Video Shows Wendy’s manager calling Black employee a ‘b***h’, has now been fired
A video shows a Wendy’s assistant manager calling a female coworker a “b*tch” has been fired. The incident occurred two weeks ago and went viral after it was posted on TikTok according to TMZ.
General manager Sophia Cargill, in training at Wendy’s restaurant in Kalamazoo, Michigan recorded the footage of an assistant manager Michael yelled insults at her as proof of his behavior.
Michael is heard saying insults at the Black employee calling a “b*tch” and chastising her for being “f**king lazy.”
She informs him that his verbal harassment has been recorded and that his career at Wendy’s will be over but he responded saying fired back, “No it’s not.”
Cargill set up a GoFundMe page, explaining this wasn’t an isolated incident and that Michael didn’t just verbally attack her. He allegedly attempted to prevent her from advancing at her job and claims on multiple occasions to sabotage her employee training.
“I endured multiple occasions that I reported to the general manager and nothing was done,” she wrote on the page. She adds, the issue went far beyond Michael and was a systemic issue that led to her being suspended.
“I’m so sorry Sophia had to go through this and I hope @Wendys does the right thing,” wrote one supporter who also shared a video of Cargill on what she’d endured prior to the video.
It seems that making headlines with her video is what it took to finally turn the wheels of justice in Cargill’s favor. A representative of the fast food restaurant has confirmed that Michael has been fired and that Cargill will be reinstated at her position with back pay.
“We have no tolerance for harassment in the workplace,” the Wendy’s spokesperson told TMZ. “Upon learning of this situation, we acted immediately following our protocols and suspended those involved to run a thorough investigation.”
“I’m unsure if I want to return to Wendy’s,” Cargill wrote on her GoFundMe page.
