Some of you might remember an incident at Subway in Dunedin earlier this year. A young woman who worked there was fired in after management accused her of stealing a free staff drink after she shared it with her friend. They had her arrested and charged with theft. The news traveled widely, there was a protest and even a bloggers’ boycott of Subway. Thankfully, in the end, the police decided not to prosecute.
So no more drink-sharing. But now it looks like humour is off the Subway menu too.
That’s interesting, when my mate worked for subway they were given instructions on how many olive slices (by number!) were to go on an order. It’s tough being a fastfood giant…
