Hygiene in the Food Service Industry

I once visited one of my favorite fast food restaurants to order shawarma with French fries. I was disappointed when the server who prepared my order handled my receipt while still wearing gloves. Later that day I also saw that same server in the parking lot wearing her entire uniform, hairnet and all.
