Three friends went out for a “girls” night Thursday evening and had absolutely no idea what they had in store.
The trio chose to have dinner at at a local restaurant, and while they had no complaints about the food in the establishment, the outrageous bill they received hurt to the core.

But wait… it wasn’t the price of their meal that made them do a double take, printed on the top of the receipt in black & white were the words “Fat Girls”!
Read more about this outrageous story below…
According to ABCNews, the friends had dined out at the Stockton, Calif., restaurant, which is a part of the Cameo Casino Restaurant, on Thursday.
As they were preparing to pay, the ladies received a bill listing charges for three tri-tips with fries and three sodas, for a total of $25.50. But wait… the bartender who typed in the order had apparently typed in “Fat Girls” to keep track of their bill.
“I got the bill, I was looking at bill [and] I was like, ‘Why does this receipt say ‘fat girls?’” customer Christine Duran said.

The ladies quizzed their waiter when he returned to their table but he denied any involvement.
He said that “Jeff”, whose name was on the receipt, must have typed the offensive slur into the computer as he was taking their order. But he said Jeff had gone for the night.
The three women, upset and outraged, demanded to see a manager.
When Duran asked a manager for an explanation, he “had like a smirk on his face, like it was funny but trying not to laugh,” she said.
The dining experience went from bad to worse when the restaurant demanded they still pay the bill, offering them a 25 percent discount and then a 50 percent discount. They declined both offers.
In a Facebook message overnight, Maggie Lewis, the Cameo Club Casino owner, apologized and said the insulting treatment Duran and her friends had received is “intolerable in our establishment.”
Jimmy Siemers, co-owner of Chilly D’s, didn’t work the night Duran and her friends received the offensive receipt, but he said he is trying to clean up the mess.
“I just want to tell them we’re sincerely sorry and we’ll do everything in our power to make sure this never happens to anyone again,” he said.
The incident has sparked major discussions online and in this age of social media many have shared their disappointments as well as their support via the company’s face book page:
Makes you wonder how your waitress/waiter is referring to you these days… huh?
Should the company fire the employee who wrote the ‘Fat Girls” label on the receipt?
Thoughts?

SMDH
Thank God for good sense, common sense and knowing how to ignore those with NO SENSE!
What ever happened to table 1,2 and 3 to keep track of a bill?
You should never concern yourself with other people’s opinion of you is..
Yes, very offensive! They should have been issued an apology immediately. And yes, their bill should have been taken care of. Maybe it would not have gotten all of this negative attention had the Manager rectified the situation when it happened (side eye) Bad for business!
My dad owns a restaurant, and whenever I fill in for a girl as hostess, we take down how many people are in their party, what time they arrived, a description of what they have on or something unique about them, stuff that’s not insensitive or offensive. These people nowadays go all out and don’t care what they say to people. SMH.
The server should be fired. Anybody who’s that careless with the patrons…people who are detrimental to the livelihood of the owners…are not to be trusted.
The manager should be punished or let go too, because he smirked when this was first brought to his attention.
I’m proud of these young ladies for going public.
well them chicks are a bit HEALTHY.. lol..
Actually not, because they’re overweight. Writing fat, overweight, healthy, heavy…they should’ve left his smug ignorant ass with a fat lip. And a fat chance in hell of buying Xmas gifts without an employment check.
Yes, they are obese, but what does that have to do with the unprofessional behavior of the bartender?!
They need to take away the hostess and server’s ability to write in things on the receipt.
That was so disrespectful. It doesn’t matter if saying they are "Fat Girls" is the truth or not. It all boils down to being respected and obviously these ladies were not given the respect they deserved. I’m sure the girls realize that they are not a size 2 but describing their weight in an ignorant manner is not cool at all.
I would not have dare paid for that meal. I would’ve walked out and had my lawyer on speed dail if they called the police on me.
I wouldn’t have dared*
That’s why so many of our children are killing theirselves or have an eating disorder bcuz of things just like this both of them should b fired an aint no way in hell I wld have paid that bill
society is so screwed up. People’s minds are so messed up to the point where any woman a size 12 and up are viewed as inferior, and are forced to have gym memberships and diet plans shoved down our throats. Why can’t people just accept the fact that everyone is not built to be a size 4. I have dealt with weight all my life I’ve maintained a size 16 for over 2 years now and the older I get the more comfortable with my body I become, but I still battle that feeling of low self esteem from time to time.
Prejudice against overweight people IS NOT OK and the company should fire the employee who was ignorant enough to disrespect paying customers!!
It’s not like it was a lie….they are FAT. If they are so insulted they should stop eating all that fatty shit and walk more often. Why get insulted if people are telling the truth. I just hate this new society. Swear. Hate social media and all this other bullshit. The bitches are more than fat, they are obese.
WHAT!? You have got to be joking with this comment. Regardless to how they looked they were paying customers and deserved to be served AND respected as such. If folks want to hear how fat they are they can go to a Dr for that and PAY for that service. Why have we become so insensitive as a society that we can think something like this is right?! They need to number their damn tables…put THAT number on the ticket and do their damn job. I guess if your waiter appears to be gay it is appropriate to say "hey Sissy we are ready to order" heeeell no it’s not right… Folks better start looking in the mirror and check their own imperfections and worry about those.
Ok, no shade, but those women aren’t fat… they are obese. This is fact. And we need to stop acting like obesity should be considered along the same lines as being a minority. The U.S. is full of too many lazy, OBESE people. It has become an epidemic, and what people don’t realize is it affects our communities, our lives, our economies. I bet these women were going HAM at this restaurant, and no it was not ok for the server to take it there, but it ain’t the truth unless it hurts.
Irregardless what the server thought about them, putting fat on the ticket was insensitive. These ladies were paying customers and a server or business (that wants to stay in business) should not insult the customers. We seem to find it acceptable to talk about someone’s weight, looks, hair etc. Now, if the server had put Nigger, Honkey, Faggot, Chink or any other racial slur we would not be so quick to accept this type of behavior.
I think today’s society believes that one should say and do anything and it should be OK. Wrong! There is a social grace called tact. We should all use it.
OMG!!! Out of control but truth about Americans overall and our need for having more.

Yes the women were fat, obese, etc. but that is no excuse to insult and humiliate a paying customer. This society now believes rudeness is realness, insults are honesty and passing judgement is just telling it like it is… This is a real epidemic now. What if it said "niggers" or "flat asses" or "real fags" oh then it wouldn’t be just the honest truth, it would be insulting. What if those women suffered from a thyroid condition or side effects from medication? I don’t understand how people can write this behavior off just because of their appearance? No, that does not fly with me. In these times where people are committing suicide over words, little girls are throwing up or just not eating to be rail thin, we need to use what we were taught. If you don’t have anything nice to say then do not say something at all. This restaurant should have fired that man immediately, comped their meal and given them a free meal next time they visited at the minimum. Let it had been me… Smh. Incidents like this make me realize that putting my writing on hold and pursuing my J.D. is the right decision.
We have forgotten the social grace of tact. Everyone thinks that they should be able to say and do anything….that act is defined as chaos. Keep writing and pursuing your law degree! We need both.
I think you’re right. It’s not that they were fat but different from what the norm should be. Nigger, Faggot, Wet Back, in essence all of those titles have the same purpose.

Guess I better start reading my receipts. I know i have regrets about leaving some of them tips and to find out that he or she has put a smart ass remark on it.Now when they ask if I want my receipt I will say yes.
smh @ iamthetrubutter……I don’t even have words for you. You have displayed so much ignorance in your comment.
omg! the bar tender must have drinking as much as he was pouring. The may have been put to bed if the manager comped there bill and apologized. The employee should be fired because he was very rude an unprofessional, yes he is entitled to his opinion but he was at work and should maintain a certain lever of professionalism.
All 3 of them ate for $25.50!! That is the most shocking thing about this story. The owner should just comp the meal and save face.
I will start by saying I am about 40lbs overweight myself, this I know! So why would I be offended when it is pointed out to me? If you are that sensitive about your weight, get your asses on a threadmill and work it out! I get so tired of having to tiptoe around everyones insecurities. They are fat, and to a Californian they are huge! Either they are going to own the fact that they are fat, and do something about it! Simple as that!
I wonder what else has been printed on the top of ppl’s bill at that restaurant! I don’t think the guy who wrote it should be fired, by all accounts the woman recieved good service & good food with no complaints. Believe it or not the person who called those woman "fat" may have inspired them to get in shape. Was it his place? ABSOLUTELY NOT, but sometimes the truth hurts!
All three women should have went ham on his azz!!!
Dana T.
I agree @DanaT
A similar incident happened to me a couple of months back. I went to restaurant and it was packed so I had to wait to be seated. When a table became available. The receptionist announced "handsome guy in the corner your table is ready" and motioned in my direction. The nerve of her putting me on blast like that. I felt it was insensitive to do such a thing. I look at myself in the mirror everyday and it is obvious that I have nice features, but for her to announce that to everyone within shouting distance was uncalled for and unprofessional. If I want to here someone tell me I am handsome I could easily go to a plastic surgeon for a consultation and have them tell me " You are handsome. You do not need any work." Anyway, during the course of dining I kept feeling people looking at me and whispering "damn that nigga handsome!" Even dudes were like "yeah he is handsome…and shit…no homo."
I was so embarrassed because I am really shy. I started feeling really uncomfortable and could not enjoy my meal. The atmosphere was diminished for me, but my presence seemed to lift everyone else’s spirits. I requested the manager and when she arrived I explained what happened. I noticed as I was explaining that she had a wide eyed, mouth wide open expression as if she couldn’t believe what I was saying.
Can you believe that instead of firing the receptionist and giving me a complimentary meal. She wrote on my receipt
"It’s true you are handsome" "Call me"
I mean the nerve of people. No tact at all.
I loved this. Write my next novel for me, will you?
NASTY and DISRESPECTFUL for positively, absolutely NO REASON!!!
