Having nail polish at my job is an issue.?
So i work at a fast food restaurant & we aren't supposed to wear nail polish when working in the kitchen. Well i have been wearing nail polish the whole 2 years i have worked there & no one has said a damn thing, because we are required to wear gloves anyway while working with food. Well we recently just got a new manager that is a male & he has been really cool & easy going but for some reason yesterday he noticed my nails & told me i had to take them off but i made up an excuse as to why i couldn't because I did my nails in a certain design that took me HOURS to do & i really want to avoid taking them off. Well I want to know if I should just go ahead & remove them or keep them & hope that he'll just brush it off or hope that i don't get put in the kitchen today to work with the food, or maybe hope that that specific manager isn't there today? I really don't want to remove them. But then again if he IS there today when i go in at my shift, i don't know if he'll try to get me to take them off or just ignore it.

you have a new manager who follows the rules. he's told you to remove your nail polish. refusal to do so will be considered insubordination & result in either a written warning or firing.
if you want to keep your job, lose the nail polish. you admit you knew the rules & disobeyed them anyway. it doesn't matter that the old manager allowed you to get away with it, what matters is the current manager isn't going to allow it.

The rules are no polish in the kitchen if you show up and haven't removed them you could be fired, it sounds like this manager does things by the book. making up an excuse isn't a valid reason, sorry but if you want the job, follow the rules

When you KNOW you are doing something against the rules and you have been asked to correct it and you have refused, that is grounds for being terminated. Why would he bother to keep asking you? He is not your mother. If I were the new manager I'd fire you just to make an example of you. The rest will fall in line if he does that.
