If its true, who cares either way how they handle it? Serve them or not? If they aren't planning on paying, its not a matter of race, its a matter of being a prick and making a low wage worker have to put up with your bullshit because can't be bothered to pay for a chipotle burrito. Of course, if its not true, then that completely changes everything.
You're commenting a lot on hypotheticals when the details exist for somebody who keeps saying they don't know details.Well, obviously. Just assuming its the same guy because he's black is about as blatant as it gets. I haven't read the investigation so I wouldn't know.
The one article posted in this thread mentions the manager got fired for not serving the customer, but never disputes whether she was correct about whether or not the customers had previously not paid. If you have something that says otherwise, I'd be happy to read it.You're commenting a lot on hypotheticals when the details exist for somebody who keeps saying they don't know details.
I saw this in the tribune article linked aboveThat's what it looks like.
I am a black man, and I'm gonna say this is one of those rare instances where I think I might have to look into it more. Only because she doesn't seem like the stereotypical racist right off the bat.
And because something about his caption looks like bait to me. Idk, this one just seems off.
"Regarding what happened at the St. Paul restaurant, the manager thought these gentlemen were the same customers from Tuesday night who weren't able to pay for their meal. Regardless, this is not how we treat our customers and as a result, the manager has been terminated and the restaurantOfficial Staff Communicationhas been retrained to ensure something like this doesn't happen again," the statement said
Is this alternative universe? I thought we always pay before getting food.
Chipotle is make order then pay. They wouldn't even service them until they paid.Is this alternative universe? I thought we always pay before getting food.
You call the cops on them or claim trespassing, then they have another issue altogether.If that is really the case, and these people really did buy food once and leave the food without paying, you still don't change your entire company/restaurant policy for this one instance. That's just bone headed. Honestly, if I'm that manager and I think this group of men has done this before, I still serve them. If it happens, you eat that shit and call it a day. If it becomes habitual (more than once, and you are certain) you call the cops and try and have them trespassed or something, or formally refuse them service. You don't take it upon yourself to change your entire corporate policy just for this one group of african american young men, while allowing other white customers to follow the standard procedure (all while being recorded doing this, mind you). You have to be a moron totally incapable of your job and position to not be able to process how terrible the optics of that are.
I cannot comprehend why these white people are still doing shit like this when they clearly know they're being filmed. Like once the phone gets whipped out and you're being recorded, they realized you're fucked if they keep doubling-down, don't they? How have they not seen the dozens of other incidents where it inevitably goes viral, makes NATIONAL news, and the racist gets fired
Do they think they're immune? Or maybe they're just extremely proud racists?

There are actually Chipotles where you get your food before paying? I've never been to one like that. The cashier always hands over the food after payment.not at Chipotle or similar places.
And have you never been to a sit-down restaurant?
First off there is more to this story than we know.
The girl clearly has seen these kids before and knows something we do not.
Just because they started to film and uploaded this shit doesn't mean anything, Only reason chipotle came out was because last thing they need is more bad press and people online run with this bullshit.
The investigation revealed that it wasn't them.First off there is more to this story than we know.

Nah the girl could clearly be an idiot who can't tell black people apart so she assumed they were the ones she previously had a negative experience with. Shouldn't have been to hard to treat every customer equally.First off there is more to this story than we know.

Chipotle is garbage food

I'd have to go with this. It all did seem sketch at first like she's really seen these men before

In the first video. She says "you gotta pay because you never have money when you come in here, bro."At what point did it seem like she;d seen them before?
It never seemed like that.
Minnesota. Not shock at all.
In this alternative universe, do you actually read threads before posting in them?Is this alternative universe? I thought we always pay before getting food.
Edit
Well, I thought Chipotle was just another Taco Bell. I guess it is considered a higher-status restaurant. I will still not ever eat there.
May I ask where you read that?Except Chipotle reviewed the tape and said they are not he same people
I don't see a white person in the video.The investigation revealed that it wasn't them.
I know we all look alike to white folks, but next time she should retrieve images from the surveillance system before changing up the policy on a few customers like that.
Lmfao did you even watch the video? It's the first thing she says.

So calling the cops would have been better? If they had posted a video of a Chipotle manager calling the cops on them "for no reason" I don't see how this would have turned out any better.If that is really the case, and these people really did buy food once and leave the food without paying, you still don't change your entire company/restaurant policy for this one instance.

Not one of them said "what are you talking about". The guy with the camera just repeated her words back to her.And it was obvious from their reactions that her claim was absolute bullshit.
No it wasn't. First you acted like she never said it. Now you're acting like you heard it, but it wasn't valid. You just want to be outraged. Lmfao.And it was obvious from their reactions that her claim was absolute bullshit.
Tribune already posted an article on this bruh. Internal investigation already happened, there were previous groups of young men who had essentially dine and dashed a couple days ago, and had been prior to that. She thought it was them, and she was obviously wrong.And it was obvious from their reactions that her claim was absolute bullshit.
You'd have to grab it when they have it sitting next to the register, which would be theft anyway.Lol magical hypothetical philosophers
Please explain to me how in the high seven seas you can get food from Chipotle without paying when it's behind the counter.
Please ponder this for me lmao
Looks like you're happy enough to give hypotheticals as it is.The one article posted in this thread mentions the manager got fired for not serving the customer, but never disputes whether she was correct about whether or not the customers had previously not paid. If you have something that says otherwise, I'd be happy to read it.

The employees and manager are fucking trash, how the heck did only the manager get fired? Wtf

I never said it was right.
