An eighteen year old employee at a McDonald in Kentucky was called into the office by the manager. This was the beginning of a horrible ordeal for the young employee. The manager was on the phone with someone claiming to be a police officer who had just accused the young employee of stealing a purse.
The manager was instructed by the voice on the phone to take the girl's cell phone, car keys, and clothes. And yes, the girl followed orders. For three hours she sit naked in the small office with only a dirty apron. She was humiliated, forced to strip, spanked, and then to perform a sexual act in the back office, during her work day. All because a voice on the phone claiming to be a police officer gave these bizarre instructions.
Sounds like a hoax. Yes, it is but it all happened and was captured on video tape. The young employee is suing McDonald's for $200 million dollars which they should at least pay her $100 million of it. But the man arrested for making the phone call was sit free.
It's a crazy story, but it leads me to a serious question. How safe are our teenagers in the workplace? About 80 or more of these hoax calls has taken place and many of the calls has resulted in a strip search. One customer was actually asked to strip search an employee. Considering the fact that many teenagers work part-time jobs, what are employers doing to ensure the safety of their teenage employees? As silly as it sounds, I think that parents need to know educate their teenagers on their rights. Their right not to be strip searched and what to do if anyone asks them to take off their clothes. It's a crazy world but because of this story I'm just gonna say no to McDonalds. You ask why?
1) If there store managers are stupid enough to conduct a strip search and not hang up the phone and call police. Than they are not smart enough to cook my burgers.
2) The fact that McDonalds is on the defense and not wanting to pay this young girl who clearly did nothing wrong. That is a company that I don't want to support.
I guess my last question is where are all the tree hugging, peace loving bleeding heart liberals whom believe in a persons right not to be sexually assaulted? Where is Michael Moore? Where is her Senator? Where is Jeese Jackson and Al Sharpton? Where is the outrage at McDonalds from the public? Where are all the Christians who boycotted Target because of they wouldn't allow those annoying bell ringers last year? Where is the concern? Because if this isn't a civil liberties and civil rights case, I don't know what is?
I guess everyone is praying with the terrorist imams at the airport.
Feel free to contact McDonalds and let them know how you feel,
their number is 1-800-244-6227
