    see now this is a creative effective form of punishment: It’s teaching her a lesson and hopefully rehabilitating her behavior. as opposed to getting an ankle monitor and being confined to house arrest or probation or community service or something, Oh it would do nothing to address her an ability to understand how workers in the fast food industry should be treated with dignity and respect as fellow humans.

    The only problem is imagine being the manager of a fast food restaurant and knowing that this vitriolic woman is on your staff and you need to keep an extra eye on her to make sure she doesn’t lash out in anger at colleagues and customers

      No… No supervision… Fire her ass! Let her live with the reality of the situation, that those poor kids behind that register can and do get fired for the silliest of shit.

      Make her have to job hunt for the rest of her punishment term lol. Only thing worse than working retail is having to beg some mid-20’s “manager” for a shit retail job ;)

      Judges can’t sentence anyone to work at a fast food restaurant. They can however make a deal with the defendant to do almost whatever they want, in lieu of the full sentence they would otherwise face.

      Which means if the person doesn’t complete their end of the deal, to the judges satisfaction, the full sentence would be applied.

      So she has to do the job, well enough that the manager doesn’t complain to the judge, or else she probably faces a few more months jail time on top of probation.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Videos of the woman, Rosemary Hayne, berating Chipotle worker Emily Russell on September 5 and then throwing the food in her face at close range, went viral after the incident.

    Hayne, a 39-year old mother of four, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor assault charge and received the sentence last week in the Parma, Ohio, municipal court.

    Asked if he would want to hire Hayne if he ran a fast food restaurant, the judge said he doesn’t think she’ll have trouble finding a job.

    He said there was one case a couple of years ago in which a customer who didn’t get a cookie in a Happy Meal at a McDonald’s reached through the drive-thru window and started punching a worker.

    Asked for a comment on the case, Chipotle responded: “The health and safety of our employees is our greatest priority, and we’re pleased to see justice served for any individual that does not treat our team members with the respect they deserve.”

    One of Russell’s friends started a fundraising effort on social media for her and it has raised $7,300 so far, with most of that money coming since the first news reports about Hayne’s sentence last week.
