In reply to the discussion: Police escort cancer patient from Nashville steakhouse after he’s forced to remove hat [View all]liberalhistorian
(20,814 posts)calling the cops (seems like more and more, the cops are just being used for social control so that businesses don't have to actually use their brains and make sensible judgments, or so that they can enforce ridiculous policies like this one), was requiring a DOCTOR'S NOTE in order to wear a fucking hat when they're sick with cancer? A FUCKING DOCTOR'S NOTE? Really? Seriously? I didn't realize restaurants were elementary schools and managers were principals. Good God, a fucking doctor's note. I simply cannot believe that. Either that, or they'd put them in a separate room, away from everyone? Is not wearing a fucking hat, and having cancer, that much of a goddamn social offense? Any restaurant that would require a fucking doctor's note so as to not have to wear a goddamned hat is one that I will never set foot in or spend a penny on.
And that's another thing. This party was dropping several thousand dollars in that restaurant, no small amount in this day and age when restaurants are often endangered. The business owner who had the party there and who was paying the bill was even chewed out by the manager, who then was fucking stupid enough to call the damn cops because they didn't want to talk to people upset over their horrendous and ridiculous treatment? If I were the CEO of that company, those managers would be fired pronto and blacklisted from working in any restaurant job ever again, period.
A fucking doctor's note for a goddamned restaurant. Christ on a cracker. FUCK. THAT.
