Chicago Woman Born With Tiny Arms Denied McDonald's Service for Using Feet

Monday, July 02, 2007

A woman has filed a lawsuit against a McDonald's franchise, claiming that employees in two suburban Chicago restaurants refused to serve her because a birth defect forces her to use her feet as hands.

Dawn Larson was born with Holt-Oram Syndrome, which left her with diminutive hands just six inches from her shoulder, according to a report Monday in the Chicago Sun-Times.

I really don't think anyone is going to defend the McDonalds staff's IQ or actions in this case :(

Yes, I know mental deficiencies can be a handicap as well as a physical deficiency, but it doesn't stop me from wanting to bang the head of the McDonald employee against the counter and say "HELLO???!!!".

Me too Eki.

Although I'm still pretty sure the message would not be understood :mark:

I guess it just comes down to what you get for your minimum wage "Do you want Fries with that?" kind of job.....
