Fire the one one who made the mistake? Fast food joints are staffed with
students and other people who do not have the skills for better employment
or who are looking for something better. They make mistakes, and when the
mistakes are brought to their attention they correct the order. In most
cases it is not the end of the world. Most people would gladly take a
cheeseburger instead of a hamburger and not say a word. If they fired
everyone who made a mistake they would lose al of their help. Most of those
places have a hard enough time keeping staff.


In this case, we are expected to believe that the plaintiff repeatedly
specified no cheese, but when he got home it was too dark to see that there
was cheese on it, though he was able to find the controls to turn on the TV
and DVD or VCR. The guy is a lame brain and his demise could only benefit
the gene pool.
