Woman of Ill Repute

So I saw this story earlier this week, and didn’t see much of a need to talk about it. This latest bit of details tho, makes it more of a story:

A New Jersey waitress who received thousands of dollars in gratuities after claiming she received a homophobic note in lieu of a tip has been let go by the restaurant at which she worked.

Dayna Morales, a 22-year-old former Marine, claimed last month that a family of four who racked up a $93.55 bill at the Gallop Asian Bistro in Branchburg, N.J., left her no tip, only a note saying they couldn’t leave any extra cash for her service because they “do not agree with your lifestyle.”

Morales quickly emailed the story to a gay advocacy website and later posted a photograph of the purported check on her Facebook page. The alleged incident made national headlines and resulted in thousands of dollars being donated to Morales, who said she would send all proceeds to the Wounded Warrior Project.

So a phenotypical lesbian serves a family, and allegedly gets no tip, and a hand-written note that it wasn’t for her skills as a server, but because they don’t agree with the homosexual lifestyle.

The story goes viral, and money collection services are set up, and donations roll in. Only the family figures out it was them, and they supply the media with their copy of the receipt, and their credit card bill.

Now at this point its a he-said-she-said story, and it very well could be THIS family of four might be a different one. Too many things line up, but I didn’t feel the need to talk about it. Only more lines up:

The restaurant announced on its Facebook page Saturday that it had conducted its own internal investigation, and although it was “inconclusive,” the eatery said it had come to a mutual agreement with Morales that she no longer work there.

This of course is a code word for “We have enough dirt to fire you, but we’d rather not go through the paperwork, and you’d rather collect unemployment, so sign here…”, it continues:

The decision comes after NBCNewYork.com reported Friday that three people who sent money to a PayPal account set up in her name say their donations were refunded.

At least one man who sent cash to Morales at the restaurant told NBCNewYork.com he has not gotten the money back. Morales did not respond to requests for comment from the station.

Meanwhile, a representative of the Florida-based Wounded Warrior Project could not confirm Morales had made any donations as of Wednesday, Bridgewater Patch reported.

A representative for the nonprofit group that caters to veterans returning from overseas checked for donations by Morales’ name and within the ZIP codes for Bridgewater, N.J., where she worked, and Bedminster, where Morales said she lives, and was unable to locate any correlating donations. The donations may have been made from a different ZIP code or by a third-party, the representative told the website.

MAYBE she donated the money, maybe she stuffed it in her pocket. Maybe the person talking to NBC is lying about getting his money back or the check is in the mail.

It goes on!

NBC News has also reported that a Pentagon source said Morales was dismissed from the Marine Reserve Corps in May because she was not attending drills and that she was discharged under “less than honorable” conditions.

Man, that’s a LOT of strikes to have in her court, it really looks like she’s a horrible liar who has essentially defrauded a bunch of people.

Classy!

    I read somewhere that people who know her say she is a chronic liar. My question was “How would they know what her life style is?”

      Well she has short hair, piercings, a heavy build, and I assume dressed in masculine clothing. Hence my line about a “phenotypical lesbian”, but to be said, just like an effeminate man is not always gay, a butch lady isn’t always a lesbian.

      Pretty hard to believe that even the most despicable anti-gay crusader would have the stones to make a move like that.
