Waffle House Skills

Ahhhh, the U.S. of A. v.2022. :(

I laughed when one of the rat chicks fell from the counter.

Goodness. I wonder what precipitated this little fracas. Surely there would have been better ways to handle a disagreement over egg preparation or whatnot.

Ma’m , might I have real butter rather than margarine, over here, please?

The moment some puts a hand to you, a line has been crossed. Defend yourself regardless of who it is.

Some of those chicks easily have 100lbs on me. If one of those beasts came at me, I'm defending myself - and praying someone is filming so I don't get harrassed for "hitting a woman."

This not like the Waffle House depicted on Parts Unknown by Anthony Bourdain! There it was all about retro Southern charm, and oh how authentic such places are, and it's some of the most delicious down-home food you ever ate, etc. He didn't mention that you might get trampled in the running of the bulls.

Now are these the Hurricane Katrina refugees?

I miss all the damn fun!

What happened? WH run out of steak like that fight at Golden Corral?

That fat bitch falling off the counter! 🤣

Waffle House Wonder Woman is good but this lady is still the Champion

For a waffle?

A Waffle House employee in Texas who deftly caught a chair thrown at her by an unruly customer during a brawl last year is now giving her side what happened that night at the eatery.

The now-ex employee, identified in a YouTube video as 'Halie' told her followers that she is now blacklisted from the Waffle House chain for acting in self-defense during the fight by throwing a sugar shaker.

Video of the melee between multiple Waffle House customers and employees went viral last week showing the employee swatting away a metal chair that was thrown over the counter.

Halie was hailed online as a hero, but she revealed in the new video that when her boss saw the surveillance footage, she was written up for throwing a sugar shaker at one of the customers.

The employee left Waffle House, but when she tried to work for another one of the chain's restaurants, she found out she was blacklisted.

'I was blacklisted,' she said. 'I can't ever work for Waffle House again. I tried working for another sometime earlier this year, and they found out I was blacklisted.'

n the new 20-minute video posted last week, Halie explained how the events unfolded that night leading up to the brawl and her reasoning for throwing the sugar shaker.

'It's not a lot,' she said. 'They were being rude, belligerent. I finished what I started. That's really it.'

Halie explained that six customers came into the eatery on particularly busy night and tried to sit in a section that was closed off. The group continued to sit there and demanded service despite being told that the section was closed.

She went on to say that the women started 'hollering' for their orders to be taken, which resulted in Halie telling them that they could leave.

Halie, who has worked at Waffle House for four years, was considered to be at 'Rock Star' level which goes to the highest cook level achieved, which are cooks who also serve tables and run the store.

She said the group demanded that 'the white girl' cook their food as the they began to grow more rowdy.

Video that has since gone viral shows an all-out brawl between the customers and the employees when one of them stands on the counter and a staff member throws a coffee pot at them.

They attempt to climb over the counter again when Halie is seen hurling a sugar shaker at them, which shatters on the floor.

'That's how night shift works, and it's sad,' she said in the new video. 'It's not safe at night, so we have to do what we can.'

The women then jump over the counter and all-out fist fight began.

It ended when Halie flawlessly caught a chair that was thrown at her by another woman in the group.

This will teach Halie that an encounter with thugs will automatically lead to your being wrong and, in this case, fired. In that circumstance, she should have just walked out and let the thugs do whatever they wanted. Let this be a lesson to workers everywhere.
