I can't remember who but we have a poster here who has a boss who has a life size trump cut out in their conference room so yeah That would be the President/CEO of the company I work for.
I thought it was but didn't want to name you if it wasn't It was just my point that people have to make money to feed their family

You can get salmonella from the pool. I don't think having a strong gut has much to do with it. The cramping/bloody poo cycle some people get with salmonella is ...terrible. I would rather go to work I have never actually heard of people getting salmonella from the pool. Other bugs, yes. But not salmonella. I'm not saying I think you're lying, I just hadn't heard of it.

I'll take dog ass over cat ass. At least my dog won't kill me in my sleep My cat stopped putting his ass near my pillow after I screamed and almost punched him in the MOTN after I had fallen asleep reading the book about the golden state killer and he jumped on me.

I am more scared of unwashed or contaminated greens than getting sick from other people's cooking.
I am also scared of the GI bugs that go around cruise ships at an alarming rate.
eta and hospital-acquired infections, especially multi-drug resistant superbugs.
I'm scared of gi bugs tgat go around boy scout summer camp. Every year. It got worse after they put in the hand sanitizer dispensers at the entrance of the dining hall. Cause before that everyone had to go to the line of sinks outside and wash up before entering the cafeteria.

I can go on a cruise without fear. *flips hair* Are you immune to being murdered and thrown overboard during the night in the middle of the Pacific ocean where no one will hear your frantic screams too?

I have a gut of steel compared to most people here. I don't get ass piss from Taco Bell. But I did get mild food poisoning one time. Our work had catering from a popular Mexican place here on a Friday, and I got sick Friday night. So did many of my coworkers. It wasn't as bad as death, but I was up all night because of it. I was well enough for work the next day.

I'm always surprised by the frequency that people claim food poisoning on the internet. I'm also always taken aback at how far people go to avoid eating what others cook so maybe I have some sort of gastrointestinal privilege blindspot. I think some of it is people over indulging and not wanting to admit it. too much greasy food gets me. So it's not the Mexican food restaurants cleanliness, it's the hard crunchy tacos and lots of fried chips and guacamole.

I try to balance my inner voice screaming that we’ll get sick with letting my family live their lives. My kid loves potlucks. It’s kind of an occupational hazard. But they make me cringe.

::plugs ears about getting sick from swimming:: LALALALALALA I CAN’T HEAR YOU. The chances of getting salmonella from a pool are slim to none, I think. But Monsters Inside Me scared me away from ever swimming in a small lake. Fuck amoebas.

I'm starting to think I have a stronger stomach than I thought. I eat at potlucks all the time, at all sorts of restaurants, and even occasionally from buffets. I've never gotten food poisoning. Yeah Knocks on wood, no food poisoning here. I eat anything not nailed down.

ttcbabyj, I kind of don't believe your story. Either half of it-- that someone would put the effort in to address, stamp and mail a blank thank you card and also that you sent it back. I am sure you don't care that I don't believe you, but I just needed to say it. Hours late, so hope I’m not dropping this in a weird spot, but my cousin actually did this with her bridal shower thank you cards. The outside of the card was the typical floral picture and preprinted thank you and then on the inside of the card, she just signed her name. Nothing else inside, not even a preprinted message. So I burned the bitch’s house down. It might seem extreme, but I take thank you card etiquette seriously.

Obviously this was JMO Just seems like so much effort to address an envelope, get stamps, put in mailbox. You would think one would say to themselves, I might as well just write 4 extra words "thanks for the gift"!

I'm starting to think I have a stronger stomach than I thought. I eat at potlucks all the time, at all sorts of restaurants, and even occasionally from buffets. I've never gotten food poisoning. +1 except I have had something like food poisoning once from some bad fish. My husband and I were both sick as dogs for about 24 hours and had queasy stomachs for another day. Never have I ever been so grateful for a kid who refused to eat fish as I was that day. I can't imagine being that ill and taking care of a sick toddler, too. Also, never I have ever been that grateful for multiple bathrooms. ETA: And even with multiple bathrooms, I still made a mess in my pants during that time. It was bad. <iframe width="27.25999999999999" height="2.9200000000000017" style="position: absolute; width: 27.25999999999999px; height: 2.9200000000000017px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none;left: 15px; top: -5px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_90280140" scrolling="no"></iframe>

But we had some outbreak when the public pool wasn't properly chlorinated. And we had several kids end up hospitalized with bloody stool and dehydration. I thought it was salmonella but it could have been something else. It was gross though.

Poissibly crypto, though chlorine levels wouldn't matter because it doesn't care about chlorine. It lives it's life anyway. Also possible- e. coli, Giardia, noro, and a few others. They all pretty much cause the same reaction.
