Noose made from dough gets 4 Woodstock Jimmy John’s workers fired
Four Jimmy John’s workers at a Woodstock store in Cherokee County were fired over Independence Day weekend after filming themselves playing with a noose made from dough.
One employee draped the noose over the neck of another while others watched and laughed. A celebratory “Happy 4th of July” filter streamed across the bottom of the video.
We have zero tolerance for racism or discrimination in any form. The franchisee has taken immediate action and the employees have been terminated. The actions seen in this video are completely unacceptable and do not represent the Jimmy John's brand.

The clip was posted on Snapchat, according to the Ledger-Enquirer, and shared across social media.
Jimmy John’s condemned the incident on Twitter and said the employees had been fired.
