That's nothing. Try wearing your hat while eating when the Canadian Sargeant-Major is around.

Regardless, he should have served the guy.

The teahouse should be boycotted:

"[Hodge] was aware what he was doing was probably contrary to our values and our philosophy as a company in terms of hospitality and inclusiveness," said Crimp.

"We don't discriminate against people based on political beliefs."

Aka, even if you wear a swastika armband to the restaurant you too won't be discriminated against. Totally gutless corporate response in order to not jeopardize the flow of the precious, precious money, no matter what piece of human swill walks in through the door.

And guess what, if the guy went to the Labour Board, he's probably win a settlement. Because firing is excessive.
I doubt he wants to, cuz it's probably such a shit job if he did what he did.
But you missed the whole point.
It's a TEA HOUSE. What kind of complete boor wears their baseball cap in a tea house? Obviously one who worships the world's biggest boor and is stupid enough to taunt people in a country at the start of a trade war.
One of the customers should've stood up, flipped that hat off his head and made him eat it.

Good points herbie.

I thought the firing was excessive as well. It would be interesting to know if the company would apply their policy regardless of the message or symbolism on any other form of attire besides a hat.

Idiots have a right to service too. This could end up with nobody getting food.

[herbie]

No, th guy could've easily defused it by making sure NOBODY wore at hat at the table.
FFS did your mother never teach you civilizes manners?
Pisses me off when I see some slob wearing a ratty cap in a dining establishment. I mean a genuine restaurant, not some slop serving shithole like McDucks

Just another line in the sand being crossed in the political partisanship war but hang on because with this much attention being paid to these clowns, it's going to get alot worse in the future.

I do wonder though, that if the owner of the Red Hen hadn't refused service to Sarah Huckabee Sanders if this guy would have made a stand for his "political" beliefs or, is this just another millennial "look at me" moment by some guy who hated his job and intended to get out it without looking like a quitter?

And for the record I agree with Herbie, if you're going to eat at a decent restaurant take your fucking hat off. Even in 1940 men took their hats off to dine and their heads didn't explode so have a little couth.

At least 20 years later, if I sat at the kitchen table with my cap on, the cap would go flying off in an instant... luckily without my head still in it.
