this one didnt happen to me personally, but i was right next to my friend when it happened.
this woman came up to check out some of her stuff, and notices my friend's name tag says "Flores." She asked him "Flores, thats a nice name, what nationality is that?" he responded, "oh, well thats my last name, its actually Puerto Rican, thank you." She says back "Puerto Rican? wow, i wasnt aware petco hired you people." i almost had to jump in front and hold him back, but i think she was lucky that hes a good guy and has a lot of self control, because after she left, i cant even begin to describe the words that were coming out of his mouth about her, some of them i wasnt even sure what they meant.
anyway...i cant believe that people, even in todays society, can be so racist like that woman was. by the way, she is a regular now and comes in the store about every 2 weeks, and of course, my friend is always working when she comes in.
