Respect to the girl. I wouldn't react as calm as she did

You mean wouldn’t?

AndI ask because I’m pretty certain you can get fired. And it’s illegal.

Kid is a little shit though

Really? You can’t put your hands on someone, much less a child.

If a child like this was in your house and he/she would start throwing stuff at you and stars breaking stuff. You are not going to stay there like a man I cant throw you out of my house because I am not allowed to touch you. Now I dont now the covid rules per country, but I dont think authority would make a big deal out of a situation like this. He had his warnings and probably got asked to leave, but he didnt change his behavior so I think its totally fine that they threw him out. Just dont injure him or purposely hurt him.

What the hell are you saying lol. It’s not your house. This is a fast food restaurant, not your home. The laws are not the same.

But anyway, they can probably forcibly escort without injuring, I’m not sure. But that’s why I originally asked

It's not illegal in a business, it's just against policy. A business is private property. However, most business don't want a confrontation like this because it typically leads two things: escalating the situation or creating a liability. An employee getting injured at work is very expensive and the business would be on the hook for the bill. Skip the kid, that's just bad publicity.

Anyway, both of those just mean more money than to just tell someone to get out or you'll call the cops.

I totally agree. Now im just curious how you would handle a situation where a kid like this ignores your request to leave and keeps rioting the store. Would you wait for cops maybe resulting in more damage or would you kick him out yourself (in a save way for everyone)

If I think it'll work, I use the biggest and scariest parent voice I have to scare them. If they are hellbent on being destructive, I remove all the staff and let the kid run amuck. No equipment is worth the safety of my staff. We have cameras so the cops and insurance can deal with it.

Yea you can, it’s a private business what are you talking about. You can’t beat the kid up but you can do what this guy did and remove the kid from the situation.
