Is the Mgr the one that wrote PIG on the cup?

Even if not, she still bears some responsibility.

The ol’ Jesse Jackson spiting on hamburgers ploy.

I’m confused — Doesn’t PIG stand for

Police are Immensely Great

[Skooz]

The lack of self-awareness of this creature is astonishing.

[Responsibility2nd]

Rose, who is a transgender college student, said that she had always wanted to work for Starbucks because of how they treat employees.

 

You got what you deserved, sex freak. Starbucks treats conservatives like crap. So why should they treat you any better.

We start civility by forgiving minor indiscretions and using those moments to help people better themselves ...
You think for a minute that this entitled @sswipe will ever learn a lesson? Never happen.

[catnipman]

“If she had to apply 5 times to get a Starbucks job there’s other baggage out there”

no kidding ... and it looks like Starbucks should have passed on the 5th and all subsequent applications ...

I read on another thread the Chief of Police was asking Starbucks to hire Him/Her/It back.

No, it was the barista. This he/she thing is the manager.

It's began.

Starbucks terminated me with no cause.

Lola Rose is organizing this fundraiser.

 

My name is Lola Mae Rose and this is my story.

ON NOVEMEMBER 29th I was terminated from my position at Starbucks Coffee with no notice or cause, the incident involving the Kiefer Police and a differe Starbucks employee led to an uproar of social media threats and slander, as I  continue my search for employment I am in need of help to not only soften the blow of being left unemployed, but to cover medical expenses for daily prescriptions and also to assist me in becoming stable in my first apartment  

I am so grateful for all the help and support that I’ve received so far, I can never thank the community that has gather behind me enough. 

this campaign was originally started by a friend of mine, his name is Chapman, I now have sole access to the account, and these funds are truly making a difference in my situation. Thank you all so so much

“... a small-town officer was offended by something [and couldn’t think like an adult] and posted to Facebook.”

Reminds me of “some people did something”

And, the ‘and couldn’t think like an adult’ part is beyond infuriating. As if, how DARE a paying customer be offended at being treated so badly.

Starbucks, you made the right choice firing this POS.

[Responsibility2nd]

who is a transgender college student

Please tell me why this is relevant to the story?

 

I am confused. Starbucks is very tolerant over deviant lifestyles. How they could fire a tranny is beyond me. I suspect it was complicit with the barista in the Pig incident.

[Tired of Taxes]

Whoever wrote “pig” on the cups should’ve been fired on the spot.

But, per the article, this manager isn’t the one who put “pig” on the cups.

IF this manager is telling the truth, then he handled the situation responsibly.

But, managers are often the first to be fired. That’s the way it goes, if you’re the one in charge.

[Responsibility2nd]

I’m surprised. Shocked even.

To the extent it is proclaiming itself a tranny.

Wouldn’t that alone trigger much more gofundme money???

[mom aka the evil dictator]

I am calling BS, amazing how that story keeps getting more details to make it look more sympathetic to the tranny. Pretty sure the original interview didn’t include half of it’s excuses. Grow up! Take responsibility for your actions and maybe you will learn how to be a proper manager.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

So, who wrote Pig?

If she/he didn’t do it, then she/he shouldn’t have been fired.

[mmichaels1970]

She said she noticed the “PIG” label on a blueberry muffin on Thanksgiving morning during the store’s “rush hour.”

“I saw the label on a food item because I was like, ‘No, that’s not right,'” Rose recalled. “I jumped into action, apologized, then I thanked him for his time and for his service.”

Rose said the officer told her it was “no big deal” and that he was a longtime friend of the employee.

The barista had used the opportunity to pull a prank on another co-worker in the store, she said.

“The barista was trying to play a joke on her co-worker to see if this co-worker would call these drinks out [as ‘Pig’],” Rose said.

Rose said she was unaware that five cups handed to the officer also had “PIG” labels, otherwise she would have replaced them, she said.

I don't care about the whole gender thing. If what she is saying is true, then it was completely unfair. The story should be easy enough to corroborate.

People are a bunch of offended little babies these days, whether you're a lib, cop, whoever.

She's right. They COULD have been handled this like adults. Instead, the chief would rather capitalize on the opportunity to play the victim on social media.

[Morgana]

Wonder if he will get away with this because he is a cross dresser now?

[moovova]

"Rose, who is a transgender college student..."

Note the 5 o'clock shadow...

[conservative98]

But what did the manager do afterwards? Give the cop a muffin and tell the person she hired don’t do that. If they wrote an insult to a black man or a transgender, I bet she and Starbucks would have fired them on the spot.

[conservative98]

Scary.
