Some people just need to be forcefully banished to a remote island with no food, horny horses and hungry lions.

CNN Article

FB post mentioned in the article

quote:

Karly Lane went to Party City on Saturday to buy a dozen blue and black balloons to honor her friend, Duquesne Police officer Robert Gogo Jr., who died in an off-duty motorcycle accident last month, she told CNN affiliate WPXI. Once the worker discovered the balloons were to honor a police officer, Lane said, the worker had someone else wait on her.


quote:

Party City responded that they "absolutely do not condone this type of behavior and are taking the situation very seriously." Party City said it is conducting an internal investigation and holding "an immediate sensitivity training and code of conduct refresher."

I have noticed a pattern.

This only happens from LOW INTELLIGENCE minimum wage workers.

Go. Figure......

What's wrong with getting someone else to help the customer.. Order was fullfilled, the employee was able to hold to some stupid belief and party city was able to sell more balloons. Making this a big deal does no one a service and will just perpetuate the entrenchment on both sides..

Why do we always here the employer "doesn't condone such actions." Why don't we here the employer "fired the bitch."

Anyone that refuses service to any client without having authority from the head of the business should be fired on the spot, no questions asked.

Because if the order was for a bunch of rainbow colored balloons for a gay pride event, and the employee refused to wait on the customer, the employee's name would be blown up on social media right now and they would be fired.
