I wonder if the owners ask themselves the question; "Was it really worth it in the end?"

Point "A":  You are entitled to your own opinions, but you are also entitled to keep them to yourself and keep your mouth shut.

 

Point "B": Humans are more than their procreational anatomy in what they contribute to society so life is NOT all about those parts of the body.

 

Point "C":  The adult entertainment industry and the other industry that has designated Trans as being child abusers need not be supported or taken as authority over life.

The question in my mind is why did the owners hire this person if they didn't like him? Or if they didn't know at the beginning, why did they not find an excuse to terminate his employment? It doesn't make much sense to me to keep somebody employed in a small business setting if they don't fit in. Strange! 

 

Also strange is why somebody would choose to keep a job where they are so obviously being harassed. It's not like jobs in food service are good-paying or particularly desirable. At least, outside of the really fanciest establishments. Or is the economy in New York that bad? Around here, people simply go down the road and find a better job rather than be subjected to working conditions like that.
