[Histonet] Food and drink?

[Joe Nocito]

I used to chew tobacco at my microtome. Some of the girls around me didn't 
like me spitting in their trashcans

We have the same rules as those below.  As far as contacts, you can wear 
them, just not put them in or take them out at the bench.  Don't know why 
you would, but that's what the rule says.

I (probably like many), remember the days when it was perfectly acceptable 
to eat, drink, and smoke at the microtome.

For your information: smoking, drinking and eating, applying cosmetics, or 
even using contact lens are ABSOLUTELY prohibited in a medical histology 
laboratory setting.
  Should I imply by your question that you do not work in a medical lab. 
setting? Some universities and animal labs have been able to get away with 
ignoring those regulations up to now, but not any medical lab. that even 
have to have designated lounge areas.

  Dare I ask this question,
Does anyone use closed topped and safety mugs at their microtome station 
when cutting slides...etc.? Would cutting paraffin blocks constitute Blood 
Borne Pathogen concerns? I fully understand not eating while paraffin is 
flying all over the place......but closed containers with coffee for those 
of us who work sleep deprived hours? Someone save us!
