KUALA LUMPUR: A female employee of a KFC outlet became angry and showed her middle finger at a group of obstinate students after they refused to heed her warning against joining tables so they could sit together.
The incident at the KFC outlet in Ampang, was captured on video and believed to have been uploaded by one of the students, accompanied by a brief note, the Sin Chew daily reported.
According to the note, about 20 students had visited the outlet after their extra co-curricular activities in school.
Wishing to sit together, some of them started joining the tables but were advised against doing this by the female employee on duty.
“She told us that this would inconvenience other customers. She later shouted at us, asking us to rearrange the tables and clear the bones and serviettes before leaving,” the note read.
However according to The Hype Media, the employee lost her cool because the students had ignored her advice and continued to join the tables anyway, at which point she said, “It’s better that you guys eat outside.”
However seeing as no one budged, the employee picked up her mobile phone and began recording the group, who in retaliation, whipped out a mobile phone of their own and began recording her instead.
It is understood that in her frustration at being recorded by them, the employee showed them her middle finger.
Meanwhile KFC Malaysia’s senior vice-president Ling Mee Jiuan posted in the restaurant’s Facebook page that the employee had been suspended and that an internal investigation was being carried out.
