He might have been following instructions. I can't find many people who can follow detailed multistep instructions. Shit, he might have just been trying to lube some cases with one shot. Everyone ends up way out in the weeds before they get to instruction number 5.
I had to show the owner, district manager, and all the general managers how to make cinnamon bites. They had been making wrong for years. They tried to correct me at first, but the instructions were posted on the wall. 5 steps pre cook, 2 steps post cook. They were taking the cinnamon sugar, that is supposed to be cooked on, sprinkling it on the icing. A couple months after pointing it out, they did away with the cinnamon sugar nationally. LOL. I guess there were more fucking it up, than doing it correct. Now its 2 step pre cook, and 1 step post cook. Simplified for the 15 dollar an hour minimum wagers.
