Justin's HIV Journal: What if your Food Server was HIV positive?

[orbital92hotmail]

notice this vid is shot in the gay community. I would not be comfortable with a HIV person serving me.

[jsmithco98]

@orbital92hotmail So you're correlating being HIV positive to t gay community? Also if that's true you probably have already been served by a poz server and how would you know unless you asked your waiter which I hope you didn't

I insist on only going to a place where ALL food is handled by someone wearing gloves. I purposefully avoid local fast food joints especially those owned by indians who don't follow this rule.

@jsmithco98: Glad to help. There are good people on our side inside the Obama administration . . . On April 8, 2011, the US Department of Labor's Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP) and Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis hosted a national Roundtable on HIV and Employment at which I was honored to testify. Representatives of the US Department of Justice and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission testified as well. Let me know if can help more.

Discrimination against persons with HIV is forbidden by federal and DC law and applies to food service, health care, personal services, etc. As of 2009, Congress passed legislation that specifically included HIV/AIDS in the protections of the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) that prohibits against discrimination n hiring or employment. The US Departments of Labor and Justice as well as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission all enforce this law. If you have problems, let them know.

@gospelbird22 THAT WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SCENES

I loved and enjoyed this. I think it's either a sign that folks are more enlightened or they're just being polite. Though that guy was genuine in his swear-filled response. I do wonder though, if you had come across some who had an issue with a server having HIV if you would have educated them if you felt they were open and receptive to it? Thanks for being you and share yourself with us!
