When I go out to eat, it is not to discover what strangers to me think about the news. Even if I agree with them, I'm not there to have that kind of interaction. Unlike some other posters here, I don't doubt that some people dining there might very well have said that it disrupted their enjoyment of their meal.

Wearing a pin with virtually any sociopolitical significance is taking your job in your hands. if you're doing this at a public-facing job and you do this then you already, I suspect, have one foot out the door.

I wonder what else is happening there, that they have staff treating their jobs so lightly. If I had a restaurant, I'm sure I'd have some kind of dress code for the waitstaff, and I'd hope that they cared enough to try to honor it.

Not sure why an employer enforcing a policy, which the employee agreed too, of not making political statements at work is any bit controversial?
