They learned that it's not the end of the world, or an automatic pinkslip so they don't try and cover it up the next time.

I will say bravo for the BK owner for taking full responsibility for what his employee did.
I hear what you're saying, but I don't want any assumptions from my employees. I want them to *KNOW* that they will be terminated if they have no integrity and will try to lie, use deceit, and escape from responsibility the first chance they get.

I also want them to *KNOW* that mistakes happen, and if they man up and take ownership of the responsibility that goes with those mistakes, there's a future for them within my employ.

+1 to the honesty thing...

I was working in the garage a while ago, and saw a small football hit the side of my FR-S after hitting the ground and bouncing to the car. When I went out to get the ball and give it to the neighborhood kids, they SCATTERED. All four of them, even trying to hide behind a bush?!? I walked over, gathered the little ankle-biters, and spoke to them about the poor decision to hide and not fess up about the barely-worthwile mistake. Jeez, what's wrong with confessing to simple mistakes?
