Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Business.

Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

wow, why do you lie so blatantly?

Okay, so then you weren't saying it was a good move. Did you miss 'Not a ...' or something?

I've explained to you - nothing past your first intelligible sentence will be read unless you are capable of writing out a coherent paragraph.

1.) LMAO nope What was a good move is what "I" actually described and what has factually happened that we know of. "YOUR" invented, dishonest, retarded, kneejerk strawmen is meaningless to what I actual and factually said. :)
2.) and I explained to you that your deflections are transparent. They are just s smoke screen in the hopes of hiding your posts getting completely owned by me and facts
Your post fails and facts win again

Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

It is what some would say are unintended consequences. The reason it was handled this way was that DQ knew that not responding in that way would likely result in nationwide protests that would have resulted in profit loss. Given that every franchise has a hotline to report incidents like this it is ridiculous not to assume they had no clue long term abuses like this were not going on. The second it hit national news they had no choice to cut ties.

People often don't report their bosses because well... they're afraid of losing their jobs. It doesn't mean they're necessarily racists themselves. It means they understood what it meant and preferred having food on their tables while largely ignoring a racist boss. I could understand if this was some sort of association of university students but this was people probably ignoring the rantings of their racist boss because well... they weren't there to be social justice warriors. They were there to work ****ty hours for an even ****tier pay.

I do not find 'unintended consequences' to apply to the preventable loss of jobs. I concede that if the company couldn't take over the business, then it could shut it down so as not to have further incidents - however that same social responsibility argument also means that a company is responsible for the people it has hired and had nothing to do with the indiscretions of a single individual.

Again, didn't read. Paragraphs please, when you comply - you will be responded to. Look at all of the other posters, we're having pleasant extended conversations on the issue. We have differing views, but we can read each other's posts fully and respond in kind.

You should join us.
 
Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

As you wish:



You do understand that the move was to shut down the franchise and as a result people lost their jobs.

Right?

I don't think AJ was cheering someone losing their job; but he was agreeing with DQ corporate taking Crichton's franchise. The store will be closed until someone else takes the franchise.
 
Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

Sure, and corporate should have taken over the location and kept it operating instead of shutting it down. Now, we have people out of a job, but hey - you made one racist jobless.

Those people are out of a job (if they are) because of the idiot they worked for, He was a complete screw-up and it's too bad he took others down with him but it's all on him. It's nobody's fault but his.

LMAO and another dodge. Owning your retarded strawmen is easy.
When you can answer my question please let us know, thanks!!

Do you have a link showing this (keeping it open) was factually possible at this location?
Do we know DQ owned the property etc and not Jim?
Do we know the other workers are not being compensated, transferred or assisted in work by DQ?
Can you show a qoute of anybody celebrating others losing their jobs?

Who wants to be these questions are dodged and ran from again.

Of course he was. He's happy this happened even if it means people losing their jobs. As another poster put it, they're 'unintended consequences'. Bull****, of course it could have been avoided. Corporate could have figured out where to place these people before telling everyone they're out of a job. They didn't.

Those people are out of a job (if they are) because of the idiot they worked for, He was a complete screw-up and it's too bad he took others down with him but it's all on him. It's nobody's fault but his.

No, those people are out of a job because corporate shut down the franchise instead of securing a job for them first. Again, if this had happened during the Donald Sterling thing and everyone who worked for him had been fired, there would be an outrage.

Apparently, not now.

Sure was

and just to comment on your last part, the reality is it "might" be closed forever at that location. We don't know. Nobody does yet. There so manu factors that go into it and we dont know any of them.

Jim might own that property and not DQ. Then there is no solution for that location. Guessing all the employees are fired is just a solid as a guess that they are all already being transferred :shrug:

Nobody knows, it certainly and factually was not part of my OP or ANYBODY's original comments here before H's. :)

And you're back to 10 lines to say what could have been typed out in one. Again, you're welcomed to type full paragraphs if you really want to get me to acknowledge you.

Simply calling things retarded is not going to do.

Just a quick question, with how you feel about these people losing their jobs. What kind of car do you own? I ask because the actions of Ford, Chevy, and Dodge far and away make Dairy Queen's actions look even more like a non issue. Also, Nissan is the only car manufacturer in the US that I'm aware of that hasn't layed off any American workers, even when they were going through bankruptcy :p
 
Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

Keep thinking you found the magic solution.

It is not a corporation's job to find solutions for social issues. It is to make a profit. I thought you understood all that...you know, you being "very conservative" and all.

I don't believe these companies are socially responsible either.
 
Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

I agree and maybe Meryl Streep and others should be fired or reprimanded for calling trump and those who voted for him racists. You know what, that word is as offensive to me as I'm sure the n word is to others. But hell, what do I know because I'm white and have no rights or feelings!

Meryl Streep called Trump voters racist?

Then buy Nissan :p

It's almost like you believe that somebody dismissing your posting style means you've won the argument. Excon thinks the same way. I stopped taking that sort of attitude seriously a long time ago.

iLOL!
 
Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

And you know what else, grow up and stop acting so entitled that you feel entitled to squirt ketchup all over someone's property. You know the property that someone working has to clean up!

The people involved in the OP story were not the people squirting ketchup. Read, then comment.
 
Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

It is not a corporation's job to find solutions for social issues. It is to make a profit. I thought you understood all that...you know, you being "very conservative" and all.

This was, from the start, a social issue. The company's solution was to shut down the franchise... and maybe... mayybeeeee... help these people find a job.
 
Re: Dairy Queen owner unleashed a racist tirade on customer, He no longer has a Busin

Then buy Nissan :p

To be honest, I'm not in a condition to drive as a result of a car accident in a company lent vehicle in Northern Canada. I'm kind of done with the whole driving thing for a few months.

WOW!!! what is wrong with people? This nutball had a complete meltdown over his employees making a mistake so it caused him to lose his businesses. What a completely dummy and moron. Nutters and their meltdowns crack me up. Sad and funny at the same time. Good move DQ sweeping in and taking his franchise from him he is clearly unstable and incompetent. What ever ills he has I hope he gets them fixed, he needs serious help.

Welcome to the New America.:2wave:

Reprehensible and inexcusable but I wonder how many lefties still think that FOX News reports nothing but lies.
