JUST KNOW HERE YOU ARE BEING SCRUTINIZED AND UNDER SURVEILLANCE!!! NOT WORK OR STUDY FRIENDLY!!!
So before I say anything I just want to say that the girls that were working there were amazing and the sweetest. My complaint is with the manager, I believe his name is Hezekiah. I stopped by the subway to wait for my family to pick me up. They are counselors who had to deal with a very important matter so I decided to sit down and wait a few hours as they were dealing with a situation. I've been to many restaurants, cafes, and places to sit and do homework and occupational work for hours at a time so to me there didn't seem like there was anything wrong with sitting around and waiting, especially if I bought food to eat. I was able to get some work done and enjoyed some conversation with the workers, when one of the employees handed me their phone and said it was their boss. LIKE WHAT IN THE WORLD?!?! This is literally the first time this has ever happened to me anywhere. In what reality is it okay for a manager to call a patron and ask why they are there? What an invasion of privacy because if I'm keeping to my self and eating the food it's honestly no one's business. On the phone he asked why I was there and insinuated that there was something wrong with me for being there. He then essentially asked if he could "get me a ride" essentially telling me to leave. I've never felt so offended and violated before. I'm not sure if it is a racial issue or what other explanation there is for that. I was there no where near closing time as well. read more
