The Things You See When You Haven't Got Your Gun

So, I'm waiting in at the second drive-through window at Burger King. I'd already paid for my hamburger and drink. I was watching the people work, as I am wont to do, when my eyes fell upon this memo unwisely posted within my line of sight:

Team:

I've been reviewing the tapes from the surveillance cameras and I am disappointed to find many violations of the rules including: not wearing gloves when preparing food, not washing hands and eating in the food preparation area. These are all disciplinary problems. I will now be watching the surveillance tapes daily in order to monitor the situation. Consider this your verbal warning.

Todd

Two things went through my mind when I read this:

1. Dammit, I've already paid for my food and I'm too cheap to drive off in a huff of moral indignation and mysophobic panic


2. Wow, I'm glad I don't work there.

I took comfort in the notion that it was highly likely that Todd was able to get compliance to the basic health rules by threatening to monitor the workers constantly and then making good on it. Perhaps people are wearing gloves now, or at the very least, washing their hands regularly.

A girl can hope, right?

Or did the Team go overboard and take a page out of this asshat's book...

Oh, the humanity!
