Sonic Worker Injured During Robbery Denied Benefits Claim

Fast Food and Convenience Stores/Business's are not well known for pay and benefits packages of any sort, but "we" thousands of citizens, daily, use these "Places" and purchase their goods, when's the last time anyone had the courtesy to tell and employee(s) sincerely "Thank You Very Much for Your Service and Working There?" How many even think about helping them out what they are over-whelmed with rush hour crowds, by picking up or cleaning up around the drink or coffee counters, dropped napkins and straws all over the floor etc.? The percentage is so pathetically few, its sickening. It's the; "oh, that's not my job," I'm too busy(caught up in my own self-absorbed interest)," "if they don't ljke it, they should find a different job(imagine if each and everyone of those people quit today, the nation would be near crippled)," etc. Some Serious "Food- For-Thought" People. Pitch-in, Help Out, Act Like a Nation of People Whom Once Had: I N T E G R I T Y. It's "we" the people whom are "our' Brothers and Sisters Keepers. Put your shopping carts in the rack too. This disabled vet, does all he can to help these folks out and leave tips when possible too.

Obviously there benefits are as good as there food.

No good deed goes unpunished.

idiotic workmans comp applies to everyone check your facts.

They are legally obligated to pay him benifits and medical bills no matter what even if the injured worker´s negligence caused the injury look below shows part of the TEXAS Workers´ Compensation Law

Workers´ Compensation Basics
The Texas workers´ compensation system is the method by which covered workers are compensated for work-related injuries or illnesses. An employer´s insurance company or certified self-insurance plan pays scheduled benefits for work-related injuries, even if the injured worker´s negligence contributed to the accident. Texas law does not require workers´ compensation. However, your customers may require you to carry it.

You smoke the weed you pay the consequences. If you think it’s bad for him, try being a train engineer or any of the train crew if rail car jumps the track or a rail bridge collapses. The entire crew has to do a piss test. If you cause a tractor/trailer to wreck due to actions of you in your car the driver of the tractor/trailer has to do a drug test even though the accident wasn’t his fault.

Talk about CHEAP" Wel Sonic will never see my business again.

The problem is Lartique Wayne doesn't have health insurance and Sonic has opted out of the state's workers comp plan, KTRK reported.
OPTED OUT?? HOW is that legal?? And POT didn't make him put his leg in that position..the robbers did..

Fast food and convience stores are the modern equivelent of the coal mines of my grandfather's time. The work conditions are bad, the companies and bosses are terrible and the working conditions can be very dangerous
