One LA employee just couldn't take it anymore
A disgruntled Glendale In-N-Out employee went for a true double-double against his former boss earlier this week, disabling the man’s car by putting sugar in the gas tank and hiding out with a few loaded guns in what police are calling an armed ambush.
NBC Los Angeles has some on-the-scene details of the emerging incident, which took place around 2 a.m. Monday morning. The alleged attacker, Eric Bloss, was a recent UC Berkeley college graduate whose former roommate says had become disillusioned with his work flipping burgers, and believed that his manager at the Glendale In-N-Out was reprimanding him unfairly.
And with all that pressure to perform, what with the new competing Shake Shack coming soon, it seems the work environment became too much for Bloss. At some point, the 23-year old hatched the self-styled revenge plot against his former manager.
The "imminent" attack, as described by police, was foiled when a passerby spotted Bloss tampering with a car in the parking lot (this was the cartoonishly villainous Phase One: Sugar In The Gas Tank step). That witness tipped off the right people, and Bloss was found not long after (Phase Two: Hide With Guns) waiting for the In-N-Out manager to head for his car after a long shift. Thankfully, the entire plot fell apart before anyone was hurt.
NBC Los Angeles says the suspect Eric Bloss, an Eagle Rock native, is currently being held on $250,000 bail in an LA County jail, where it’s hard to imagine the food is as good as In-N-Out's.
UC Berkeley graduate, flipping burgers.
Was his major “Ethnic studies” or _______?
College grads these days are pathetic.Can’t even plot a one-hit murder properly.
another government-school graduate who can’t handle even a simple job?

good on the passerby who took action... love In-n-Out!
Liberal teachings at UC Berkeley
An Obama success story
They have a killer burger?
OK, I give up - how do you put sugar in the gas tank of a modern car with a locking gas tank door?
But couldn't think well enough to just get a different job?
Meanwhile, Matthew Apperson actually stalks and fires a shot at George Zimmerman’s head, says he “hopes he got him this time”, and is let out on a $35,000 bond....
Some animals are more equal than others.
That seems to be the least of his problems.
...whose former roommate says had become disillusioned with his work flipping burgers, and believed that his manager at the Glendale In-N-Out was reprimanding him unfairly.
One can only imagine this is one of those delicate doilies who has grown up in the current vogue of everyone is a winner and now, trigger warnings. Criticize one of these creatures and they’ll fly off the handle. They’ve. never been criticized in their life.
If they paid them $15 an hour and allowed them marry we wouldn’t have them trying to kill the boss.
oh please a bugger flipper flipper just pry it open
According to the Telegraph, his major was geology!
Greg Gutfeld on Fox News is a Berkeley graduate. I’m guessing he makes between $5 and $10 million dollars a year.
A local restaurateur who recently stopped doing deliveries mentioned recently that a half dozen former delivery ...persons... have filed a class-action suit again the business.
Wow. Shoulda been possible to find a job in a STEM field. Is there a superabundance of H1-B geologists, I wonder?
