Why do you think there is going to be an active investigation on this and a follow up press conference briefing the public on updates? :skip: :heh:

Even if she’s right this is just a viral video of someone acting a fool inside of a fast food place

There’s no legal or societal basis for anything to come of this

And you’d be surprised, places like McDonald’s likely have a bit of leeway in this kind of thing. Probably not going to be the first priority, McDonald’s losing their workers would be a disruption to how many people in the area that visit that place daily? How many other McDonald’s gave the exact same thing going on?
Why are you upset that I have decided to wait to see what comes of this instead of picking a side to support? I will wait to see if something comes of this. If the mother is right, then I am pretty sure something later will come along and mention how that same McDonalds was raided by ICE. If she is wrong, then I will hear nothing at all.

She prolly could have went about it a better way, but that's the zone that we left in.

It's not like there isn't a history of hispanics/asians discriminating and boxing black folks out of employment opportunities.

Back in the day McDonald's jobs were desgined for teenagers to gain experience for the real world. They were not designed for middle aged Hispanics.
Not to derail but this is not true I don't know why people keep saying it

If fast food jobs were designed for teenagers they'd be closed during school hours

This is 2008 all over again, their phone is probably ringing off the hook with people checking the status of their application. I remember going to a Taco Bell/KFC doing open interviews way back then and it was packed. They cut the phone lines off a few days later, I assume because of the amount of people trying to followup.

Regardless of how that woman was acting, if that staff is really all Hispanics in the middle of Atlanta they are purposely shutting out black workers. I was thinking this was somewhere like the Bay Area at first. Even white District Managers/Regional VP's know how blatant they are with only hiring their own once a Hispanic person moves into management.
Shyt the truth is we never truly recovered from 2008

Reminds me of this Coli breh crashing out at Burger King over the same issues:



:francis:I get it, we all have to start somewhere but when I was a youngin I ended up getting supermarket gigs and some local pizza joint gigs. Meanwhile, McDonalds felt like Will Smith trying to get that stock market gig in The Pursuit of Happiness :why: ,

shyt blew my mind from then to now of how hard is it to get a gig with McDonalds. Hell, I got turned down from a Wendys gig a while back because of my beard, despite the fact that there were brehs cooking in the back with beards :francis:

Where do you get that I’m upset? :wtf: You must have conflated my reply with other voices in the thread. I am generally wondering why you think there is a basis for a full public investigation here. It’s just peculiar because there’s no basis in out society for anything like that

You’re not going to hear about McDonald’s being raided by ICE and nor is ICE going to follow up on angry TikTok videos, it might happen but if it did its not going to be an exposay* that highlights the mother’s report


Go off what you see here and trust the woman’s intuition

She is probably 100% right, she is just going about it wrong

That woman is clearly from Central America, possibly has everything in order. Probably a hard worker, good person- but mama’s daughter isn’t getting a job and she feels her baby was overlooked

Man......being ground zero during that time frame seeing businesses closing up shop, getting laid off, and hours getting gutted still raises the hairs on the back of my neck :francis: .

People talk about covid era being bad business concerning the job market, but before 2008, you could easily get a gig in a instant. It took me almost 3 years after I got laid off from my wife's father's gig as a landscaper to find a legit job. Those that spew that "there's jawbs out here" shyt, never dealt with the woes because they either got it honest, got their foot in the door at the right time, or know somebody that know somebody.

This whole long diatribe reinforces it. Why do you care so much? My position is my own. I am not in here trying to tell anyone else how to view this situation, I just mentioned how I will view it.

TYRONE GA!
Just because a black woman comes in a public location, hurl a bunch of insults/threats, get aggressive and say a bunch of shyt that may not be accurate at all or misunderstood does not mean her daughter is being discriminated against.
while true, that is a BAD LOOK when the ENTIRE WORKFORCE in there is Hispanic

Your limitations aren’t the proper measure of limitations. It takes me two seconds to type something

Initially right of the bat you felt this was in the emotional realm and that tells you where you’re at mentally with this

Like I said before, don’t take it personally - I’m a writer by nature
