[@jakc101]

[@joshusqua7561]

[@odawglive6334]

Real shit lol

[@crazy2-1ilz18]

I'm working in this too every 5 minutes my trainer keeps telling me you need to be quicker your left behind I'm trying to go fast but it's hard give me a break

[@laith17lalith56]

Amen to that brother. They literaly have me cleaning 6 times a day and every day it's a different part of the apartment that gets a nice steady cleaning session. If I dont finish they dont get mad they know the truth.

[@semisonic9912]

Man this brings back memories from the late 90s haha... Still remember the procedure at the supermarket which had a pretty large butchery dept. Gross removal of all stuff on floor and on the benches, take out x2 shopping trolleys of all the waste rubbish bags which were leaking blood, sauces, water and crap, dozens of cardboard boxes chucked into a cage and had to get up in it and stamp them down, then take to a compacter out in the storerooms at the rear of the building - usually 2 trips down there... do the dishes, clean all the tote bins (x40), hot water over all the cutting boards to release fats, foam them, let sit, scrub and hose off, then another few buckets of hot water over them, then onto foaming the floors and walls, mince machine, bandsaw, clean out the drains (another trip with a bag full of leaking crap) then onto the meat packing end and cleaning all the tables, hot water in about 7 buckets tipped all over the floor then another few with sanitizer, squeegee the floors and finally done 5.5 hours later. Wasn't any high pressure hoses or decent foam guns back then so was a bit slower than the average time these days.

Takes me about an hour. Everyone tears down the meat room different, whatever works for the person.

[@3681pokey]

Ahhh..The luxury of a soapy hose, in the olden days I used a bucket and scrub brush...

[@jerrycogollodo1867]

Hello lady I like job. Very nice job butcher.Same my job butcher.. amazing job Lady...

[@shadowferas]

Takes me just over an hour (uninterrupted)

[@stevenmilsteen]

Lol love the (uninterrupted) part there never a real moment when I’m uninterrupted where I work

[@DF13939]

Cutters have a great time when the short loins go on sale lol!

[@againstalltyrants9001]

Fastest way I've found is spray everything off as soon as possible and let it sit, then go spray it again a while later, It'll come fairly clean, then go detail everything thats not, put soap down, scrub and rinse. takes about 45 minutes, an hour if anything comes up.

[@Ohe11itsODell]

after watching this the market i work in would be closed down haha

[@patrickcc112]

It takes me about an hour and a half uninterrupted to clean our meat department. I take apart each individual saw part and let it soak for a while.

[@davidbarton9564]

Is it better to try to get all the meat pecies on the floor first , as from machines and tables or should I do it section by section. And the tenderizer machine pieces are extremely hard to clean 100%. I've been letting them soak in "detergent" for an hour or so but there is still stringy meat pieces and residue. they offerer some mineral oil stuff but even that seems rather useless.

[@semisonic9912]

Yes for sure! I did a large supermarket butchery and used to take me 5.5 hours all up...Get it all on the floor first then get it all bagged up or in a bin, and then all the rubbish bags and any cardboard boxes and def work in sections. I used to start at the sink when all the rubbish was removed and do all dishes and that sort of thing and all the tenderizer parts, then moved to the butchers tables, then to all the tote bins to clean, then to the trimmers tables and bandsaw then the mince machine and worked my way in one direction down the store....I used to use a list I wrote out and order of doing things and stuck to it and used to give myself times like ''7pm clean mince machine'' so Id always work to that and sometimes get ahead of myself which was good!....I used to high pressure hose those tenderizer pieces and even foam gun sprayed them and a soak in hot water and then scrub them.

[@Oldschool503]

You don't wear hair nets when making hamburger?

[@Boonweezy]

oh my god, at the place I work at we have to scrape everything with a knife and it's not even that clean afterwords. is it like this at every place to clean with a hose?

[@tylercarson5309]

Yea man in a proper setting you guys dont have a hose??? We have a 30 foot hose

[@semisonic9912]

Really? Usually these days its a high pressure hose, chemical foam, scrubbing brush, and sanitize

[@Boonweezy]

@@semisonic9912 oh man haha this was back when I worked at a chinese grocery store chain haha

[@TheStarrQueen]

ugh if only my store had such great drainage!

[@WillShackAttack]

Mine too.

[@justinhamby3593]

They give me 4 hours to clean and put away the casings and stock up on fresh meats. I get the cleaning done in a hour and a half depending on how many customers stop by. The rest is a piece of cake, well gotta go off to work.

[@kevindebroux213]

Same here. If I really hustle and take all the trash out and throw away all the bits and pieces of the extra meat clippings, I'll be able to finish with in 45 minutes but nooooope, Customers have to bug me

[@thegoat186]

Kevin deBroux should I do meat ? or backroom ? I finish an complete my Walmart application an several are hiring an only two of them said they was gonna call me next week . this is gonna be my first time working for Walmart , but i don't know what position i should do , an I really don't want customers bothering me . lol

[@kevindebroux213]

NARUTO UZUMAKI then don't apply to walmart

[@thegoat186]

Kevin deBroux yea My brother works for Walmart , an he's doing deli an told me in that position customers will constantly come UpTo you .

[@robertrichards6207]

This would be an all afternoon job with that garden hose.

[@KillerKerry]

It takes me about 45 minutes to clean a meat department if i'm not interupted and our grinder has a safety guard. the lid must be closed in order for it to operate. Those boards could also use a little block whitener too. Also I do the block whitener, Soap, Rinse, and Santize. I'll take out my trash and do the dishes. If its really bad i'll rinse first let it sit then add on the soap.

[@wambsganz8]

Always wondered how a meat saw was cleaned.

[@JMCporsche]

I know this routine all too well

[@KcKiller101]

The long way of cleaning. Turn the machine and it is just effective. Need a very high powered hose. But fully manually clean once a month.

[@joshusqua7561]

Who else loves leaving their shift soaked from the pressure washer?, any meat clerks here?

[@m.jenkins8503]

46 years expierence here, and it doesn't change

[@tylercarson5309]

Yesss man our pressure washer is broke so its all hose and hot water atm sucks i leave wet every night lol

[@semisonic9912]

Every night.....every night. I did this job 22 years ago and thats the part I remember the most...plus being cold.

[@cjbennett5363]

My meat department must be bigger than most it takes me 2 hours to clean all equipment and wash tables and floors and walls and that's just because I've been doing it for 2 years it used to take me 4 houra

[@semisonic9912]

Yeah I'd say this one is pretty small. One I worked in was huge supermarket one and took me 5.5 hours for tote bins, waste removal, cardboard box removal, tables, floors and walls. And was non stop work. Sometimes the butchers finished early on Fridays and started cleaning for me and shaved 1 hour off, which was good!

[@spliffwordmedicalz8423]

Must be nice to move at your own comfortable pace. Try working in meat department at Costco.

[@semisonic9912]

Or Pak'nSave supermarket butchery New Zealand lol. Literally HAD to be done by store closing time

[@Decap11sucks]

Dude these people over here leaving me with 2 hrs to clean and fill shit plus answer any customers questions I just started and have been tryna figure out a good way to balance all this within 2 hrs

[@user-uj6sc7ls9y]

I've been looking for a video showing me how the band is cleaned, but haven't been able to find one. How do you do it?

[@stevenmilsteen]

The band saw what model is it or brand name

[@stevenmilsteen]

Also are there any levers on the lower right hand side

[@semisonic9912]

I used to coil it up then take to the sink and soak in hot water for a while then in with detergent and scrubbed like doing the dishes then hosed it off after. Damn dangerous things and so easy to cut yourself when cleaning them.

[@LordLunaier]

God our hose at work makes theres look like a toy sprinkler! 120 degrees extreme-pressure water.

[@graysongrayson]

LordLunaier Not all about pressure. About getting it soaked and not wasting water like a loon.

[@semisonic9912]

I would've loved a high pressure hot water one back in the 90s lol...or even a cold high pressure one. Pretty much was a hose exactly like this vid. Took bloody ages.

[@carlogambino775]

It’s takes me 1 hour to clean the meat department and I take every part of the saw off 1 by 1 makes my Job very EZ

[@mikeynoelleon]

Hated when the sewers backup!

[@mikeynoelleon]

Been there bro....

[@neufeld2007]

soooo what's the point again? and why is she working in slow motion lol the saw blade should be soaked in a sink then sanitized to properly clean it

[@andrewjackson7171]

wow that was really surprising to see a girl doing such job make a guy do this lets not make women do this type of jobs. btw she did great, good job.

[@Quavoh]

Y’all are lucky y’all get a hose I have to do all of it with a fucking rag

[@JosephMBoyer]

odd to see an attractive lady in the meat room lol

[@cword2604]

Way am a butcher for 18 year's its fun learn about meats. Best thing is u know what u bring home because you cut. the meat yourself. Woman's rock. I use to do it just with a knife grow up on a farm, in Germany had to learn to use the saw. It's awesome

[@mikeynoelleon]

At acme they'll add shit to ur job!!!!! But once u find a routine it's kinda piece and quite until customers fucking bother u. But there is nothing like getting done 3 hours early. ...

[@johnlaz5707]

Me to man >.

[@dogzillasquad9524]

I have one video on my channel too. Is hard😒

[@joshusqua7561]

Lmao that grinder looks like a pos, and y’all have to hand wrap? FUCK THAT.
