none of that, i find the whole "ginger" statement offencive, how would it be different that saying "i was at gamestop and some little black kids came in with there parents..."
lol
racially sensitive people. It isn't different from saying they came in with black kids. It's just a way of describing who came in to give you a better visual image.
the hair was irellevent, and even then red-heads would have sufficed, its all discrimination :|
One more comment to add. Customers had sex in the store ALL the time. Loss prevention caught them EVERY time too. In the laptop aisle with 3 associates nearby (weren't aware of it) and in the fancy home theater room in the fancy leather chairs. Probably in CDs too.
Don't assume people aren't watching the security cameras, because there's a good chance they are.

What has the human race come too.....
Me and two of my friends were in a conveince store, and {name} didn't believe that{name 2} could steal anything, so {name 2} goes off and steals two boxes of pancake mix, he puts them up his shirt.. he also wanted to buy a chocolate bar, so he goes to the cash register, leans on it, and the boxes of pancake mix bust right open infront of the manager.
He the choice of paying a fine or working in the store 3 months for free.
[QUOTE="elblanquito_81"]Having worked as a manager in retail I have quite a few stories. But one that I always remember is when this woman came up to the register I was at with her items. She looked at me and then at my name tag and smiled at me. She said, "You look pretty young, you old enough to be a manager?" I laughed a little and told her I just look young for my age. She asked my age and I told her and she said, "wow, I would've never guessed. But it doesn't matter, you're still cute though." I smiled and felt myself blush a little when she asked me if I could give her a discount. Having figured out what all that nice talk was for I told her that discounts are only for employees. She pouted and proceeded to ask me over and over, pleading to give her a discount. I didn't know what the big deal was, it was only 10% so she wasn't saving much. I told her that and she just insisted because she didn't want to pay the full amount if I had the power to give her a discount.
She was really starting to get annoying and wouldn't stop. I kept answering nicely, "No, no, I can't do that. I could get fired..." on and on. This went on for a few minutes and I tried to make an excuse to leave her there when the cashier came back from her break. I just broke away when she came back only to have psycho chick try and follow me still asking for a discount. I was like what the hell is wrong with this woman? I just about had enough and told her, "Maam, I'm not allowed to do that." as angrily as I could. She looked at me, put her hand on my arm, leaned in close and said, "What if I s*** your ****?" I nearly choked on my gum. To make a long story short (and to keep out any details that might get me suspended), I gave in at that point and she got her discount.

I don't think it was discriminatino just because I described the person. People like you are why racism and discrimination can't be forgoten. You like to pull the race card every second.
Well I was really young and I wanted to buy this toy from a drug store. My mom was in line, but I went to the wrong line and tugged on another woman who sorta looked like my mom. I was like "Mom can i get this?" Then I realized it wasn't my real mom and ran away. I was so embarrased that I put the toy away :(
I was at dunkin donuts a few years ago and this lady was ordering donuts. They had no chocolate sprinkles, so the worker offered her vanilla sprinkles. The lady screams at her to get her chocolate sprinkles, but they didn't have any. Like stop yelling at the worker, not her fault they didn't have any chocolate sprinkles.

the fact that you don't think it is ain't worth crap, i would provide another example but i could get banned, my point was there are other less insulting ways of desribing a person. i could normaly give less of a rats ass about a persons skin colour, its all about how they act with me...never assume.
in short whether you think its discrimination or not is worthless.
