Waiter axed for handing receipt to diners calling them the N-word: ‘Shocked and in disbelief’

A Virginia waiter has been canned after giving a couple a receipt calling them the N-word.

The horrified customers were celebrating their anniversary at the Crazy Crab in Fairfax on Saturday when their receipt had the racial slur typed at the bottom next to the phrase “poquito poquito,” Spanish for “a little bit,” they told Fox 5 DC.

The female diner said she was “shocked and in disbelief” upon making the vile discovery.

“I really could not process what was happening in that heat of the moment,” she told the outlet, speaking anonymously and noting that she and her partner are Vietnamese and Hispanic.

“It was just shocking and upsetting. I’m very angry with the situation overall.”

The diner claimed the waiter and restaurant management initially brushed off the incident when she confronted them about it.

After no action was taken, the woman’s best friend posted the troubling receipt online — prompting management to finally fire the employee, who had only recently immigrated to the US from Asia, the outlet said.

“I’ve been to this Crazy Crab multiple times,” the victim’s friend, Soncerae Long, told the outlet.

“I’ve recommended this place to my friends. I’ve taken my mom. It’s just disappointing.”

The odd thing is that according to the article the word was typed and not part of the original print out.

How warped is America’s dialogue on race?

So warped that some prints the “n-word” on a restaurant receipt - and it becomes national news

Bizarre.

Then again, it is Fairfax County, home of those oh so tolerant liberals and their plantation dreams.

Was it the Spanish word for ‘black’ (negro) that was typed on the receipt? It was blurred out in the photo. Did the customer ask for a dish to be prepared a certain way such as a ‘blackened’ salmon or other dish and that is what the server put on the receipt in Spanish? A lot of missing details here. Unless there actual ‘double g and ‘er’ at the end, it seems like yet another hoax and attempted trolling for a payout.

Certain ethnicities are known to be lousy tippers - hence the: “poquito poquito,”.

They took offence and added the "N"-word.

Well, I am going to sound racist here, but if you were to ask, black waiters and bar tenders, what race tips the most, and which the least, THEY will say that blacks tip the least, in fact frequestly they don’t tip. So, I suspect that this was a huge party, and the tip was not included in the bill and they stiffed the waiter.

“I’ve been to this Crazy Crab multiple times,”

And she’s itching to get back.

" . . . when their receipt had the racial slur typed at the bottom . . . "

Do they really mean typed, or do they mean printed? How could it be typed? Did the waiter have access to a typewriter? I doubt it. And in many/most restaurants and businesses, the receipts are on a roll inside a machine - usually a cash register of some sort. How do you type a message on that?

That was my question too. I wonder if the couple had a preprinted stamp they use just to get out of paying tabs.

All you can eat. $59.95 per person. Crazy Krab. I think they wanted a complete refund after stuffing their faces.

But why would the waiter care?

Regards,

I guess that would make it UFOs, then.
