I don't get it...why did they think that this was even remotely funny? It makes the guy bathing look like a complete idiot. I would be so embarassed if that was my kid.

Burger King just sounds disgusting to me now...and it kind of did before I read this anyway.

There's a BK right across from my work. I stop there occasionally, although less often than I used to. My boss said he wouldn't eat there though, he said it was dirty - and I'd trust him on that.

Yuck, yuck and double-yuck! And, I thought that freaky Burger King in the commercials was the worst thing to come out of BK. Not any longer!

Wonder if he thought this would look good on his resume. "I enjoy taking an occasional bath, no matter where I am."

The one with Darius Rucker is still one of the best ever.

PicBuddy is an unknown quantity at this point
Hahah! How stupid. Looks like something that a good number of my co-workers may have done when we were teens. And -criminal charges-??? Oh mercy, they need to just relax. There are no "victims", no crime and nothing will come of anything. And if there was no Internet capable of quick movies, no one would have ever known of the prank.

If you actually read the website where the video originated from, it was the kids birthday and the prank was a dare. The kids that worked there would do dare pranks on their birthdays. So what...

Last time I checked, food for human consumption is not prepared in a dish sink, and eateries have separate sinks for dishes than what is used like to rinse lettuce. And even if I had known the brainiac had been in the sink, I would still eat there. Doesn't bother me what he did....

We have two Burger Kings here and they vary considerably. One is in an older part of town and the two times I tried it, the bread was not fresh. It's actually one inside a gas station. Plus it looks old and dirty. Even the people that work there look grungy. So, they won't get a third visit from me. The other one is brand new, just opened two months ago. Each time we have gone there, my favorite, a bacon cheese whopper with onion rings, has never ceased to be totally excellent, with fresh bread.

I'm a meat eater and now and then I need a thumping dripping burger. If I'm too lazy to make it myself, you can find me at Burger King, or seeking out the second option, a 100% sirloin bacon cheeseburger at Jack in the Box. Those are great. (about twice a month that is) ......

I miss being a teenager when we could screw around at work without ending up on Youtube, and when I could eat two whoppers in a row to go with my Pizza! Invincible! hehehe

Pretty stupid way to loose one's job. But then again, if he was still working at BK at his age, he's probably not a Rhodes Scholar.

BK Employee Takes Bath in Kitchen Sink at Restaurant!!

XENIA, OHIO - Did anyone hear abaout this one?

A man who worked at a Burger King restaurant in Ohio decided to take a bath in the stainless steel kitchen sinke there! One or more also decide to follow suit while other employees watched and did nothing!!

The heath dept and Burger King found out about it and the guy was fired. The heath dept is investigating the incident. The other employees involved were also displined.

The sink as well as the utensils were all santitized twice. The video of him in the sink was shown on the news. It was also said to be on YouTube.com.

What is this world coming to?!! It's bad enough that there are all facing and having rough times with the food being poisoned, and now THIS!!
