so, the manager was chiling on break, heard the commotion but was like "fuck it, this is my break, it can wait!"?

 

[juliushandle]

Fuck going to the manager, go corporate. Sure, someone will get fired but you're likely to get dome coupons out of it.

 

[Camwi]

I think I'm going to mention it to him tomorrow. Actually, I know I am. I don't want to get people fired from their jobs because I know it's a struggle out there right now.... but this was just... come on. You can't get away with yelling faggot in a restaurant at a gay co-worker. Jesus. It's time for you to go.

The best thing you could possibly do for those idiots is get them fired, otherwise they're not going to learn their lesson and think shit like that is ok, even with a better future job. Sometimes a person has to learn the hard way.

 

[AlimNassor]

Fuck the guy man, make a formal complaint. Retail workers should not act like this in front of customers under any circumstances.

this. They deserve to be fired. I would fire them in an instant.

 

[Elchele]

You're surprised because people who work at a consumer shop/restaurant are real people?

I wouldn't talk to the manager if I was you, you said he already heard the yells and shit the employees were having so what's the point in you talking to him? What if the guy doesn't get fired and the manager points out you complained about his behavior?

Better shut up and hope it doesn't happen again, or just start to make breakfast at home like a good lad.

 

[Messofanego]

Sounds like you need to be watching some What Would You Do?

I don't ever really experience these kind of things, but as long as it's not a threat to my life, I'll keep this in mind for when it happens that I'm obligated to respond. I'm not worried if lose out on service, food, or whatever in those places.

 

[Fury Sense]

Hope the guy gets fired. Manager might thank you for your concern and reprimand them, but corporate would not settle for a half measure.

 

[solpadeine]

I try not to buy food from people who are shouting "faggot" while preparing it. I honestly can't believe someone would go through with the sale after witnessing all of that.

 

[Liberty4all]

Call/email corporate.

This is the correct answer. CC a local newspaper as well.

 

[daviyoung]

Why do people say 'fixing' food?

it's a quaint Americanism

 

[Akainu]

Bitch made? Never heard that before. What were they like? Race and the like. I want a better picture of everybody.

 

[ronito]

You kidding? Don't go to the manager. Go to corporate. The manager might ignore it or think you're just a jerk. Corporate though? They'll come down with Thors mighty hammer and it'll get fixed

 

[POWERSPHERE]

i can beleive this made you miss two ingredients...

Get well soon.

 

[IISANDERII]

Weakened economy? Seems like the Republicans intentionally grenaded the economy so bigots could get sympathy and not be fired from their jobs for abuse so marginalization would become more palletable in the long term.

Get him fired, somebody who's not a bigot could use that job.

"The Lord works through man."

 

[teruterubozu]

Seriously should have just told them to forget it and walk out.

That's what I would have done. I guess OP really wanted that sandwich.

 

[A Human Becoming]

You kidding? Don't go to the manager. Go to corporate. The manager might ignore it or think you're just a jerk. Corporate though? They'll come down with Thors mighty hammer and it'll get fixed

I agree with this. If you REALLY want to make sure this is addressed, go above his head.

 

[The Librarian]

Why do people say 'fixing' food?

Because the food isn't working as a full meal yet.

 

[SummitAve]

Oh fuck off, you and the OP don't know these people or the relationships they have with eachother. You think having their kids/families going hungry or losing their home is a good lesson of discipline for the adult?

Also OP if you don't want them to get fired then don't talk to the manager. Just get on with your life, you're presuming too much.

 

[poppabk]

Bitch made? Never heard that before. What were they like? Race and the like. I want a better picture of everybody.

Yeah I am not sure why the girl isn't getting called out for that as well. (or the OP if that is his phrase).

 

[nullset2]

Subway

There's your problem.

Really now, it sounds like there's some bad milk around that workplace. Expect to see new faces there soon. Any semi-decent manager would do so. It was despicable but don't take it to heart, really... or you may want to get something else for breakfast from now on, dunno.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Is this a joke? How do you expect someone to get through the day without eating?

OP did say its his breakfast and lunch, and he doesn't eat for another 9+ hours. What the hell, do you not get a lunch break, op? Do you work in some dungeon?

 

[K' Dash]

So I'm assuming you didn't eat that sandwich... born of hate it was...

This.

 

[Dizzle24]

amazing.

 

[Koppai]

Take your breakfast/lunch to work with you? There are coolers and ice paks.

Also, next time say something to the people, then report it to the manager...usually there is a manager on duty (and I think it's a law). If it was the manager doing this shit, go to the district manager.

 

[shuri]

Sorry but if you don't report this, you are basically condoning hate and gay bashing. The fact that you are doing nothing about speaks volume about yourself; you should be ashamed. Please contact Subway (http://www.subway.com/ContactUs/frmCustomerService.aspx) and please denounce what you have seen or heard. It seems you missed out on two ingredients so your Subway experience was degraded and also you were exposed to agitation and loud screamings. Something has to be done. Speak out.

 

[Camwi]

Holy crap, what kind of bizarro world did you come from? Shitty work behavior like that needs to be nipped in the bud as soon as possible, not only for their own good, but for the good of the business.

Also, don't speak about starving families and lost homes and then chastise the OP for "presuming too much."

 

[Starviper]

Call corporate. Seriously, that's something i'd never tolerate and you might as well get a gift card for your troubles.

 

[-Deimos]

Its calling me.

 

[Futureman]

I probably woulda walked out. Subway being your only option for food for 9 hours doesn't make any sense. But I won't dwell on that.

 

[robotzombie]

i can beleive this made you miss two ingredients...

Get well soon.

That really made me laugh

 

[LuchaShaq]

I can't imagine standing their quiet lmao. Should have told him to go fuck himself and bounced out.

 

[RM8]

What an awkward situation. I would have yelled at him to stop being an idiot and finish my sandwich already.

 

[Count Dookkake]

Disgusting behavior... not taking immediate action.

Do the right thing; get this loser fired.

 

[Kid Ska]

Fuck going to the manager, go corporate. Sure, someone will get fired but you're likely to get dome coupons out of it.

Damn. I'd love to get some coupons for dome. Seems a little raunchy for Subway but hey.

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

He should have thought about his hungry family before he opened his stupid mouth and treated others like shit. He can fuck right off if he thinks he can be a terrible person to others without consequence.

 

[btkadams]

you really should talk to the manager. i could understand not saying anything in the moment because something as fucked as that could leave me pretty speechless out of shock.

 

[crozier]

It sounds like whatever you walked into between those two had been going on a long time.

 

[Halcyon]

Getting this person fired will help them in life. They will maybe realize you can't act like this and hold a job.

 

[ronito]

seriously? I have a family to feed too. You know what I do? I don't call my coworkers offensive names. Why? Because I don't want to get my ass fired

 

[crozier]

Keep in mind that even if you intend to only get him fired, there's an excellent chance she'll be shown the door too. There's no telling what her role in all this is. It doesn't like sound (although I could be wrong) a simple case of someone picking on someone else for their sexuality. The conflict may be rooted in something completely different.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

I'm reminded of Dave Chappell's Pop Copy skit.

I would have walked out, even if it was playful banter between the two of them, I don't want to be served by people who don't feel the need to be professional when surrounded by customers. Unless it's my barber shop, and even they tone down the profanity when there are newbies and children present.

 

[Barbacoatl]

My baby kid was very mortified by your story, I think I'm taking a break from gaf.

 

[cheststrongwell]

You can get some free subs out of this shit,yo!

 

[gutshot]

I just can't get over the fact that you are eating Subway for breakfast (and lunch, apparently) every day for the past 4 months. You know they have things called grocery stores, right?

 

[Professor Renegade]

I'm really curious to see if you're going to complain OP, people like that shouldn't get away with shit like this.

 

[sappyday]

Call corporate if you really think the lad deserves to get fired. I've had two co-workers get fired because customers took advantage of corporate for something that really wasn't a big issue.

Edit: As for me I would get him fired asap. Even though I'm close to becoming a manager at a Subway I still don't value that job at all and it's basically exists in order to sustain my college fees and leisure stuff.

 

[-PXG-]

You do realise many don't have the confidence/just don't want to get involved. They can still have an opinion on the matter.

"Hey. Can you finish making my sandwich please?"

Not hard

 

[zer0blivion]

Call/email corporate.

I second this advice. http://www.subway.com/ContactUs/frmCustomerService.aspx

Yeah considering she was using derogatory bigoted speech in front of a customer she will likely get fired to.

 

[Indrid Cold1]

OP is going back tomorrow alright... for his breakfast sarnie that is. Bet you don't say shit to the manager.
