Over the weekend an outrageously-disturbing account of a Chipotle manager’s firing came to light.

A group of “ethnic” people went into a CMG where they had dined and “dashed” — that is, left without paying, in the past.  The employees demanded evidence of payment before making their food.

The group was taping the confrontation and uploaded it on Youtube, slandering the restaurant.

In response the company immediately, without investigation, fired the manager.

A while later they offered her job back to her — after it came out that there were multiple posts on social media by the people who accused her stating not only their intent to steal but celebrating their previous acts of doing so.

The manager should refuse the “kind offer” of the company and sue for both slander and wrongful dismissal.

Take $10 million from these clowns and never work again.

But for those who are customers make yourself an ex-customer.  Now and forevermore.

See, a lawsuit by the manager is simply a cost of doing business for the company.  What needs to occur in these instances is a full-on revolt by the public — a statement that if you pull this crap and play the racism card where no evidence of same exists, without doing the work to substantiate your action first your company will be destroyed.

No redemption, no second chances, you’re done.

Racism is a terrible, ugly thing.  There’s nothing one can do about individual racists because everyone has a right to be a prick, including a racist prick.

But nobody has a duty to associate with such a prick.  When racism is practiced on an institutional basis that firm should be destroyed outright.
