Title: I am really doing this for you
Post by: angiejuly on May 15, 2013, 02:34:12 AM
I started a npetition for Denny's from an experience of being outed. I am sure many know this. If this is not ok you can remove it but I am trying to be appropriate. This is one thing of many I am working on but this petition is primarally for training and awareness to the CEO. Many have written them and thanks so much for that. If you choose to write personal to support us let them know you are writing in support of Anela in Hawaii. Here is the petition and another one is on there if you would like to see. It is for Government. Love you sooo much, Anela

Anela -

If you want to make an impact with your petition, it is best if you draft it in a manner that shows you are literate.

You wrote:

In "Equality", it is a fact all things cannot be segregated.If being disrespected from server to Aria Manager ( whom I never directed myself to) to corporate and am being ignored from several letters, perhaps if this is happening to one it is happening to many who desurve "equal" respect. It is not hard, I simply wanted my experience brought to the attention of the CEO. I feel the CEO will have care for credability and will want equal respect coming from the employees as well. I feel my complaint and suggestion is being buried by corporate employees. Denny's has many restraunts Acros the land and I feel we should bond together with this simple suggestion to the CEO to help stop negativity and segregation and help us become a less segregated, judgmental world together.

I suggest:

"Equality" means that your corporation must not discriminate against, or segregate, it's customers based on race, ethnicity, sex, or gender identity.  If I was disrespected in one of your restaurants (in [cityname], Hawaii), by all of your employees, from the server to the Area Manager, and had my letters ignored, then I wonder how many other customers are being similarly mistreated.

Respect and courtesy are not difficult concepts for employees to grasp.  The purpose of this petition is to bring to the attention of the CEO and Board of Directors of Denny's, the failure of the corporation to deal with legitimate complaints by customers concerning discrimination from Denny's employees.  Denny's has many restaurants across the nation, and I would hope that my abysmal treatment is not the norm.

I suggest that Denny's institute training for their employees, supervisors, manager, and officers, on how to treat those customers who have special needs, or who have "protected" status according to anti-discrimination laws.  We should be able to bond together with the simple goal of treating our fellow beings with respect and courtesy.

"Train, Equal-respect awareness and, properly respond to complaints!
Sincerely,
[Your name]"

This is kind of a grammatical mess as well. It should definitely be multiple sentences since it's multiple demands  Maybe:

All employees working for Denny's must treat their customers with respect and equality. Due to the current complaint system in place we feel we are being ignored.

I don't know though someone better than me should take a crack at this.
