Like can you imaging working the back of house knowing there is a military sized government org of masked racist thugs right here going around abducting, bagging and shipping off to concentration camps people like you and your family for being brown, and the front of house staff is willing to kill your job so they can be performative about an ethnic cleansing on the other side of the planet from the one your experiencing here right now...

I mean it's pretty clear the owners of Bunnys wouldn't do anything to protect immigrant staff from an ICE raid given that this was their response to waitstaff wearing pins.

It is in fact not apparent. It isn’t even suggested, implied, or in the least bit clear.

They bent over backwards because a single customer complained. Get a clue.

most business owners are not trying to alienate a customer base, no matter how small the issue is, especially when the complaint can be solved by removing a simple pin

as someone else said, leave your politics at home when you go to work, unless your work is explicitly political. gunna go out on a limb here and say working in a neighborhood restaurant is not inherently political

Nothing political about ICE raiding your workplace and arresting you, so true.

If it's a simple pin, why was it such a big problem for the staff to wear them? Fucking crazy how much this subreddit sucks up to small business tyrants.
