have they never seen a biracial person on tv? like? poor kid, when I was 16 i got black box braids and I felt great until my boss started calling me the predator and tried to make all of my coworkers call me the predator instead of my name.

they don't watch that woke crap 
this is why i kept a picture of melanasains my phone as a teen
lying to white people was one of my fav things for a bit.
"How many times do I need to tell you? Don't even DREAM of telling white people the truth! Shit. Making white people riot. I'm going to go find a white man and lie to him right now."
What the fuck 
oh yeah he sucked. he was the head manager and his dad was the owner. I think he was attracted to me because all my male coworkers kept saying he was, but he was so mean all the time to me in particular so idk. don't worry I no one besides him called me that, but it was super damaging to my young self esteem. I felt better by calling him a virgin and all my coworkers went "ooooooohhh" fun times (problematic to make fun of someone for being a virgin in retrospect I know). would you believe i left that workplace because he wouldn't do anything when a coworker was sexually harassing me?
Yeah at ex model c all girls high schools in South Africa there were major issues around black girls hair. Even led to full on protests because of how racist these schools were. I remember meeting someone at university detail how they were forced to put chemicals in their hair to straighten it while at one of these schools. But I think the protests led to a change in hair and uniform policy, so at least something happened.
so nice that the girls changed things. sadly hair is extremely politicized everywhere. and just 15 year ago relaxed hair (chemically straighten) was the norm. but than the natural hair movement happened and now its a huge generational divide. I will always be against relaxers because they double your risk of certain types of cancer. My first major act of teen rebellion was cutting off my relaxed hair with kitchen scissors when i was 15. I used to have constant oozing sores on my head from the relaxer. my mother was so pissed she called every family member to tell them i looked homeless. I told her I "was no longer conforming to the eurocentric patriarchy beauty standards" and she said "I dont know what that means, you look ridiculous". I have a 10000 hair stories, people coming up to me and petting me without saying a word, a BLACK boss making me cover my natural hair because i was trying to start locs, so much so that some of my Muslim customers assumed I was Muslim but I never denied it because that was too awkward, like 5 diffrent white toddlers have pointed to my hair and asked "whats that" back in my babysitting for rich people days.
I'm so sorry that you had to experience all that. Hopefully you're in a better situation now
i mean in in America so ya know... but yeah I love my natural hair, it took many years to learn how to take care of especially when I had no money and no coping mechanisms for burnout. but its now down to my collar bone! and best of all I have a partner how has learned to do my hair so im always looking cute! and i now wear lots of mens styles which are way cheaper to get done professionally. life is good. also natural hair is weirdly common with black professors ive had. so thats nice whenever go to grad school. Ive heard south africa is having its own natural hair movement. I wish I lived somewhere like cuba where the government was invested in promoting black natural hair.
It's a suburb of the largest city in North Carolina. This manager has 100% seen a biracial person in person, they're just racist.
Charlotte, and it's surrounding area, have rich white car dealership and restaurant franchise owner vibes. Totally rancid lol.
That is the most normal hairstyle I've ever seen. In South Africa I see much more elaborate hair styles literally every day, and it's super cool.
Racist ass chick fil a bosses
Their issue wasn't the hairstyle but blonde hair on someone with dark skin. Apparently it's "unnatural". Growing up mixed race black in the US, you run into this with a certain type of person. Evidence of misagination really bothers them.
Yeah that also happens in South Africa, especially towards the coloured community here.(Not a racial slur in South Africa, it's it's own culture/ethnicity and many people self identify with the term). Some really vile stuff gets said towards them.
You dont even need to be mixed to have blonde hair they had no excuse
In the article, it says they invited her to return to work after they realized the rule had been misinterpreted. The absolute gall. Of course she doesn't want to work with those fuckers! They've made it very clear how they see her, but now in their generosity they're going to offer her job back. I'm glad she's exploring her legal options instead.
"Invited".
Incredible, isn't it?
Their lawyers got their ass but not enough to do literally anything to the chud manager I guess
Except in very particular situations (Actors… that’s pretty much it) I don’t think employers should be allowed to have literally any opinion on your appearance past like, “don’t literally be covered in dirt.”
To be honest, interviews should be blind with fake names and voice modulators. On top of the obvious sex and race reasons that you shouldn’t be allowed to discriminate, I don’t think employers should be allowed to ban things like piercings, tattoos, dyed hair, weird hairstyles, etc.
Obviously you shouldn’t be allowed to fire a black girl for having light hair, but I don’t think you should be allowed to fire someone for having a green Mohawk and a septum ring either. Fuck off, it’s none of your business.
I appreciate my line of work because I can wear fishnets and makeup and short shorts while in the office, while in the same building with poor souls forced to wear button ups and shoes which give their footsies wounds.
Same here, as a scientist no one gives a fuck what you wear day to day as long as you have closed toes shoes and tie your hair back
Fuck this company and their terrible bland food too. We've had some pop up where I live in the past few years and the place legit causes traffic jams because of all the 
suburbanite slobs in their tank sized SUV's lining up for their slop. Then every other week we learn about how yet another manager there is a bigot. I remember when libs were running defense for the company when the ghoul who owns it was revealed to be a homophobe. Their refrain was always "oh his views aren't policy or the views of the people who work there". What kind of people do you think he hired? And what kind of people do you think he encouraged his underlings to hire? You think there might be a connection between who he is and the fact that you can't make it through the drive through there without another news article like this dropping?
What kind of people do you think he hired? And what kind of people do you think he encouraged his underlings to hire
and the whole 'closed on sunday' means even normal scumbag capitalists avoid the business, only christfreaks, and the specific kind who want to murder lgbt people are going to be franchisers of a joint like that
also they play christian pop music in their stores. any heathens will be driven to madness.
Christian music and (I don't know what to call it except "bro country") in a death spiral to see who can make the most unimaginative bullshit possible.
i've seen it said here that their franchisee interview process is wildly invasive and thorough to ensure that only the most unhinged christofascists are allowed to use their money printer
Double lane drive through staffed by teens walking up to your suburban assault vehicle
they make those kids stand outside in the florida heat with zero sun protection
it should be an executable offense to expose workers to that level of potential harm (sun, heat, vehicle exhaust, risk of getting run over), let alone children
Shit is pathetic and with inflation prices they all just look like addicts now. Like Chik Fil A drive thru in 2023 is a methadone clinic for food issues.
America delenda est
if your not white how come your hair color is not black
Small business tyrants 
Fucking so sick of the unending hatred of old white men in this country. It's in my face every single fucking day of my life and I'm so over it. This girl is incredibly beautiful and it's so obvious it was about her race. FUCK
we dont need to comment on the beauty of a 16 year old on an article about workplace discrimination. its just not neccesarry. it would still be discrimination is she wasn't beautiful or her hairstyle wasnt considered conventionally attractive. not implying your creepy just that we dont need to value women for their looks.
