Better Ingredients. Better Pizza. Racist Cashiers. Papa John's

[finnns2003]

Papa John's Pizza fired a cashier at one of its New York restaurants and apologized to an Asian-American customer for a receipt that identified her as "lady #+%%*% eyes."
"We were extremely concerned to learn of the receipt issued in New York," the company said in a statement posted on its Facebook page Saturday.

Minhee Cho, a communications manager at nonprofit investigative journalism group ProPublica, posted a photo of the receipt on her Twitter account Saturday morning and by the afternoon it was picked up by a local newspaper.

Along with the receipt, Cho tweeted "just FYI my name isn't 'lady #+%%*% eyes.'"

Sheesh.

Cho was a customer Friday night at the Papa John's on Broadway in Manhattan's Hamilton Heights neighborhood, according to the receipt.

Real life...

Why would an NY'er go to papa johns?
Isnt authenic new york pizza from a local place 100x better than a franchise type spot?

 

[nachobroadweezy]

1 bad/uneducated employee within a large corporation.  No reason to stop eating Papa Johns.

Don't be silly. Unless you have more than just this to make that choice...

Is it racist? yes.

But in a real restaurant you better believe they "label" you by race when it comes to servers, its how they remember you (as sad as it is)

...and Papa Johns:x

Its not the first time this has happened at a PJ.

Someone is about to get a nice chunk of change.

I doubt she gets anything more than a year's worth of pizza.
