Whataburger worker fired for refusing to serve police officers
A worker at a Texas fast-food restaurant was fired after she refused to serve two police officers, the company said Saturday.
In a lengthy post on the Denison Police Department's Facebook page, Chief Jay Burch alleged the officers were cursed at by the employee and that the restaurant manager's only response was "I don't get into politics."
"If a business does not want police officers as customers, just let us know," Burch wrote. "There's no need to curse us and make a scene, just let us know you don't want us there and we'll go somewhere else."
He added, "Now going somewhere else in Denison in the middle of the night is not easy because our officers don't have many options. What really gets my goat with such an incident is that while most of us are sleeping - sleeping!, the officers are out there working hard to keep us safe and when trying to take a break to eat - they face this type of reception from an employee of a local business and management calls it 'politics'?"
