Burger King Employees Fired For Printing ‘F— You’ On Receipt

And here I thought Burger King was the classy fast food establishment! Oh wait that’s Wendy’s. Anywho, two California Burger King employees were fired for printing “FUCK YOU” on a customer’s receipt. Watch local reporters take the matter very seriously.

First: who knew these fast food dudes could print whatever they wanted on receipts in the first place? Why haven’t we heard more about this? Forget spitting on burgers – what’s the fun of drive-thru mischief if there’s like zero chance your victim ever finds out about it? – I’d be printing zingers on receipts left and right. But I digress!

This report seems a little silly, no? Like the idea that this fellow would sue the King over this? What are his damages? He seems a little too smug about the whole thing anyway. [KCRA]

    Over two minutes and a whole on site news crew wasted, all over kids putting the word F#$k on a receipt? Only in America would this be considered newsworthy.

    I’m actually surprised Giz thinks it’s worth publishing too.

      only in america would the option to sue the company be there – also, why is the manager getting fired?

    Maybe they were just recommending the Cee Lo Green Song? Since when is musical advise offensive?

    It seems odd to us, but remember that is America. They think “fuck you” and bare nipples are worse than baby killers there.
