It's happened again. Months after I blogged about the Burger King employee fired for bathing in the sink, some KFC employees in the Northern California town of Anderson have allegedly done the same thing.
They stripped down to their underwear after hours and dove in. They took pictures and posted them on the internet. And they got fired.
Look, you have to understand, there's not a lot to do in Anderson for fun. The closest "city" is Redding, and Redding is more boring than Al Gore droning on about global warming. That makes Anderson more boring than last season's "Project Runway."

] spokesman says, "KFC has zero tolerance for violations of our operating standards, and our franchisee has taken immediate action by terminating the employees who were involved."
However, before everyone has a cow over how unsanitary that KFC must be, I'm sorry. I've raised two kids who've put things in their mouths which I will not describe here, and they lived. The ol' "five second rule" about food being edible if it's only on the floor for five seconds eventually became the "five minute rule" at my house. We lived. I'm all for being clean, and fast food chains should adhere to stringent standards, but maybe we should be more concerned about the number of calories in the "Boneless Variety Bucket" than whether someone swam in the sink after hours.
More pictures of the girls at play here.
