A London, Ont. woman will be getting her job at Tim Hortons back after being fired for giving a free Timbit to a toddler.
A statement issued by the company’s head office Thursday said the person who fired Nicole Lilliman, 27, went too far and that the single mother of 4 has been reinstated.
‘Unfortunately the action of the manager of this location was not appropriate,’ the statement read. ‘With an apology from management Ms. Lilliman has been rehired by the franchisee. We sincerely apologize to our customers for this unfortunate incident.’
Tim Hortons customers interviewed in London were less than impressed upon hearing of the firing.
