damm I ate McDonalds today….well now I know that wendys and Taco Hell will be my Fast food of choice now!! this pisses me off…McDonalds should pay out of pocket! and not give stupid excuses about a training video- Mcdonalds!!!! Do the right thing- you already pay your employees crap money– he will just sue later- I hope he gets 20 times what you should have paid him!!!

Workers comp is a “no fault” insurance program. It is the responsibility of any company to provide wage loss for any injury on the job no matter who was at fault. In cases like this where a third party was responsible for causing the injury the employee must get his compensation and the insurance company must sue the third party to reclaim costs.

fayejiii: Your logic is greatly flawed!
If you were working in a public BANK and if the
Bank was robbed what would be your logic then?
The Point is he acted NOT on his own safety, but the safety of the
CUSTOMER(S) and that IS what all public services must do.
WORKPLACE SAFETY IS EVERYONES RESPONSIBILITY, that includes him
protecting the CUSTOMER(S).
Note: He was getting paid, he was on the property, he was hurt,
we have all paid; now it is time for his compensation.

honestly, if you look from mcdonald’s point of view, mcd need not to pay him. I know it’s a very sad story, but there’s policy and people are trained that NOT TO BE A HERO all the time even you are being robbed, safety always comes first that’s how mcd train their people. this case doesnt involve injury from workplace which cause from hazards, it cause from his courage, mcd shudnt reli pay him, to be frank. still i feel sorry for the guy…

How ridiculous. The McDonald employee may have averted a shooting of other customers or employees by his courageous action. Where is any common sense. McDonald’s should be giving this guy a bonus. In this day, when bonus are given to people who don’t deserve it, this is one guy WHO DOES.

Megyn Kelly on Fox news reported this story and Fox posted the Nigel Haskett’s Fund 501-603-3775, a fund set up by Twin Cities Bank in Little Rock, Arkansas. She reported that the judge and his clerk both contributed to the fund.

ero…Ha, I WISH I was rich, just another working stiff in the GVRD. Our health care system does fine for emergencies, but is sadly lacking when it comes to timely, compassionate care for all those on waiting lists for treatment. How do I know? I am a RN and can see the problems from within. Also remember, each province runs its own health care insurance. What you may get, say in Ontario or Alberta, is NOT what you get in BC.

Is there a fund you can send money to for Nigel???? If so please post the address.
December 16th, 2009 at 1:37 pm
That dude picked the wrong McDonalds to slap a Nappi Ho!
Nigel deserves 2009 Man of the Year! Great job buddy!
December 16th, 2009 at 2:20 pm
I can see the “SNL” skits now:
“You Deserve a Break Today… but not health care.”
Or the “McDonalds Domestic Violence Cage Match” between Rhianna and that asshole who hit her. When she bleeds, McDonalds could give her napkins with their logo to wipe off the blood. Great product placement!

fucking buearucracy! man risked his life to defend someone at his work and the fucking greed bastards dont even see that
December 16th, 2009 at 3:00 pm
they already said they’d pay for the time he’s had off
just not the medical bills
December 16th, 2009 at 3:14 pm
Agree,
Macdonald is evil
Poor guy…
December 16th, 2009 at 4:10 pm
WTF McDonald’s?
December 16th, 2009 at 5:06 pm
ok but what does it matter to you what I do?
December 16th, 2009 at 6:02 pm
I’m basing my judgement on your previous comments, or do you not pay attention to what you say from one post to another?
December 16th, 2009 at 6:31 pm
LoL why do you assume I won’t help people? you don’t know me.
December 16th, 2009 at 6:46 pm
Well, agree to disagree then, just make sure to let everybody know they can’t count on you if they need help.
December 16th, 2009 at 6:50 pm
Depressing! McD’s can certainly afford $300,000 – What’s the matter with them?!? Oh well, with the economy as bad as it is, it won’t be too hard for me to boycott McDonald’s. …Not a huge thing to cut out of my life. This guy deserves his medical bills paid in full along with some compensation for time off! Really. Common sense.

Thats why you always hear about bouncers getting shot.
