I agree that the dad acted badly. But I do not think he should have lost his job. I DO think the kids should lose their jobs. Why the difference? The dad's bad behavior wasn't related to his job at all. If people want to chose another fin adviser they can, but the rate of return his customers get from their investments is not affected by what he did. Nobody can sue Merrill Lynch based on what the dad did. ML is firing him due to the bad publicity.
The kids' mistakes were related to their jobs. There is no question that there was a 911 call from the dad's home about 45 minutes after he bought the smoothie. If the son died, the smoothie store would be facing a wrongful death action. As it is, the son probably has a case for negligence against it.
The fact that the kids' attitude was so cavalier indicates that they had not received sufficient training from their employer about food allergies. That is negligence.
Yes. All the time.
Absolutely. I don't like the taste of something, I just ask for it to be removed or subbed. Including types of nuts.
That smoothie shop btw has 3 smoothies with peanut butter. All of which use it as the base.
Judging by the fact that he ordered it for a 17-year-old teen boy, who love to 'bulk', I'm guessing it was the 800 LB Gorilla. The second ingredient (which means the second most plentiful) is peanut butter. Kid had a death wish.
Lots of stupid to go around, he didn't communicate to the stupid workers what happened so how are they supposed to learn

25 year successful career with ML, spotless record.....what a complete dumbass, moron.
He’s a bozo who must be lying about being 48
I dunno - he looks like a typical worn out 48 year old to me.
Doesn't look a day younger than 56.
no skin in this game ..... but his mug shot has a birth date of 1973.

If his son truly had that extreme of a reaction went unconscious and was taken via ambulance to ER he should have been at the hospital with his son. Not back at the store "a short time later" according to police.

Everyone has a video camera in their hand. Behave accordingly. It's 2022. Who is not aware of this fact?!
Also, the fact that anyone would defend this behavior means many of you are tolerating some awful behavior in your own lives. If my DH, brother, or any other man I knew did this, I would be horrified. This is way outside of my normal.

the morons remotely giving this guy the benefit of the doubt are the reason our society is in shambles.
Now I get him being scared about his son but that does not equate to cussing out teenagers, calling them names, disparaging them because they are not white. The reason this is an issue is because he acted like a child and clearly has serious issues. If they purposely put peanut butter in his smoothie, knowing the recipient had a peanut allergy, that's one thing...BUT THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. it was an honest mistake and fully on the parent for not checking the smoothie (as every parent of a child with a peanut allergy has mentioned). Guy is a scumbag and does not deserve to go back to his cushy life in Fairfield. He needs to learn from his mistakes or he will always be a deep seeded a-hole.
As a fellow financial advisor, someone like him should never be in a position to handle hundreds of millions of dollars. He should go work for the Trump Organization, great cultural fit!

He did not act like the Karen from the park who called cops on the bird watcher guy because he was black. This guy became unhinged for a valid reason. And even after throwing the drink he says he will leave if they give the number and they refuse. He is not obnoxious after that towards the end of the video.
He has a phone with access to the internet. Google “Robeks” +”corporate phone number.” Done,
He didn’t need them to give him a phone number. He was trying to intimidate them and it gloriously and deservedly backfired.

No. He ruined his own life with his behavior. If he hadn’t thrown a racist adult temper tantrum in public, there would have been nothing to post.
Next!
Totally. The only thing I agree with is the bolded and its not because of the way PP depicted it. The guy should have collected his receipt and calmly called his lawyer on retainer to sue the establishment. End of story. Now he's out a $2 million a year job and defending himself in criminal court and possibly civil court. He may still sue the smoothie shop but the damage is already done.
