As a former store manager in Grinnell, Iowa, I need to rebut the terrible lies that "Robert" told in his complaint aginst Casey's. # 1) It is true that Casey's policy is to avoid the overused and insincere phrase, "Thank You". We are instructed to use the fresh and unique phrase "Have A Nice Day' instead. You should have known that if you were awake during your 18 week clerk recruit training boot camp. #2) You claim the manager told you that Casey's doesn't hire "N-word". That is a down right LIE. Once again I refer you to the Casey's Operations Specifications Manual section 23.33(a)4.b on page 243 which is called "The Brown Paper Bag Rule", "Anytime a person enters a Casey's General Store who possesses a skin color darker than that of a brown paper bag, the clerk is to inform said person that a highly trained police attack dog is present in the beer cooler and a digital recording is being transmitted to the FBI/ICE headquarters in Washington DC. The clerk is also required to say 'Have A Nice Day' before discharging a tear gas cannister in the direction said person." #3) Invitation to join the KKK. I will refer you again to the Casey's Employee Benefits sheet. A complimentary membership in the KKK is provided, however, the KKK being referenced by your manager is for the "Kids, K-mart and Kool-aid" club which gives employee's Kids a 10% discount card for Kmart and free Kool-aid. #4) Mice Poop in coffee filters. That was not mice poop but Casey's own secret coffee enhancer called "Flavor Pellets" which boost the caffine level for our trucker customers who need that 'extra boost' and can't afford to buy meth in this economy. #5) Bribing state health inspectors with $100s (Mr Franklin) and $50s (Mr Grant). That is a flat out lie! The Iowa inspectors are more than happy to take the word of Mr. Washington and Mr. Lincoln when it comes to health and sanitary issues. I could go on, but there is no need to. Enjoy your life in Missouri "Robert"

You heard money being pulled from his pocket? You were shocked at bigotry? At health inspectors taking bribes? And the part about tearing down the store when it gets dirty and building a new one on the other side of town is priceless! Where have you been living? You need therapy for this! You need therapy alright, but not for this.

What the owner is doing is illegal and discrimination. Your african american friend can sue him for this. He can complain to the labor board that the owner of this store is refusing to hire him because of his race. I would also tell people not to shop there as well. I would not give that man my business as well either who wants to shop in a dirty store filled with mice , rats and roaches. I would not even blame you for boycotting the store either

I write a letter to the editor of the News paper in that area or the opinion column telling folks not to shop there and why. Also about that so called owner not paying you over time turn him in to the labor board what they will do is investigate this and they will get your money and fine this owner up to $10,000 or higher . I would not work for a biggot like him at all. In fact that N word has nothing to do with skin color I looked up the word and this creep can be one also . The definition to the N word is an ignorant person your african american friend will tell you that as well.
