Burger King: worker says he peed his pants – 05/19/2023 – Market

An employee of the burger chain Burger King said on Thursday afternoon (18) that he was prevented from leaving the kiosk where he works to use the bathroom, which would have caused him to pee his pants. He works at a unit installed in a mall in Aracaju (Sergipe).

José Vinicius Santos disclosed the incident on his account on the social network Instagram. “I want to report the inevitable here,” he said in the video. “Because if I leave the kiosk, I’ll be warned. On the second, I’ll be suspended, and on the third it’s just cause,” he said.

The network employee also reported having received a warning the day before for having left the workplace at the end of the day. “I arrived at 8:20 am and knocked [o ponto] 4:40 pm. I left on my time and got a suspension.”

“This here is an injustice and it cannot happen,” said Santos, in the video that went viral a few hours after it was published.

In the text that accompanied the video, he said that the situation “seems like a joke”.

“I can’t leave the kiosk because if I don’t get a warning, I already received one yesterday because I didn’t want to work overtime, exactly, I got a warning because I didn’t work overtime, this is revolting, totally unacceptable,” he wrote.

In a statement, Burger King said it deeply regrets what happened and said it does not tolerate any kind of disrespect.

“We inform you that the people involved in the case have been removed while we investigate all the information. We are providing all the support and accompanying the employee. We have in our culture the practice of respect for people in any environment and we will not fail to take all the appropriate measures. “
