Cheesecake Factory Fires 2 Employees After Incident with Trump Supporter
People ^ | 5/16/2018 | Shay Spence

The Cheesecake Factory has taken action after employees at a Miami location allegedly taunted a Trump supporter on Mother’s Day.

According to a report from The Daily Wire, 22-year-old Eugenior Joseph was intimidated by members of the restaurant’s staff for wearing a red Make America Great Again hat during dinner with his mother and girlfriend.

“I got up and went to the restroom, my girlfriend followed me, and as we were walking back, a group of [the employees] came out from the back and they just started clapping and yelling, and just screaming things at me,” Joseph told the website, adding that one employee “got behind me and another coworker came by and they were staring at each other and he fist bumped him and then he started looking at me, balling his fists, smacking his fists, trying to scare me.” The report also quotes witnesses who say that staffers threatened violence and used a racial slur in reference to Joseph, who is black.

I wouldn't wear a MAGA hat to a restaurant. Who knows what some chicken-shit leftie would do to your food.

Shouldn’t be wearing a hat if you’re sitting in a restaurant to eat, anyway. Does nobody know basic manners anymore?

And sour cream. And flour or cornstarch. But there are lots of different recipes.

The normal 8oz sized cream cheese packages. It’s a bit easier to mix if you let it soften first but a blender will make quick work of it regardless.

You should go back and let the manager know. The waiter is a thief, and should be fired. And speaking of thieves, a waitress told me once, never leave the tip area on a credit or debit receipt blank, if you left the tip on the table. always draw a line through it and write the total on the space where you would write the total, had you left a tip. She said some waitstaff would add in an amount after you leave, and steal it.

I was at work when the OJ verdict was read. We were all in a conference room with the radio/TV on speaker phone. I was shocked and the rest of the crowd turned on me like a pack of jackals.

Cheesecakes are the shabbiest chain restaurants I’ve ever been to.

Don’t disagree but times be changing it seems for good or bad.
This wasn’t a hat but rather a cap but still a head cover.

Having had credit card fraud numerous times over the last 20 years, we always pay in cash. And we do tip according to service. It’s a win-win. If the service was bad, they don’t have our name to try and do us harm. Yes, that is always a consideration in the West of the USA.

The shock effect was because there was limited internet and they never showed a picture or gave a racial breakdown of the jury, decent people everywhere expected justice.

LOL, the jokes on us!!!

To boot, I ran into that psycho twice because he moved to my neighborhood after the verdict, he actually walked in and sat next to me at a bar and commented on my Steelers cap.

He was there to meet some brunette retard, I listened to him talking to her about how they were going to dinner later in Coral Gables, he walked in front of my car about 2 weeks earlier at a local marina with his entourage that included the blonde stripper he was banging and her friends.

I gave him the finger, he just smiled and laughed.

This guy violently stabbed to death the mother of his kids (ran into his son too getting takeout at a Cuban restaurant, when they realized who he was it was on the house), and he had broads throwing themselves at him left and right.

Unbelievable.

an all-staff meeting taking place at the time

These meetings must be the high point of the day when they get to call customers names and threaten them with violence.
