Ut videam, you missed the point altogether - scrutinize the perpetrators' ACTIONS (or lack of action on the owner's part), not the victim's insistence for reprimand! The actions of this manager were totally inappropriate and unprofessional at a minimum! Did the owner insist the manager provide a sincere written letter of apology to this patron or insist on some management training/sensitivity classes to update his people skills? NO, he tried to skirt the issue and exhibited an unacceptable approach to this inappropriate conduct - basically letting this jerk off of the hook therefore exposing himself and his establishment to additional scrutiny and liability - I'm not an attorney however I believe legal action could be taken on some points. Ten years of experience would preclude a professional MANAGER from such conduct. If Backyard was a franchise, the asshole manager would have been severely reprimanded up to dismissal for physical and verbal assault/abuse on patrons, not to mention the fact he tried to push his way into the ladies room - NO RESPECT - an isolated incident?, BULLSHIT!! That type of treatment of women and lack of respect is not spontaneous, rather an indication the manager has NO RESPECT FOR FEMALE PATRONS OR FEMALES PERIOD to refer to random women as bitches because they expect clean functioning facilities...his disrespect could very well be deep seeded and I doubt very seriously this is "isolated". Gutter trash?, shithole?, why would you defend the owner or question XX's demand for swift personnel action? You contradict yourself....think about it...does the owner of a gutter trash shithole not have the same responsibilities to and for the safety and well being of patrons as would the owner of, say, Clydes or Mortons or another classier joint? Please..!!
tillylove, pray tell, do you know if Lahcen is related to the owner, Robbie? That would make this more interesting, in that nepotism allowed an irrational man exhibiting irrational behavior to continue under his employ. Robbie's lackadaisical attitude is an indication he does not care about or protect his female patrons...sad...those dudes ARE wack...!!
XX, good for you to expose this...I will refrain from patronizing this place and advise others to do so as well...!! You have every right to insist on justice in this matter!! Stick it to Robbie, the owner, he deserves it if he would allow this.
