If you work with food, how can you control yourself so you don’t eat it?
Reply in thread
In any kitchen producing food at that scale, they are going to make huge amounts of food in bulk. Then the people they are feeding line up, and are handed plates of what they want to eat. At the end of the day, the pots or trays the food was served from are often still full of food. Partly because some people won't like creamed corn or baked chicken or whatever. But mostly because at such a large scale, there is going to be a significant margin of error in how much food is produced and how much is consumed, and you always err on the side of making too much so that you don't have any unhappy customers when you run out of something.
The manager of such a kitchen typically has the overall responsibility of ensuring everyone is fed, making hiring and firing descisions, and making purchasing descisions. They know the kitchen intentionally overproduces in order to have a safety buffer. And if this was all there was to it, they probably wouldn't care if the kitchen staff ate what was left over in the serving trays after a meal.
The problem is that the kitchen staff get used to this benefit. They start expecting to be able to eat as much as they want of the best parts of every meal. They bring home huge trays of food that is left over, feeding themselves on their off-days as well, and possibly feeding their families. And this is still all fine from a food waste perspective - the problem is when kitchen staff start making 3 extra trays of chicken thighs "just in case", to make sure there is enough left over for them to take home. Or when they grab the small serving spoon for the potato salad, so the people they are feeding get a smaller portion while the kitchen staff get a larger amount of leftovers. The manager's incentive is to produce just enough food to feed all the customers with no leftovers (and accepts some leftovers as a buffer), while the kitchen staff's incentive is to produce as much food as possible so they have as much leftovers as possible (while not becoming so excessive as to raise the manager's suspicions).
Hence, management institutes some sort of rule about eating the food produced. What rule is implemented can vary. Some managers might decree that all kitchen staff can have one plate of food. Some might say it is fine to take home leftovers. And some might say (as in OP's case) that eating any of the food is stealing.

What do your daily meals look like each day?
Breakfast: Coffee, maybe with milk.
Lunch: Usually nothing, maybe a salad.
Dinner: Burritos

I'm not sure what a "water storage membrane" - but based on the rv toilets and generator, I'm guessing it just has a blackwater tank.

I think there do exist specific circumstances where people should be violently murdered. But if I'm able to talk to them on a public internet forum, it is almost certainly not that circumstance.

Is it okay to express your feelings for someone even if you don't think they reciprocate
I am very confused by your post because it seems like you failed your class on how to appropriately use punctuation, and I can't tell where one sentence ends and another starts.
But the answer is: Yes, obviously you should express your feelings, even if you aren't sure they will reciprocate. If two people are interested in eachother, someone has to make the first move. So if they haven't yet, it has to be you!
Of course, they might say yes, no, or I dunno, or anything else. But none of that matters because you can't control any of that - what you can control is what you do. And your odds of getting a "yes" are infinitely better if you make a move rather than doing nothing.
The important thing is what happens after. Can you get shot down and then just say "okay", and move on with your life? If so, great. If not, well, don't do that.
