1. Vets must follow the rules too

If this was a one time incident, I would be all over Cracker barrel, but he was warned numerous times. And being a vet has nothing to do with working at Cracker Barrel. I say this as a person who served 24 years in the military. What I find worse is that restaurants aren't allowed to give food at the end of the day to food kitchens. They have to throw it away. I find that to be terrible.
