Given the menu items and prices below and the clues that follow, can you solve this difficult Logic Problem by finding how much each employee spent on lunch, his or her job at Gert's Gas & Go, and the hamburger and fries he or she ordered?

  Double CheeseBurger     2.25        Cheese Fries      1.35
