$35.000 Burger King Phone Prank.

[Doctor Amadeus]

Burger King employees in Morro Bay did more than smash windows over a prank call last Saturday. A manager went so far as to ram his car into the building to, presumably, save the employees within from a supposed gas leak — causing a total of $35,000 in damage.
The chaotic night started with a late-night phone call to the Burger King on 781 Quintana Rd. where a prankster allegedly claimed to be from the local fire department. The caller reported that there was a gas leak at that location and instructed the employees to break all of the windows, according to The Tribune.

Guess it would have been too much work to prop some doors open eh?

I am kind of hoping the employees were just pissed at the owners, rather than this confused.

How did nobody have the sense to call the fire department and double check before doing something that might get themselves fired?

So these are the people who "deserve" $25/hour pay.

I guess we're lucky the pranksters didn't pretend the be the Health Department claiming there was e-coli in the beef and that it had to be washed in Clorox before being sold.

How did anyone think it was sensible to smash your car into anything when you have a gas leak?

[want my Slimjim]

Yet people still want to give them $15 hr wages. Fucking craziness.

[Aeula]

Jesus Christ.

Well at least they're dedicated, right?

Yes because obviously everybody in fast food is this fucking stupid.

We pay some people a lot more than that and they are just as fucking stupid.

Well I don't know I haven't been to a fast food restaurant in 15 years.

But consider all the other stories that come from fast-food it would seem that the average isn't that far off from what is on display in that video.

It isn't about want, it is about need. Maybe if these dudes were spending time doing something other than shovelling fatty foods into customers 80 hours a week they may have time to educate themselves.

You realize that the news is basically one giant selection bias machine? Nobody sees the headline "Normal Day at McDonalds on 5th St." because that's not even close to newsworthy.

That's just it stories which is why this is a story meaning it doesn't happen all the time. Just like customers attacking a drive thru because they ran out if chicken McNuggets.

You would have to hear 100+ stories a day for it to be anything close to an average..............but go ahead with hyperbole.

And this is the type of idiot that thinks sitting on their ass at a desk doing data entry is a "real" job deserving of a decent wage.

The only generalisation I could make of fast food workers is that they are dog tired almost all the time. At least in Australia they get paid a decent wage.

Who are you referring to here?

Haha, but those McNugget rampage videos sure are entertaining aren't they? I'm going to watch some right now.

Of course.

And I've always wanted to ask why the women in your avatar appears not to have any arms.

Almost as funny as a couple of cops calling 911 because they baked pot brownies and thought they were dying of an overdose.
