Exactly, and the job of policing the franchise owners falls to Denny's Management.
The worst thing a franchise food chain can do is allow it's franchise owners to destroy the brand. It's like a cancer that spreads and taints all of the locations to some extent, even the well run restrauants.
McDonalds is particularly vigilant. A Big Mac tastes the same in Cleveland as it does in Miami. Denny's could take a lesson from their consistency. From what I see now, eating at Denny's now is something of a crapshoot.
It's hard to determine what's beef and what's road kill.
Tell you what. If subsequent investigations prove this to be true and deliberate, charges for attempted murder against the offender should be filed immediately.
Oh c'mon, dare to answer your own question. I think you know exactly what would happen: that same fire-breathing spokesman would come out, just as unassuming and sheepishly as you please, using phrases like "deeply regretting" any "offense" to the aggreived black customers and stressing how they pride themselves on a "diverse" workforce. Then they would decline to contest the matter in court, opting instead for a fat check-writing session and the hiring of some "racial sensitivity" consultant!
Until these corporate empty suits, who will fight tooth and nail any regulations on labor, the environment, et cetera, cease to be a herd of invertebrates around the "civil rights" racketeers, I will find it difficult to feel sorry for them.
Tell me about it. I was at one with some friends when I lived in Dayton, and our waiter was high. He kept getting our orders wrong, and seemed to be in a complete daze.
We all got up and left - we were scared to see what our orders were going to look like.
At another Denny's in downtown Dayton, the place was filled up with some very loud blacks. In walked a bunch of white bikers, and there was trash talking back and forth. We got the hell out of there.
I have written Denny's off of my list. Cracker Barrel is the place to go. They are also being sued by the NAACP, so I make it a point to support them.
BWAAAAAHAHAHAHA... I'm sorry dude, that just looks funny the way you wrote it... Hehehe...
Hahaha... Not the place I go to, dude... Those hardcore kitchen dudes just don't GIVE a flying rat's a$$...
That's how our local Denny's(s) are too...Most of ours have become hangouts for the gays and goth freaks. They can have it as far as I'm concerned.
The food is bad, though, and the service is so awful that you have to laugh about it.
This book alone will make you reconsider that nice meal out at a restaurant- and he was writing about some of the better restaurants around (3-Star and up)!
At the very least, resist ordering anything that could contain scraps from other diners tables (meatloaf, chicken croquettes, bread pudding, the list goes on...). And NEVER order fish on a Tuesday!
Anybody who would spit on someone's food instead of either ignoring their bad behavior or getting the manager to handle it is too immature to be working with the public, IMO. That was also the prevailing attitude among the people I worked with back then, too.
