There was a fire today at work. Everyone had to leave. McDonalds corp installed a new and improved deep fryer that cleans itself. Only it gets clogged by the filter making the oil darker than motor oil and having all the bits and pieces get stuck. Mcdonalds managers can't hire maintenance employees to clean it so... Looks like they paid for their mistakes.

Luckily nobody was hurt. The manager knew what she was doing. Took it seriously.
 
No shocker there. McDonald's franchise owners/management are the biggest deadbeats with equipment maintenance. They only call me when refrigerators and ice machines break, and its usually when they send the friolator cleaning guy to try cleaning and doing preventive maintenance on the refrig equipment. And best of all, they always blame us, because we were the last ones to touch them. Um yeah... Anyway I'm so glad my boss cut ties with Mcds, Wendy's, au bon pain etc....

SF a perfect example of penny wise and pound stoooopid, and shows that cheating maintenance on heavily used kitchen equipment really does pay off!! Glad nobody got hurt!

So this little guy shows up this morning and he must have over estimated his mad duck skills cuz he wasn't big enough to get himself back out of the pool! Fast forward about 45 min and a few crazy failed attempts at rescue... A little creative engineering in the form of a duck ramp made out of floating chair cushions and a down spout run off 😝 he just walked er waddled himself out to safety!

That's scary. I will say that there are people that think they have seen lightning strike in close proximity, and those that know they saw it. It is a world of difference between the two. I'm glad you are OK huh.

I also am glad you are OK!

Many years ago lightning hit a tree 20 feet from my bedroom window. I woke up feeling like the bed moved several feet across the floor. I also had the honor of cleaning up branches from the other side of the house! :(

Another thing that is interesting is the reaction of people you are talking to on the radio when a bolt hits about 50 feet from the car! :eek:
