I used to work at McDonalds for years during my student life, I can tell you one thing, there are A LOT of dirtier, nastier things that go in a 'kitchen sink' (it was used for EVERYTHING, not only the kitchen) than a sweaty employee.

As long as he wasn't bathing in my double bacon chesseburger and orange pop I'm okay.

BK had really good orange pop.

Are there any BKs left in Calgary? The 3 that I would sometimes go to (2 on MacLeod and one in Deer Run) are all closed down.

One in Forest Lawn and one in Marlborough Park.

Though I didn't know the Deer Run one was shut down. I ate there two months ago!

I used to work at Burger King and we never had a sink that could fit an entire human being. If we did, I am sure one of the idiots that worked with me would have attempted something similar to this guy.

I can understand peoples disgust over this. It is a utility sink, primarily for washing dishes, but when I worked there, we also did some of the prep in that area, like preparing the lettuce and tomatoes and such. Plus, like the woman in that video said, it also makes you wonder if they thought this was funny enough to do, what 'funny' things did they do to the food?

Having said that, I will still happily chow down on my Whopper... when I am finally off my diet.

But did you see all the soap in the water? When he was done, the sink was probably cleaner than it had been in months....

Well, I am not sure about this BK, but we cleaned ours quite often, so they were very clean.

Another thing, does the video say when this was done? Was it done while the store was open or afterhours? Where was the manager when it was going on? I am just surprised someone didn't see it and stop it.

Here is a link to a story on it.
It happened in Ohio and by the sounds I am guessing it happened after hours. Also the manager was right there when it was happening.
And as to why nobody stopped it, cause they are a bunch of minimum wage paid teenagers who thought it was the greatest thing ever.

Do you have Arby's up there? I worked at one in high school. Someone bathing in the sink would have been the least of the customers' worries. That so-called roast beef had to be baked, and before we put it in the oven we had to "shape" it after unwrapping because it was kind of a blob. It often got dropped on the floor and we were told to just pick it up ,rinse it off, and throw it on the pan. This in upscale Boca Raton, employing upscale Boca teenagers..lol. Also there's a swanky expensive gourmet pizza place in downtown Delray. They take your cash,wipe their noses and then knead your pizza dough . Why people go there is beyond me, and why they haven't been shut down is something else. (Payoffs?) Hope you dont take your family there after a day at the beach Wade Belak..now that you're living here!

After having worked in the food injury, this is nothing. Maybe a different matter if he was naked on a surface that actually touched food without washing it after.

Truth is after that guy finished in the sink, the sink was probably the cleanest it had been in years since it looks like it actually got some soap and water in it.

Right. I'm too lazy to get the link but that book "Kitchen Confidential" pretty much says it all. It's just not fast food places...you may never eat out again!

Let's not paint all restaurants with the same brush here. The one I worked at was exceptionally clean. The manager made sure we did everything strictly by the book and everything was cleaned, time and time again.

True. Some are fanatically strict beyond the call of duty..the ones that aren't, I'm pretty sure they get caught eventually. You just have to know where to go. And I CERTAINLY wasn't saying all restaurants are filthy. I just mentioned a few local incidents and a funny thought-provoking book by a restaurant employee. Jeez.
