Will take any opportunity to act like monsters. Especially if they can do it anonymously. Funny how these two cowards didn't stick around to say it to her face.

is a a cock sucker supporter of trump.

Jerk

I can't understand why people make this shit up.

It won't go anywhere, but now that bigot is on notice.

She won't try that stunt again.

It was a good move to involve the police.

...

We still have first amendment rights in this country, but apparently that doesn't matter to some of you.

"We still have first amendment rights in this country, but apparently that doesn't matter to some of you..."

Who here is denying anyone their first amendment rights, regardless of who you pretend is making things up...?

Because they feel like they are losing all their privilege.

We can understand that right?

America is a big country.

We have room for nice, people, and not so nice ones.

Someday, those "customers" will get theirs.

My heart just sings at the way these women handled this incident. This is how change happens on the ground.

I hope Sadie is flooded with tips, and well-wishers crowd the restaurant and bring it great business. Crabby Appleton can go suck lemons.

if that waitress were to receive an outpouring of support, including lots of tip money from other customers to more than make up for the bigoted people mentioned in the article.

yes that is so funny i have seen thing like this so good but nothing will change the fact that we are the greatest.

I can't understand what you posted. "...i have seen thing like this..."? And what do you mean by "the greatest"? The greatest servers? The greatest gyros? Finally, what exactly were you aware of? I'm sure you have a point to make but your post is incomprehensible.

have been proven false so far? Facebook activism.

[hr][font color="blue"][center]Don't ever underestimate the long-term effects of a good night's sleep.[/center][/font][hr]

occasionally a "Fantastic job! Thank you!" or "Thank you so much!" We left a few pro Bernie messages during the Primary. Absolutely never a negative message. Their job is hard enough without bullshit from the peanut gallery. However, there are racists and other assorted nutjobs out there that will write something mean and spiteful. Maybe not all those publicized are real, but they do occur.

I have heard a number instances like this. Racist un-American republicans saying stupid crap like that to people. Could be in a store and hear something from some right wing idiot. I just look at them and shake my head.

He or she is saying that there have been other incidents like this one in which it later became known that the employee fabricated the nasty message on the receipt, and the customer never wrote any such thing. I don't accept what this young lady says as 100% gospel truth until it's proven. When an accusation is made against another party, the accused party should get the benefit of the doubt until wrongdoing is proven.

If and when it is proven, then this couple deserves to be heckled and scorned in the court of public opinion, because that's what racists and bigots deserve. Until then, I'm reserving judgment. If there's some graph analysis done and it's proven the handwriting matches one of the couple's handwriting, then that's conclusive. Just accusing them is not at all conclusive.

Withholding judgment until and if new facts come to light. Why people accept the waitress's account as absolute truth mystifies me, especially when former instances like this have been shown to be false. People can and do make things up from whole cloth all the time.

Compare a sample of the couple's writing against the receipt, especially a sample obtained before the date of the receipt. If it matches, then they deserve all the public scorn we can heap on them. If it doesn't, then this young lady needs to receive that full measure of scorn for fabricating the story.

And have been proven to be.

to get likes on FB.

It would be VERY educational for us regular folks to be able to refer to a source that does a good job of dissecting these sorts of claims.

WE KNOW there is no discrimination in these US of A.

why these agitators have to keep stirring the pot..........well.....they must have an agenda.

But there is probably something on Free Republic about this.

There was also the "get a real job" receipt note. The other one I can recall is the red lobster one. Here are a few links to those.

That being said, there have been others that didn't seem "funny" and seemed legit. I have less skeptcism for this current one than I usually do.

Poster said majority.

You'll supply us with objective sources validating your allegation, yes?

Desperate grab for attention.

How many proven accurate? Lack of objective source material in your narrative...


"Facebook activism..." Often met with the equally trendy and fashionable Facebook cynicism. (six of one, half a dozen of the other, and each as substantive as the other)

Ignorant fucks...

Just a bigoted assumption on their part.

I'm sure we will be seeing them interviewed soon, after they get the surveillance tape pictures.

and the racist, cheap skate customers.

I think that has more credibility than an auditorium full of people showing up to claim she made it all up!

Really appreciate your kind effort.

yup

me to believe that this is most likely true. The receipt shown has no tip included. The security video will either support her story or not. I am guessing that because the lady was banned from the restaurant it supported the waitress.

A bigot wouldn't leave a tip for a Latina server, true. But if a client didn't leave a tip, an irked server might very well make the accusation to get back at the client. It's not as if it's never happened before.

I'm reserving judgment until more facts come to light. At present one party has accused the other, and the accused party has denied wrongdoing. Until something more substantive in one way or another comes into play, it's he said/she said, and I give the accused the benefit of the doubt in cases where there is no evidence to prove wrongdoing.

Examine the surveillance video and, if possible, compare the handwriting on the receipt to samples of the couple's handwriting. Either one would go a great distance towards determining the truth, and if indeed the customer did write that message, they deserve every moment of being pilloried in the court of public opinion.

As, IRL I'm not a very demonstrative person, it gives me an opportunity to say how much I appreciate what someone has done for me.

To me, it's all about the here-and-now of the current transaction with that individual or individuals.

I suppose I've been lucky in life. I could probably count the instances of truly bad service (due directly to things under the server's control) I've experienced on one hand and in most of those, I've left a tip anyway. It's my way of passing it forward. Hey, maybe the person is having a horrible day. It could be they just dealt with an a$$ described in these tip articles.

brimming with anger till it spills out over the sides onto even the innocent.

There have been too many cases where the bigoted message - racist, homophobic, whatever - later proved to be a hoax.

There really isn't a preferred scenario here. If the note is genuine, it highlights the racist douchabaggery that exists in our society. Bringing it to light is a good thing (I suppose), but its existence is ugly.

If the note is fake, that means someone is being dishonest. That's ugly, too.

Of legit versus fake?

But it's >0.

...saying "we don't serve assholes who insult out staff".

Different handwriting, different ink. Fake.

I agree the hand writing looks different. One is fluid the other very rigid. The ink actually looks the same to me but that would make sense as the pen provided to sign would be right there with the check. I'm not an expert though. The waitress got stiffed, maybe she was a bad waitress?

That is not going to stop the 5 minutes hate against the newest perceived enemy.

Apparently the female patron signed the credit card slip, then he wrote in the "We Only Tip Citizens."

It sounds like the lady in signed that was facebook friends with the mom of the waitress. They seem to be running with the idea that the guy she was with was the one who wrote it...

in recent years. However, I have far less skepticism for this than usual because of what's going on in this country right now. There are way too many ignorant and hateful people who have been emboldened this last year.

That being said, I still remain open to seeing how it plays out.
