That still ends up being a ton on napkins wasted and therefore, money wasted. It's not a lot for one day. But it starts to add up. Not to mention, the price of napkins might go up, as well... Even at Chipotle, they removed the napkin area from where customers to get to it. Not to mention, more of a dropping hazard, I would think. They can only do so much. You can say what you would do as a manager, but you also don't know what the manager's bosses are telling them to do. In the end, they probably hope the customer has some way to protect themselves...

I mean, I get just doing your job, but yeah as far as napkins they give a ton in those bags, just give 1 less in the bag, and use one to actually protect the customer, no extra napkins used, in fact, ASK if they even want napkins (not everyone does) and then give them 1 less then normal if they want it, you'd save alot of napkins lol.

My general point though isn't about napkins, it's about actually considering the customers safety. Expecting them to be driving around wearing gloves is a bit much.

Part of it may be my area as well, perhaps in places hit by the virus harder, they are being more careful. There are many ways (not just napkins) to ensure that no cross contamination occurs. You could use tongs etc, you could have one person put the order together and another person actually hand it out (in a basket so they never touch it) etc.

You just actively need to try to prevent it, which people around here are not doing. It does not seem to be a priority, even though just about every fast food place under the sun has sent emails saying how they are being careful and taking precautions etc.
