This is not looting.
Looting is indiscriminately taking things during a war or a riot; it's not stealing either, as certainly someone inside the building knows they are using the water.  So it's more like violating company policy.

That's funny, you thought all that and noticed all that by driving through wendy's for lunch - hilarious. Don't come around me you could assume too much. :)

Inquiring mind wondering at Wendy's....

Call me old-fashioned...
(All right, you really didn't have to, it was rhetorical after all) but I think it is some form of stealing.  A lot of places are on water restrictions and I would rather see Wendy's water washing dishes than cars.

This is definitely a misappropriation of assets, Krisles. Wait 'til the
manager gets the water bill and sees the spike.  When he can't find the leak, somebody's getting fired...

Dave Thomas is rolling over in his grave.
But, frankly, that's only because he's on a rotisserie.  Wendy is behind this somehow.  I never trust somebody over the age of 13 wearing pigtails.

I have a feeling somebody who works the counters there was getting a free car wash at the expense of losing his job when the boss eventually gets wind of this.

Krisles
Aside from a trifling concern over the term 'looting', which I associate with a more general, unrestrained, grab-whatever-you-can kind of activity, I fully agree with you! They were certainly stealing, unless they had permission from that Wendy's owner, which I doubt...

If one doesn't have permission, it is looting!  sam

I guess you could call it that
.... but while it may not be completly "above board" it's better than having them camped out at Wendy's begging.
