I assume it's a bunch of hot-tempered men who are infuriated that they may no longer be allowed to scream at minimum wage employees without consequence.

I can agree he was wrong while also:
1. Thinking that being wrong in this way should not merit you losing your job.
and
2. Thinking that the blue hoody girl is not someone I would want to employ since she cannot keep her cool while an employee. I definitely think the "so what" kind of attitude of the kids contributed to the escalation rather than if they had apologized profusely, called the manager, etc. And Yes i have a daughter, yes i worked in restaurants, and behaving professionally even when a minimum wage employee and teen is important.

I'm curious too. I hope these teens were also fired for putting peanut butter in the smoothie. They deserve to be fired for negligence too.

You don't fire an employee for making something incorrectly. The customer asks for it to be remade or not charged for the item when the customer notices the the mistake.

Pretty common issue and why many with severe allergies don't eat out.

First off, those who are saying his relatives in CT are posting here, his relatives are probably advised to not make any statements due to him retaining an attorney for his felony charge which could land him 5 years jail time. He didn't throw the smoothie for a mistake. He brought it in to ask who made, asked to speak to manager, asked for corporate's number, asked to use the phone and the employee's kept dismissing him and yelling and cursing at him. The repeated refusal to provide info on the making and manager of the smoothie is what set him off. Yes, it was the 16-year-old's second day on the job and she wasn't used to making them. They would be in their right to fire her for reduction in sales and reputation and customer service as she was representing the company on company hours in company logo. However, many more people have come to the store, not to buy anything, but to give their opinions. It certainly is giving them lots of free press. They say no press is bad press...

I, myself, loved Robeks and they were in general more competent in NOVa than Tropical Smoothie, but in FL Tropical Smoothie is awesome. I will no longer be shopping at Robeks, not because of a mistake which Tropical Smoothie and Kohr's Custard have definitely also made locally, but because of their statement. When I got severe food poisoning from Outback Steakhouse, I didn't yell at anyone but rather reported it to poison control. Even though I was literally reading my receipt and the Queen's filet was on their website and I was trying to email them a photo, the poison control told me Outback said they don't sell a Queen's filet so they dropped the whole thing unreported and that was the end of story. They got away with it scot-free just by lying. At least if this guy ends up in jail, the denizens of Fairfield will know about the poisoning.

I’m more inclined to shop at a place like Robek’s that doesn’t tolerate their employees being mistreated by entitled rich a-holes.

+1 and he's a total idiot because everything gets backed up now to dropbox or google photos.

LOL, so you think *she* should have lost her job and *he* should have kept his job??!?!? Hahahahaha, you're wrong on both counts. He had the option of coming in and acting like an adult and he decided to be a screaming violent bully instead. End of story.

How does he keep that job? If his company keeps on a out of control liability like that jack's** they will lose business from people that say no thanks. Terrible PR for ML and a boon to the competition.

I predict the dawn of a lucrative new career for this guy, as a whining victim on MAGA media.

So you raised your kid to let someone rage at her when she didn't actually make a mistake? They made the smoothie as per the request: no peanut butter. Nobody ever mentioned an allergy to them.

Those kids made a mistake, otherwise his kid would not be in the hospital.

The girl said in the interview that she was not sure if someone added peanut butter. Kids are liars and I bet they made a mistake and were covering themselves. He asked for no peanut butter, but he did get peanut butter in it if his son landed up in the hospital after 2 epi-pen shots.

And no, I am not related to him.

you need a psychiatrist if you think it's the kids fault. I hope you don't have children

You must be men. It is not her job to manage his emotions. He was out of control from the minute he got there.
