Maze at the entrance. It seems the developers get away with just the bare minimum to pass regulations and often locate toilets in the most out of way positions. Not long ago I was in a large Target store that was not in a shopping centre but had a street frontage. Staff informed me there was not toilets for customers and the closest was a KFC almost a block away. I will not go back to that shop. With all the doors and shopping trolleys and ATMs that one handles, it is not unreasonable to expect convenient hand washing facilities, before dining in the 'food court'. Little wonder that people pick up and pass on bugs so easily. Posted by Banjo, Tuesday, 6 May 2014 8:56:05 AM

Seems that on OLO we may have a few closet non-hand washers.

Or, if you are concerned about germs (which I'm not) you can for a few dollars buy some antiseptic wipes so you can wipe your hands once you get back to your car, or go on your way.
This way, for one persons very small outlay, we can direct our taxes to what most of us would consider to be far more important priorities. Posted by rehctub, Tuesday, 6 May 2014 10:12:48 AM

Banyo, shopping centre toilets are not actually public toilets, they are facilities provided to the shoppers and paid for by the tenants.

Butch,
Firstly, read the opening post again, he/she did not say anything about using taxpayers money! Secondly, it is a bit concerning that you, a former butcher, say you are not concerned about germs. For a food handler, you should be very concerned about hygiene. I would expect that you have spent a lot of time insisting that your staff washed hands often and that you expected the shops to be sparkling cleaned at the end of the day. Or was that only to satisfy the heath regulators? I hope it was not 'out of sight, out of mind'. There are too many dirty food places. Bit surprized that you think hygiene is unimportant.

Butch,
The toilets at shopping centres are the most used public toilets these days, as are the ones at service stations. They are built for use by the public. i.e. customers. The centre management pays for cleaning, etc. which is part of shop rental fees. The better the toilet facilities, the more customers that centre will attract. The point Is Mse was making is that many toilets are poorly designed and could be improved for better hygiene. I am an old bushy and not overly fastidious, but I do know people do carry and distribute bacteria like e coli. The more people, the more germs are spread. Posted by Banjo, Tuesday, 6 May 2014 11:01:18 AM

The more people you have the more deceases will surface. Hygiene is important that goes without saying but there are those who live super hygienic & they're the ones that get sick easily & cost the rest of us a lot. travellers are the main culprits. Travellers decease carrying tax anyone ?
There's no real answer to that particular problem. Accept that & do your best to keep away from public toilets. I mean we all know what types frequent them most. Posted by individual, Tuesday, 6 May 2014 7:05:09 PM

Banyo, whenni say I domt get bothered by germs, what I mean is Im one who be Ives that it better to be exposed as it increases your amune system.
As for hiegene in my buts her shops, I was always annal about cleaning and sanitizing. Even today I always wash my hands before touching food stuffs. I do think some people go overboard and, they can be quite over reacting. One example being when I upset a guy who said to me one day, "I purchased a ham and salad roll from the servo today, and the lady who made it didnt even wash her hands first". Of cause I said, that was terrible, so tell me, did you wash your hands before you ate it, he said no, then I said, do you think that lady might have pumped fuel, touching the hadle that hundreds a day touch, before she made your roll. He said, you're just a smart arse. Finally, most shopping centre toilets are very clean, and they are usually cleaned on a very regular basis. They also are less likely to have peop,e with dirty hands entering them. So as I say, if you are concerned, the best solution is to take your own bacterial wipes.

I have seen on a number of occasions workers (men) in Shopping Center use the toilets, leave without washing there hands (in male public toilets about 50% don't wash their hands). These workers have often been seen back at the job preparing and selling food, serving etc.
Small business are literally killing their customers through dirty practices, this is very common. Butch I'm not having a go at you, I did once report a local butcher which I observed smoking while he chopped meat on the block very early one morning. This name and shame file makes for interesting reading. http://www.foodauthority.nsw.gov.au/penalty-notices/ Posted by Paul1405, Tuesday, 6 May 2014 9:01:31 PM

Butch,
As it happens, here is a link that would be a flight crews worst nightmare. 60 kids all sick on a plane at once, on a 5 hour flight. Looks like something the kids ate before boarding, could well be from a hygiene matter or poor food handling. http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/sixty-children-taken-sick-during-flight-from-hell/story-fniztvnh-1226907218620 I have gone to the 'mens' and washed my hands before eating in a shopping centre food court and I too have wondered what is the point when I have to pull a door open to exit, using a handle that a hundred before me have also used to open the door. I would probably be better to wipe my hands on the seat of my pants. Is Mise has made a point about design and it is a valid point. Is it too difficult to put a door on that swings both ways, or do away with the need for a door. Taps that turn on/off with elbow. I see medicos are now saying that the best way to combat resistant bugs in hospitals is to insist on frequent hand washing by staff. As I said before, there are dozens of things we touch that most likely carry bugs. If we educate about hand washing there is not much point if one has to pull on a dirty door handle afterward. Be nice if you could acknowledge this little fact. Small thing , but important. Posted by Banjo, Tuesday, 6 May 2014 11:47:31 PM

Paul I know what you mean, Worst part is, most of those you see handle ready to eat food, unlike raw meat.
In my 23 years of owning shops I never allowed smoking in my shops, although it was very common with in the industry. Still is, albeit to a lesser degree. Once the unfair dismissal laws took hold, poor hygiene was not a sackable offense. Although I did sack a guy once for spitting in my shop and nothing came of it. When smoking became socially unacceptable, my staff who smoked, (the majority) had two rules, one, they had to remove thier company uniform to smoke, and two, if I could smell smoke on them when they returned they were not allowed to start work as the customer could smell it as well. Lost a few staff over it, I was probably breaking the UFD laws as well. As for the name and shame, as usual, authorities and the media ignore those who do the right thing. I said many times, even wrote to the likes of ACA and said, while I accept you can't name the bad traders, the least you could do is name the ones you tested that were doing the right thing. I have always thought that naming this who do the right thing was just as important than the opp. In fact, don't restaurants now have a start rating, based on over all hygiene. Banyo, I do acknowledge the fact, however I would also point out that modern day shopping centers usually don't have entry/exit doors on their rest rooms. Perhaps this must have been made law, because no shopping centre will forgo one square inch of retail space they are not forced to by legislation. As for modern day kids, when I was a little kid, in the 60's, there were no such thing as being allergic to peanuts, yet peanut butter is now banned from schools. Too many kids today are raised in sterile environments and that's half the battle. The other half is globalization, which has made the world too small.

Small business are literally killing their customers through dirty practices, this is very common.
Paul1405, So, isn't that yet another matter of mentality ? And yes I do agree that hygiene in food outlets is on par with public toilets which is also a matter of mentality. Literally everything we do is a matter of mentality. This is what we need to focus on. The other day I saw some clips from a moron amusement session err, football & I was amazed at the spitting that was shown. What a filthy sport yet it is promoted to no end. From filthy minds to fithy activities to filthy practices, it's all a matter of mentality. Is Mise yes I agree with you that design can always be improved but how can we expect people to design toilet door handles with the mentality that is the bench mark for so much other idiotic doing ?

Indi/Butch
Butch your attitude towards staff smoking is highly commendable, and more employers should take that kind of stance. Things that are easy yet seemed to be ignored are the simple use of gloves, cross contamination, where dirty knives, boards etc are used without regular washing. The over display of prepared hot food, what happened to the 2 hour rule, display if for 2 hours and then remove it. I'll give it to W&C, they do display cooked chooks only 2 hours, with the time on them, but both my local W&C are bad in the deli dept with dirty meat slicers, and sliced cold meat, I wont buy it, sometimes looks like its been there all day. Funny story, I always have a funny story. talk about dirty. Once in Fiji met a local (Fijian Indian) very nice bloke Raj, we were going out that nigh for dinner, I must add Raj house was very clean. Raj insisted we go to dinner at his brothers curry restaurant in Nadi, his shout, told me the fish is superb! can't wait. Well, Raj brothers joint was full, but was it dirty, we are caught between a rock and a hard place, can't insult Raj by not eating, but then again we don't want to die either. Naturally, Raj asked what did we think, my partner who is a bit forthright said "The restaurant is PATU! (Patu the Maori word for DIRTY) Raj not understanding Maori, "patu, what is patu" Quick as a flash I chimed in with "well Raj there's not an English word for patu, but wonderful, beautiful will be close enough." Over comes Raj bother, Ray exclaims loudly for all to hear "My friends love your restaurant, it is PATU!" Fortunately even though the place was crowded, not one (I hope) understood Maori, and the word patu, Raj brother went away smiling broadly. We went away wondering if we would live to the next day. In all my time in the Pacific Islands I've never been sick, a palm frond really don't keep the fly's off the chicken! Posted by Paul1405, Wednesday, 7 May 2014 9:56:27 AM

Dear Is Mise,
Talking about public toilets ... On Monday, I had my review colonoscopy and I can assure everyone that toilet door-knobs was the last thing on my mind. I was simply grateful for whatever public toilets were available. And yes, I did (and always do) wash my hands afterwards! Posted by Foxy, Wednesday, 7 May 2014 12:59:41 PM

Butch,
Glad to see that maybe shopping centre builders are starting to incorporate better designs. I am well aware that the developers of these centre want to maximise the space they can rent out to retailers. However they need some education to provide facilities that attract customers. Funny thing, they spend heaps on entertainment for kids, but only spend the bare minimum on toilet facilities. They also seem to make parking space so small you need a motor bike. Things I look for in a shopping centre are:- Ease of vehicle entry/exit and reasonable parking spaces. Good toilet facilities that are clean. Trollies that go it the direction that I determine. Some centres provide shade over the parking area which is an attraction. Noisy food court areas are a turn off, some sound muffling is required. We prefer a separate cafe or take food to a park. These things should be seen as a benefit to attract people rather than a cost to the developer. No doubt they pay architects big fees for design and planning, it can be improved Posted by Banjo, Wednesday, 7 May 2014 1:47:51 PM

Foxy,
I would never doubt for a moment that you wouldn't wash your hands, but you have to grasp the handle of the exit door to get out AFTER the hand wash. Let us assume that we are about to sup at one of the town's more salubrious eateries, McDonald's. Before commencing to consume the magnificent repast one may need to visit the toilet and all unsuspecting one grasps the possibly fecal matter contaminated door handle on the way out; as the majority of the food will be conveyed to the mouth by hand, one might wonder just what else is consumed. Bon appertit mes amis! Posted by Is Mise, Wednesday, 7 May 2014 4:48:39 PM

Is Mise, I think you're bordering on be paranoid and perhaps you should think twice about leaving the safety of your home.
Now let's see, we can expect councils, servos, restaurants, shopping centre developers, even Macas to retrofit their wash rooms, or, you can take along a small pack of anti wipes. Now which one makes more sense to you? Posted by rehctub, Wednesday, 7 May 2014 7:31:51 PM

Dear Is Mise,
Public toilets at Maccas, in shopping malls, doctor's offices, hospital complexes, today do not have door handles. They all have swinging doors that you can push with your shoulders or whatever else you choose. I think your concerns are a bit over the top - but as rehctub suggests feel free to carry a box of wipes with you and use them freely. It should take care of any problem. Posted by Foxy, Thursday, 8 May 2014 11:01:18 AM

Thanks Foxy, such an easy solution.

Dear rehctub,
I don't want to divert this thread so I'll make it brief. Can you tell me what the best kind of meat would be for me to use in a recipe for beef stroganoff? I want a cut of beef that will be great when cut up into thin slices. I usually go for beef scotch - but I was told that rump steak would do just as well. Which, in your opinion is better? It's for a dinner party and I want the best - melt in your mouth kind of meat. My apologies to you Is Mise. But I didn't know where else to ask rehctub - and I would appreciate his expertise. Thanks.

Foxy,
Don't mind at all, it's a dish that I like. Haven't been to Sydney lately so don't know what the toilet trends are in the big smoke. However in Armidale, NSW, McDcnald's has an inward opening door, ditto Grafton, Casino, Coff's Harbour and Warwick, Qld. The local doctors' recently built building has an inward opening door on the unisex toilet. I would say that such doors are the norm, visit the Law Courts' 24 storey building in Macquarrie St and you'll find that all of the toilets have the offending doors. The reason there is simple, the toilet air-conditioning is by pressure and outward opening doors would not stay shut. Health is very much a secondary consideration. As for me or anyone else carrying wipes; if the owners of the buildings fulfilled their duty of care then the matter would not arise. Hungry Jack's in Warwick has the washing facilities outside the toilets' exit doors. Simple. Posted by Is Mise, Thursday, 8 May 2014 5:53:54 PM
| |
Is Miis, you will find that most modern shopping centre rest rooms are now doorless. Perhaps theynhave listens to people like you before, but I do think expecting them to refit their existing stores/facilities is a bit rich.
As for doors opening out, it has a lot to do with being able to gain access should a person inside the cubicle have a heart attack or collapse. You will find all modern house toilet doors also open out, in fact, some both ways, for this ver reason. Posted by rehctub, Friday, 9 May 2014 5:29:18 PM
| |
Most cubicle doors still open inwards but it is the exit door from the facilities that need to open outwards.
Altering the direction of opening merely requires turning the hinges and moving the timber against which the door stops to the reverse position. As there are but two doors usually involved I don't think that a job that should cost no more than $400 (and that's being generous)should be beyond the finances of most businesses/organizations that provide toilet facilities. I had occasion today to visit Tenterfield Hospital, their Public Toilet is so small that there is only one cubicle (inward door) and the washing area is so small that one must stand with one foot against the inward opening exit door to avoid being struck in the butt by someone who wishes to enter. There are however a lot of hand washing instructions! Posted by Is Mise, Friday, 9 May 2014 8:46:55 PM
| |
Is Mis, $400 you say. You can't even get a traddie out of bed for that. Besides, most shopping degree these days require an induction before you start work and a minimum of $20 million public liability insurance.
I doubt you could get that job done these days for less than a grand. So I would suggest that a problem like yours is not even on their radar so as to speak. Posted by rehctub, Friday, 9 May 2014 9:47:35 PM

They already carry the insurance and I'll turn most doors for $100 a door and even drop to $50 for independent service stations; it's a half hour job if the screws aren't rusted.

Butch,
Why won't you inform Foxy the best cut to use for beef Strog? Probably too late now anyway, hope her dinner party went well. I would have chosen the Scotch Fillet, as it is always tender. Rump usually has more taste but is more chewy, which foxy wanted to avoid. The recipe has enough other ingredients for taste. I like small dinner parties, so I trust Foxy enjoyed hers. I'm going to leave you blokes to it, about the doors, you are both bloody obstinate Posted by Banjo, Friday, 9 May 2014 11:57:17 PM

Dear Is Mise and Banjo,
Thanks for your kind words. I'm still recovering from an awful bout of food poisoning. Jeepers creepers - it was worse than my colonoscopy on Monday. To make a long story short - hubbie and I went shopping for Mother's Day presents on Thursday evening - and we ended up having dinner at a local pub where "Beef and Reef," was on special. I ordered that dish (hubbie had something else). It was a large steak with three prawns on top and a sauce on top of that, plus chips, and a garden salad, with another sauce on top of that. When we got home I felt a bit nauseaous - but everything was allright - then on Friday more nausea - and around Midday - severe diarrea developed followed by severe vomiting. Luckily I had taken the day off - because I wasn't feeling well. I spent most of the day in the toilet. This went on all day and night - and Saturday I was still being flushed - although the vomiting had stopped. I ended up ringing the pub to let them know - and apparently I wasn't the only one who had been ill. It seems that their Chef had left earlier - and they had some inexperienced youngsters doing the cooking. At least that's the excuse I was given. I rather think that I was given some old food - that's why it was on "special." Needless to say - I had to cancel my dinner Party. Even today, I've still got a few stomach cramps. We were going to go out to eat for lunch on Mother's Day - instead I offered them scones and tea. We won't be going back to that pub anytime soon. Posted by Foxy, Sunday, 11 May 2014 11:43:52 AM

Dear Foxy,
You certainly had a time of it, glad that you're better. On Pubs: Sydney Uni did a study some years ago on bowls of "Beer Nuts" that some establishments used to provide gratis for all and sundry, as the night and the drinking progressed so did the level of contamination of the nuts, by human urine. It could be said that the nuts were as pissed as some of the patrons. Posted by Is Mise, Sunday, 11 May 2014 4:04:52 PM

Arrrr yes...the human immune system..) thanks to the clean people keeping their children from the environment, the disinfected junkies cant see for the life of them how important it is, in keeping a close association with nature.....( ever seen a sick greenie:).....up to their necks in it...that's why where very hard to kill:)....so thy rich and ignorant one's, keep up the good work...the more you drop off and pass over to the after life (what ever that means), the more room we have climb the ladder of success:)......Now! I wonder who's costing the health system...Makes one think doesn't it:)
Another good example...is the homeless people that share their humble bodies in the name of science....to the street life they live....again! bullet proof IMMUNE SYSTEMS...and god said..(if your into that sort of thing)...the meek shall inherit the earth....and the bible said...once again(rollie eyes)...ashes to ashes dust to dust..sorry to disappoint anyone, but that's where the train stops:) Good luck Kat Posted by ORIGINS OF MAN, Monday, 12 May 2014 11:03:16 AM

You need to know that the UN's soap and water hand washing campaign in the Third World has saved countless lives - from dysentery for instance. See here, http://edition.cnn.com/2011/11/15/health/cnnheroes-soap-hygiene/ You cannot become immune through unhygenic practices as you seem to think. Many Australians have no idea either. As can be seen where mothers change their infants and go on to handle food without washing their hands. Similarly it is common to see people doing their laundry and then going off to handle the family's food preparation. Any idea how much faecal matter there is in 'clean' laundry? It is the sun's UV that eventually knocks out much of it. Both public and private providers of toilet facilities have a duty of care to the public who use the facilities.

Beach-cho
I don't want to give a detailed description of our humble beginning's....however, cells( as you know )...have been at war since time began....The whole universe is create and destroy and just to go off topic for just a sec, the reason everything's a circle with my theory, ( which still leaves a question), we have been having this conversation for all eternity, until the circle has been completed, which we don't know, since we are still the loop...which I think. So if its a loop, time travel back and forward is real.....if its not, then we are heading to another galaxy, which all the suns have died and all black holes have joined up, which makes a super black hole, hence why we are picking up speed.....sorry, sometimes I think too much:)..... http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=1113#19789 Anyway....Good luck.

.....if its not, then we are heading to another galaxy.....sorry. Universe...I meant:).....See, this is not the place for thinking, this is a place for opinions of our thinking's, and In our understandings of that we can do with the best of our evolution.....the cell is still the master...

OUG..To stop at the word GOD..is the easy way out of staying/living inside the box. All believers minds stop at the one conclusion, simply because it needs no more investigation. In my mind, I see trillions of universes spread as far one can see with this primitive brain of our,s and more again after that...If we use a ladder to represent your mind/thinking, your still on the first step, while non-believers are still climbing....so effectively you have refused to move any further cause your conclusions stop at some tribal group in the middle-east that were no sharper than a golf ball.....and just to rub a little salt into the wound, the USA and other allies have been bombing it....shouldn't that be holy ground?.....so if GOD was there, he would of destroy the lot of you on the spot.
Question2 So the evidences is pointing somewhere else..hence the link I provided for you. Question 3 Why has he not returned to fix the mess that mankind has made.....and I will answer that for you....the maker as you call it, is on it's way or has never been very far away......OUG there's a lot more going on than just a belief, and the non-believer/I don't know crew...either waiting on the GOD theory to return or us to be civilized enough to be worth visiting...and having a look around the planet...any being watching us....is more likely they'll throw another asteroid and re-terror-form the planet.......then we'll start back at the beginning with religion again.....? Now everyone's religious and I explained how that came about.....So the score is still...EVOluation 1....and REligion 0 Your going to have to up with something better:) KAT Posted by ORIGINS OF MAN, Tuesday, 13 May 2014 1:26:48 PM

OUG...The fossil record only gives us fragments of in-complete picture, that doesn't mean the events of evolution didn't take place.
The study of the fruit fly experiment doesn't count, simply because, when one has reached it's required form, its adaptations to its environment which takes millions or less in some cases.....just take the common virus for instances, hence why some drugs we manufacture fail to work or become less effective....nature always finds a way...so I would agree there's a force we/me/you/all are trying to figure out for thousands of years and man can write all the books he wants....belief with a closed mind can be very dangerous but belief with open mind avoids being stuck in a never ending circle. OUG you have a great mind and by all means keep your faith close to you, My belief is the earth/heavens/stars/galaxies/universes...not who made it....its all here to explore and enjoy, so put your circle in your top pocket and live like GOD intended you to do... remember...you can always catch up with him later. Personally, I was never indoctrinated into any religion, so my mind was left free to explore itself and the world around me, so I have no circle Iam forced or locked into....so as a bird flies I fly with it and feel the power of nature and time that's in all of us of those who are free. A free mind is something words....do it no justice. All the best. Ka Posted by ORIGINS OF MAN, Tuesday, 13 May 2014 4:48:45 PM

Not so much poor hygiene, but not such good hygiene is sometimes an important health tool as it helps the human body's ability to fightoff infection. Evidence being in that whikemon we go to places like Bali and get what's commonly known as 'Bali belly' the locals don't suffer from this as their amune systems have developed to cope with the lowering of hygiene.
There is little doubt that the sterile environment many parents provide for their kids is the cause of so many allergies they suffer from. It's either that, or globalization, or perhaps a combination of both. But either way, when I was a tot, in the 60's, eating dirt was not uncommon and, if one kid got the mumps, all the mums would take their kids there so they too would get them. It was strengthening their amune systems. These days, if a kid gets a common infection, like the mumps, they are alienated. Paul, I note you have not responded to my simple question of would growing more organic food (commercially) add to the theory of climate change. Perhaps I have backed you into a corner.

Not everyone is as fastidious as us and the door handle that one has to grasp to get out of most Public Toilets may well be contaminated by unwashed hands.
Why are the doors on such places nearly always inwards opening so that one must pull them to get out?
