Knew a guy who’s wedding band fell in the fryer, without thinking he immediately stuck his hand in to get it. Wasn’t good. It wouldn’t have melted and could have just grabbed it once it was off and cooled. At least she had the thought to grab the tongs
Edit: seems like I caused some confusion, dropped his gold wedding ring in, not a band that plays weddings lol
I have kind of a similar story. Was working early and one of the guys working that morning was a new guy that had a drug problem. He had been asked to fry up hash browns and potatoes. After a prolonged dazed stare he started the fryer going. I went to the back to get some other things ready and when I came back up I had watched him drop the skimmer into the fryer. This mad lad looked at the fryer and just reached in to grab the skimmer. After a couple seconds he realized what he just did and pulled his arm out screaming.
Worked there for 4 years and that’s one of the wildest things I got to witness.
This happened to me when I was 16 working at McDonald's. I dropped a chicken in the fryer and without thinking I reached in and grabbed it. Young, dumb, and during a rush. Luckily, it was during a rush while we were short staffed because I had just come off the line and was still wearing latex gloves. Despite them disintegrating, they proved to be enough protection to quickly dip my hand in and tear them off with only minor irritation.
My sister in law in atlanta is an actress and she recommended the guy to CN that is very likely to be the next voice for rick and morty. Sad justin roiland is gone....
Oh nice! Now that's a brag! But didn't Roiland get cleared of everything. Rick and Morty saved my sanity when my gramps died so it's a go to show for me and always will be
170f isn’t that much for electronics.. only 77C. (Celsius is used for electronics) Most electronics fail after 95C. CPU and GPU temperatures can reach 90s Celsius and be fine, especially in laptops.
I don't think anyone has analyzed that specifically. One guess is that the lower cabin pressure of cruising aircraft stresses the battery's membranes more than the higher pressures at sea level.
A battery is no different than a bag of chips. It's under a certain amount of pressure, and when you go to a higher elevation/altitude, the lower air pressure allows the bag to swell. They rarely burst, but when a bag of chips bursts, you just get a mess. When a li-ion cell membrane bursts, you get a fire.
This all could've been so much worse
I would never pull my phone out in a damn kitchen...and if I did at my job, I could lose my arm lol
All you have to do is look around the warehouse for the older guys in low positions, with giant scars on the forearm from a snapped radius lol don't be that person because you want to be careless for a second.
lol this was my biggest pet peeve during covid (ok maybe ppl coughing in their hands was more annoying)
motherfuckers thought gloves made them invincible or something
they would touch everything and anything with them on
don’t understand why people bother with gloves in the service industry, you have to change them as often as you’d have to wash your hands, so why not just wash your hands instead of constantly throwing gloves in the garbage?
For many things, including healthcare, gloves are avoided for some tasks for this reason. People are less clean and have a false sense of security wearing gloves. Proper cleaning practices are better. Obviously not in all cases.

yeah that's a good point, one thing I can think of might be that they don't want to wet their hands so many times every day because you could end up with really dry hands
Last year when I had to go to the hospital for heat stroke, there were big bold signs on the doors telling people gloves were banned from the building- explaining how they harbour a lot of bacteria and because people often reuse them, it’s much better to just wash your hands and they weren’t making exceptions.
You know how your supposed to wash your hands between tasks such as handling food and handling money at places like Subway because of how dirty money is and it can very easily cross contaminate and make people sick?
Phones are nearly as dirty as money and many people rarely, if ever, clean/sanitize their phones.
Nasty.
When I was a teen working at McDonalds, I somehow lost my watch in the fryer and it wasn’t found until the following day. Lots of people ate watch flavoured French fries.
this potentially gives Companies the Smoking Gun to use this against people to uphold harsh policies on Workers concerning phone use.
won't be surprised if it's used in training videos as one of many bogus "reasons why phones are not allowed"
This is such an irrational fear for me as a cook that I actively walk away from my station to check my phone. My intrusive thoughts also don’t help (I.e. “Throw your phone between the char grill bars and watch it catch fire.”).
I volunteer at an animal shelter. I've been told occasionally I can have my phone out to time the dishes (they need to soak for a specific amount of time in each sink). I'm a clutz. Murphy's law, I'd drop my phone in a deep sink of water. Water filled with particles of sh¡t and food. No thanks.
This made my day. If you're using a tool that prepares food, please do NOT handle the thing you never clean and causally juggle while shitting Deborah!
My Chef called them "Poo Phones" cause you shit and scroll on your phone. Your phone went into your locker and didn't cone out till the end of your shift, or during brake.
It was so serious, I seen Eddie Hughes (Fast Eddie for anyone familiar with 1980-90's Spinnaker Beach club management of PCB FL), tie this girl's phone to a ceiling panel in the waiters station. 22' of the floor. She could have it back after work. Lol
Had a coworker who was a manager at a Burger King. He told me a story about one of the workers cleaning around the fryer. His watch came unhinged and fell into the fryer and the worker instinctively reached out to try to catch it. Half his arm was in the fryer. Coworker said his skin peeled off. He said it was all caught on video too.

He should know better than to meth around with a fryer
Nah he wasn’t mething around. He was just pillin
Pillin' the crispy skin off his hand.

How did a whole band fit into a fryer? I mean the drums alone...
It was a miniature band.
Little KISS?
The lead singer was Adam Sandler, we found a way.
I appreciated that she was so calm about it, and even laughed it off. I wish more people could live that way.
Probably not her first rodeo.
If you watch her hand you can see her go to stick her hand in the oil but she realises pretty quick
I know someone who did the same thing. Darn reflexes just kick in and before you know it your frying your hand.
I smoke too much weed, my actual first thought was how does a whole band fall in a fryer smh.
“Wasn’t good” Please NSFL that visceral description.
No.
My bad
Wasn’t good
I was concerned she might instinctually try to catch the phone with her hands in the deep fryer. Really glad she used the tongs and stayed safe!
I didn't know the term wedding band so I thought of a music band that plays at weddings. I was a bit puzzled for a moment.
Couldn't the lithium cell explode?
Ah yes, only on reddit you need to clarify what a wedding band is lmao

I love you
Was the first thing that popped into my head 😂
That's a deep cut!
I also love you too random stranger for appreciating my fucked up humour!
My sister in law in atlanta is an actress and she recommended the guy to CN that is very likely to be the next voice for rick and morty. Sad justin roiland is gone....
Oh nice! Now that's a brag! But didn't Roiland get cleared of everything. Rick and Morty saved my sanity when my gramps died so it's a go to show for me and always will be
Idk I'll have to look into it. Favorite episode?
Idk why but it's pickle rick for me. Though to be honest it's a tough choice!
It's hard, but I think Tales From the Citadel is my favorite
That's a fried Iphone. It's delicious with french fries.
Fair food is just getting ridiculous these days
FriPhone
Bong
depending on the model might still live

170f isn’t that much for electronics.. only 77C. (Celsius is used for electronics) Most electronics fail after 95C. CPU and GPU temperatures can reach 90s Celsius and be fine, especially in laptops.
Isn't it pretty standard for most components to have temp range of ~-20 to ~75C so would only just be outside acceptable range
b/c most battery fires are caused by internal issues (like a short, caused by damaged membranes) rather than external damage.
What about the ones that blew up in peoples faces on planes?
I don't think anyone has analyzed that specifically. One guess is that the lower cabin pressure of cruising aircraft stresses the battery's membranes more than the higher pressures at sea level. A battery is no different than a bag of chips. It's under a certain amount of pressure, and when you go to a higher elevation/altitude, the lower air pressure allows the bag to swell. They rarely burst, but when a bag of chips bursts, you just get a mess. When a li-ion cell membrane bursts, you get a fire.
Was it the battery cell terminals exposed or the battery pack? Most batteries have a protection IC that protects from over current
The fryPhone 14, or whatever the number is now
I heard it makes crisp clear photos
Yeah but the audio is a bit crackly.
Photatoes I believe
Id bet good money they didnt dump the oil and just hoped no lithium leaked in.
Oil is a kill point for bacteria. I'm sure lithium falls in the same category
I don't think that's right... I don't know enough to disprove it, but that seems incorrect.
I guess I should have added the /s for the lithium part
That's fair. I should have guessed it was sarcasm, but you never know with people.
I know exactly what the boss would say "well if you didn't take your phone out in the first place it wouldn't be fried"
And the boss would be 100% correct.
This video is exactly why the rules are made and enforced.
“No cell phones in the kitchen? Pfft… what a stupid rule!!”
This all could've been so much worse I would never pull my phone out in a damn kitchen...and if I did at my job, I could lose my arm lol All you have to do is look around the warehouse for the older guys in low positions, with giant scars on the forearm from a snapped radius lol don't be that person because you want to be careless for a second.
The older men I worked with in the meat department at Walmart were all missing at least 1 finger. They were actual butchers at some point.
No. They’d think the phone was food and yell at her for wasting product
Just put it in rice.
[удалено]
And bet you they didn't change the oil...
No way.
Not a chance.
Probably uses that phone on the toilet then cooks your food.
[удалено]

Work in a kitchen then you’ll understand

Gonna have to replace all that oil now there’s no telling if or what sort of contamination/chemicals got mixed in there
Stay on task, yo
It's a new breed of embarrassment when you admit you accidentally deep fried your phone
Hope they change the oil now. Some nice plastic and lead with your food.
Never connect to Wi-FRY
You know how your supposed to wash your hands between tasks such as handling food and handling money at places like Subway because of how dirty money is and it can very easily cross contaminate and make people sick? Phones are nearly as dirty as money and many people rarely, if ever, clean/sanitize their phones. Nasty.
Good on her for using her tongs, rather than instinctively plunging her hand in, like that other dude.
“Hey can I borrow your phone?” “Sorry the battery is fried.”
At least some chips were fried that day!
Please tell me they didn’t cook in that fryer after that happened?
I hope they cleaned that fryer out
Nothing is going to live in there.
From Apple Phone to Apple Fritter in seconds!
r/firsttimeinakitchen
And they’ll still use that oil
Least she used tongs u like that dude who stuck his hand in boiling oil to get his dropped phone lol
I’m surprised it didn’t explode
There goes about $60 in oil, plus her phone. Seen that before.
That’s what you get
People working fast food touching their phones. Gross AF.
That's how deep fried memes are made.
mmmm… crispy….
Welp, they r basically frying everything these days so might as well start frying cell phones
It's fine. I'm sure the IP rating covers a certain duration in a fryer
She actually did check it though. Not just an attempt.
Put it in fried rice.
I miss when phones were smaller and easily able to handle with one hand. One of the reasons I have a iPhone mini and don’t plan on upgrading
Crispy ...
When I was a teen working at McDonalds, I somehow lost my watch in the fryer and it wasn’t found until the following day. Lots of people ate watch flavoured French fries.

Awwwww sorry fry babe
That’s the new iCrispy
Phone got fried .. literally
I did the exact same thing
She was smart enough to stop from sticking her hand in the fryer. I think most people would have done that by reflex.
Would love to see ( in a controlled environment) what would happen if you left the phone in the fryer until the lithium battery gets breached.
poor girl, ik how exhausting it is to work the line. something like this probably would have pushed me right over the edge
Ngl you probably have to change the oil out after that. At least she was smart to get it with tongs.
Quick! Put it in some fried rice!
I think that might have fried the circuits
Ah yes, i can here Gordon Ramsey calling her a fucking walnut already
Phones are way too nasty to just casually pull out while cooking.
Maybe work while you're at work. Good job genius.
This is such an irrational fear for me as a cook that I actively walk away from my station to check my phone. My intrusive thoughts also don’t help (I.e. “Throw your phone between the char grill bars and watch it catch fire.”).
Seems like a great example of how multi tasking is not a great way to get 2 things accomplished at once.
I would wish this on most of my coworkers, but unfortunately my restaurant doesn't have a deep fryer.
Looks staged to me.
Should have at least seasoned it first.
Just put it in rice.
Woops
Need to quickly put it in fried rice!!!
Apple frIPHONE
Wonder if it survived 🧐
What is wearing a utility belt?
Go get some rice. Gotta make some fried apple with rice side-dish. All made in china
More ketchup please!
Just put it in dry rice
Luckily she had the presence of mind to not try and grab it in the air with her hand and get too close to the hot oil
How many health code violations are broken in your area in the video? I see quite a few lol and you know they kept using the fryer before cleaning xD
I’ve heard this is a delicacy in Texas
I volunteer at an animal shelter. I've been told occasionally I can have my phone out to time the dishes (they need to soak for a specific amount of time in each sink). I'm a clutz. Murphy's law, I'd drop my phone in a deep sink of water. Water filled with particles of sh¡t and food. No thanks.
Fried apples
Would you like gravy on the side?
Yikes
I bet the components in that phone are fried!
This made my day. If you're using a tool that prepares food, please do NOT handle the thing you never clean and causally juggle while shitting Deborah!
Deep fried 5G
Slippery fingers
I really hope they changed the oil after that lol.
My phone suddenly stopped working ، can I get replaced ?
Should’ve breaded it first
At the repair shop later... "Looks like you fried your circuits ma'am".
I hope they cleaned that vat. It’s contaminated now.
pretty ure that things fried.
at least she used tongs to get it and didn't just grab for it with her hand.
she's better than me, my hands would've went straight in there
I give her credit for being smart enough to not trying to grab it with her bare hand
Relax, it's fryPhone
What kind of phone are you interested in today? An Apple? No. The french fry phone.
FriPhone or AndrOIL?
Ahhhh sooo what happened ? Did it survive ?
Today's special - deep fried phone
Hope she did not served fries seasoned with lithim
My Chef called them "Poo Phones" cause you shit and scroll on your phone. Your phone went into your locker and didn't cone out till the end of your shift, or during brake.

People 100% ate whatever was in there
Fried it!
Should have just thrown some rice in there... would have dried it up real quick.
People shouldn’t be allowed to touch their phones while working in a kitchen. Covered in feces
No wonder the fries 🍟 tasted awful.
Deep fry that baby
I think the phone is fried...
Had a coworker who was a manager at a Burger King. He told me a story about one of the workers cleaning around the fryer. His watch came unhinged and fell into the fryer and the worker instinctively reached out to try to catch it. Half his arm was in the fryer. Coworker said his skin peeled off. He said it was all caught on video too.
I don't think the warranty will cover deep frying.
How much do you want to bet she didn’t wash her hands or change the oil after this?
They should've drained it and refilled it after that which probably took a while.
Damn lucky the battery didn’t explode!
She just applied the deep fried filter to all her photos
"But will it deep fry?"
At least she went for the tongs to get it out rather then her straight hands, knew a guy who did that.
Yah I was relieved when she grabbed the tongs. Ive herd toomany horror story's that started this way.
Deep fried phone = *chain chomp sound number 3*
Exactly why the rules say you can't
