ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (WTVD) -- McDonald's worker Yasmine James remains on leave after a brawl with a customer, allegedly about a straw, was caught on camera.
The viral video shows the customer, Daniel Taylor, reach over the counter and grab James by the shirt. James responded by punching Taylor several times. He is facing battery charges.
James said she's not physically hurt, but emotionally scarred after being left to defend herself.
"I didn't have any control over my body when he grabbed me," James said. "Like, I'm scared. Like, why are you grabbing me? I just didn't understand his intentions."
James said she had to call 911 after the attack because the manager didn't know what to do.
James has hired an attorney and they are now working to hold McDonald's accountable.

McWhopper, the happiest place on earth where the violent unhinged work while the hungry violent dim wits eat their happy happy meals.
If McD’s paid for a hot cup of coffee which is the holy grail of lawsuits, then the straw will be the second..
Wait.
You can get throat cancer from that?
*Gulp*
Good job Jasmine! Now, make the jerk/perp AND Mickie D’s pay.
That guy is twice as tall as she is. What a jerk.
OK buddy, you win the internet. Shut ‘er down.
A ‘Straw man’ argument.
I’m serious, that’s what Douglas said. He got throat cancer (I think HPV or something) from eating out at the Y.
What extraordinarily stupid employees. No one could think to call 911?
The alcohol AND smoking together are much more likely the cause.
I believe it has to do with GOV. Scary.
“The way he caught his throat cancer? Well, let’s just say it wasn’t due to smoking. It was due to the oral thingy one does to women.”
“Who would want to touch a girls butt, that’s where cooties come from!” Bart Simpson
That's it.
No more box lunches for me.

Like is there a quota for like how many likes you use like in a sentence?
I clicked in here curious.
Saw the picture and became sympathetic.
“James has hired an attorney and they are now working to hold McDonald’s accountable.”
Never mind. All credibility lost.
If the pic made you sympathetic you should see the video.
That guy needs a major ass whooping.
No doubt, but that’s not my point. If she’s suing McDonald’s, I have no sympathy for her.
I got your point. Don’t agree with it but I got it.
No employee helped her. No one knew what to do. They put her on leave.
Great support for an employee who was attacked on the job.
None of which on its face supports suing the employer.
Are you privy to the internals on her being put on leave?
My post #35 didn’t say anything about the lawsuit or your comment on the lawsuit. It wasn’t my point.
But thanks for dragging me into it anyway.
Apologies. Your post #37 appeared to justify it.
