Fuck, Some People

Yesterday, I came across an incident that almost drove me out of my
mind. A new co worker was hired for my department. I know everyone
should have the chance to earn a living, but not everyone can work in
the field that I work in.

This guy says he had 3 store, delis in Manhattan. He said that he won
awards from the James Beard Foundation, that I wouldn't doubt, you'll
never know. But when you come onto a crew like the one I work with,
there are certain rules that apply, you start at the bottom and you work
your way up. In my field, I always worked my way up, and continue to do
so. I don't want the managers position cause it doesn't allow me to
mingle with my customers, its all about paperwork, and the bottom line.

So this guy, who closed the deli the night before, left it for this
morning looking like shit. I called the deli manager, he was off, and he
told me to let him knows when he comes in at 10am. I waited until he was
settled in, and explained to him about certain things he left in not
such a professional state. This man told me in more words or left, to
shut up. I told him that there are no chickens, do the chickens, I will
handle the counter. He just stood there. I asked him again, he he said
that he wants to wait on customers, no do the chickens. He just stood
there. Called the store manager over, he told him to do it, and he just
stood there. All of this going on while I'm waiting on customers. I said
ok, wait on customers, he just stood there. Ia sked him to do the
chickens please, and he said that all I had to say was please.

Oh no the fuck he didn't !!! I approached him, told him, that what he
was saying in more words or less, that ne was calling me a nigger. He
said no he wasn't, but he was. I was waiting ona customer making a
sandwich, and I called the store manager over again, he called the
owner. This guy took out his cell phone and called the police saying
that I was threatening him with a knife. The store manager tried to stop
him from calling. The owner came in and said that if the police come in,
he will no longer work here. They both left the deli.

The owner came back, told me he no longer works here, he paid him for
the day. He also said that this guy doesn't take orders from black
people, he doesn't like black people. He's from Egypt, about the same
complextion as I am, but he doesn't considers himself being black. The
deli manager is black, and when he is no ther, I'm in charge. I dislike
telling people what to do, you're experience, you should know what to
do. But what I don't get, if the owners knew this, and the deli
supervisior knew this, why did you hire this guy. A waste of time was
what he was.
