    Note: if you are in the US work places aren’t allowed to go over 76°F. This is something OSHA would be interested if the owner isn’t interested in fixing things.

      Unfortunately that’s not true like the other guy said, what did happen though was the cooling cabinets wouldn’t stay within for safety limits so there was a chance that things would be in the temperature danger zone for too long.

      After I left I did call the health department as I was concerned with how the bakery manager was that they wouldn’t try and fix any of the issues unless forced too.

      I also found out, last week that the business owner finally fired her as she didn’t want to close the business for a couple days when they had an active sewage leak in the basement and instead of trying to solve the problem she just complained how it was inconveniencing her and then she left to go to a Phillies game.

      That’s not true. How do you suppose people work outside in most summer climates? There are rules regarding water availability and such, but no outright prohibitions on working above a certain temperature.

      Hell, I keep my AC set at 78F because it takes the edge off but is easy on my energy bill.
