It’s not necessarily a snitch. When a school, or a shop does inventory, they can see how many food items they have left compared to the previous day, and how much money they earned, and if the numbers don’t add up, they would know that people got free stuff.
I’m so happy other schools offered to bring her on board. Anywhere she goes, she’ll be standing up for children who might go hungry without her. Bless her 💙
I once gave away food instead of throwing it away (it expires that day). Got scolded. I broke the rules so I fired myself that week and never come back to that insudtry since I cannot see food being treated like that😅
My very first job was at burger king. In the morning we would make allot of breakfast sandwiches and if they were coming past throw out time I would offer them to people for free. I got in trouble but I just told them it was expired. Luckily my boss was decent
I worked somewhere where we had to throw away food too, and if we ate it, we were expected to pay full price even if it was just about to go in the trash anyway. Such a shame.
@@YOTSUBA_desu what do you mean the parents can't give them food in the day tf there in school and others are doing their job or idk maybe dont got money like that I'm not saying it was right but I am saying that stating that it's the parents fault is ignorant and honestly kinda mean to kids or parents who can't get food like that
@@lokithegodofmischief4090 Mine was one of the highest ranked for bullying. We had a pretty high suicide rate from bullying several years ago. I don't doubt there are schools out there that don't tolerate it, but I hear way too many that just straight up ignore it. It's enough to warrant looking into.
f l o w e r s ぽボ your jumping the gun The principal doesn’t own the food it’s a company that is stocking the food so the principle has no power in this He is just a principle he doesn’t own the food or pay for the food to come neither does the person who stole and gave food to children
I didn't come from a wealthy family, to put it lightly, but the schools I went to provided free meals for students who couldn't afford it including myself. It was very commonplace and it was hard to tell who got free meals or who paid for them since we had school accounts with money that either the parents put in or the school system funded. Its terrible that the kids who attended this school had to experience this and that the lunch lady was fired for giving what was needed.
As someone else noted, "This school has an extensive food program. They provide a free breakfast to ALL students and have free lunch options for ALL students. That's hardly a money grab. Of course when an employees decides to hand out free food to their grand kids, that hurts the program. " Superintendent said, "All kids get free breakfast. At lunch they pay, charge if they forgot the money, or have free and reduced lunch. Each student gets four choices of entree. We also give many students food to take home on Fridays for the weekend, and every day Monday through Friday in the summer we have a free lunch for all kids located at the Middle School. What is being reported is not the real story.” They have no shortage of options. They aren't going starving. This is a non-story. Media demagoguery, pure and simple.
When breaking the rules means repairing hearts of poor children with blessings, you gotta do what you gotta do if you have a heart 🤷🏽♂️ must respect, ma’am!
She is a hands down a thief, we don’t teach kids to steal, if those poor ass kids couldn’t afford lunch then they go hungry plain and simple, I would have fired her ass to, stealing food like that, get out of my school thief
My mother retired after 27 years due to heart problems from being a school cafeteria worker. You wouldn't believe the amount of kids who are now adults thst have come up to her thanking her for doing this same exact thing. Whomever is still like this keep it going. You haven't an idea on how many people appreciate that later in life.
As a man that received free/reduced lunch as a kid. This lady is an angel. She accepts fault and even payed out of her own pocket and she is rewarded with unemployment. What is the message this school is sending there students?
The schools message they're sending is that US education is a complete joke. And then they act all surprised and shook when thier school gets lit up... with lead.
I suspect the message is that you are not free to give away inventory that does not belong to you... because this is theft. There are programs in place, and I suspect you were in one of these programs. That's great. These programs are awesome and most people (myself included) are happy to pay into them, but there are some people that will abuse them; they do need to be monitored. If she did indeed want to pay for these kids' meals she could have done that up front by putting her own money into the till. She did not, but instead offered to pay restitution once caught. What message does it send to kids if we say you can do whatever you want so long as you admit guilt once caught? This is a terrible message. I don't see how spending other people's money makes someone an angel, it makes you a thief. Also... *their. ;)
I agree... I don't have kids, so as a single guy with no dependants, I get taxed far more than parents do. And property taxes, which also fund schools, are no different either if you don't have kids.

@@jawant6039 Isn't it a good thing kids are "spoiled"? Means human civilization is trending towards more comfort, more food, more success. The goal of all human civilization has been to make things as efficient and comfortable as possible. That's why we went from hunter-gathering to agriculture, why we went from superstition to science. Kids have a right to be spoiled, as do adults, at least in this part of the world. We have plenty of food for everyone, so it's pretty dumb to deny a starving kid food at school in a society as successful as ours. Being spoiled is a sign of a healthy society. A society where everyone, generally, has everything they need. If anything, people should be MORE spoiled. Demand more things, because we have plenty of recourses for all, just locked behind a paywall from many.
She did a good deed for her community. The school is to selfish to realize she not only does her job but actually cares for the children. You don’t know what those kids go through for them not to eat.
shes committing theft, Its like if you worked at a super market and you were just handing out free groceries, it doesn’t matter whether they were still hungry or not life doesn’t work that way
I love this lady I was one of them kids growing up it’s wat made me the hard worker I am now Your heart is as big as the world I miss the older people with big hearts now days people worry about $

Cloudyplays Minecraft My mom says if someone bullies you I’ll allow u to punch, Kick, or any thing and if I get suspended she wouldn’t care because she knows that I did what u had to ÙwÚ
Josiah McGhee like i said, they paid for it. Money was given for the food so does it matter who is paying? Sometimes my friend pays for me. No one cares. So this lunch lady paid for them. Whats the difference
This is the exact opposite from all the lunch shaming that so many other schools have committed in recent memory. She did the "wrong" things for the right reasons, and I hope that she gets better employment elsewhere. I feel bad for all those kids she has tried to help, because now, they don't have her to help them anymore. She has a heart of GOLD that is priceless.
I mean cmon if they are going to legally force kids to spend their entire childhood in a prison learning things they won't remember, at least provide them with the food to be successful and happy. Especially the kids who don't eat well at home. Everything that lady did was right, it's only our cultures standards that's holding that back.
@@emmieprzybylski5182 That is not right LOL, my school has free lunch for EVERYONE AT THE SCHOOL, you don't have to apply or anything grades 7-12 get free lunches and that goes for other districts here as well. We have money for everything we need like renovations and such, and we arent even a wealthy city.
Schools get enough in grants each year through the standardized testing they make the kids endure year after year. Also, the school lunch costs $2. How expensive can it really be to feed each kid when half of them pack lunch anyway lol.
my school has about $850 students (6th-8th), and lunch costs about maybe $2.75 (including milk, juice, 2 sides, the main thing, and sometimes dessert), so if only half of the students eat hot lunch everyday, it would cost the school on average $5,843.75 per week, so about $233,750 a year. that’s a lot
Sorry buddy, not the right thing to do. The right thing is to give the kid money if she wanted, and have him pay the school for food. She doesn't own the food.
I think this is in Delaware. And to think that not far away, in Washington DC, there are people paying $1000.00 a plate for fancy dinners. They probably throw alot of food away after these dinners..... and it's not pizza and cheese sandwiches. It's just not right.
I work in catering, and I know well good how much food gets thrown out. It's criminal. Food is always over catered, and waste is inevitable. I fully support what this woman did, and I would have done the same. You can see why she was so well loved, she looks and sounds lovely
take the food that they want to throw out home with you, it has no value for them anymore anyways so may as well take it rather than throw it away and no i dont care about any guidelines or rules in that regard, food should never be wasted
I worked at Woolworths on Saturday and I was on the deli counter which they had many years ago. One day an elderly lady came in and was looking at all the prices then she asked me for two sausages. I was so upset for her that I gave her six sausages and only charged for two. When I went to work the following Saturday there was a line of old people down the street all waiting for the deli counter. When it was their turn to be served they said they were waiting for me. I was terrified and they moved me to the sweet counter. I don't think they ever knew what I had done but must have thought something was up but couldn't work out what.
Liam Someone No she doesn’t. Lunch ladies are volunteers. They volunteer to serve food. They don’t make the food, it’s most likely distributed from a company. Also, it’s clearly against the rules to steal, hence why she got fired

They were probably looking to lay people off and decided she'd be an easy fire w/out tenure
Rich spoilt kiddos who can't empathise
tRump.
I bet the snitch got her or his ass jumped
It’s not necessarily a snitch. When a school, or a shop does inventory, they can see how many food items they have left compared to the previous day, and how much money they earned, and if the numbers don’t add up, they would know that people got free stuff.
I’m so happy other schools offered to bring her on board. Anywhere she goes, she’ll be standing up for children who might go hungry without her. Bless her 💙
I once gave away food instead of throwing it away (it expires that day). Got scolded. I broke the rules so I fired myself that week and never come back to that insudtry since I cannot see food being treated like that😅
My very first job was at burger king. In the morning we would make allot of breakfast sandwiches and if they were coming past throw out time I would offer them to people for free. I got in trouble but I just told them it was expired. Luckily my boss was decent
I worked somewhere where we had to throw away food too, and if we ate it, we were expected to pay full price even if it was just about to go in the trash anyway. Such a shame.
The fact she still received job offers shows that her compassion rubbed off somewhere. Children need people like her
She was lucky she found schools that actually cared about children
I hope she is doing well :3

ALTERNATE TITLE: Lunch Lady Fired After She Makes Sure Students Don't Starve
Steals food*
Yvonne MC Yes it is, those resources don’t belong to her
@@YOTSUBA_desu so you’d rather have them starve?
Nate Chicken Them starving for a day would incentivize their parents do do their job, so yes. Ultimately it’s on them.
@@YOTSUBA_desu what do you mean the parents can't give them food in the day tf there in school and others are doing their job or idk maybe dont got money like that I'm not saying it was right but I am saying that stating that it's the parents fault is ignorant and honestly kinda mean to kids or parents who can't get food like that
So, schools ignore bullying, but flip when a lunch lady helps kids who need to eat?
Goes to show how corrupt schools can be. 🤦♀️
schools when a girl shows their ankle: 😡😡😡
Agreed
I’m sure there are plenty of schools who don’t ignore bullying
@@lokithegodofmischief4090 Mine was one of the highest ranked for bullying. We had a pretty high suicide rate from bullying several years ago. I don't doubt there are schools out there that don't tolerate it, but I hear way too many that just straight up ignore it. It's enough to warrant looking into.
You broke the rule, the school broke faith in humanity.
If she got fired for having a big heart and soul, then shame on that person that fired her.
this woman is such a good person she cares about the kids unlike the principal
thats facts
f l o w e r s ぽボ your jumping the gun The principal doesn’t own the food it’s a company that is stocking the food so the principle has no power in this He is just a principle he doesn’t own the food or pay for the food to come neither does the person who stole and gave food to children
Yeah he should of gotten fired
The principle or none of the staff in my school care about us and it shows during things like lockdowns
Santi Cheeks the most they can do in the lockdown is teach us online
Kids should get a free lunch if they can't afford it. This just goes to show how much districts don't care about kids and instead just profits.
I didn't come from a wealthy family, to put it lightly, but the schools I went to provided free meals for students who couldn't afford it including myself. It was very commonplace and it was hard to tell who got free meals or who paid for them since we had school accounts with money that either the parents put in or the school system funded.
Its terrible that the kids who attended this school had to experience this and that the lunch lady was fired for giving what was needed.
As someone else noted, "This school has an extensive food program. They provide a free breakfast to ALL students and have free lunch options for ALL students. That's hardly a money grab. Of course when an employees decides to hand out free food to their grand kids, that hurts the program.
"
Superintendent said, "All kids get free breakfast. At lunch they pay, charge if they forgot the money, or have free and reduced lunch. Each student gets four choices of entree. We also give many students food to take home on Fridays for the weekend, and every day Monday through Friday in the summer we have a free lunch for all kids located at the Middle School. What is being reported is not the real story.”
They have no shortage of options. They aren't going starving. This is a non-story.
Media demagoguery, pure and simple.

@yhootoob Jesus gave food to the poor, she was just being a good Christian
As a man that received free/reduced lunch as a kid. This lady is an angel. She accepts fault and even payed out of her own pocket and she is rewarded with unemployment. What is the message this school is sending there students?
The schools message they're sending is that US education is a complete joke.
And then they act all surprised and shook when thier school gets lit up... with lead.
Just cogs in a machine we are not people we are numbers
I suspect the message is that you are not free to give away inventory that does not belong to you... because this is theft. There are programs in place, and I suspect you were in one of these programs. That's great. These programs are awesome and most people (myself included) are happy to pay into them, but there are some people that will abuse them; they do need to be monitored. If she did indeed want to pay for these kids' meals she could have done that up front by putting her own money into the till. She did not, but instead offered to pay restitution once caught. What message does it send to kids if we say you can do whatever you want so long as you admit guilt once caught? This is a terrible message. I don't see how spending other people's money makes someone an angel, it makes you a thief. Also... *their. ;)
@@LifesLaboratory Sir, they had more than enough food to feed the poor children too. The only message there is is “We don’t like poor people”.
@@LifesLaboratory you def seem like a teacher that would say, "the bell doesn't dismiss you, I do"
Word gets out. You'd have every kid in the school begging her to fill their tummy.
That lunch lady is a wonderful and great person! She should have NOT gotten fired!
With the amount of tax money parents pay that goes to schools all breakfast and lunches should be free at every school.
Randy Burk and the parents still have to buy all the damn school supplies to w t h
I agree... I don't have kids, so as a single guy with no dependants, I get taxed far more than parents do. And property taxes, which also fund schools, are no different either if you don't have kids.

@@jawant6039 Isn't it a good thing kids are "spoiled"? Means human civilization is trending towards more comfort, more food, more success. The goal of all human civilization has been to make things as efficient and comfortable as possible. That's why we went from hunter-gathering to agriculture, why we went from superstition to science. Kids have a right to be spoiled, as do adults, at least in this part of the world. We have plenty of food for everyone, so it's pretty dumb to deny a starving kid food at school in a society as successful as ours. Being spoiled is a sign of a healthy society. A society where everyone, generally, has everything they need. If anything, people should be MORE spoiled.

Josiah McGhee she paid for them.
Josiah McGhee like i said, they paid for it. Money was given for the food so does it matter who is paying? Sometimes my friend pays for me. No one cares. So this lunch lady paid for them. Whats the difference
Josiah McGhee true
This is the exact opposite from all the lunch shaming that so many other schools have committed in recent memory. She did the "wrong" things for the right reasons, and I hope that she gets better employment elsewhere. I feel bad for all those kids she has tried to help, because now, they don't have her to help them anymore. She has a heart of GOLD that is priceless.
I mean cmon if they are going to legally force kids to spend their entire childhood in a prison learning things they won't remember, at least provide them with the food to be successful and happy. Especially the kids who don't eat well at home. Everything that lady did was right, it's only our cultures standards that's holding that back.
I don’t think she should have been fired. Kids should always eat free.
Except then the school would run out of money very fast
@@emmieprzybylski5182 That is not right LOL, my school has free lunch for EVERYONE AT THE SCHOOL, you don't have to apply or anything grades 7-12 get free lunches and that goes for other districts here as well. We have money for everything we need like renovations and such, and we arent even a wealthy city.
Capitalist schools
Schools get enough in grants each year through the standardized testing they make the kids endure year after year. Also, the school lunch costs $2. How expensive can it really be to feed each kid when half of them pack lunch anyway lol.
my school has about $850 students (6th-8th), and lunch costs about maybe $2.75 (including milk, juice, 2 sides, the main thing, and sometimes dessert), so if only half of the students eat hot lunch everyday, it would cost the school on average $5,843.75 per week, so about $233,750 a year. that’s a lot
She went out doing the right thing, and that’s what matters.
Better to do the right thing over the wrong reason. Then wrong thing for the right
Sorry buddy, not the right thing to do. The right thing is to give the kid money if she wanted, and have him pay the school for food. She doesn't own the food.
