39. His Career Was Fried
I was a sous chef at an upscale restaurant in a historical tourist place in Virginia. I had a fry cook get mad at a server who decided to bypass talking to me and speak directly to him. They proceeded to argue about how hot the fries were that were sent out, and before I could calm the situation, he pulled up a basket of hot fries and slung the contents at the server.
The server sustained some minor burns, but fortunately, the fry cook’s aim was bad, and most of the fries hit her waist area, which was covered by an apron. The fry cook was immediately sent home and later fired. I also think he had some charges laid against him as well.
