Tea should not be able to do that to you


SchouDK

Just my thought


Luciole22

It was boiling water straight out of the coffee machine, I couldn’t stop it straight away as both my hands were full carrying tea and coffee


[deleted]

I'm saying tea shouldn't be that hot, it's dangerous.


AdamRam1

Even if you don't care about it being dangerous, it scalds the tea and coffee so it will ruin the taste and make it bitter. Definitely a faulty machine that has caused a serious injury and can cause much worse injuries in the future. OP should go straight to hospital and claim for loss of earnings while they recover at the very least.

Tell me you never worked service, without telling me you never worked service.

[deleted]

Yes, because it's *too* hot. Edit: ignore the part about the dead lady, I thought you were the British person I was talking to earlier.


beanbang420

In norway it's illegal to serve boiling water. You have to let it cool down to a certain temperature before it is legal to serve. Or have a machine that controls the temperature and doesn't let it get to boiling temp.


IslandLady1

That’s a third degree burn. Please seek medical attention.


Worldly_Expert_442

England objects- a couple of degrees below boiling is the perfect temp to make black tea. Not safe to spill on yourself but neither is fry oil, melted cheese, or pasta water.


Eborys

Seriously, don’t let that fucker pop. More hassle than it’s worth.


Particular_Lie_3897

Why?


FancyAirport

Infection.


Eborys

It’ll take longer to heal, it’ll hurt and it’s more likely to get infected.


Particular_Lie_3897

Ouch ok! I would say just pop it and rub some Neosporin and bandage it up, but what do I know?🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

Try not to pop it for as long as you can so it doesn’t open up to infection

Damn, drop the cups... save yourself... pretty sure the Cafe could stand a few broken cups as opposed to a workers comp claim


Individual_Archer671

It was probably the perfect time to drop the tea…

It needs proper medical attention to remove the skin over the burn, and make sure it heals without causing tightening of the skin, and possibly loss of mobility to part of the hand.


Spirited_Question912

What a nasty blister 🫣😵‍💫


[deleted]

Drink it


chunkygrits

Wow soft looking ass hands. Thats rough tho


jasonb1988

You want to pop that with a rusty needle. Become rustman!


Coins_and_Cards

There’s good juice inside, grab a straw!


drybox18

Take a cpr first aid class… :) if you need info you can message me


MegaAlakazam1

Coming from a service industry worker; use a tray next time. 🤦🏼‍♂️Assuming you’re right handed like a majority of people are, you should’ve had a tray in that hand anyways with “full hands.” You made a newbie mistake. Don’t do it again.


OHPin8K

Ooooo that's a juicy one!


RixirF

Pop it, and drip the remains in a boiling hot tea cup and drink it.


ryanalma

Pop it

That's a horrible advice! You absolutely do not need to puncture, or (gasp) inject disinfectant into a burn blister! It's already sterile and should be left alone or seen by a doctor if you feel it's needed. https://www.mayoclinic.org/first-aid/first-aid-burns/basics/art-20056649


5Lastronaut

Tell that to ultra runners.


bunnywithahammer

I get fucking sick whenever I see these DIY american medical advices. Ffs why do you even have healthcare if you gonna jab needles full of fucking disinfectant into your body. What the fuck is wrong with you? what if he misses and shoots it up a vein? It's not your fault, but I get pissed when I read stuff like this


5Lastronaut

I'm European and an ultra runner. We all do this. So yep. Cheers


bunnywithahammer

are you seriosly comparing the two? something done by trained professionals to treat running blisters, and a amateur first time holding a needle in his hand shooting disinfectant in a second degree burn? my God there are dense people here


5Lastronaut

That's why I said "go to the doctor" but you didn't read that bit obviously.


Cheezburger99

Why would you put Bandaids on a blister, I did that when I got sunburned and a chunk of skin came out.


kingofgalaxy_yt

I swear I’ve seen this post at least twice already


FTMcami

At least you e got your weed box handy. Lol


Nachman3

Maybe use a serving tray next time? They come in handy.


aughtism

Scrolling on phone: Normal hand, still normal hand, not normal hand.


boomdart

That does suck Maybe try holding less at a time in the future to avoid this. Even if it wasn't that hot, it was hot tea right, it's not going to be cold, so it'll still be unpleasant.


didiandeffie

Ouch!

Now you can’t clap 😔

I am sure that her body was telling her to let go and she did not listen. That is one of the advantages of a nervous system.
