This last time, I ordered the chicken over rice salad, but they forgot the rice. Without the rice, the meal just felt incomplete. I had high hopes for it.

It felt as though not only did she dislike me, but she also detested her job. This interaction definitely left a bad impression on me. Trust me, I could see that she was far from delighted to be at work today. It’s unfortunate because prior to this, I had always had pleasant experiences with all the cashiers. One negative encounter shouldn't define a place, but I hope they address this issue, as the service industry deserves people who bring a positive attitude.

I used to visit frequently when I lived on the East side and had a great appreciation for one of the women who worked there. However, the men on staff consistently treated me disrespectfully and would give me uncomfortable looks. I feel compelled to warn people of color, particularly women or those who present as female, to avoid this place if they want to feel safe.
