Drizzling extra chocolate on ice cream is apparently considered “gross misconduct” at a McDonald’s in West Wales. After 19-year-old Sarah Finch gave a McFlurry a little somethin’ extra (her co-worker ordered it and asked her to “make it a nice one” — aw), the fast-food chain accused her of giving away free food and dismissed her. Finch admits she was heavy-handed with the topping, but come on! Sucks for McDonald’s because Finch just settled out of court for £3,000 (about $4,900). [Daily Mail UK]
