Story out of Harrisonburg, Virginia:
Many people throughout the Valley and nationwide have expressed outrage, after a Valley server got what she calls a "nasty and racist" comment on a receipt.
Now, the owner of the restaurant says she doesn't want the person responsible back in her business.
On Monday, Sadie Elledge served a man and woman two gyros, sodas, and a Greek salad at Jess' Lunch in downtown Harrisonburg. From the start, Elledge says she felt uncomfortable.
"They wouldn't talk to me. They would just nod their heads," said Elledge.
As the blonde woman signed the receipt, she left no tip. That's not unusual for any server, but the reason why she didn't leave the tip was something Elledge says she has never seen.
The receipt reads: "We only tip citizens."
It wasn't just disrespectful, but she says it is just plain wrong.
"I was born here but I'm Mexican and Honduran," said Elledge.
Adding another layer to her disbelief, Elledge says the woman herself had an accent. Jess' Lunch is an immigrant-created and owned business. Here's what Elledge's boss had to say about the note.
"Coward is the word to describe what they did. I have worse words to use," said Angeliki Floros, "But let's go with coward." Cont. (Video)
