An assistant manager at McDonald's was fired after allowing Minnesota Vikings star Adrian Peterson to use the bathroom while the restaurant was closed.

While working the late-night drive-thru shift at 3 a.m., a female employee encountered a man standing outside the window who asked to come inside and use the restroom. After a little while, she realized it was the popular Minnesota Vikings star and opened the door for him to come inside and use the facilities. (The seating area at the restaurant is normally closed during the late-night hours.)

One week later, the mother of three was fired for the offense.

"He's a public figure... I know him better than some of the maintenance people that come in and out," she told The Consumerist. "I never thought in a million years that that decision was going to cost me my career."
Jeez, McDonald's. It's not like she was letting in Brett Favre or Bryant McKinnie. He's Adrian Peterson, the most famous Vikings player of all! If you can't do a solid for AD, who can you?
There's a silver lining at the end of these golden arches, though: After the local media reported on the woman's termination, McDonald's gave her back her old job.

Let this be a lesson to all you fast-food employees keen on handing out favors to famous athletes. It doesn't matter if Tom Brady walks through those doors; he has to pay $0.39 for supersizing just like everyone else.

Lol, funny you.

[D3 Mighty Ducks]

I would of done the same thing.

[stealthyburrito]

did she blow him too??

[Ace_of_Spades]

AP should have given her some money for getting sacked.

[jjgold]

great story!!

[dwendling]

that's so stupid

[Jesus Is Lord]

She was probably breaking security policies. Now if another manager lets John Doe into a restaurant, that person can sue the company for being inconsistant.

[keyboarding]

Funniest part is when she thinks of being an assistant manager at McDonald's a "career".

Standard treatment for minimum wage workers.

Would the world be in an uproar if a $3 an hour lettuce picker let Nick Nolte shit in the lettuce patch, then got canned.

People get fired for stupid shit every day, by a person who makes $40 more a week than them, just so that person can feel good about themselves for 30 seconds.

Well if McD's was open what's the problem?? Who goes to McD's for anything besides to take a piss?

[stealthyburrito]

the interior restaurant was not open, it was 3 am. drive thru only at that time.

Would she get fired if he pissed through the drive through window?

[blackbeSSt]

i guess popeye's wasn't open at 3am huh ap?

[vividjohn45]

the district manager of Mcdonald's after the termination, and at the neighborhood Bar and Grill to catch the game

silver lining? She's being punished further by getting that job back.

[maersksealand]

makes me wonder wtf he was doing at 3am near a McDonalds, desperate to take a shiat ? Can't believe with all their money those athletes don't have a toillet installed in their Escalade and they need to sneak in a fast food restaurant to take a shiat, like the rest of us.

[warriorfan707]

career???

[BestPlay2day]

At least she got her job back, bullshit that she was fired at first.

[bruce_outside]

hope she got an autograph. that's a nice thing to do.

Post of the day. Wouldn't eat at that place let alone any fast food.

[GELATINOUS CUBE]

Right, i guess i'm saying why is mcdonald's drive thru open at 3 am and not the bathrooms?? There bathrooms should be open all night, screw the meatburgers.

Also why didn't a.p. Just stop and take a whizz in the parking lot???

It's not like he can't afford a $90 ticket.

[GELATINOUS CUBE]

Illini, you know what i'm saying???

Mcdonalds doesn't serve anything digestable, i usually grab it when i'm in a hurry, take a few bites and then puke it back up or throw it away. I don't know any fast food joint that is actually edible.

[frostno98]

It's hard enough to just to get a job nowaday's, and you get fired from you shitty @ss job because you let an NFL superstar recognized in the 50 states take a dump. Tell's every thing that's **** up about society today.

[GELATINOUS CUBE]

HE PROBABLY COULD HAVE AFFORDED A DUMPING IN PUBLIC TICKET TOO...

WOULDN'T HELP HIS IMAGE THOUGH..

[purecarnagge]

actually just a FYI, having your own store as a manager is pretty reasonably paying. Anything above that is loaded. My buddy franchises a few.

[stealthyburrito]

Would she get fired if he pissed through the drive through window?

i dunno but it would be AWESOME if she'd let him.

[gamble]

that is a good question, what he was doing there at 3 am looking to take a leak

[MJFtheGenius]

nothing new

AP could not hold it

[samdapatriotsfan]

that's fukkin ridiculous. i hope the manager that fired her gets run over by a car walking home from work in the next couple days.

No kidding, I mean why would anyone want to put such a substance in their body...

[eberetta1]

Sad that common sense is no longer allowed in the workplace. God forbid, if AP would have held up the place. What for a few non-perishable happy meals.
