McDonald’s customer flips out, slugs worker for touching lid of his drink

This guy really flipped his lid.

An irate McDonald’s customer in Boston got so fired up when an employee at the fast food restaurant touched the lid of his drink that he slugged the hapless worker in the face, police said Sunday.

The fast food fisticuffs happened around 7 p.m. Saturday at the South Station transit depot where the unnamed 34-year-old patron punched the worker “several times” over the apparent indiscretion, Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority Transit Police said on X on Sunday.

The suspect was cuffed and taken to MBTA police headquarters for booking, while the employee was treated at the scene for his injuries, the department said.

Police did not immediately release further details of the incident.

According to McDonald’s rules for staffers, employees are required to wear gloves and regularly wash their hands at least every hour if they work in the food prep area at the chain eatery’s outlets.

Earlier this month, another McDonald’s customer from New York’s Rockland County sued the fast food giant after he claimed a slice of cheese on a burger nearly killed him.

Charles Olsen, who has a severe milk allergy, said he asked for a plain patty but ended up with an errant slice of cheese on his meal that knocked him for a loop.

However, Olsen told The Post he still likes grabbing a bite at his neighborhood McDonald’s.
