Maybe he was thinking of the coffee beans? No? No. He was just being an ignorant buck.

Watched the video. The guy has a really strong accent (doesn't speak English) and his name is "Peter," which does kind of like that slur when he says it. Also seems odd that this guy would be singled out in such a heavily populated Hispanic, where the majority of customers are going to be Latino.

But if this is intentional, the worker should definitely be fired.

Think of a burrito ingredient and add -er to the end of it. It's actually one of the dumbest insults tbh.

Regardless of his accent, it's customary to ask someone to repeat their name until you can understand it, not just make an assumption and opt for the racial slur.

To be honest, I'm surprised the name-on-the-cup thing hasn't caused more problems up to this point for people who have unconventional names. Wouldn't be shocked if Starbucks just ditched that whole practice and just everyone an order number.

In my case, if I ever get Starbucks and they ask for my name they usually ask me to repeat it and then clarify the spelling. I don't it's ever been much of a problem except for this incident because they're supposed to be clear with the customer in regards to what they're going to write down and then call out.

Literally the only reason I know of that slur is from Mind of Mencia. He was trying to get the n-word on a personalized license plate, but obviously they wouldn't let him. B***** also failed, but IIRC he was able to get a different Mexican slur.

The thing is, if a white guy was named Jose liberals would start screaming at him and accusing him of cultural appropriation.
