Dunkin’ Donuts Cracks Down On Illegal Workers

Well, if nothing else this might take some of the protest pressure off of Chick-fil-A.

Dunkin’ Donuts (who we’re technically supposed to just call “Dunkin” now, but that’s not going to happen) has been on a bit of a blitz campaign over the past few months. They’ve been canceling their franchise agreements with a number of franchisees, primarily in the northeast, and moving to boot them out of the premises. Why would they do that? Because an internal review found that several of those outlets were failing to properly verify the citizenship status and legal right to work of their employees. Those found to not be using E-Verify as is specified in the franchise agreements were targeted for removal. (Washington Examiner)

The world famous doughnut maker Dunkin’, outraged that some franchises are not using the required E-Verify system to make sure its workers are documented, has moved to oust the owners and take over the restaurants.

According to several reports, the Massachusetts-based breakfast and lunch restaurant, which recently changed its name from Dunkin’ Donuts, has sued to stop those franchise owners from operating.

The most recent suits were filed in Delaware and Pennsylvania, “amid what appears to be a crackdown on franchisees employment verification practices,” according to Restaurant Business.

First of all, allow me to just say good for Dunkin’ Donuts. I’m particularly pleased to see them doing the right things because that’s where I always go for coffee when we’re out on the road. Their coffee is so much better than that burnt-tasting garbage you get from Starbucks. And their breakfast sandwiches are pretty good too. I installed their mobile app on my phone last year and it’s seen plenty of use.

So is the company doing this because they’re patriotic or just to cover their own butts? Who cares? It doesn’t really matter because either is a completely valid reason. If the stores are found to be stocked with illegal aliens working off the books, I’m not sure whether the corporation pays the fines or the franchise owner does, but it still puts a black mark on their name. Since they weren’t advertising this publicly, I assume it wasn’t part of a marketing campaign. (They declined to comment when asked about the story.)

Now for the downside. You just know that as soon as word of this spreads, the open borders advocates on the left will be organizing boycotts of Dunkin. They’ll be chanting something about xenophobia, racism or equal employment opportunity for all, ignoring the fact that you’re not allowed to hire illegal aliens. In that sense, they’ll be put on the naughty list by liberals so they risk winding up in the same boat as Chick-fil-A.

But hey… that’s really not bad company to keep. So now, if you’re planning on some tasty chicken sandwiches for lunch, you can start your day with a couple of donuts to hold you over.

But Joe Biden said you can’t go in a Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.

I never knew if he meant the people who work there, or the customers need to have an Indian accent.

Love their coffee and would like to try their sandwiches. Too bad the closest one is 15 miles away.

[dfwgator]

Well the good news is that the cops are already there to escort them out.

RE: But Joe Biden said you can’t go in a Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.

We have a Dunkin Donuts almost every 2 to 3 miles in NYC and in Long Island. Yes, the proprietors are mostly Indians.

It’s as if someone told one of his family about how profitable the franchise it and they told their friends and so on...

[mad_as_he$$]

Around here it is the 7-11’s that are owned/managed by Indians.

Best hot chocolate ever!

Good! Those are entry level jobs meant for teen just starting out, seniors who need the supplemental cash, and college students working their way through school.

Now if only some of the othe fast food places cared about Americans more than foreigners.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Every business needs to required to use E-verify.

The only reason it is not mandatory is Bush League Republicans do not want US sending the people they invited here against our will back home.

SJW’s boycotting Dunkin’ Donuts in 3...2...1 - BOOM!

Prediction: Dunkin’ Donuts sales ‘unexpectedly rise’ dramatically...

[Rio]

I rarely encounter one of these places.

But what is it with shortening the names lately?

KFC?

DQ is no longer Dairy Queen?

[ExTxMarine]

In Texas, it’s HOTELS!

[mad_as_he$$]

Not just Texas, it is a nationwide thing.

Carls Jr. / Hardees has required E-Verify be used for years.

[Flavious_Maximus]

Nearly every single Dunkin Doughnuts in southeastern Pennsylvania is run by Asian Indians.

They are now 5% of the population.

There’s a no-name quick stop convenience store near me here in North Idaho. Stopped in for a quart of milk for the first time a couple months ago and, sure enough, the clerk was Indian. There are very few other nationalities hereabouts, so I had to chuckle at the stereotype proven true. The young lady was very kind and helpful.

Huh?

How does Dunkin’ Donuts crack down on illegals?

DD hired them.

[rjsimmon]

DD hired them.

The difference between a corporation enforcing their policies and local hiring practices.

[Kickass Conservative]

>>>”amid what appears to be a crackdown on franchisees employment verification practices,”<<<

No, it’s because they are Violating their Franchise Agreements.

The women accused of drinking water from toilets are so backward, they didn’t know they were toilets.
