Domino’s fired worker for allegedly writing N-word instead of customer’s name on her order

The North Carolina Domino’s employee who was fired for writing the N-word on a customer’s order says it was a simple mistake, as he didn’t understand the customer’s name.

Myasia Nelson told WFMY that she placed a carry-out order for two pizzas and a side of wings at a Domino’s in Burlington, North Carolina Monday night. While waiting for the food, she noticed on the order board that instead of her name, the N-word, spelled “NIGA,” was displayed, the New York Post reports.

“Racial discrimination. That’s what I feel like it is, because if it were anyone else they would have never done that,” Nelson told WFMY.

Supervisor Junior Snyder said the employee claims it was a misspelling mistake because he couldn’t hear when Nelson originally said her name.

“He couldn’t hear what she was saying, he asked her twice, and apparently he just didn’t know how to spell it and punched in something; [that] is what he said,” Snyder said.

Nelson isn’t buying that excuse, claiming the employee only asked for her name once, and that it sounds nothing like the N-word or what he wrote on the order.

“You can’t work for your company,” Snyder said he told the employee. “We’re not like that.”

The employee has since been terminated and Snyder apologized to Nelson on camera.

“We did let the gentleman go, he no longer works for our company,” he explained to WFMY. “I apologized to [Nelson and her family] several times and all I can do is make sure it doesn’t happen again and train and make sure everyone understands we don’t tolerate this.”

Nelson was also offered a $50 gift card for pizzeria but turned it down because it’s “not worth what they did.”

“I don’t want my daughter growing up being called the words that they wrote about me or being called any type of name,” she said.

A spokesperson for Domino’s told Fox News that the company condemns the former employee’s actions.

“As you might expect, this behavior is repulsive and intolerable and has no place in our brand. There are more than 15,000 Domino’s units in 90 countries around the world – we are a diverse, inclusive brand and there is no tolerance for that behavior,” the company spokesperson said.

Nelson has accepts Snyders apology, but she says she would much rather an apology from the now former employee who typed ‘NIGA.’
