Minhee, a recent customer at the Papa John’s Pizza location on 3477 Broadway in New York City, was given this receipt for her transaction. As you can see, an employee took the liberty of renaming her “lady chinky eyes.”
An employee who, no doubt, will soon be out of a job.
Conveniently, the restaurant’s contact information is right there on the receipt. If you’ve got a moment, free to give them a call (212-368-7272) to discuss topics like pizza, customer service and racial mockery.
Between this and the Chick-Fil-A “ching” and “chong” incident, I’m going to have to start examining my fast food receipts more carefully.
UPDATE: The Huffington Post and NY Daily News have picked up on this.
The Papa John’s store owner blames the teenage employee’s behavior on “modern culture,” whatever that means, and says he plans to have “sensitivity trainings” to avoid situations like this in the future. That’s it? Meanwhile, the employee who called a customer a “chink” remains on the payroll?via angryasianman
the fact that the employee hasn’t been fired is fucking outrageous. the store owner should be ashamed of himself.
*update: @papajohns has confirmed that the employee has indeed now been terminated.
