A transgender woman has been sacked by Starbucks after footage showed her berating a female customer and allegedly assaulting a man who filmed the incident.
The clash broke out at a Starbucks branch near the ferry terminal of Southampton, Hampshire, on Sunday, April 30.
The 56-second clip shows the employee on the same side of the counter as the customer, arguing with her.
The person recording the incident said the woman had apparently said something 'transphobic' to upset the employee, who angrily refuses to serve her.
Footage shows the female customer saying: 'You're rude, don't ever call me transphobic, ever. You do not know me.'
In response, the transgender woman says: 'You're calling me a man, you're being transphobic, Karen. Now get out.'
'Karen' is a derisive insult imported from the US, taking aim at white, middle-aged women. Feminists have criticized it as a misogynistic term.
The conversation heats up, as the woman insists, 'do not call me transphobic'.
The transgender employee then claps in the woman's face and denies her request for a refund, adding: 'You are transphobic, now get out.'
Repeatedly, the woman is told to 'get out' and that she is 'trespassing', before the employee appears to notice a man using his smartphone filming the encounter.

Glad he got sacked. Those people are mentally unstable and shouldn’t be in positions where they’re serving the general public.
Heh! I see what you did there.
Yup. THese 'trans' flakes are the dangerous type of mentally ill.
LOL! That thing is one of those 6-ft no-hopers who gets 'read' just looking out the window.
