A restaurant owner in Pennsylvania told a Black customer that he was just making a joke when he printed the N-word on her receipt.
Local news station WTAJ reported that a customer, who is being identified only as a woman named "Kassie," went to pick up an order recently at the Aviation Inn in Duncansville, and was immediately disturbed when the restaurant went silent upon her entrance.
Kassie then picked up her order and found a receipt that described her as "n---er chik."
She later called the restaurant to complain to a manager about her treatment, and owner Allen Butterbaugh told her that one of his employees had written the description as a "joke" that was not supposed to be shared with her.

(1,654 posts)But when the feedback is negative when there is a disgusting experience, it's harrassment. He said the description was supposed to be a "joke." Well, what are you supposed to think when you accidentally find out what they think of you? Are you supposed to think, "oh yeah. My money is welcome to them but I'm not?" It's about time they tell employees it's not good business to even "joke" with fellow employees about paying customers.
