Subway fires employee after customer threatens boycott

If the local subways here would be so kind as to staff up with gay porn stars I can assure you they'd be busier than they are now. It would give them an edge on the Jimmy Johns that have been encroaching on them.

I agree. Please let me know if that ever happens.

In other news, what airline is best for travel to your area? 😱

HA!

Honestly, what's it matter though. It's not like they don't wash their hands. Don't you think the guys working there haven touched their own meat? They still make sandwiches. Why does it matter if they are meat or fish lovers?

"A customer said they wouldn't even eat there at Subway anymore because of my past work and said that if I wasn't fired then they would boycott the store.

...

"If a girl did what we do it would probably be ok.. and if a guy does straight porn.. he is bragged about. When I do gay porn, I feel a bit lynched for the rest of my life."

Wonder if there'll be a lawsuit over this.


Also wonder how the customer recognized him.

i hope he sues them, pretty sure he has a decent case
 
10 bucks subway is going to sponsor the next queer event as a PR move to cover this up.

the marketing writes itself.

:laugh:MAO!!!

BTW-I'm wondering how the OP found this news story. 😛
 
The only reason I go to Subway is because they staff them with gay pornstars. Say what you will, you have to admit, no one can pack as much meat in those buns as them.

Have you tried Subway's fresh baked brownies? Soooo packed with fudge.





Sorry for piggybacking. Your post that is.
 
how would you know he was a gay porn star unless you watched gay porn?

and then get offended by it?

i bet this is one of those christians who are gay but are still in denial about it and so they vote republican and get offended by gay porn stars working in subway shops because it reminds them of their sinfulness

was this the guy?
 
A lawsuit wont work. There is no proof that they fired him for being gay, just that he starred in porn. Most places have standards clauses in your employment contract.

Im sure most of us dont think theyd fire a hot 18 year old blonde chick if they found out she was in porn, but we cant really prove it.

Nope. Once you star in a porn, your reasonable expectation of privacy is gone. If it was a leaked video that was private of him and his boyfriend, then there is a case.

People get fired all the time for crap that gets out on the internet about them.
 
At the same time,, one could argue a gay porn star did not help to hold up the standard of a family friendly restaurant. I could be wrong... you tell me. But if I owned a family frequented restaurant, I don't think I would want an adult film star (former or current) of any orientation working in my establishment.

What does that have to do with how it is found out? Yes the guy in the store that knew should be pointed and laughed at, but once its out, it doesnt matter how for the employer.
 
-It's one thing to be gay, quite another to be a gay porn star. Would you hire somebody if he/she listed porn star on his/her resume? I would not.

I think the outcome of this fiasco depends a lot on how truthfully he filled out his job application. 3 years experience in the buns and meats industry could be a little misleading you know.
