Ohio Realtor Fired for Racist Message Left on Restaurant Receipt
Stephanie Lovins lost her job at Century 21 after writing a hateful note targeting a waiter at a Mexican restaurant in Columbus, Ohio.
- Stephanie Lovins, a realtor in Ohio, wrote 'I hope Trump deports you' on a restaurant receipt instead of leaving a tip for waiter Ricardo, a U.S. citizen.
- The incident occurred on March 2 at Cazuelas Mexican Cantina, where Lovins became upset over a 'one coupon per table' policy.
- A fellow server shared a picture of the receipt on Facebook, prompting widespread outrage and support for Ricardo, who works seven days a week despite having a disability.
- Century 21, Lovins' employer, confirmed her termination, stating that 'hate has no place' within their brand after receiving numerous complaints.
- A GoFundMe campaign launched to support Ricardo has exceeded its goal, raising over $9,550 as his story gained national attention.
