Seriously though, I know first hand that they DO give free timbits to dogs at the drive-thru.After reading this Yahoo story, I do believe that my email may have helped get her job back with an apology from the company.

Dear Z:

Unfortunately tha actions of the manager of this location were not appropriate nor grounds for dismissal.

With an apology from management Ms. Lilliman has been rehired by this Tim Hortons franchisee at another location.

Regards,

Rachel
