Burger King Employee Frazzled by Three Customers

Montreal-Burger King employee Sheila Jones was overwhelmed this morning when the line of customers at the heavily-trafficked Burger King in Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport swelled to three customers.

The incident took place around 7:30 p.m. just after Jones began her night shift, which usually involved limited interaction with people and minimal effort on her part.

“I usually work the evening hour and it is not too busy. But this, I’ve never seen anything like this,” Jones said from underneath a blanket administered by airport security.

The first two customers wait time exceeded eight minutes as they watched the young employee attempt to blend a milk shake, package a small order fries and take the final customer’s order.

“She dropped my Whopper on the ground so I had to wait another five minutes while they prepared a second one.” New Yorker Gerald Richie said. “I think she [Jones] might be better working in a low-volume environment.”

Jones is recovering at Wakefield Mill Inn Spa in Quebec for the week.
