My family has owned a cottage in Chatham, Cape Cod for over 10 years, and my recent experience at the corner store was absolutely unpleasant. As a person of color, I faced multiple uncomfortable interactions on two separate occasions, which was completely disappointing and unprofessional. The customer service was abysmal, and the burritos I purchased were both skimpy for an exorbitant price.

On my first visit, the cashier was incredibly rude, speaking to me in a demeaning and disrespectful manner that left me feeling humiliated. Adding to my experience, when Lisa prepared our burritos on our second visit, she intentionally removed bacon (that a male employee had initially) placed on them, leaving only skimpy pieces. Observing this was truly displeasing, especially considering that another customer in front of us (of a different race) was generously served a much larger portion by Lisa. Such treatment is unacceptable, and it's disheartening to witness such blatant inequality.

As a person of color, I had an unpleasant and upsetting time at this establishment. I hope they take immediate and serious steps to address these issues to create a welcoming and fair environment for ALL customers. Discrimination and poor treatment should never be tolerated; overall, improvements are needed to ensure a better experience for everyone who visits the CORNER STORE.
