This Is What White Privilege Looks Like

An angry restaurant customer went ballistic because they put green peppers in her order instead of red ones. She was further incensed that the employees, who were being polite, weren’t speaking English to her satisfaction.
“I’m really glad you can talk to each other in whatever language it is that you’re speaking, but it’s really rude,” the customer tells the two restaurant workers behind the counter in the video, presumably after she has complained about her order.
“If you want to be polite to the customer then you speak English to the customer in America,” says the woman, who apparently takes issue with the employees speaking in another language.
“My kids don’t eat green things, they eat red peppers,” the woman berates them, screaming and pointing.
An employee tries to placate her, and she yells, “You calm down!”
Green peppers usually go in the dish, the worker explains.
“Usually you make with green pepper,” the angry woman says, mocking the employee. “I ordered it with red pepper, what are you gonna do about it?”
The employee says they can remake the dish with red peppers in 15 minutes.
“15 minutes?” she yells, repeatedly slamming her Styrofoam takeout box on the counter. “I don’t have 15 minutes for you not to know English, not to get it right the first time. You get it right the first time, the customer is always right.”
She continues to berate them, saying “this is America,” and accuses them of “being rude, talking about whatever it is you’re talking about, in whatever language it is you’re speaking.”
She begins walking towards the door, repeatedly yelling, “You get it right the first time!” failing to see the glass door. She walks right into it, despite the bright yellow “Caution: watch your step” sign.
