Fries, ketchup, mustard...food gets on you even using the best of care. The other option would be to clean up the dining room, but you need to use cleaning fluids out there as well. And you can't tell me she wouldn't want to wash her hands after picking up other people's garbage? The fact of the matter is that everyone has to wash their hands in a restaurant and everyone wears different hats when working there. I can't think of a reasonable accomadation.

I guess she could have gone to work for corporate McDonald's, but are they local to her?
Exactly. I worked in a restuarant too, if you don't want to wash your hands every so often then something is wrong with you because any time there is food it will get on you if you are around it/handling it.
