Vikings running back Adrian Peterson recently found himself out and needing to use the bathroom at 3 in the morning. So he went to a McDonald’s drive-through window.

An assistant manager saw Peterson, recognized him and let him in. But soon after that she was fired, apparently because her bosses found out that she let someone into the restaurant after hours.

“He’s a public figure. . . I know him better than some of the maintenance people that come in and out,” the woman told Consumerist. “I never thought in a million years that that decision was going to cost me my career.”

If it never occurred to her that she could get fired for letting someone use the bathroom, she apparently isn’t a fan of Curb Your Enthusiasm, on which Larry David once got a nanny fired for letting him inside to use the bathroom during an outdoor party.

However, there’s a happy ending: After the media caught wind of the story, McDonald’s gave the woman her job back.

Did you consider that a Night Manager at McD's was the best she could do?

I would consider someone in a management position, even at McD's, a career.

I have a friend in Liberty that is the assistant store manager of McD's. Sometimes he has to do overnight. He gets paid really well, and in 2 years he will most likely be a store manager somewhere in KCMO, and get paid very well for his work. He is only 25 too.

As much as some people want to knock it, it is a career.

This...people like to look down on these jobs, but somebody has to do it right? We all have eaten there @ one time or another. Nothing shameful about it.

you guys are pretty shallow...

I bet a manager at McDonald's can make a lot more than a lot of the assholes on this board...

I see a different thread every day where someone is unemployed...

Time to stop making fun of people with jobs...any job is a fine job in this economy.

But this is ChiefsPlanet...where everyone has a million dollars, a super model girlfriend, and is flat cak'n.

Meh.

I have it easy...I'm overpaid for the mindless work I do. I'm sure a McDonald's job is much tougher/much shittier work than what I do.
