CVN - The Tim Horton

The deck of carrier during flight ops is no doubt the most dangerous place on the planet. Or at least the most dangerous 3 acres or so (used to be less).
But Tim Horton's donut shops are running a close second: last week I was in one where there were 8 staff working behind the counter, in a space of not more than 30 square feet (that's about 4 square feet per person - I don't want to know 7 other people that well). Of course, there were no spinning sharp thingys or whirling sucky things that can chop you to Timbits; but hot coffee and donuts are dangerous too.
