The early morning shift isn’t for everybody, but one employee at a Taco Bell in upstate South Carolina took his disdain for working early to another level Monday.

The employee at the Spartanburg restaurant is accused of throwing a hot burrito at his supervisor, according to multiple media reports.

Police were called to the restaurant after the man who was angry about his work schedule got into an argument with several co-workers, according to WYFF.

After a supervisor told the man to “stop being a crybaby,” according to various reports, he got angry and threw the burrito. He then broke his headset and stormed out of the restaurant.

Hot cheese from the burrito got on the supervisor’s arm and kitchen appliances, Fox Carolina reported. It’s unclear if there were any injuries.

No arrests were made as of Tuesday.
