I'm in agreement with MitUSA. It's not just Wal*Mart

I was at O'Rilley's the other day and being the only non-Hispanic in the store made for a very frustrating experience. Behind the counter was 3 Hispanics and several Hispanics at the counter being waited on. I patiently stood there waiting to be waited on by the parts-man not helping anyone. He just ignored me and when some new customers walked in and to the counter, right past me, the parts-man waited on them.

I was like WTF? One of the other parts-man noticed what happened and looked at me saying be with you in a minute.

I've noticed this service, or lack of, seems to be happening more often all the time.

At first I thought to myself Well now I guess I know how it feels to be a minority, but then I thought No, I've never seen minorities treated that rudely before.
