Hats off to Office Humor Blog for spotting this story in the South Florida Sun Sentinel.
Apparently Subway waiter Juan Canales stopped a carjacker who tried to take a woman's Honda CRV at knifepoint.
Canales was working in the 84 Thai Food restaurant in Fort Lauderdale, Florida when he heard Massiel Marquardt screaming for help.
Canales foiled and subdued the attacker, but then things it all went pear-shaped:
Canales, who worked at 84 Thai Food for three weeks, returned to work after spending an hour talking to police and the media. Once the lunch shift ended, his boss fired him."The owner got belligerent" about all the attention his scuffle with the carjacker generated, Canales said.
The owner, listed in corporate records as Sathaporn Yosagraiof Fort Lauderdale, could not be reached for comment despite two calls to the restaurant and one to his home.
I mean, really, How shabby is that? If we were running a restaurant we'd take him on before you could say "knife".
