Shopping, what does “co-workers who claim to keep kashrut, you have no idea to what degree, how well they keep things seperate or what hechshers they use” have to do with being Sephardi? As for hechshers, if it is an Orthodox hechsher not relying on it is only a chumra. There is an opinion, in fact, that someone who does not rely on Chazal’s heterim (e.g. ed echad ne’eman b’issurim) is a heretic as he disagrees with Chazal (Pitchei Teshuva YD 116:10 in the name of Sulam l’Mincha Klal 76 DIn 8).
