Was all-you-can-eat part of his compensation package, or was he embezzling from his employer?
I noticed that too and was amazed that he would so carelessly admit to such moral laxity. But a little googling reveals that quite a few people who have worked at Baskin-Robbins claim that free ice cream was part of the job.
I don’t know about B-R but in high school I worked for a “Farrell’s” ice cream parlor (anyone been to one? they used to be growing chain but then were bought and sold by Marriott and I don’t know what happened to them).
Anyway, at Farrell’s there was absolutely a strict “no freebies” policy (we did get employee discounts but no freebies). This policy was so strict that anytime a sundae, etc. was made wrong by accident the policy was it had to be dumped in the trash, and the manager often did it personally if he was nearby (idea was that you don’t want employees creating any “accidents” for their own consumption).
SO, yes, it would be interesting to find out whether Obama Hussein was stealing from his employer, or buying all that excessive ice cream consumption legitimately......
As a teen, my mom worked at See’s Candy. Free candy was part of the job, but she said most employees took full advantage the first week or so, and then got candied out and left it alone from there on.
