Did Chipotle Lie About Not Knowing About Masud Ali's Dine-and-Dash Boasting Before Firing Its Manager and Branding Her a Racist?

Chipotle has rehired the manager they fired and called a racist.

Chipotle is claiming they made the decision to fire in ignorance of the Masud Ali's tweets boasting about dining and dashing, and even knocking women over ("truck a bitch") if they attempted to block the door to prevent a dine-and-dash.

Matt Palumbo says they're lying -- that he had sent them this evidence before their decision to fire, and had gotten a response from Chipotle acknowledging the receipt of this evidence, and now they're claiming ignorance.

It seems that Masud Ali was setting up his own lawsuit trap against Chipotle.

Should the manager now sue Chipotle for wrongful termination as well as damage to her reputation due to the company branding her a racist?

Answer: Yes, of course she should. Not just to extract money from Chipotle, but to establish the precedent that Twitter Firings can sometimes cost you even more money than ignoring the mob.

Meanwhile, Chipotle hopes to woo back customers by offering Free E. Coli with every burrito, which, to be honest, is a semi-permanent lagniappe they've had on offer for the past three or four years.
