This Chipotle manager did just that and was soon fired. Chipotle's policy is to make the food first and then ask for payment and if the customer cannot pay, then the food would of course be withheld.
The man who was denied service, of course, videotaped the encounter with his phone, posted it online on Twitter, claimed racism, tagged Chipotle in the post so that they would see it and the video went viral. Millions saw the video. People commenting on the video of course were outraged and said that the store manager was in the wrong, a racist, & worse.
Then Chipotle was tipped off that the person who had posted the video had previously bragged on Twitter about dining and dashing, where he would order food and then run off without paying for it. The manager was offered her job back after corporate investigated and learned that the man who originally claimed being racially profiled had dined and dashed many times in the past.
It's crazy because this restaurant is near where I live and it was all over the news and that poor store manager was falsely labeled as a racist.
