A Texas restaurant worker lost his job after trying to expose a health violation at his workplace, but the internet was not entirely on his side. The employee, who goes by the username Lonerofanonlyheart5 on Reddit, shared his story in the r/legal community. He said he was fired after going public with footage of a leak in his kitchen.
The problem was outside water dripping directly onto a grill used for cooking burgers and breakfast items. The employee said the restaurant owner ignored his requests to get it fixed, so he reported the issue to both the health department and OSHA. He then went a step further and posted a warning online, including video evidence of the water leaking onto the cooking surface.
