Why would the employee say, out loud, that he would mess with their food, so the customers who were also Police could her him?

Maybe he's just not too bright, but still.

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Are people wanting to start a war or something? This is stupid.

This the exact type of fucked up Mentality that allow police to go out murdering people.

At worst the guy should be getting a displinary.

But you want to equate it to pearl habour.

Incredibly bad choice of words and a shitty attitude to boot.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

Saved them from disappointment and probably stomach issues. Good on those kids.

 

[LosDaddie]

Hope they get fired.

But sure, let's wait for the whole story 😊

 

[Ray Wonder]

By denying them delicious Taco Bell?!

Probably knew that the food was expired or something, and wanted to save them. The narrative has been painted how it is though. Poor kid.

 

[bill0527]

Wait, why are some of us assuming that the conversation of tampering with food was true?

I may be stretching here, but I assume YUM BRANDS have these things called cameras in their stores and that they did an investigation before making a public statement.

 

[EmeraldSwords]

Such news. Much Care.

 

[Brqan]

Let's wait for the whole story.

Yeah, after chronic mistreating and murdering, people are wanting to start a war by denying cops Taco Bell.

We only have the police offers word for this chain of events and they generally haven't proven themselves to be reliable when relaying stories, so I think it would be prudent to wait for more information.

They should be put on paid leave while the investigation proceeds.

I heard the Cops may have been high on caffeine and matched a description of a group of gang members that have been harassing that location, so I imagine the worker might have just mistaken them for dangerous criminals and was just afraid for his life, an understandable reaction. I think it is best we not judge the worker too harshly. Besides I doubt the cops were angels.

Tell us how you really feel.

"You asked for a couple of ice cubes in your drink... and I only put in one."

I've soiled the good name of Krusty Krab. Soiled it! Soiled it. Soiled it.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

I'd have fired the employee easily if it went down like that. Even joking about messing with food is too much.

Oh and cops shouldn't murder either.

 

[legbone]

Look, I'm not one to stand up for the police. Hell, I was practically raised being told to beware of the cops (I'm not black, I was raised poor) because they are not on your side, and sadly most cops have proven me right. But this shit is ridiculous. I don't see any difference between not serving these guys because of the uniform they wear and not serving them because they were black, muslim, homosexual, etc. I'm so glad to see hypocrisy is not dead. I'm guessing the workers at Taco Bell were probably teenage idiots and if not, then they are mentally (ie arrested development).

 

[*Splinter]

When the police murder someone we get an investigation and hearing (that usually results in a paid holiday for the cop) and when a fast food employee refuses to serve a cop they should be fired immediately?

Amazing stuff.

Cops that murder people should be fired and jailed.

This kid should also be fired.

Oh my wasn't that difficult.

 

[linsivvi]

Hopefully the Taco Bell employees get fired. That's not acceptable behaviour.

Desk duty for 30 days seems to be the norm.

Oh wait we aren't talking about cops murdering innocent people? My bad.

Wait, why are some of us assuming that the conversation of tampering with food was true?

Exactly.

 

[Guevara]

What a bunch of idiots.

 

[Servbot24]

Why would you spend energy hoping that a guy in a Taco Bell you've never been to gets fired

 

[bengraven]

To set an example that this kind of behavior is not professional and that Taco Bell does not support it?

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Ding ding ding!

 

[Falchion]

Screw those employees. Everyone deserves delicious Taco Bell.

 

[Subpar Scrub]

The hate for cops seems to be huge, even on here.

What do you mean "even on here"? Gaf is a central hub for cop hate lmao.

[IndoAssassin]

Because proper food is more moral and ethical than murdering another human being.

 

[Couleurs]

Future headline: Taco Bell internal investigation concludes no wrong doing by Taco Bell employees

 

[Ray Wonder]

It's a thread about a Taco Bell employee. Expressing your opinion on what should happen is expected? I don't understand the line of thought that leads you to ask a question like this on a discussion board. Especially since most, if not all, of the people that we discuss we've never met, and haven't been to their place of employment.

 

[Tecnniqe]

Yeah. All cops are the same didn't you know?

 

[PartTimeWarrior]

Be realistic. Not every single cop is some maniac with a badge and gun.

Anyways, the employees should be fired. Refusing service plus threatening to mess with someone's food

 

[entremet]

Petty and stupid.

 

[What did he mean by this?]

I'll wait for all the facts to come out first

 

[Tigress]

I may be stretching here, but I assume YUM BRANDS have these things called cameras in their stores and that they did an investigation before making a public statement.

Still, easier to throw your easily replaced employees under a bus than try to claim a cop is lieing.

Also Corporate in general just tends to take the customer's word for it and they may or may not have cameras (I work retail, we don't have cameras).

Anyways, if the employee did say he wanted to mess with the cops food I'm sure he will get fired. May get fired even if cop is lying (and customers do lie or twist what was said and can be unreasonable. We are only hearing one side). So I hope if he gets fired it was justified.

 

[BronsonLee]

I have no idea why people are comparing this to other situations cops have been involved in

I mean it's amusing to do it but it makes no damn sense

 

[jond76]

Am I missing then information that these cops killed someone and that's why they are being denied service?

Or is anti-cop GAF just generalizing the shit out of all cops. Again.

And I thought his comment was dumb..😏

This. I'm no cop lover. I do think something is wrong with our law enforcement enforcing the law, but doing "something" to the food is to much.

 

[Camwi]

Let's wait for the whole story.

Underappreciated post.

 

[DragonSworne]

Yep. Who knows what "messing with" could have meant.

Disgusting. People like that don't deserve to work in the food industry.

I think they should be put on paid leave until we get full investigation.

 

[Christopher]

For how liberal this forum is denying someone any service based on a broad brush is funny to watch.

They did them a favor anyway stop eating shitty fast food...Taco Bell doesn't offer anything remotely healthy does it?

Just because we're liberal doesn't mean we're not entitled.

What society wants.

Hope they get suspended with pay.

What society will receive.

 

[Trike]

Should have let them do it. Taco Bell fucks up my order all the time. Maybe they'd fuck up their fuck-up and you'd get something straight out of a commercial.

[RionaaM]

Nah, it's more about love of life.

Of course, messing with someone's food is wrong. The workers should have told them they weren't going to serve them instead.

Look, I'm not one to stand up for the police. Hell, I was practically raised being told to beware of the cops (I'm not black, I was raised poor) because they are not on your side, and sadly most cops have proven me right.

I'm guessing the workers at Taco Bell were probably teenage idiots and if not, then they are mentally (ie arrested development).

Being black is not a choice, and it doesn't give someone privileges like a badge does.

Yeah. All cops are the same didn't you know?

You're right, it's not like the institution is rotten to the core.

"You asked for a couple of ice cubes in your drink... and I only put in one."

The twist is that it's a little block of frozen semen.

 

[Kinitari]

Even if this is how it went down, this seems like a non story. Small town cashier at taco Bell doesn't like cops, talks about wanting to mess with them within earshot. Cops leave establishment. More at 11. Oh, wait, no more? That's the whole story?

 

[RPGCrazied]

Messing up an order is fine and I usually pay it no heed. But what if you find like a band aid or fingernail in your food?

Don't take chances when fast food employees say what this man said.

 

[Cesare Borgia]

We're seriously debating whether people should do their job and provide services to paying customers?

The whole situation is cliche anyway. Fast food workers have always been messing with cops since forever.

The only difference now is how many people are rushing in to defend the cops.

 

[tycoonheart]

Cry me a river.

Are we talking about taco bell employees or cops because in 2016, I don't know anymore

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Why do I have a feeling the cops lied about that kid saying he's going to mess with them?

Oh well, the evidence will show what really happened.

I think think the kid should be fired but only after suspension with pay.
