Dishwasher sheepishly asked for some fries. This is what I made for him.

Hey, I'm a dishwasher and prep cook. So is there anyone who could tell me what this does?

I have looked at the part with two wheels at the top near the blade, but no one else except maybe my boss knows what this is and I can't tell how it functions. I would ask my boss if I didn't keep forgetting whenever I'm at work, so is there anyone here who could answer my question?

Edit: My question has been answered. But thanks a bunch to everyone who answered my question. 😁✌️

2 years in the hole, health issues imminent, do I get out?

Been dishing for two years and I’m the best the company has got so they’ve made exceptions for me to stay year round instead of seasonal. Getting fed up with management there after I got hit with overuse injuries and tendonitis in my shoulder and wrist, so i found a new gig but it seems like the same if not more strain. Starting to get chronic pain in my feet as well. I’m only 26 and somehow I don’t really smoke or drink much. I’m only 5’3 and the new gig has two dishwashers (one normal and one glassware) that I have to bend down to load up, and aside from kitchen prep and service dishes, I’m supposed to handle all the glasses from bar service. First shift there was nuts. I couldn’t even reach most places I had to put away clean dishes. With all my health problems seeming to get worse I somehow can’t decide if I should get into the new job or just quit before I even get a foothold, or get saddled with new chronic pains from bending and lifting all night…

Just a guy who didn’t realize he would start washing dishes for a living…

Did you ever get free food if you worked at a university dishwasher?

When my crippling depression came again, management and close coworkers were on my side! They all came to me, telling me you are not alone! I fight it so hard! But some days it comes and comes again. I love my company! Fighting depression is a killer! Remember you are not alone fam! Find the right company with the right management and the right coworkers, you can freaking survive!

Just walked 3.5 miles in the rain at 4am to work and this is what I came into.
