Nando’s has proudly defended its Bugis branch manager’s decision to verbally eviscerate a sick part-timer, claiming that flu-like symptoms are just natural seasonings for their signature chicken.

The manager, who handles HR via a series of aggressive CAPS LOCK strokes, reminded the employee that being a "grown up" means sacrificing your respiratory health for the sake of a quarter chicken meal.

Management confirmed that the secret to their "Extra Hot" flavor isn't just bird’s eye chili, but the pure, concentrated rage of a middle manager whose Sunday plans were ruined.

"If you aren't literally dying on the kitchen floor, are you even committed to the Nando's family?" asked one spokesperson while polishing a golden rooster statue.

The company has since updated its employee handbook to state that any staff reporting a fever will be placed directly on the grill to ensure their body temperature matches the poultry.

Customers have reportedly praised the new "Mucus-Glazed" wings, noting that the saltiness of the manager's toxic behavior adds a much-needed depth to the lemon and herb palette.

The Stomper who leaked the chat was reminded that whistleblowing is a "last minute excuse" and she is cordially invited to handle the 12-hour closing shift without a bathroom break.

Nando’s continues to lead the F&B industry in "Hostile Work Environment Excellence," ensuring every meal is served with a side of lifelong trauma.
