That customer, Charleigh Matice, said when she went to put mayonnaise on her bun she found a swastika etched in butter on it. Matice said she couldn't believe someone could possibly do that in this day and time. "Is this a joke? Does somebody really think they're funny?," Matice said. This anti-Semitic symbol was used by the Nazi party in Germany during the Holocaust. Her grandfather had fought in World War II. She said the swastika really offended her. "Many people died because of that symbol and it’s not something that should be taken lightly. It’s not something that should be thrown around," Matice said. She said when she went inside the restaurant employees offered to replace it. "I really didn't have an appetite at that point so I said I rather have my money back,” Matice said. However, Matice said even with the money she didn't feel satisfied. She wants the incident addressed at a larger scale. "Maybe it needs to be part of training, or maybe brought up more often so that people know that this is not okay," Matice said. We contacted McDonald's corporate office about the incident. They emailed us a statement from the owner of that McDonald's in Morehead City. “We are very sorry for the service that our customers received, and to be clear we have terminated the employee who was involved. We do not tolerate that kind of behavior at McDonald's, and it's not what we stand for personally as owners. It is about providing the best level of service and care to our customers, and anything less than that is unacceptable to us.” - Dulcy Purcell, local McDonald's Owner/Operator in Morehead City, NC Matice said she’s not upset with McDonald’s anymore.[/quote] [url]http://www.wcti12.com/news/customer-finds-nazi-symbol-on-her-chicken-sandwich/27401580[/url]

"I'm sorry. I was trying to draw a Windows logo, but we were running out of butter, so I had to ration things." "I'm a Mac user and I find that [I]extremely[/I] offensive."

you know that this dude was like "nah why would they lift the bun. i'm bored" and then sold it to one of the few customers that actually adds stuff on the burger

[quote]This anti-Semitic symbol was used by the Nazi party in Germany during the Holocaust[/quote] wow this article is really insightful

Good. If you don't take your job seriously you shouldn't have it. Wait, they put [I]butter[/I] on sandwiches there? Isn't it greasy enough already?

[quote] We do not tolerate that kind of behavior at McDonald's, and it's not what we stand for personally as owners[/quote] The swastika is originally (and largely) a religious symbol meaning peace. Would they fire someone if they etched a cross into a bun?

[QUOTE=KingKombat;45658825]you know that this dude was like "nah why would they lift the bun. i'm bored" and then sold it to one of the few customers that actually adds stuff on the burger[/QUOTE] It was still a silly thing to do, though. He could have doodled plenty of other things. A stick figure, for instance. Or a fluffy cloud.

"hey guys okay NO MORE DRAWING SWASTIKAS. fuck" like i mean it was one employee you sensitive fucking snowflake

What if he was Hindu?

[QUOTE=HazzaHardie;45658835]wow this article is really insightful[/QUOTE] Surprising how many people forget that the Swastika was around long before Nazi Germany even adopted it as their symbol of choice.

[QUOTE=NixNax123;45658838]The swastika is originally (and largely) a religious symbol meaning peace. Would they fire someone if they etched a cross into a bun?[/QUOTE] That's not even relevant. If you [I]really[/I] think that was the intention of the dude who put it on that bun, you're the most naive person on the planet.

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;45658876]That's not even relevant. If you [I]really[/I] think that was the intention of the dude who put it on that bun, you're the most naive person on the planet.[/QUOTE] He was obviously trying to spread Nazism through McDonalds food Thank god he was stopped

For a split second, I misread "decided to etch" as "declined to etch." Still, although she overreacted with the whole "I'm not hungry anymore" bit, she was right to be offended at least.

Ugh it was with that gross chicken too. The one where you order plain but it's ALWAYS going to have a hint of ranch in it?

At least it wasn't cum or spit. Or thousand island sauce.

[QUOTE]"Maybe it needs to be part of training, or maybe brought up more often so that people know that this is not okay," Matice said. [/QUOTE] Only way to really solve this problem is to not hire people who do that sort of thing. Only way to distinguish between people who do that sort of thing and other people is to catch them in the act.

[QUOTE=gokiyono;45658898]He was obviously trying to spread Nazism through McDonalds food[/QUOTE] It was a stupid kid making a stupid joke because he thinks the Holocaust is funny. He got what he deserved.

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;45658929]It was a stupid kid making a stupid joke because he thinks the Holocaust is funny. He got what he deserved.[/QUOTE] Probably not because the holocaust itself was humorous, he could just have been taking the piss and thought that the Swastika was a good idea to draw, given that most people don't bother to disassemble their sandwiches.

[QUOTE=3picFail;45658917]At least it wasn't cum or spit. Or thousand island sauce.[/QUOTE] Why did you mention cum and spit twice?

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;45658929]It was a stupid kid making a stupid joke because he thinks the Holocaust is funny. He got what he deserved.[/QUOTE] Yes, he laughs at the suffering of so many people, obviously. Now you are just acting like the people who got buttmad over the dickwolves thing, or the Pool is Closed

[QUOTE=SBD;45658970]Why did you mention cum and spit twice?[/QUOTE] never mind, the joke went over my head, sorry

[QUOTE=HazzaHardie;45658835]wow this article is really insightful[/QUOTE] to be fair i've met more than enough people who didn't actually know what the swastika was and just assumed it was hitler's logo

[QUOTE=Atlascore;45658941]How does drawing a swastika equate to thinking the holocaust is funny?[/QUOTE] The swastika's the symbol of the Holocaust, dude. If you think "hey let's put the symbol of a genocide on a burger" is funny, you must find the genocide itself funny as well. If you don't think it's funny, don't make jokes about it.

Doing anything that can somehow be linked back to the Nazis gathers the assumption you are insensitive these days.

[quote]"Many people died because of that symbol and it’s not something that should be taken lightly. It’s not something that should be thrown around," Matice said.[/quote] confirmed: guns dont kill people, symbols do. having a swastika in your burger can [i]kill![/i]

Lol people defending people drawing a swastika at their job and thinking they shouldn't be fired for it

[QUOTE=gokiyono;45658978]Yes, he laughs at the suffering of so many people, obviously. Now you are just acting like the people who got buttmad over the dickwolves thing, or the Pool is Closed[/QUOTE] lmao go back to /b/ and take your 2008 ~internet troll~ attitude with you

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;45658991]The swastika's the symbol of the Holocaust, dude. If you think "hey let's put the symbol of a genocide on a burger" is funny, you must find the genocide itself funny as well. If you don't think it's funny, don't make jokes about it.[/QUOTE] To be fair a better symbol of the Holocaust in question would have to be the SS-Totenkopf insignia. That and the SS badges.

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;45658836]Good. If you don't take your job seriously you shouldn't have it. Wait, they put [I]butter[/I] on sandwiches there? Isn't it greasy enough already?[/QUOTE] Yeah, you'd better be an upstanding slop jockey or you can die in a hole for all I care.
