Walmart has apologized to a Muslim woman who said she was mocked by a Walmart employee as she paid for her items, says the Associated Press.
"Please don't stick me up," a cashier told the shopper on Feb. 2, according to the Nevada chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. Wal-Mart apologized in a letter signed by Rolando Rodriquez, a vice president and regional general manager.
"I can assure you that the associate in question was disciplined in accordance with our employment policies as a result of the situation," Rodriguez said without disclosing details.
The apology has apparently been accepted.
