Not shocked by this bullshit as I have not shopped at a CVS in about 2 years after an employee nearly knocked over a display as she was racing through the store to follow me while I was shopping. And then had the nerve to call a manager for ID verification when I was using my debit card. So when the manager asked…
Middle aged white ladies can get away with just about anything.
I figured that out one day when a sales person asked to hold my stuff. I noticed she didn't ask the white people and just the one American Indian to do that. I didn't go back to the store since.
Crimes in public are strictly a white privilege.
Or the old “why don’t I hold those for you” line. Not slick sales people, not slick at all.
The irony is that she'll most likely be killed by another white person. #whiteonwhitecrime
Right! Don't you love how you're asked: "Do you need help!" before you've even entered to peruse the merch? SMDH.
“tolerate any practices that discriminate against any of our customers or employees, and our market investigator training explicitly prohibits the profiling of customers.”
So gross. These attitudes are still so prevalent and it’s enraging. Just last night someone I’m just getting to know, social worker btw, just told me she couldn’t eat at a certain restaurant because it’s “in the ghetto”, she “see police cars in that area all the time” and finally she “do[esn’t] want to get shot.” It’s…
Not shocked by this. We are well aware that this is what employees at MOST chain stores are told to do.
This reminds me of the time I was trying on work pants at Sears and noticed that there was a sign saying “Shoplifters will be prosecuted,” in the dressing room. Below it was a second one in Spanish.
I agree. I actually was kind of like oh Jon Lovitz got a hot girlfriend good for him and then scrolled away. I wasn’t disgusted or shocked.
Yeah, it’s weird that we are fine making fun of this guy’s appearance. He looks like a lot of later middle aged men. Sure, maybe she’s after his money (though I’d expect there would be wealthier catches available if so), but maybe he makes her laugh harder than anyone else, or maybe they have amazing conversations, or…
Same deal over here. I find a lot of the ageism I see on Jezebel to be sad and actually unfair to older men who are not George Clooney.
My husband DOES NOT look like Lovitz, but he is significantly older than me and he’s fat. I don’t like thinking about people’s assumptions, because they’re preposterous and based in tired stereotypes that don’t have much to do with either of us, or why we love each other.
Some of Jezebel’s bloggers need to talk to some of Jezebel’s other bloggers about ageism and body-shaming, and why these things are bad for us.
Jon Lovitz sounds like an unpleasant man. But when I was in my early twenties I dated an overweight balding man who was in his late 40s. I really liked him and that can count for a lot.
Yeah, and I’m not cool with the fact that the breakup of two marraiges, a reality tv contest show, and very public new relationship, plus obnoxious social media bombardment probably helped this shit album up the charts. We’ve entered the age of publicity in every venue completely overpowering any aesthetic judgment.…
So, it’s happened, hasn’t it? Rock is dead. When I was in middle and high school there was still rock on Top 40, now it seems like a dance beat is a requirement. Am I wrong? Please someone tell me I’m wrong.
