A burger-flipper at a McDonald’s in Indiana allegedly flipped out on a co-worker earlier this week, hitting her in the face with a cheeseburger during an argument.

During a late-night shift at a Bloomington McDonald’s location on Tuesday, a 21-year-old fast-food employee reportedly became unhappy with his 18-year-old co-worker, accusing her of being too slow, Fox 59 reports.

He then threw a cheeseburger at the young woman, hitting her in the face.

The female employee told police she wanted to file a battery charge against her co-worker, who was given a summons to appear in court at a later date, Fox 59 reported.
