BUSTED! VP Gets McDonald’s Daily, Then WRITES UP Employee for Same Thing!

Picture this: you’re working at a manufacturing company that’s still open despite the global situation. You and your coworkers have been told that you can’t go offsite for lunches, nor can you order delivery or takeout. One morning, you decide to bring breakfast sandwiches for your team from McDonald’s . As you walk in, the VP of HR (who also happens to be the CEO’s wife) scolds you for going offsite for food. But wait! She’s holding a McDonald’s coffee cup in her hand, which she gets every day . Let’s dive into this story of workplace hypocrisy and see how it unfolds…
