MARRERO, La. (AP) — A man is accused of pointing a gun at the manager of a Popeyes in Louisiana during a dispute over condiments.

NOLA.com/The Times-Picayune reports 59-year-old Earl Jethroe of Marrero walked into the eatery Friday, ordered a meal and apparently took issue with the condiments provided by employees.

At some point, the arrest reports says, Jethroe threw his chicken across the counter, pulled a pistol from his waistband and pointed it at the manager. Jethroe didn't fire the weapon, and no one was hurt.

Sometimes they like to charge extra for each condiment.

Sometimes they load up your bag with dozens of unwanted condiments.

Go figure.

Earl Haffler wouldn't have let anyone get away with cheating him on condiments. But he wouldn't have wasted perfectly good chicken, either.

I think there are a lot of bad drugs in Chicken.

It isn't like it was Chick-fil-A sauce.

I have been known to turn around and go back for that.

Only once but that was the only time they forgot to put it in the bag. Or that I forgot to order it. That is possible. But in any case all I did was drive back and ask for a packet and they gave it to me. And a spare packet in case I forgot again.

The outlaw was going to kill the manager, and was working up to the exact moment he wanted to kill him. Take that to the bank.

This the second to time in a week this has happened where a manager was assaulted over condiments. There is an entitlement rot in this society that runs deep.

I think he should have settled for the ketchup or teriyaki sauce and gone home?

The other was a beat down on a McD’s employee for not giving ketchup. One would think it’d be cheaper to automatically include a few free condiments with each meal.
