i wasnt yelling at you i wrote out exactly what happened twice now and it took a long time because i was detailed. sorry if you got that impression....im in the middle of finals...very stressed out in fact i have one today. look at the time...gotta run. and ill fill everyone in when i get a chance. sigh. sorry....
-
College may be poisoning us....please help
-
Sounds like you're doing a good job. Keep up the good work.
-
How was this situation finally resolved?
-
well i heard word that they werent coming back. but basically it wasnt resolved. the health department never got back to me. my COLLEGE never got back to me and they even had a meeting with the place. and the cafeteria...never really got better. it seemed to have for a few days the next week/week and a half but that was it. back to shit and luckily i am back home where i am not getting sick 10 or 20 mins after every meal and into the night. so ha! my parents want me to move back to the dorms i dont think i can simply because of this issue right here. i did voice to them that i am not a big fan of being sick. and im sure its doing a number on my kidneys and i have lupus...and it does effect my kidneys too. but they have been making obsurd descisions lately anyways. so yes this is my update sorry for the delay. finals were insane! wish me luck on my grades. and somehow through being extremely sick all year I managed to get even more scholarship money than last year...$16,000 to be exact...so no lawsuits for bon apetite...YET....
-
You needed to put up posters all over the place so people who've been poisoned by the cafeteria could contact you. They couldn't just not pay attention to 20 people.
-
true but i am hoping that they got fired instead. what sucks is that its a chain....so who knows what other people are dealing with all over the US?
-
A cafeteria chain? If you put up a big enough stink and get people to join in as opposed to just yourself complaining, things would happen.
-
What I don't understand is how the health department could overlook this. Couldn't you just have everyone sign the petition or whatnot, and show it to the health department so they know that it's not just one person?
-
well, yeah I could have. But...my school assured me they had it under control. I am home now from college and the matter is completely out of my hands. The cafeteria is closed for the summer...rumor has it they aren't coming back next year. But if they do I will just go to someone higher. I wont live at the dorms next semester because of it. Towards the end I missed a lot of class and I can't afford that with trying to maintain a certain grade point average for my scholarships. This whole situtation is very frusterating and I feel as though I didn't get my point across even though I talked to the head manager of the cafeteria, one of the other managers, before that called the health department and before that even talked to my school. What do I have to do next?! I raised enough hell and I let my voice be heard. I told the health department that we were preparing to go into finals and thats why people wouldn't be calling and why should they I talked to 20-ish people about it and they all recalled getting sick. Isn't that enough or do my kidneys have to fail from being so damned sick? I have SLE Lupus and it effects my kidneys. After I would get sick they would absolutely throb....I was losing sleep which means more pain and less focus in class. I certainly wasn't eating a balanced meal so in all the cafeteria did nothing but deteriorate my health and that of my peers. Whats worse is that everyone I talked to knows this and nothing was done!!! grrr...
-
I'm glad to hear that you're at least out of that whole mess. Hopefully they will get their stuff straightened out.
-
Your biggest mistake was even talking to anyone in the cafeteria. Chances are that they would do some cursory changes or even cover up their negligence, but the underlying problem was probably never remedied.
-
yeah actually the problem was taken care of-they were fired.
