Deaf Oklahoma woman suing Burger King fast food restaurant after she was refused service because she's Deaf.
OKLAHOMA CITY -- An Oklahoma woman says she was refused service at a metro Burger King because she’s Deaf. Rachel Hollis says she was stopping to get food after taking her two sons to hockey practice.
“I had my order ready, I had it typed on my phone. I do that often when I go through drive-thrus, it hasn’t ever been an issue," Hollis told News 4 through an interpreter. "I show him my order, and he gives me this face of frustration.”
Hollis says she started taking a video of the incident because she was feeling uneasy, then in the video you can see the employee hand her a note that says, “Can’t do a full order at the window. Too busy.”
Eventually, the employee comes back to the window and starts arguing with Hollis.
“You have to come inside. It’s too busy. Too busy ma’am, I can’t do a full order at the window I’m sorry," the employee says to Hollis. "It has nothing to do with your disability, I have a disability too."
After that, he slams the window shut. Hollis says one of the worst parts about the whole experience was that it happened with her kids in the car.
"I could tell they knew something was going on, I was just trying to keep them calm," Hollis said. "I said I’ll explain it to you when we get home. But they knew something was going on.”
Hollis says she tries to stay calm in that moment, but she’s tired of people being treated that way.
“When I got home, that was when I really broke down. I was very upset, I was crying, I was very tired. I’m tired of discrimination,” Hollis told News 4 through an interpreter. “I’ve never experienced anything like that, for someone to call the police. That’s crazy, it just doesn’t seem right.”
There`s a big update in the case of a Deaf woman who says she was denied service at a metro Burger King: Rachel Hollis has hired a legal team to represent her, claiming the restaurant is violating the Americans with Disabilities Act.
News 4 reached out to the Burger King corporate office about the situation, in a statement Burger King said:
All guests should be treated with respect and provided with a high level of service at our restaurants. The restaurant owner has reached out to the guest and her family to apologize, the employee was terminated and all employees at the location will undergo additional sensitivity training to ensure our customers always feel welcomed.
Ohio Man claims he was refused drive-thru service because he's Deaf.
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A man who went to the drive-thru at Burger King on Sawmill Road last Friday said he was refused service because he's Deaf.
Chris Driscoll said he recorded the whole incident on cell phone video to educate people about what the Deaf community often deals with.
To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.
Driscoll said it started when he was at the food menu. He usually writes down what he wants on a piece of paper and drives to the first window with his order.
"When I was reading the menu, I kept hearing something coming from this box and it seemed he might be getting mad, " said Driscoll.
In the video, the worker can be seen and heard saying "We didn't know you [were] deaf. We didn't know you couldn't hear. So, we have another order at the window. At the window, we have a order", but Driscoll said he couldn't understand what the man was saying.
Driscoll said he tried to give the worker a piece of paper that had his order written on it, but said he became frustrating when the worker tried to continue talking to him, because he couldn't understand him.
In another, cellphone video that Driscoll captured, the worker explains how he could read sign language and claimed Driscoll told him that he didn't care.
"He was concerned about the people behind me. There was only one car behind me, only one car and I said you don't care about me, so I don't care about them. I'm here to get food and he just refused to give me service, " said Driscoll.
Driscoll said he drove off after he was denied service and went next door to another fast food drive-thru, where he said he was able to order with no issues.
An employee at Burger King said the worker who seen in the video no longer works for Burger King, but they wouldn't say why.
Driscoll filed a formal complaint and said he got a response from Burger King. He said he was offered a free meal and got an apology.
Driscoll said fast food drive-thru restaurants should have options for the Deaf community when it comes to order.
"Perhaps they need to setup some sort of kiosk thing where they can order for themselves or use a pen and paper to better communicate with us," said Driscoll.
#WhopperSign - Burger King's finally speaks, by signing, for American Sign Language Day near Gallaudet University campus.
WASHINGTON DC -- Burger King asks fans to come up with a Whopper sign by Tim Nudd. The days when he would pop up, unannounced, in your bed in the morning, Burger King's King character has never actually spoken a single word, preferring to let his creepily silent visage speak for him. But now, to celebrate National American Sign Language Day, the King is speaking up by signing.
And he's asking BK fans to come up with an official sign for the Whopper sandwich. #WhopperSign.
"The Burger King brand is built not only on including everyone, but celebrating everyone," Fernando Machado, the fast-food chain's svp of global brand management, said in a statement. "National ASL Day felt like a perfect opportunity for the King to extend our brand mantra and engage with the ASL community on such a great day."
It also has the King interpreting a recent TV spot in ASL, as you can see below.
BK has also created an ASL version of its logo, and is making a scholarship donation benefiting students who are dedicating their studies to ASL language and interpretations.
