Woman gets hurt feelings, free parking when valet ticket calls her fat

12/30/2012

When Sharyn Peoples retrieved her car from a valet in Boca Raton, Fla., she discovered someone had written on her ticket "play," "red dress" and "fat." True, she had just finished acting in a play, and she was wearing a red dress, but fat?! FAT?! Peoples said she immediately got in touch with the company responsible for hiring and firing the valet staff, who defended their workers as being kids usually 18 or 20 years old. "Sir, they're legally adults," Peoples answered. The company has given her a year of free parking and a gift card to a restaurant (more fat jokes?!) but cannot give her the vengeance she probably truly craves: for the anonymous employee who thinks she’s fat to be fired.
