This is beyond sad!!

Teenage waitress receives racist insult in tip section of receipt | theGrio

by Carrie Healey | September 9, 2013 at 3:29 PM

Toni Christina Jenkins, a server at a Tennessee Red Lobster, received a racist slur in the tip section of a receipt from costumers.


The 19-year-old nursing student posted a photo of the receipt to her Facebook page, but it has since been removed. The receipt shows that the ”none” was written on the tip line, and that “******” was written on the total line.

So in a country with 300 million people in it, with interracial homicides being routine, this is beyond sad?


Edit : There ya go my dutiful copy editors.

Yes. She's a teenager. If she was an adult, okay but she's only 19y/o.

Keep the kids out of it!

she is an adult. 18=adult. 19=been an adult for a year. also, most of these people posting receipts to social media turn out to be fabrications. remember the 1% tip story. it's all BS.

If true, that is certainly naughty. However, did one ever think that perhaps the teen penned that herself? Was there an analysis of the handwriting?

I'd say with 99.99999% certainty that the customer DID NOT write the slur part, unless they're have some split personality that causes them to write with two completely different styles. More likely another media ***** looking for attention.
