Arby's Apologizes After Employee Reportedly Refuses to Serve Pembroke Pines Officer
NBC News Miami ^ | Sept. 2, 2015 | NBC News

The head of Arby's restaurant chain has apologized to the Pembroke Pines Police Department after an employee at a local restaurant reportedly refused to serve a uniformed officer.

Arby's Chief Executive Officer, Paul Brown, and Senior Vice President of Operations, Scott Boatwright, contacted PPPD Chief Dan Giustino to apologize on behalf of the organization, according to a police report.

Both men assured Giustino that the employee's behavior was "unacceptable" and did not represent the company's values.

Giustino accepted the apology, and the department considers the matter closed.

In a Facebook post Tuesday, another officer alleged that on Monday, a fellow uniformed officer was denied service at the Arby's located at 11755 Pines Boulevard near the Pembroke Lakes Mall.

"Real nice, Arby's" the post says, before encouraging others to boycott the restaurant.

According to Facebook (take that as you will), the manager backed up the employee in the refusal of service.

If Arby’s really means it, they would revoke the franchise.

Any bets on whether Arby’s charitable foundation gives money to groups that indirectly support Black Lives Matter?

If true, then Arby's should do everything they can to defranchise the owner unless he cleans house!

No mention as to the race of the Arby’s employee, but a description is hardly needed. No doubt it’s another “gentle giant” type.

You can just feel the escalation of anarchy and racial tensions thanks to Obama, Sharpton, Farrakhan and their supporters in the Left.

This is going to get out of hand real fast.

If I were a uniformed officer I would never buy any food or coffee from public establishments period. Too many assholes in the world that think it’s cool to spit in or leave pubes or otherwise nasty stuff to cop’s food/drink. Not worth the risk. Pack a lunch and bring a thermos.

Lets hope the officer remembers his oath to LAY DOWN HIS LIFE for the Arbyidiot if anyone threatens it. (IDIOTES = gk. someone who acts in public like theyre in private.)

Perhaps they could fire Sh’Queena. The employee who denied service.

Are you sure there isn’t another apostrophe between the second e and the n?

If Arby’s pulls the franchise, then maybe the owner and the manager & employee can sit down an have a little heart-to-heart conversation about the matter.

I rarely, if ever, eat fast food - and I will never buy it in the inner city.

Far too many internet videos out there of fast food workers messing with people’s food.

If I was a cop, there is NO WAY I’d eat at that restaurant. I’d be wondering what happened to, or what unwanted ingredient was put on, the sammich someone was forced to make, and sell me.
