McDonald's ordered to pay ex-employee $17,500 for 65 pounds he gained on the job in Brazil BY Meena Hartenstein DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER Thursday, October 28th 2010 A McDonald's employee who gained 65 pounds on the job will get a hefty settlement from the fast food giant, thanks to a judge's ruling this week. The Brazilian ex-franchise manager will get $17,500 from McDonald's for his massive weight gain, according to The Associated Press, which occured over his 12-year employment at the restaurant chain. The man, whose identity has not been released, sued the company for the pounds he packed on, arguing that he felt pressured to eat the food every day as part of his job description. He said McDonald's regularly sent "mystery clients" to conduct spot checks on the restaurant and report back on the food, so he had to make sure it was up to par. McDonald's also gave the employees free lunches, he said, which increased his daily caloric intake. Judge Joao Ghisleni Filho said McDonald's could appeal the ruling, and the company's Brazilian headquarters told the AP it was "weighing its legal options." Famous for its calorie-laden Big Macs and fries, McDonald's has been the target of weight-related suits many times. On Wednesday, a Manhattan judge ruled against a group of plaintiffs who wanted to file a joint lawsuit, which alleged that McDonald's food was a cause of childhood obesity. The judge ruled that the suit, which has been kicking around the courts since it was filed in 2002, must be dealt with individually rather than as a group action. "We are extremely pleased with the court’s decision," McDonald's spokeswoman Heidi Barker said in a statement released to Bloomberg News. "As we have maintained throughout these proceedings, it is unfair to blame McDonald’s for this complex societal problem." http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/2010/10/28/2010-10-28_mcdonalds_ordered_to_pay_exemployee_17500_for_65_pounds_he_gained_on_the_job_in_.html#ixzz13lWVTFDv

^ Since when do you crack whips? I thought you just put coal in stockings. :uhoh:

Hello there

Welcome!

It is actually used by doctors, so it does mean something http://www.lemondrop.com/2010/10/27/facebook-autism-test/ It's only meant to be a screening test, not for diagnosis.

If you don't want to take the quiz that's been going around on Facebook, you can take it here instead: http://glennrowe.net/BaronCohen/AutismSpectrumQuotient/AutismSpectrumQuotient.aspx Surprisingly I only scored a 19, I thought I would score higher on the spectrum; I suppose that's a good thing? :thinking:

^ I'm sorry, but if they actually perform Lost+, I'll gag.

^ Oh, but Highgate Cemetery is so purrrrrttyy :wacky: You guys should go to the Winchester pub, that would be perfect! :awesome:

I'm not quite sure how to describe this picture

I'm guessing that was something custom-made by the band, so I doubt anyone here would have access to it. :\

Hmm, yes, but did she READ the directions before she did that? :whistle:

Hello and welcome! :nice:

All this talk makes me wanna go to tha Winnnchestahhh

But the Oracle confirmed they were :uhoh: Well, we know they were on the set at some point, since they were in the last scene at least.

Awww that's too bad, I wish I could be there! Make sure you post some pictures!

Those things are in the news so much over here, I guess they are really bad in New York. Apparently it's even affecting the "dating scene"; people are starting to ask prospective dates if they've ever had bedbugs! :wtf: And they don't just live in beds, although that's where they feed at night. Those things get everywhere. My understanding is they are hard to kill; bug spray probably won't get all of them (and if you don't get all of them, it's pointless because they will just mulitply again). From what I've seen on the news, the best way to kill them is to have someone come in and turn your entire house into a super-hot sauna. Here's some info, hopefully this helps http://studenttravel.about.com/u/ua/healthystudentholidays/how_to_kill_bedbugs_ua.htm

Even though I REALLY DON'T like this picture of Will, it's an appropriate nice "page 2 again?!?" picture. The other threads in this section must be really busy if the Will thread ends up on page 2 almost every day! Sheesh!

Something endling in 0.42 isn't geeky! :awesome:

I'm 99.42% sure this is Chris, but I haven't spotted a picture/screen shot with Jonny. Has anyone ID'd the Jonny zombie?

:awesome: Yay! looks yummy
