@NyWriterDude,

Please do me a favor and do whatever you would like. I would appreciate it if you did.

No where did I ever say I was a recruiter. I'm a receptionist and as noted, I answered the phone. That's what I do. The person who said YO even knew that response was wrong. That's why the person immediately rebounded with this response: OMG! Had I known you were a live person, I would have greeted you differently.

Not sure who ever greets a person with YO to get a job. First impressions are everything and clearly its everything at Starbucks for some managers.

Do as you'd like. Keep me posted on your traction. Also, please copy and paste where I said I was a recruiter as my occupation? Receptionist do administrative work and that includes handling inquiries from potential candidates. I don't get involved with the hiring process. I just receive resumes if that happens to be the inquiry type and pass it to the appropriate parties.

It doesn't have to be clean cut. Nothing wrong with facial hair, but it should managed properly so it doesn't look like a mess. Similar to the Starbucks incident. I think the corn rolls or twists had negative connotations. Also, have you noticed people with curly hair always say they wish they had straight hair and constantly relax their hair to get straight hair, or put grease on their hair to make it straight and manageable? I wonder what that's about? Any insight since you're full of pee and vinegar?

Starbucks is just trying to make this go away. They care about profits. Nothing more nothing less.

Oh, I think you are recruiter AlexaMatthews who has now all of a sudden become just the plain receptionist, or you spruced up your LinkedIn. Or you might be someone impersonating her.

"Alexa" works at a major tech company, and I cannot imagine her employer is happy that her name is being used to say some extremely offensive things on City Data, which could damage her brand. If you're trolling and using her name, think legal liability.

Thanks for keeping things real. Your response makes total sense to someone with a real job and is not free lancing as a writer.

NyWriterDude just gets off on playing devils advocate just for the sake of shooting someone down to feel better about ones self.

All the important stuff I mentioned he completely completely ignored cause he knows it is true and cant contest it. Now he's accusing me in being a lesbian.

Where did I say otherwise?

For a company to take this degree of responsibility means they admit the manager is wrong, and they are trying to salvage their brand. Otherwise people would boycott the company.

Also no company wants employees that put them in the news in a bad way.

Is your real name NyWriterDude? Think legal liability. Someone would not be happy about you using their name.

I already told you, do me a favor and report it. Also, copy and paste where i write that I'm a recruiter.

If all you are is a receptionist, what would you know about important stuff? You might get yourself an education so you can do more than answer the phones.

Because a receptionist isn't qualified to give out any advice when they can't get hired at substantial jobs themselves.

Don't forget to report PierrePont while you're at it. That's a very common French name. Think legal liability.

I never claimed to know stuff. I have no shame in being a receptionist. That is why I only answer phones/inquires and pass important work to people who do them, and to people who make the big bucks. I don't do anything with resumes but pass it along to the qualified person (a manager) who does the hiring.

I don't do hiring of any kind, nor am I qualified to do it.

Do you think I'm qualified to use a maxi pad when I go through my cycle every 28 days?
