It’s nice to know that people live comfortably enough, to not have to worry about keeping their jobs because they choose to be ignorant.
Tyrone Moseley stopped in to a local Sonic Drive-in with his coworker for lunch on Friday and got the surprise of his life once he checked he receipt from the order according to Fox4.
After they finished their meal, Tyrone says he noticed his friend’s receipt that said, “Mexican.” When he checked his receipt, it said a variation of the n-word.
“One of the workers, she came outside. I asked her and said, ‘Do you know anything about this? Is this how y’all put the name of your customers on your receipt?’ She was like, ‘Ugh… no.’ But then she kind of giggled and just walked off and kept going,” he explained.
Moseley said the carhop responsible for the slurs is also black.
“I try not to use that word, and I know where it comes from,” he said. “It kind of bothers me for your own kind to call you that. Especially at a place of business. Especially where I spend my money at.”
Sonic moved immediately to fire the employee and release this statement.:
“We understand that a carhop wrote an offensive word on one customer’s receipt and a different offensive word on another customer’s receipt. The franchisees who own and operate this drive-in consider such behavior to be completely unacceptable. They have already investigated the matter and report that the carhop is no longer employed by the drive-in.”
Moseley for his part, says he wanted, but was not given an explanation from Sonic. Sonic has vowed to train their staff better.
