The Washington Attorney General’s Office has fired a senior criminal investigator over his alleged behavior at a Tacoma restaurant. A server there said the investigator stiffed her on her tip for wearing a Black Lives Matter (BLM) button.

Good idea. Two-cent tip so they understand you didn’t simply forget the tip.

This is exactly why 'better' restaurants don't allow their staff to wear paraphernalia garb.

I imagine the investigator is an at will employee, but I would see a lawyer anyway.

Could be he has legal recourse for a wrongful termination.

There is no law saying you have to tip a waiter. If you tell them why you are actually doing them a favor.

Staying there to be served was a mistake.

Upon seeing the BLM button when server was taking order, he should have gotten up and said “I’ve changed my mind”, and then gotten up to leave. If asked “why” he should have only said “I won’t answer that”.

Staying to eat there is consent. Arguing with server over the button or even mentioning it in any way was foolish.

Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson likes to sue the Trump administration. He’s done it now a total of 80 times — a rate of nearly once every other week since Donald Trump took office.

They asked for their check after a single round of drinks, she said.

Steiger had scrawled on the $46.74 receipt, “BLM Button = No Tip” and “That’s How Socialism Works.”

Capitalism is $46.74 for a single round of drinks.

Another thought here is that this investigator must be a regular. The waiter knows who he is and what his job is.

If this was my restaurant, I would have to fire this waiter because he sued one of my best customers.

It’s not good for business.

OOPS

I meant to say that the waiter got one of my best customers fired.

Sorry no grounds for it. Off the clock. Not at work and free speech. Unless theres a law that says tups are mandatory by public employees, the FO!

"Consent" to what? Not a contract, he doesn't have to tip. Period.
