Pat S Liquor - Liquor Store in Pasadena

Ada

The owner is rude every single time I have came in her store! It's the neighborhood "convenience" store. So it like a mom and pop store. One day after work I went in the store to buy a bottle a wine because it's literally on my way home! I do this at least once a week. I ignore the owners rudeness because it was just easy for me to go here on my way home. I also ignore it because I thought it was a culture miss understanding because she is asian(korean I'm assuming not sure) and very slight language barrier. I thought if I ignore her rude behavior she would get use to me and treat me nice as a "regular". On this day she proved me wrong! I bring the bottle of wine to the counter and she rings it up. I said on and she asks me for my id(she never asks me for my id by the way) However I have no problem in showing her my DL because it's her job to ask. I show her my id! As I pull out my money I put the bottle a wine in my purse! (As I do every time) to my total suprise this lady accused me of stealing the wine! Mind you I have my money out to put for the wine! She said "most people pay for the wine before they put in their purse" I told her most people that steal don't bring it to the counter for you to ring it up! Mind you as I said before this is my once a week routine! So I told her I no longer want the wine and that she was being rude and rascist and I gave her a list of time that she has followed me around the store has disrespect me too many time! She begins to act as she knows nothing about what I'm accusing her of! she beginning to panic as if I'm attacking her! All the while her husband walks away and want nothing to do with it! Even her daughter(don't know if the young lady was her daughter in assume sit there in silence! I informed her I would never come to her store again since she think at ok to harass her black customers! Stop accepting black people money if the color of my skin offends you so bad! I know it's a color thing because my roommate has never had a issue going in this store but every time I go I'm being harassed!
