Taco Bell Employee Fired For Refusing To Serve Police A Phenix City, Alabama Taco Bell employee has been fired after refusing to serve police officers according to WTVM. One of the officers’ wives, Tammy Bush Mayo (what an ironic last name) took to Facebook to post a lengthy rant about how her uniformed husband: My husband is a Deputy Sheriff in Lee County, Alabama and tonight a Deputy on his shift went into Taco Bell in Phenix City, AL and was told that they don’t serve cops. A lady waiting for her food spoke up to say that she was about to ask for a refund because she didn’t want to eat somewhere with a cop. This really disturbs me that people have started treating law enforcement professionals in this manner when these same law enforcement professionals put their lives on the line everyday to protect all people, including this woman with a very bad attitude at Taco Bell. We’re going to research this further but if this is what Taco Bell allows to happen, they have lost my business and I hope others of you will do the same. Sheriff Jay Jones said that the cashier told two of his officers that she would not serve them. When asked if she was kidding she replied: “No, I’m not serving you.” So sayeth the sheriff: I’m very disappointed that simply because they were uniformed law enforcement officers that our deputies were treated in such negative fashion. We pride ourselves in giving people basic respect and only ask the same in return. I am inclined to believe that this was the attitude of one employee and not the policy of the management. The fair thing is to give them an opportunity to respond. We won’t base our opinion of Taco Bell on one employee’s negative action any more than the general public should base their opinion of law enforcement on the negative action of one officer. Is that what black folks have to do to avoid being unfairly profiled? Work at Taco Bell?? Image via Shutterstock
