This is just flat out disgusting. According to the article, the guy who did the deed was fined $100... nowhere near enough. He should have spent 30 days in the slammer. Also, if it is true that the management knew about it and did nothing, the judgement is nowhere near big enough.
Sick f'rs.
I've never worked in a restaurant (or fast food joint) before. Some of you must have... what's your grossest story from 'behind the scenes'?
I knew a guy who peed in the big thing of chili at a Wendy's on his last day. That's the grossest I've ever heard. I'll never order anything from a restaurant that has been sitting in a big pot all day now.
I worked at McDonald's when I was 16. We used to mess around but never using bodily fluids. People would order Egg McMuffins and we'd just put a whole raw egg (still in the shell) in the bun with the cheese and "ham". Or make Big Macs with chicken instead of beef, or put Happy Meal toys like GI Joe or Barbie in the bun with the rest of the burger. Stupid and immature maybe, but not dangerous or gross.

Back in my HS days i worked at Rotten Ronnies and saw staff members mess with the food. Nobody spat or urinated on food but i did see burgers dipped in the grease vat or dropped on the floor then placed on a burger.

This is why I can't wait for robotics to advance to the level of fast food service worker. People who do crap like this need to be pushed off a cliff.

Yeah, same here. I worked at BK in high school, and while I always heard stories, I never saw anyone actually do anything outside of the stuff you mentioned, dropping food and still using it, etc., which I would chalk up more to laziness than anything else.
I heard a while back on the news that some punk spit (or used some bodily fluid) into an officers drink at the drive through. I think I read that he sued that individual employee, NOT the franchise. I would like to sue both!

We had this one emplyee back then who used to take dead flies and fry them up in the same vat the fries were cooked in.
I worked at Subway long, long ago. I threw away a green pepper that was infested with maggots. When the store owner came in, she always through the garbage and tried to force me to scrape out and use the green pepper anyway. I refused, and she docked my pay $3.
I made sure on the next visit from the Subway rep, that she heard all about that one!
I used to work at KFC when I was putting myself through school. In the 2 years, 2 months, 2 weeks and 2 days (I didn't plan for it to work out exactly like that) that I worked there, I did not see anybody intentionally do harm to any of the food. I did see chicken get dropped and quickly put back into the tray.
I also got into a fight with one guy when the cashier dropped a bucket of chicken and then threw it into the garbage back in the kitchen. The guy I fought wanted to take the chicken out of the garbage and put it back on the tray. He got really mad when I threw it back into the garbage. He was soo mad that he had to take the 3 minutes to bread another basket of chicken, and then the less than 2 minutes to take the chicken out of the cooker and put in on a tray.

In retaliation, you should have put a sign on the glass infront of the sandwiches that said 'SPECIAL: foot-long Cold Cut Trio with maggot-infested vegetables!"
If your manager asked you to take down the sign, you should then say that you have a moral obligation to tell the general public about this public health concern. Any refute from her would have made her look like a jackass.
i worked at mcdicks for 4 years, never did anything like that or saw anything like that. Although, I wouldn't recommend the filet o fish. I remember one day where 8 were made at 11 am for the start of lunch and some poor old lady receieved the last of those 8 at about 930 pm. Absolutely against the regulations and extremely disgusting.

Yeah, working at BK, I saw a lot of that as well. Never eat those apple pies they have, cause those things literally sit around all day. Same with the specialty type stuff like the fish.
