"Big Fat Black Lady" Angered by Gas Station Receipt

SACRAMENTO, CA - Helen Hodges understood the need for a gas station clerk to write her identifying information on a sales receipt. She just wishes he had chosen a different phrase.

"It says 'black lady,' and I can understand that because I am a black lady," Hodges told News10. "But I don't get 'big fat.' I don't get that part."

Hodges, 31, said the offensive incident happened Thursday night after she was shorted $10 in a gas pump mix-up at a station on Marconi Avenue near the Capital City Freeway. When she returned to the station for a refund, a $10 bill was attached to a receipt with a handwritten notation "black lady big fat."

Hodges said it was her 6-year-old son who noticed the slight, which hurt even more. She tried contacting the manager, but is still waiting for an apology.

"The lesson they should learn is my money helps run that store," Hodges said. "And I won't be going back."

The writing clearly says : "Black Ladz".

I suspect that it is the name for a new rap group.

"Big Fat" is probably just the name of their frontman.

"Black Ladz featuring Big Fat...tonight only!"

(LOL)

Yeah, if that gas station had a mini-mart, she might have been keeping them afloat all by herself...

Okay, so she's bitching because the description is at least 3/4 correct?

What am I missing here?

Why not just put her name on the receipt?

Dear woman, you look at least a foot and a half taller than the roof of that car. That accounts for the "big" descriptor. And you appear to weigh almost as much. That accounts for the "fat."

HAHAHA!

I love it!

I just noticed, the lady doesn't have the ever common in da 'hood manicure.

You can be dirt poor, but somehow you have nails and extensions. Odd that.

I’ll bet she was just as sweet and nice as can be while disputing the $10 with the attendant too.

What’s written on the receipt is offensive...that said, maybe the attendant had heard enough of the rampant reverse racism that is very much alive and well in American culture...

The attendant should have written “morbidly obese”.
