LOS ANGELES -- Claiming it was the only place he wanted to go after receiving one of Hollywood's highest honors, Academy Award winner for Best Live Action Short Film Jack Piatt celebrated Tuesday by taking his Oscar to his In-N-Out shift. "When I heard our film get called, there was no question in my mind -- I was going to hop in my car and go straight to the In-N-Out Burger on Sunset so I could clock in," said Piatt, who after arriving at the popular fast food chain immediately put down his Academy Award, put on an apron, and frantically rushed behind the counter to work the griddle. "Sure, some people in my position would rather go to the Governors Ball or the Vanity Fair afterparty, but I just feel more at home here. Plus, my boss says if I miss another day of work, he'll fire me. And I'm super behind on rent this month." At press time, Piatt had reportedly been let go after various fans photographed him holding his statuette and eating a burger with 30 minutes still left in his shift.
