I know right, gotta love blacks who's family has never seen the south muchless ever been there... "but the slavery" lord no idea it was whites who actually allowed slavery for the shortest amount of time ever... black? not only invented slavery but were kidnapping other blacks for over 5000 years until they brought it to the USA, and in less than 100 years whites ABOLISHED IT via a WAR! where over 200,000 WHITES, and around 10,000 blacks gave their life to the cause . . BOOM! slavery abolished in less than 4 years which would lead to the toppling of slavery WORLD WIDE!... but oh no that feels racist now my slavery hurts .. hmbooooo, whaaaa, I want my moms!
@meleebrawler6462 being part black but mostly indigenous i definitely couldn't agree more about your statement everyone wants too be a victim and too be honest if I saw monkey instead of his name I have a dark sense of humor I Definitely would have started given her some flack but in the end I would have laughed and said no worries if I know that it's a mispronunciation not too make her feel bad but I definitely would have said I'm kidding and told her that I know it was a mistake
Chic-Fil-A employee here… Do you know how many people come through the drive thru and ask you to put down the most strange names? We just roll with it. There’s so much going on, you don’t even question it.
@@teatime9649I had a cop who called himself Batman when he’d come through. He was so cool though so I did it for him. But other people would sometimes give such weird or inappropriate names and I’m like I can’t put that down.
As a 17 year old who is currently working at Chick Fil A, I cannot tell you how difficult it is to hear someone. Between revving engines on the highway, kids crying in the back of the customer’s car and my manager or coworker talking to me in my headset, it’s extremely difficult to hear what the customer is saying. In my head, I’m just thinking about “what was the last thing they ordered?” “when am I getting off work cause I have an assignment due tonight.” and “dang my feet hurt cause I’ve been standing here for 5 hours already.” I love my job but some customers just need to be more empathetic.
Yep. I don't even bother complaining if my order is wrong in most cases, because I know what the job is like. We're so angry at every perceived slight these days. Missing fries? Cool, just ask and be happy!
@@SrirachaSpok it’s really not a big deal. If there’s something on there I don’t want, I’ll take it off. Unless they give me diet soda when I asked for something else. Then I’ll politely approach, “Hi, this tastes like diet soda. Can I please get…thank you.” Easy.
Former CFA employee here. There’s also the fans that we have outside. In Texas we NEED these on. And it’s so flipped hard to hear customers with the fans on
When I go out to eat with my son, I always give them a fake name. Prime, Sonic, Lightning McQueen, Optimus, etc. He always gets excited when they call out our name ❤
I worked at a 7-11 and we did doordash orders and I'd see weird fake names ALL THE TIME. Dude was just looking for something to be offended about... Just like everyone else these days 🙄
My dad told the cashier today she was doing an excellent job. She proceeded to tell him of a lady that asked for the manager and tried to have her fired because she put the tomatoes on top of the onions while bagging. I cashiered and I was told the vegetables go with the other vegetables. I have never heard of tomatoes and onions having to be separated before. And most cashiers if you tell them how you want things bagged are quiet accommodating with the request. Some people don't just want to watch the world burn. They want to actively set it on fire and then complain its too hot and smoky.
You should always reply, "Sorry sir/maam, I just work at this here counter to pass some time, get out of the house, and talk to a few people. Take it up with the manager of this dump. Next?"
@@Fickji A lady tried getting someone fired for helping put her food in bags? I think it's ridiculous how people make a big deal about food being in the same bag as something else. Who really cares? Drive your food home and put it in the refrigerator or wherever else it belongs. People cry over nothing.
Being completely serious, I heard him say "I told him Monkeese. That's not even close to Monkeese." and had to go back and listen again because I was like what the hell kind of name is Monkeese?🤣🤣🤣🙄
@@Photik I, along with the overwhelming majority of all people on Earth with an internet connection, heard “Maw-kees”, which can absolutely be mistaken over an intercom for “Monkeys”.
not to mention that location seems to be at least half black. when he talks to the cashier or manager, you see 2 white people and 3 black people. I highly suspect this might be the most racist location. They probably don't even pay those 3 black employees.
@@Soar_LeanI've never worked fast food but I can imagine. Especially on a Friday or Saturday night when the kids are out and start to get the munchies.
He can't pronounce his own name. It's pronounced "mar-kees" but he pronounced it "maw-kees." Add to that the fact that you're talking into an intercom, which is never a clear way to communicate.
I was a manager at a fast food chain for 7 years. People think they are funny sometimes and give joke names like this. The minimum wage worker doesn’t get paid enough to care and puts what they hear.
Can honestly say I've never been in a Chic-Fil-A or In-N-Out and received anything but the most courteous of customer service. And I've seen customers who definitely did not deserve the best and most courteous customer service, but got it just the same. The manager in this video deserves much praise for protecting her employee and being extremely professional and respectful to this customer.
As a 53 year old white male who lives about 30 miles from this restaurant , I would probably have thought to ask him to spell his name, if I wasn't super busy. But I would not expect my 17 year old son working what is probably his first job ever, to think to do so. My name is Joe and I can't count the number of times I've either been called John or had it come out on a receipt as John. Nobody really cares what your name is dude! Get over yourself!
The sad thing nowadays is the manager can't possibly know if the guy is just some overly sensitive weirdo, a douchebag who just wants a confrontation to film for his social media, or a legitimately dangerous nutter who's going to try to attack a kid over an honest mistake.
Dude. I had a guy at the Chick-fil-A drive thru ask if he could pray for me because I told him I got a new job. THAT was the most Chick-fil-A thing ever, and I go out of my way to go to that location now.
Wendy’s put my husband’s name in as “Whale” 😂😂 his name starts with a W, but that’s about it as far as being similar. We didn’t try to cancel the store over the “body shaming” insult lol
My english teacher's name is Brett and she told us about a few times when she got starbucks and the they would write "Brat" lol, she never got mad and just laughed it off
@@variaxi935QUIT. You shouldn't judge others for voting and giving birth. YOU REALLY NEED TO THINK OF WHAT YOU SAID. And what if that was said to you in your FACE!
@@SelectiveApathy82 we all know that a person like this is already going to the Chick Fil A thats as close as humanly possible to him. He's gotta get them sausage fingers on them waffle fries before they get cold 😢
I think he wants a payout or clout. If the kid had asked him to spell his name, he might be recording a video claiming that the kid demonstrated incredulity at a non anglo name. And he didn't sound like he was upset. He invoked the trauma of slavery in his letter. It seems calculating.
As a former Chick-fil-A employee, the employee was definitely on autopilot. When the drive through is completely backed out you want to take orders as fast and accurate as possible, I misspelled so many names because I was on autopilot. The reason why the manager took the sticker off the bag was to check his claim and they gave him a refund to deescalate the situationg and remedy this mistake. I feel bad for the kid, like how miserable of a guy do you have to be to try and ruin a kids life through what is an obvious mistake.
They couldn't locate my order once & had the manager come look after the 2nd time they asked for my name at the C-f-A window. Manager (white lady) looked flummoxed for a few beats, then burst out laughing while simultaneously trying to apologize profusely for the misunderstanding and wait. The car hop (a sweet but tired black teen girl) had typed my name as "Lausey." Racism? Nope. Hard-working & tired teen who isn't an expert in 5,000-year-old names of Roman origin. Lots of black people don't know how to spell Lucy. A fair amount of white folk don't, either. Hispanics never miss. It's not racism, it's just culture. Older white people are named Lucy, and it's only made a rebound with babies in the last few years. Very few black people have the name. No big deal. I laughed along & got my order (with plenty of extra C-f-A sauce, I might add). Nothing worth crying over. Could've made a big deal & insinuated that the car hop was calling me "lousy," but even if she were, it didn't land. In the end, even if she were trying to insult me, if was really only good for a laugh.
Chick fil a employee here. I once handed out the food for a middle eastern couple who gave the name as "Fukma' pronounced exactly how it looks. They spelled the name out for the order taker and everything. There was another girl who came through every now and then named Sparkles. I worked with a Loveangel. It's hard to question mishearing a name when people give you crazy stuff all the time. Crazy names aside, people do not seem to realize how ridiculously difficult it usually is to hear someone talking through a car while you're on the outside, especially if they are a quiet talker, have a deeper voice, or are talking from the passenger seat. It's just the way your voice projects. Outside, it easily projects in, but from inside, it's like the noise just bounces inside the car. Also, the way he enunciated his name and the word monkeys, they literally sound almost the exact same 😂
I worked with a woman who went by Bug. Some asked her if that was her real name and she leveled him with a glare and said YES. So dollars to doughnuts some out there is running around named monkey.
It could be both too. The guy nearly mumbles when he speaks. Also, the worker could've thought he was joking. But instead of questioning the customer he just went along with it and served him what he ordered. Marquise does sound like Monkeys - especially when it's said by someone who basically mumbles like this guy in the video.
Especially through those drive thru head phones, I worked in a drive thru as a teen and people's vehicles are loud and they mumble and then get mad when you can't hear them
My name is Kate, I have had orders with my name saying, K, Kay, and my personal favorite “Cake.” That was the day I realized I can’t pronounce my own name
It's people like this in the video that make it worse for "racial issues". These people always complain about "racism" but these are the same people keeping racism alive. It's horrible. They need to stop crying and making everything about race and eventually nobody will be bringing up racial issues.
My name is Suzette and they get my name wrong all the time 🙄. My favorite was when they called me Caesars .We make such a big deal out of EVERYTHING in 2024. Smh.
This story reminds of the time about 10 years ago when I was shopping. A polite young employee asked if she could help me find anything and I said "No, thank you". A little later she asked a black man the same thing and he immediately started yelling at her for being "racist" and that he was no thief and had way more money than her etc. I went over and told him that she had asked me the same question. He seemed genuinely embarrassed, mumbled something and left.
HAHAHAHAHA!!! Why did he call her racist for asking if he wants help? What's also crazy is, if she didn't ask him if he wants help he would say she's racist for not asking him if he wants help. So stupid lol.
It was a 👏 MISUNDERSTANDING 👏 Chik fil a handled this so well If I had a dollar for every time someone spelled my name wrong ide have hundreds of dollars
I would have likely spelled it "Andi," but too many of my coworkers would likely spell it "Andy." Too many of the Gen. Z crew members don't know how to spell common names. I've seen a crew member spell a male customer's name Erin, and a female customer's name Aaron. I've seen the reverse gender spelling way too many times and that isn't the worst. I've seen them spell some names so bad that I wasn't able to decypher them.
Where does all the trash go? I feel like I'd be such a mess with 30 stickers on my hand while scrambling though lunch rush drive thru orders. At least the way outs is set up lol
I never understood why fast food joints in the US ask for your name to begin with. Here they just call out what's in the order, if they don't simply remember you and signal you to come pick it up.
I worked at Chick-fil-A and had a man come through whose name was Blackman. He was an older black man who would get quite upset if you didn't get his name right on the first time. Had other names come through that if I spelled them like they said them I'd be accused of racism. Then they'd scan their app and it was spelled even more unbelievably than I thought...
Chic fil a gets my name wrong literally 9/10 visits. They got my car color wrong. They called my truck a van. They don’t care about your name enough to use it as an insult
My cousin will intentionally give a funny name, like "monkeys", when asked by restaurants. I don't know how these employees are to differentiate between a troll and a mistake.
Which is more likely: 1. A chick Fil A worker decided to throw away their job and be branded as a racist online because they just couldn’t resist calling one specific black customer a monkey or 2. Someone heard Marquis and thought he said ‘Monkeys’?
They were outside with a tablet handling orders because they were swamped, so my guess is that autocorrect kicked in and changed Marquis (which isn't common) into monkeys.
This is literally my hometown CHikFIla and the entire city blew up about this situation. It was wild to see. I did not expect this story to make it all the way to Brett Cooper
Food service employee here! You would not believe the weird names we're told, and we often do not have the time to ask everyone to spell out their name. Whatever sounds closest is whatever you get.
Seriously, this is the lamest "defense" of a white person trying to excuse their racist behavior. And I'm laughing my ass off at her simps... pathetic.
SOCIAL MEDIA has ruined this world. Along with the excess of lawyers just WAITING to jump on every single damned thing. Everyone thinks they have a "case" and wants to show the world how they got wronged thinking they are suddenly gonna be rich with followers and BS. Fed up. Beam me up...
@@philipthrasher5250 Yes, but the point here isn't that the guy was saying someone could mistake the name Peg for "Pig", but was saying that someone could use the name Pig instead of Peggy, which wouldn't happen (unless on purpose) because they don't have the same amount of syllables.
CFA employee here, same age as this kid- I've heard a ton of crazy names in the Drive-Thru. Monkeys is not by any means far off the realm of possibilities. Also, depending on when this man ordered, it could have been the middle of lunch rush with cars lined up through the entire drive-thru. I've worked through those and they're BRUTAL, speed is everything. On top of all that, I only have ever HEARD the name Marquis once because it's my friend's dad's name. There's a lot of reasons this guy could have misheard it and jumping to racism is ridiculous.
Quick question since you work there. Do people normally sign in under other peoples names or do people who take the order not end up on the receipts? Just find it kinda weird that the receipt says the team members name is Kayla.
@@Roland_Deschain677 Inside, usually we have a Team Leader (manager) signed in on the registers, then have Team Members take the orders- unless a Team Member is supposed to be on the register for their whole shift. Outside, however, the Team Member is supposed to sign in onto the iPad themselves. If they're on a headset taking outside orders through the speaker, usually they're on a register signed into under the Team Leader. That's just my location so it may be different for others.
@@Roland_Deschain677 I worked there for around a year, and I'm pretty sure it is because that is the person at the window who printed the receipt. You have to sign in with your employee id to handle the window job, so management knows who to ask if the money is slightly off.
@@HigumaHoney Kayla might well have been the person assigned to and signed in at that window for the shift and the 17 year old could have just stepped in to give her a hand when it got extra busy. If that was the case, I doubt that they would have gone through the steps of employee number 1 (Kayla) signing out and employee number 2 (the 17 year old) signing in, every time he stepped in for a couple of minutes to help.
As a teenage Chick-fil-A employee, let me list you some names I've been given Custom Verizon Bruiser(petite black lady who was clearly enjoying it, and I don't blame her) Mariah Carey Bob Ross Harold of York I promise you, Monkeys is not the most out-of-pocket name we hear at Chick-fil-A. Kid was probably just rolling with it
Also this guy has an entitlement problem, he thinks a 17 year old kid actually gives a crap about him and would willingly throw away his job over him 🤣
New honest headline - "52 year old man tries to bully a 17 year old child". In a shocking story this week we find a 52 year old man attempting to bully a child for getting his name wrong. The adult man believes himself to be the victim in this situation. Never in all his 52 years has anyone ever misheard, mispronounced, or misspelled his name - without extreme and violent racist intent. The 17 year old child is expected to face the courts immediately, and could receive a criminal sentence of 5 years imprisonment, as a result of his terrible racist crimes - misspelling a stranger's name.
I really wish people would stop doing this. As a black person myself, it's really embarrassing being in a word where I can't feel comfortable just being who I am just because some other black people act like they're the center of the universe.
1. They definitely misheard him. One time when I was taking orders, in the lunch rush in the middle of a southern summer, I had a costumer named “Hope” but I heard “Help” so I put help and nobody cared. 2. The people handing out the food absolutely could’ve just taken off the sticker and handed him his food. Sometimes when I’m handing out food the person taking the order jokingly puts "PoPo" for a cop who's in our drive-thru. before i hand them their food i always take off the sticker to avoid something like this 3. She wasn’t trying to remove the evidence when she took off the sticker, she was trying to give him a refund. To give a refund you need the transaction number (the four digits on the top right, which for him is 4583) thats why she took the receipt. I'm sure if he asked for it back after the fact she would've given it to him
He actually asked the black woman manager for a manager... Isn't that racist? Assuming she WASN'T the manager?! Then, after being offered a complete refund plus a new order of food, he goes inside to cause a scene!!! Also the employers name on his reciept says KAYLA. look close! He obviously thrives off this stuff!
You are right except it’s not racist asking the black woman for a manager, he would have even asked a white person, he just didn’t know who the manager was.
@@thecamillarose9806 Because he's looking for a million dollar ghetto payday. If you make a huge ruckus with these corporations and say you are gonna sue, they will most likely cut you a very large check because they don't want the bad publicity.
… As an ex Chick-fil-A worker, we were terrified of writing anything offense. I was reprimanded after a husband requested his wife’s order to be under “Crazy Lady,” I refused and put it under lady. He got so upset by that. Writing names is scary, especially when they sound the same to other words, I started using generic names if I couldn’t figure it out 😭😭
There are people who jokingly give ridiculous names all the time. My name is Zak. Can't tell you how many times my order says Jack. I work with teenagers. I have watched them give their names as "Captain America," the "Hulk," etc. I have said it again and again. When you want to see racism everywhere, you will see racism everywhere, even if it is not even there.
I have to point this out: Most places don't have video of someone taking your order! In other words, the worker spelled the name as Monkey WITHOUT seeing the skin color of the person making the order!! So, the person ordering could have been white for all that person knew. It, therefore, could literally not have anything to do with race, lol. Also, I've had my name wrongly spelled before (and my first name). The funniest was Boo rather than Boone XD LOL.
Well you can kind of tell he's black by his voice. But that doesn't matter. There's nothing racist about this situation. The worker heard something that sounded like "Monkeys" so that's what he typed in the system. People give fake names all the time. The worker isn't gonna question it and say, "No, I need a real name..." They're just gonna go with what you tell them and that's that. The worker heard "Monkeys" so he typed "Monkeys".
Besides, if he was doing it to be racist, he'd most likely write "Monkey" singular instead of plural. Why would he write Monkeys when there was only one person. This big crybaby is too greedy and eager for easy money to think things out properly.
Except, at a lot if chick fil as, they have team members standing in the drive through taking orders face to face with iPad, and only use the speakers at certain times of the day, like really early in the morning before there are a lot of cars or employees there
I was at Wendy's once with a friend. They were very crowded, and it was loud. They asked for my friend's name, he told them "Kenny." The very flamboyantly gay black man behind the counter looked confused and asked if that was really his name. Kenny just says "yeah," and we didn't think anything else of it. He finally gets his order, and it says "Kitty" on the receipt. We both thought it was hilarious. We still joke about it to this day.
i work at cfa, the amount of ppl that give us a fake name just to be funny wouldn’t make me think twice if someone gave me the name monkeys. there’s a guy that comes by regularly that gives the name donald trump. literally dude get over it.
Oh my goodness. These people. Everybody needs to be a victim these days because they have nothing else in their sad miserable lives. What is the world coming to? 😒🙄
I work at chick fil a, and its almost impossible to hear their name when there are cars going by, loud engines are in the drive thru, and quiet talkers as well as a headset on your ears.
@@kRuBe. yeah that’s totally understandable but would you ever put someone’s name as Monkeys? I mean come on… that takes some level of stupidity or malice to think that’s someone’s name
@@pieorion883 There are people who put weird shit as "names" on their orders just for a prank. It happened at Starbucks & other places before. The employee thought he was one of those pranksters. So, was the employee wrong? Yes. Was the employee racist? Don't think so.
@@pieorion883 Well i'm not him. If i get a weird name or a name that was spoken quietly or i didn't understand then i'll always clarify but that's just me and it's not every CFA employee that has to do that. Also yeah, I get a lot of weird "names" and I usually just stop questioning it. The drive thru worker misheard and probably should've clarified but he definitely did not deserve the mega-karen level response.
@@pieorion883I work at Chick-fil-A. Yes I would put someone’s name as monkeys. We get alllll types of names… people name their kids crazy stuff and people all give fake names all the time. It’s very common so you learn to just roll with it. Plus you’re lucky if we can even hear your name. If you’ve ever worked in fast food you’d know it’s not uncommon to mishear and put down the wrong name.
I've worked on the phone for years, and I cannot tell you how many times people have mistaken me saying my name - Rob - as Ralph. Marquise to Monkeys sounds closer than Ralph does to Rob.
What is most disturbing is wanting to see someone else’s livelihood destroyed. Instead of an apology he wanted to see the kid’s head roll. What a sad excuse for a man. Giant sensitive baby.
I worked at CFA for 8 years, and I hope that employee wasn’t disciplined at all. It’s hard to hear on those headsets sometimes especially with all the other noise surrounding the worker and noises outside. Good on that manager for protecting her employee though.
It could be Lez in actuality. You're associating that screw up with the word "Lesbian"... Your full name is Elizabeth. And for short, you go with Liz. Correct? If your name was Leslie... You could go with Lez. But this happens all the time because names don't actually matter. The only thing that really matters is the customer gets what they ordered lol.
@@Hi_MyNameIs_Bill so? I worked at a Starbucks from 06-09, and I got every "name imaginable from Luke Skywalker, to Ashley Tisdale(it was the 2000's, man), to Banana(that dude was so high, he was memorable). So "Monkeys" isn't out of the question.
I worked at a call center and, as a man, was called GRETCHEN. I was shocked enough to say NO NOT GRETCHEN. SINCE THAT DAY, ITS BEEN NOTHING MORE THEN A JOKE....and I got over it. Marquis needs to do the same
One of my coworkers misheard "Antonio" as "Toenail." People have called me "Eric," "Israel," and so many other things. You have to say your name very clearly when introducing yourself. Can't take anything for granted...
My name’s Brigid and it’s never put down correctly. But on one occasion a Chick-fil-A worker butchered it so badly that she put down Idjit, but I just laughed and went on with my day
Whoever coined the term eagerly offended and not easily offended nailed it. There are people that wake up everyday with the intent to be actively offended or outraged. What a sad existence.
It sounded like he said mon-keys to me the first time before he repeated his name and I’m not hearing it through a crappy speaker in a crowded restaurant 😂 he needs to enunciate better!
I worked at cfa. You will get in trouble if you don’t put a name on the order, like big trouble. I don’t blame the kid for not knowing what to put. If you don’t follow the handbook to a tee you get written up working there because they are very strict. It’s a big reason why they are so efficient. When I didn’t know someone’s name I just asked “can you spell that for me” and that usually cleared things up but a lot of the time the costumer rushes through the order and I can hardly tell what they were saying. Just an unfortunate situation all around
@@Hi_MyNameIs_Bill oh no I agree. That’s why I said I “worked” there lol Get this, they also have a three minute late policy. I got stopped by a train once and was 5 minutes late and they wrote me up. Also they don’t usually acknowledge sick notes from ur doctor if you can’t find coverage for ur shift. They will still write you up and you can’t have ur phone on you while u work. Like I’m a grown adult and I can’t have my phone? Wild
@@bolivia.j Wow! The CFA in my area must be super-lax. I’m usually five minutes late every day, and they still tolerate (even like me) for some reason 🤣 And when I call out sick, I never thought about getting a doctor’s note. They just let it slide. They must love me, I guess. 😂
Marquise needs to grow up and get over himself. If someone came up and told me his name was Joaquin, and I had never heard the name before because I didn't live in a heavily Hispanic area, I might mistake it for something akin to "walking." Seriously...

As a 17 year old who is currently working at Chick Fil A, I cannot tell you how difficult it is to hear someone. Between revving engines on the highway, kids crying in the back of the customer’s car and my manager or coworker talking to me in my headset, it’s extremely difficult to hear what the customer is saying. In my head, I’m just thinking about “what was the last thing they ordered?” “when am I getting off work cause I have an assignment due tonight.” and “dang my feet hurt cause I’ve been standing here for 5 hours already.” I love my job but some customers just need to be more empathetic.
Fellow chick fil a employee here, and I completely agree!
I just kind of figured that is the case. That’s why I make sure to enunciate and spell it out. The words are barely distinguishable.
Yep. I don't even bother complaining if my order is wrong in most cases, because I know what the job is like. We're so angry at every perceived slight these days. Missing fries? Cool, just ask and be happy!

When I go out to eat with my son, I always give them a fake name. Prime, Sonic, Lightning McQueen, Optimus, etc. He always gets excited when they call out our name ❤
I worked at a 7-11 and we did doordash orders and I'd see weird fake names ALL THE TIME. Dude was just looking for something to be offended about... Just like everyone else these days 🙄
I had an order called Your Majesty so when I gave him his food I did a little bow and I think that made his day lol.
Names like Fagot and Knigger have been observed in the wild.
Only way it could get worse is if it was a mobile order, and he put the name in.
I work as a cashier, ppl will do anything to be a victim or try to get free stuff
My dad told the cashier today she was doing an excellent job. She proceeded to tell him of a lady that asked for the manager and tried to have her fired because she put the tomatoes on top of the onions while bagging.
I cashiered and I was told the vegetables go with the other vegetables. I have never heard of tomatoes and onions having to be separated before. And most cashiers if you tell them how you want things bagged are quiet accommodating with the request.
Some people don't just want to watch the world burn. They want to actively set it on fire and then complain its too hot and smoky.
You should always reply, "Sorry sir/maam, I just work at this here counter to pass some time, get out of the house, and talk to a few people. Take it up with the manager of this dump. Next?"
Working with the public sucks. From experience.
@@Fickji A lady tried getting someone fired for helping put her food in bags? I think it's ridiculous how people make a big deal about food being in the same bag as something else. Who really cares? Drive your food home and put it in the refrigerator or wherever else it belongs. People cry over nothing.
I don't have money, so I'm gonna make a scene and try to get it out of this company.
Being completely serious, I heard him say "I told him Monkeese. That's not even close to Monkeese." and had to go back and listen again because I was like what the hell kind of name is Monkeese?🤣🤣🤣🙄
I heard Marquees
@@Photik I, along with the overwhelming majority of all people on Earth with an internet connection, heard “Maw-kees”, which can absolutely be mistaken over an intercom for “Monkeys”.
Yes, me too!
Same here, I didn't even know what he said his name actually was until Brett said it. They sounded identical with his accent.
bro me tooo😂😂😂
I wouldn’t put it pass this guy to have said “Monkeys” on the intercom for the sake of attention and to go viral. Sadly this is America nowadays
not to mention that location seems to be at least half black. when he talks to the cashier or manager, you see 2 white people and 3 black people.
I highly suspect this might be the most racist location. They probably don't even pay those 3 black employees.
Ya as someone who worked in fast food the amount of people that use fake name or dumb shit is way more than people think.
@@Soar_LeanI've never worked fast food but I can imagine. Especially on a Friday or Saturday night when the kids are out and start to get the munchies.
He can't pronounce his own name. It's pronounced "mar-kees" but he pronounced it "maw-kees." Add to that the fact that you're talking into an intercom, which is never a clear way to communicate.
I was a manager at a fast food chain for 7 years. People think they are funny sometimes and give joke names like this. The minimum wage worker doesn’t get paid enough to care and puts what they hear.
Exactly, my son uses a fake name all the time.
I frequent this particular Chick Fil A from this story. They are always kind and courteous. This was not an intentional racial act
was going to say the same thing. they go out of their way to be kind there.
Can honestly say I've never been in a Chic-Fil-A or In-N-Out and received anything but the most courteous of customer service. And I've seen customers who definitely did not deserve the best and most courteous customer service, but got it just the same. The manager in this video deserves much praise for protecting her employee and being extremely professional and respectful to this customer.
Correct. Just the usual suspects trying to grift off the working people
As a 53 year old white male who lives about 30 miles from this restaurant , I would probably have thought to ask him to spell his name, if I wasn't super busy. But I would not expect my 17 year old son working what is probably his first job ever, to think to do so. My name is Joe and I can't count the number of times I've either been called John or had it come out on a receipt as John. Nobody really cares what your name is dude! Get over yourself!
The only intentionally racist person in this whole issue was the man who felt offended.
The moment he walked in and demanded to see the employee that took his order was the moment he became a threat to that employee.
Exactly. That manager was thinking that, too. He was just trying to keep escalating it despite them trying to deescalate.
Also he was trying to threaten that young man’s job over an honest mistake
Yeah bro like let’s be real the company can’t fire that kid anyways, because it would be grounds for wrongful termination.
The sad thing nowadays is the manager can't possibly know if the guy is just some overly sensitive weirdo, a douchebag who just wants a confrontation to film for his social media, or a legitimately dangerous nutter who's going to try to attack a kid over an honest mistake.
He put his name on the app as monkeys…
Refunding a meal for a small mistake mite be the most Chick-fil-A thing I’ve ever heard.
"Mite"? You're the guy who wrote "Monkeys", aren't you?
That's pretty typical for fast food, except without the eye-roll most fast food places would provide, free of charge.
it used to be more common, but it's a lost art.
Dude. I had a guy at the Chick-fil-A drive thru ask if he could pray for me because I told him I got a new job. THAT was the most Chick-fil-A thing ever, and I go out of my way to go to that location now.
That is a good manager, understanding that the employee misunderstood the name, and wisely chose not to fire the poor kid.
What this guy doesn't get is, the workers in Chick-fil-A don't give a damn about him enough to insult him like he was claiming he was insulted.
This is perfectly put 🫡
So true, you aren't important enough for 99.9 percent of service workers to care.

He's just pretending to be a victim. He's hoping for a huge payout.
I think he wants a payout or clout. If the kid had asked him to spell his name, he might be recording a video claiming that the kid demonstrated incredulity at a non anglo name. And he didn't sound like he was upset. He invoked the trauma of slavery in his letter. It seems calculating.
agreed. throwing in his ancestors pain felt like he wanted a lifetimes supply of takeaway
As a former Chick-fil-A employee, the employee was definitely on autopilot. When the drive through is completely backed out you want to take orders as fast and accurate as possible, I misspelled so many names because I was on autopilot. The reason why the manager took the sticker off the bag was to check his claim and they gave him a refund to deescalate the situationg and remedy this mistake. I feel bad for the kid, like how miserable of a guy do you have to be to try and ruin a kids life through what is an obvious mistake.
They couldn't locate my order once & had the manager come look after the 2nd time they asked for my name at the C-f-A window. Manager (white lady) looked flummoxed for a few beats, then burst out laughing while simultaneously trying to apologize profusely for the misunderstanding and wait. The car hop (a sweet but tired black teen girl) had typed my name as "Lausey." Racism? Nope. Hard-working & tired teen who isn't an expert in 5,000-year-old names of Roman origin. Lots of black people don't know how to spell Lucy. A fair amount of white folk don't, either. Hispanics never miss. It's not racism, it's just culture. Older white people are named Lucy, and it's only made a rebound with babies in the last few years. Very few black people have the name. No big deal. I laughed along & got my order (with plenty of extra C-f-A sauce, I might add). Nothing worth crying over. Could've made a big deal & insinuated that the car hop was calling me "lousy," but even if she were, it didn't land. In the end, even if she were trying to insult me, if was really only good for a laugh.
Maybe instead of having a show: “So You Want to be a Millionaire”; we have one called, “So You Want to be a Victim?” 😂
Chick fil a employee here. I once handed out the food for a middle eastern couple who gave the name as "Fukma' pronounced exactly how it looks. They spelled the name out for the order taker and everything. There was another girl who came through every now and then named Sparkles. I worked with a Loveangel. It's hard to question mishearing a name when people give you crazy stuff all the time.
Crazy names aside, people do not seem to realize how ridiculously difficult it usually is to hear someone talking through a car while you're on the outside, especially if they are a quiet talker, have a deeper voice, or are talking from the passenger seat. It's just the way your voice projects. Outside, it easily projects in, but from inside, it's like the noise just bounces inside the car.
Also, the way he enunciated his name and the word monkeys, they literally sound almost the exact same 😂
Grammar Police, sorry/not sorry ... it's "enunciate."
@lucycarlisle9120 Oh my goodness 😂 I promise I know how to spell enunciate. Don't ask me what happened there lol
I worked with a woman who went by Bug. Some asked her if that was her real name and she leveled him with a glare and said YES. So dollars to doughnuts some out there is running around named monkey.
Reminds me of Fuk Mei and Fuk Yu from Goldmember.
I would like to add this, that yesterday, I took the order of someone who legitimately gave me the name Bubbles
A kid misheard this mumbly guy or thought he was joking. 😅That's it.
It could be both too. The guy nearly mumbles when he speaks. Also, the worker could've thought he was joking. But instead of questioning the customer he just went along with it and served him what he ordered.
Marquise does sound like Monkeys - especially when it's said by someone who basically mumbles like this guy in the video.
Especially through those drive thru head phones, I worked in a drive thru as a teen and people's vehicles are loud and they mumble and then get mad when you can't hear them
My name is Kate, I have had orders with my name saying, K, Kay, and my personal favorite “Cake.” That was the day I realized I can’t pronounce my own name

This story reminds of the time about 10 years ago when I was shopping. A polite young employee asked if she could help me find anything and I said "No, thank you". A little later she asked a black man the same thing and he immediately started yelling at her for being "racist" and that he was no thief and had way more money than her etc. I went over and told him that she had asked me the same question. He seemed genuinely embarrassed, mumbled something and left.
i’m sure she was very thankful that you said that! good for you
"I have way more money than you so I can't be a thief" is something a thief or at very least an incredibly dumb weirdo would say.
I work in retail. Exactly how a thief would act.
why do they always play the victim

I would have likely spelled it "Andi," but too many of my coworkers would likely spell it "Andy." Too many of the Gen. Z crew members don't know how to spell common names. I've seen a crew member spell a male customer's name Erin, and a female customer's name Aaron. I've seen the reverse gender spelling way too many times and that isn't the worst. I've seen them spell some names so bad that I wasn't able to decypher them.

I never understood why fast food joints in the US ask for your name to begin with. Here they just call out what's in the order, if they don't simply remember you and signal you to come pick it up.
It would not surprise me at all if he actually said monkeys so he could come back and be a victim.
It sounded exactly like he said “My name is Monkeys, it sounds nothing like Monkeys”
I worked at Chick-fil-A and had a man come through whose name was Blackman. He was an older black man who would get quite upset if you didn't get his name right on the first time. Had other names come through that if I spelled them like they said them I'd be accused of racism. Then they'd scan their app and it was spelled even more unbelievably than I thought...
Chic fil a gets my name wrong literally 9/10 visits. They got my car color wrong. They called my truck a van. They don’t care about your name enough to use it as an insult
My cousin will intentionally give a funny name, like "monkeys", when asked by restaurants. I don't know how these employees are to differentiate between a troll and a mistake.
Which is more likely: 1. A chick Fil A worker decided to throw away their job and be branded as a racist online because they just couldn’t resist calling one specific black customer a monkey or 2. Someone heard Marquis and thought he said ‘Monkeys’?
intercoms don't typically have cameras to see who the driver is or what their skin tone is.
They were outside with a tablet handling orders because they were swamped, so my guess is that autocorrect kicked in and changed Marquis (which isn't common) into monkeys.

CFA employee here, same age as this kid- I've heard a ton of crazy names in the Drive-Thru. Monkeys is not by any means far off the realm of possibilities.
Also, depending on when this man ordered, it could have been the middle of lunch rush with cars lined up through the entire drive-thru. I've worked through those and they're BRUTAL, speed is everything. On top of all that, I only have ever HEARD the name Marquis once because it's my friend's dad's name. There's a lot of reasons this guy could have misheard it and jumping to racism is ridiculous.
Quick question since you work there. Do people normally sign in under other peoples names or do people who take the order not end up on the receipts? Just find it kinda weird that the receipt says the team members name is Kayla.
@@Roland_Deschain677 Inside, usually we have a Team Leader (manager) signed in on the registers, then have Team Members take the orders- unless a Team Member is supposed to be on the register for their whole shift. Outside, however, the Team Member is supposed to sign in onto the iPad themselves. If they're on a headset taking outside orders through the speaker, usually they're on a register signed into under the Team Leader.
That's just my location so it may be different for others.
@@Roland_Deschain677 I worked there for around a year, and I'm pretty sure it is because that is the person at the window who printed the receipt. You have to sign in with your employee id to handle the window job, so management knows who to ask if the money is slightly off.
@@Kal-213 most point-of-sale or pos machines will require workers to sign-in with their unique employee ID to keep track of the cash flow.
@@HigumaHoney Kayla might well have been the person assigned to and signed in at that window for the shift and the 17 year old could have just stepped in to give her a hand when it got extra busy. If that was the case, I doubt that they would have gone through the steps of employee number 1 (Kayla) signing out and employee number 2 (the 17 year old) signing in, every time he stepped in for a couple of minutes to help.

In a shocking story this week we find a 52 year old man attempting to bully a child for getting his name wrong. The adult man believes himself to be the victim in this situation. Never in all his 52 years has anyone ever misheard, mispronounced, or misspelled his name - without extreme and violent racist intent.

People are literally walking around alllllll day waiting to be offended. Its like a damn game. To put so much effort into this must be exhausting.
1. They definitely misheard him. One time when I was taking orders, in the lunch rush in the middle of a southern summer, I had a costumer named “Hope” but I heard “Help” so I put help and nobody cared.
2. The people handing out the food absolutely could’ve just taken off the sticker and handed him his food. Sometimes when I’m handing out food the person taking the order jokingly puts "PoPo" for a cop who's in our drive-thru. before i hand them their food i always take off the sticker to avoid something like this
3. She wasn’t trying to remove the evidence when she took off the sticker, she was trying to give him a refund. To give a refund you need the transaction number (the four digits on the top right, which for him is 4583) thats why she took the receipt. I'm sure if he asked for it back after the fact she would've given it to him

As an ex Chick-fil-A worker, we were terrified of writing anything offense. I was reprimanded after a husband requested his wife’s order to be under “Crazy Lady,” I refused and put it under lady. He got so upset by that. Writing names is scary, especially when they sound the same to other words, I started using generic names if I couldn’t figure it out

If I got a receipt with my name being "Monkeys," I would just laugh it off and not get offended. That's just hilarious.
Same lol
This is so funny because this is not even 10 minutes from my home. It was a complete misunderstanding! Poor 17 year old college kid misheard him.
I have to point this out: Most places don't have video of someone taking your order! In other words, the worker spelled the name as Monkey WITHOUT seeing the skin color of the person making the order!! So, the person ordering could have been white for all that person knew. It, therefore, could literally not have anything to do with race, lol.
Also, I've had my name wrongly spelled before (and my first name). The funniest was Boo rather than Boone XD LOL.
Well you can kind of tell he's black by his voice. But that doesn't matter. There's nothing racist about this situation. The worker heard something that sounded like "Monkeys" so that's what he typed in the system. People give fake names all the time. The worker isn't gonna question it and say, "No, I need a real name..." They're just gonna go with what you tell them and that's that.
The worker heard "Monkeys" so he typed "Monkeys".
Besides, if he was doing it to be racist, he'd most likely write "Monkey" singular instead of plural. Why would he write Monkeys when there was only one person. This big crybaby is too greedy and eager for easy money to think things out properly.
It's a CFA, so they likely have face to face ordring
Except, at a lot if chick fil as, they have team members standing in the drive through taking orders face to face with iPad, and only use the speakers at certain times of the day, like really early in the morning before there are a lot of cars or employees there
I was at Wendy's once with a friend. They were very crowded, and it was loud. They asked for my friend's name, he told them "Kenny." The very flamboyantly gay black man behind the counter looked confused and asked if that was really his name. Kenny just says "yeah," and we didn't think anything else of it. He finally gets his order, and it says "Kitty" on the receipt. We both thought it was hilarious. We still joke about it to this day.

We get alllll types of names… people name their kids crazy stuff and people all give fake names all the time. It’s very common so you learn to just roll with it. Plus you’re lucky if we can even hear your name.
If you’ve ever worked in fast food you’d know it’s not uncommon to mishear and put down the wrong name.
I've worked on the phone for years, and I cannot tell you how many times people have mistaken me saying my name - Rob - as Ralph. Marquise to Monkeys sounds closer than Ralph does to Rob.
People are gonna start listing being a victim on their resumes since thats they're whole identity
What is most disturbing is wanting to see someone else’s livelihood destroyed. Instead of an apology he wanted to see the kid’s head roll. What a sad excuse for a man. Giant sensitive baby.
I worked at CFA for 8 years, and I hope that employee wasn’t
disciplined at all. It’s hard to hear on those headsets sometimes especially with all the other noise surrounding the worker and noises outside. Good on that manager for protecting her employee though.
So Marquis talked to who on the SUNDAY meeting..?
I do believe the store is empty on that day. 🤔
That didn't stop him from talking. 😅
No, no, no. It's MaR-KeY$.
My name is Liz, and Starbucks legit has put "Lez" on my cup. I thought it was hilarious 🤷
HOTTTTTT
You never told your boyfriend you're a vegetarian???
It could be Lez in actuality. You're associating that screw up with the word "Lesbian"...
Your full name is Elizabeth. And for short, you go with Liz. Correct?
If your name was Leslie... You could go with Lez.
But this happens all the time because names don't actually matter. The only thing that really matters is the customer gets what they ordered lol.
@@SelectiveApathy82 what?
@@Hi_MyNameIs_Bill so? I worked at a Starbucks from 06-09, and I got every "name imaginable from Luke Skywalker, to Ashley Tisdale(it was the 2000's, man), to Banana(that dude was so high, he was memorable). So "Monkeys" isn't out of the question.
I worked at a call center and, as a man, was called GRETCHEN. I was shocked enough to say NO NOT GRETCHEN. SINCE THAT DAY, ITS BEEN NOTHING MORE THEN A JOKE....and I got over it. Marquis needs to do the same
One of my coworkers misheard "Antonio" as "Toenail." People have called me "Eric," "Israel," and so many other things. You have to say your name very clearly when introducing yourself. Can't take anything for granted...
Eric sounds nothing close to that
this is like criticizing a starbucks employee for putting "Quandale Dingle" in place of "Quantin (or Quentin) Dinkle"
Nobody is named "Quantin"
@@SelectiveApathy82 totally, surely not a satirical name I just made up out of nowhere to prove a point; though, I suppose the name Quentin also works
I'd actually chuckle for a second before moving on with my day lol
@@SelectiveApathy82 Yes there is. You would think there isn't but you'd be surprised at some names people possess in this world.
He's training for the Oppression Olympics 2028
My name’s Brigid and it’s never put down correctly. But on one occasion a Chick-fil-A worker butchered it so badly that she put down Idjit, but I just laughed and went on with my day
Aww was the worker Bobby Singer lol
Whoever coined the term eagerly offended and not easily offended nailed it. There are people that wake up everyday with the intent to be actively offended or outraged. What a sad existence.
It sounded like he said mon-keys to me the first time before he repeated his name and I’m not hearing it through a crappy speaker in a crowded restaurant 😂 he needs to enunciate better!
I worked at cfa. You will get in trouble if you don’t put a name on the order, like big trouble. I don’t blame the kid for not knowing what to put. If you don’t follow the handbook to a tee you get written up working there because they are very strict. It’s a big reason why they are so efficient. When I didn’t know someone’s name I just asked “can you spell that for me” and that usually cleared things up but a lot of the time the costumer rushes through the order and I can hardly tell what they were saying. Just an unfortunate situation all around
Good wisdom
Who cares how "strict" they are. Tell them to pay more if they want to micromanage their young workers. Chic-Fil-A - it's not that serious...
@@Hi_MyNameIs_Bill oh no I agree. That’s why I said I “worked” there lol
Get this, they also have a three minute late policy. I got stopped by a train once and was 5 minutes late and they wrote me up. Also they don’t usually acknowledge sick notes from ur doctor if you can’t find coverage for ur shift. They will still write you up and you can’t have ur phone on you while u work. Like I’m a grown adult and I can’t have my phone? Wild
@@bolivia.j Wow! The CFA in my area must be super-lax. I’m usually five minutes late every day, and they still tolerate (even like me) for some reason 🤣
And when I call out sick, I never thought about getting a doctor’s note. They just let it slide.
They must love me, I guess. 😂
My 60 year-old husband always gives the name “Big Sexy” at Chick Fil-A. Marquise should try it…no one ever screws it up. 😂
I use Dick Hertz, it's fun.
I’m disappointed the manager automatically threw her employee under the bus.
I am sensing a whole lot of Kramer vs Coffee Cup.
Marquise needs to grow up and get over himself. If someone came up and told me his name was Joaquin, and I had never heard the name before because I didn't live in a heavily Hispanic area, I might mistake it for something akin to "walking." Seriously...
I’m pretty sure he said “monkeys” to the drive through guy, in order to make a profit somehow! 🤮
Nah,he said his name and mistakes were made. Oh well! LOL! Just respect others and go on your way!!😊
Did you know a sports reporter was suspended for saying guerilla warfare to describe Serena Williams' tennis playing style?
Yes. It did not make sense then and it still doesn’t make sense.
@@davesalisbury1820it does though
😮..... 😂😂😂😂
@@davesalisbury1820 The complainant may, for all I know, believe that _gerrrillya_ is a large primate. Even with a Spanish accent, rrrolling 'r' and all that jazz. Why? They appear to be primed to hear synonyms for simians when people describe Serena Williams.
I don't share that perception. I think Serena looks _way_ too good to be a primate with a 'g'.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The fact that he put it up on utube is all you need to know about him!
I’ve said my name is Lily and the person replied “Willy?!” I was like yup. 😂
My name is Brett. The amount I get called Bread is a lot but ever time its so funny to me.
A grown man wanting to confront a minor is the weirdest part of this situation 🥴
Then: *Jussie Smollett.*
Now: *Juicy Chick-fil-A.*
He wants money, like im more convinced now that i heard his letter to corporate.
I'm a victim, you're a victim, wouldn't you like to be a victim, too?
Poor little super-sensitive baby. I think he was on his period.
He pretends to be crying on the way out.
Ohhhhhhh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh dassss sexissssst! YT mods gon' come fer ya now!!!!!!!
Brett you endorse ruff greens so much it makes me want to buy it for my nonexistent dog 😂
