AN employer has been hailed the world’s best boss after buying a lottery ticket for each of his employees. Todd Graves bought his 50,000 Raising Cane’s workers a chance at scoring the $830 million jackpot with a Mega Millions ticket each.

Collecting the tickets – which were paid for in cash – took about eight hours as they were individually printed between two different gas stations. Raising Cane’s CEO AJ Kumaran confirmed the employees had been treated to a chance to win big in the lotto, courtesy of Graves. He told Fox & Friends: “It’s not a joke.

We’ve always believed in staying together as a family, taking care of each other, everything.” He said the cost of living crisis faced by many around the world is making “things hard out there”. Kumaran explained: “People are seeing it in their grocery shelves, their gas stations. So when the jackpot came to this big, large number, we wanted to do this.” Graves said as soon as he’d heard about the jackpot, they didn’t want to miss out.

He said: “Didn’t win the jackpot this morning but we’re always winning with our great crew.” The Louisiana-based fast-food chain specialises in chicken fingers and was founded by Graves and Craig Silvey in 1996. The sum has now climbed to over $1billion for Friday’s draw and will be the 30th in this run. Graves’ generosity mirrors that of the big-hearted Sydney-based Soup Agency boss Katya Vakulenko who splashed out on a “working holiday” to neck cocktails by the pool. Employees struck gold after the company owner boss jetted them off on an all expenses trip to Bali, Indonesia. Colleagues at the marketing firm were also spoiled with yoga sessions and chowed down on fresh seafood as they traded in their stuffy office for a luxury villa.
