I worked there in the old days when I was in high school (late 90's), and one of the most disgusting stories I have about a job is when I went to refill the orange juice dispenser machine, and a giant swarm of flies were all over and in the top of the machine. In the orange juice, all along the sides of the inside, and flying around like a small swarm when I opened it.

I yelped and stepped back. A manager rushed over to me, slammed the lid shut, and told me to not tell anyone.

I quit a couple weeks later.

Fruit flies or house flies? The difference matters.

Is one worse than the other for some reason?

Fruit flies eat fruit and are harmless (if gross) to ingest. Black flies eat feces and rotting flesh and transmit all manner of diseases.
