It is totally disgusting, that someone would do that
to another, that employee was one sicko. He should be
fired. If I was the manager he would have been fired
immediately.The cop and his family should get 200k, not a measely 40k.

Cop to cashier, "This taco tastes funny"

Cashier, "I''m sorry officer we forgot to spit in it"

Cop, "That''s more like it"

Haven''t you seen the movie "Waiting". This is the entire plot line, what goes on in the kitchens and back-rooms of restaurants run and staffed by teens and twenty-somethings or people with no other marketable skills.

I have always been fairly decent to wait staff because of friens/family who have worked in the field at one time or another however; people who have posted here are correct. If you don''t like what you get, be very careful how you send it back and be prepared for what you get brought back to you.

A lot of how you are treated is a reflection of how you behave. Not all people in the kitchens are this demented.

I would hope that the local police department now provides "special patrols" for that eatery - complete with FULL safety checks of ALL vehicles going there, checks of legal status, drug and alcohol checks, etc - on a four-time-a-day basis ... until the place goes under. I have NEVER seen a vehicle that could not be ticketed or impounded for SOMETHING.

Urine and spit?

What did they order?

Think cops should stick to donuts.

Do NOT ever send your food back to the kitchen because it isn''t the way you like it. Eat it the way it is, let it show in the tip and then never go back to that restaurant.

If you send it back, the cook is going to be ticked off and who knows what will be done to your food prior to you getting it back.

So the meth head in the story gets sick and goes to the ER and ends vomiting on a nurse or doctor. I guess he should feel he has it coming if they "delay" his treatment for a while. Or maybe the cop will take his time responding to his 911 call or the ambulance driver might drive a little slower after his heart attack.

The idiots that do this might want to think ahead a little but then again maybe that is the reason they are pushing chalupas

The pathetic jerks that were involved in this didn''t evaporate. They are still on planet earth and were never punished for their actions. In fact , they think it''s all so funny. Where do they work now? in cafeteria of the hospital where your mother is having surgery? Your kids school ? Not so funny when you give it a little thought.

Funny when the cops mistake your house and raid it tearing the place apart no one holds them to account for their actions or gives the victims of the raid any money for their trauma incurred due to the police or for repairs. The just say oh well we followed protocol and the tip turned out to be wrong or we had the wrong house. No big deal right?
