Ed is interviewing candidates for sandwich makers at a sub shop. While interviewing Nicole, he notices she has long, polished, fake nails. What should he do?
  1. Tell Nicole her nails are pretty.
  2. Tell Nicole that fake nails and polish are not allowed.
  3. Nothing, the nails are acceptable.
  4. Ask Nicole how often she has her nails re-done.
Explanation
Answer: B - If Ed notices Nicole has long, polished, fake nails at the interview, he should tell her that fake nails and polish are not allowed. Some regulatory authorities may allow nails and polish if gloves are worn while handling food. However, nail polish may hide dirt under the nails, long nails are harder to keep clean and fake nails could tear gloves or break off into food. Ed should discuss requirements with Nicole at the interview so she is aware of how her nails can affect her job.
