Why not? It isn't that bad, unless you are the one on the gutting table.

edit: just to clarify since it could be unclear, I mean work on the gutting table, not be the one 'being gutted'. The people who do the job actually stand on the moving table.

There isn't anything really horrific about the kill floor, other than the obvious presence of dead cows. They are just cows hanging there. There isn't a large cow abusing system there that would turn people away from eating meat for the rest of their lives. The stuff you see in random youtube videos posted by animal activists just doesn't happen there.
