    Why did anyone even touch the grapes after signing the paper? Seems like a good excuse to say “I can’t do that. No gloves. I signed a thing, remember?”

      That’s essentially what I did. As far as I could tell, I was the only one who took issue with it.

      I looked my manager square in the face and told them I would not, under any circumstances, be stocking grapes unless the proper safety equipment was available.

      That’s a job I never had to do again. Because they never got the safety equipment.

      Right to refuse unsafe working conditions is a right where I live. If they tried to retaliate against me it would become a very short lawsuit.
