The employee who handed the couple the bag of money realized her mistake and followed the couple back to their home. They returned the money and received a hearty ‘thank you’ from the manager.

“I worked in a McDonald’s that was between two rival high schools. One night after a basketball game between the two schools, a bunch of kids from the schools come to my McDonald’s. We took about 100 orders in 10 minutes, and once pretty much everyone had gotten their food, a fight broke out between two kids after someone threw a 32-ounce fruit punch, which also stained the ceiling for an entire year. The cook tried breaking it up before the cops showed up and escorted all these kids out of the restaurant,” a McDonald’s employee told Cosmopolitan.
