    An old math/science teacher I know always says: „Vorsicht, heiß und fettig! Ungelernter Kellner!“

    Which is german for:

    Careful, hot and greasy! Untrained waiter!

    Having worked in a kitchen, “knife behind” if you have a knife or just really want to make sure nobody moves, “behind” if you are more okay accidentally bumping booty.

    “Coming through!” “Make a hole!” “Hot! Burn risk is moving!” “Do not move! I’m passing behind you!” “Sharp! Broken glass/knife/whatever is moving!”

    I’m sure there are others along similar lines. These are the ones I remember from another life working in food service.

        100%. In poorly designed kitchens, if one has the time/space, adding some detail can take a callout from “casual proactive safety blanket” to something much more impactful and helpful with a smidge of context.

    Just wear loud clothing so everyone can always tell when you’re moving. Something like corduroy pants, a windbreaker or a cowbell.

    In German they have “Wahrschau” which coincidentally also sounds like the name of the capital in Poland, however it comes from shipping industry and to my knowledge is a shorter version of “Wahr nehmen und schauen” which roughly translates to “hey, look at me”. I might be wrong, but that’s what I’ve heard.

    Edit: typo 😅 Edit 2: some more of my incompetence

      which confidently also is the name of the capital in Poland

      Contrary to Krakow, which was never very confident and is therefore no longer the capital of Poland.

      I never heard that. When you say “shipping industry”, maybe it’s a northern thing?

      Also: it’s “wahrnehmen”. You take it as real, not as it was.

        Sorry about the typo. My German is a rusty 😅 As to whether it’s a shipping or a northern thing, could be both. I used to study maritime navigation in northern Germany and this was a very common saying in between the maritime crowd. Did hear it out side of it though. But I might be mistaken.
