That's Saucy!

MIAMI (AP) - A Wendy's manager was shot several times in the arm early Tuesday morning trying to protect the restaurant's chili sauce, authorities said.

A man in the drive-through argued with an employee because he wanted more of the condiment, police said. The worker told the customer that restaurant policy prohibited a customer from getting more than three packets. The man insisted on 10, reports said. The employee complied, but police said the customer wanted more.When the manager came out to speak to the man, the customer shot the manager, Mary Walters, a Miami-Dade police spokeswoman, said.

The manager was taken to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, police said.The customer fled in a brown four-door vehicle with a female passenger.



I HATE it when they don't give you enough condiments! One small shot for a Miami man, one giant leap towards the end of snotty counter employees who act like the ketchup comes out of their salary. Hey, here's an idea, fast food restaurants: reasonably sized condiment portions! Who uses only one little packet??? All those messy little sticky packs are a royal pain. Is someone going to have to die before we solve this problem? Tomato rage. It's real, and it's nasty.
