I even see that as bs. My friend worked for BK back in the 80's when they were still decent and tacitly the manager would stop over making of food but he erred on the side of over and they took stuff home and it was a nice little perk. Now granted if its abused to the point they are like reselling the stuff then yeah you gotta nail them. It just blows me away how bad minimum wage jobs have gotten and how many regular jobs have been pushed closer and closer to min wage.
