Do you think it is nasty to remove gum under tables at a restaurant while people are eating?

Question

Dont you think that should be done after they closed or before they open. I got fired because i didnt want to scrape gum off from under the tables while people were eating because i thought that was gross to do while people are eating and to see. I thought that was unfair terimination especially being there for 4 years and never had a problem and to get fired one day just for that. Do you think that was fair?

Answer 1

Why on earth would they ask you to scrape it off while people are eating?  That is maintenance and should be done routinely after they close for the night.  What is even more gross is for anyone to put it there in the first place.

Answer 2

No, I do not think that was fair.  Although depending on how you refused, they could certainly fire you for insubordination.  But I do agree, not scraping it off at that time was in the best interest of the patrons.

Answer 3

that is totally unfair that is so STUPID!!!!!!!!!!
