https://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/lifestyle-buzz/pizza-hut-worker-calls-cops-on-black-customer-after-refusing-to-believe-she-already-paid-online-viral-tiktok-allegedly-shows/ar-AARGIH4Deaisha Thompson (@deaishamariee) filmed and posted the video, and it has since received over 54,000 views and 3,300 likes.
The caption of the clip reads: "Pizza Hut worker calls the police on me to have me removed for not wanting to pay him another $34 when I already paid."
The text overlay reads, "Pizza Hut worker calls the police on me because I won't pay him another $34 and wouldn't give me my food. The other worker ended up giving me my food."
The Pizza Hut worker is on the phone, allegedly with the police. "I have a customer here that claims that she paid online," he says to the person on the other line.
She chimes in to say: "With a customer service representative. Gave him my card number."
He swiftly walks away from the counter.
"Like, how is this my fault?" Thompson says. "How am I refusing to pay? I already paid. He was rude when I came up in here."

A commenter said, "Y'all don't understand this type of technology is above him. That man was born in 1902 fr." Another commenter wrote, "They relied on police to keep people of color in line back in the day, and they still do it today."

This is terrible p.r., and companies HATE that. Dude will probably be looking for a new job soon, if he's not already.

That guy has worked his last shift for PH.
