FLOOR COLLAPSES AT CHURCH'S FRIED CHICKEN IN TEXAS

Three fast food workers were injured at a Church’s Fried Chicken in Livingston, Texas, after the floor caved in. The fryer tipped over, sending scalding hot grease everywhere. The three women dropped an estimated three-and-a-half to four feet down. The employees were badly burned, including one woman, Erica Acevedo, who has burns over 50 percent of her body. Quick-thinking customer Gary Bryant, who was at the counter with his friend ordering food at the time, launched across the counter and went to grab one of the employees from the hole. Bryant, 65, and his friend Margaret Henderson managed to pull two of the workers to safety but another was lodged between appliances. The floor collapse was reportedly caused by an apparent chasm underneath the floor. The Livingston fire chief said the incident is under investigation and OSHA is involved.
* I always imagined the Gateway to Hell would be at an Arby’s.
* Oh, what am I thinking. Nothing’s ever hot at Arby’s.
* Could have been worse. Could have been built over an ancient Indian burial ground.
* Wow, and it wasn’t like this job didn’t already suck before this happened.
* Hot grease. If only it had been an ice cream shop.
* At least they got hurt for something that really matters to most Americans.
* Sure, our soldiers are more important, but these people got wounded bringing us fast food – and that means they’re heroes too.
* They’re a different kind of soldier, fighting for our right to get fatter in the War on Obesity.
* If you think the floor dropped wait ’till you see what happens to their profits after the lawsuit.
