Obama story

by Mark2008SF

I saw a picture in the window of Mrs. Dewson with Obama, so I asked about it, and she looks at me all rude, and says “I don’t wanna talk about Obama.”

She claims she’s known Obama for “over 30 years”. Oh? You knew him back when he was in high school in Hawaii? Your story’s not checking out there, but nice try, biotch.

Mrs. Dewson is no lady!

by aml2bibh

My husband is the superintendent building a store next to Mrs. Dewson's hat shop in S.F. on Fillmore street. He has never spoken to Mrs. Dewson. She has never spoken to him. He has many different people working for him on this job site. All of them are union subcontractors & employees.

One laborer in particular has truly impressed my husband. He is a hard worker & has told my husband his life story. My husband really likes the man. My husband is Caucasian & this employee happens to be African-American.

Today, the day after Obama was elected President, Mrs. Dewson had some colorful language for my husband & this man. My husband was standing in front of the construction/store site instructing his employee on what he would like for him to do. (My husband is never rude to his employees & treats everyone fairly. In fact, one day this particular laborer told my husband that it was a pleasure to work for him. Sadly another day my husband came home flabber gasted because this same hard working nice man started yelling at him. My husband asked him to leave. The man came back the next day asking my husband for his job back. He apologized & said that he had to "go get right with Jesus". My husband took this man back on the job.) Mrs. Dewson approached the two of them as she opened her store for business this a.m. She said (directed to the black man), "You don't have to work for this M***er F**ker anymore!" She continued to rant & rave about how things are going to change with a black president.

My husband was horrified. He could not believe what he heard. I am so angry with this woman. Who does she think she is? She is no lady & certainly not a Christian! Would she think it acceptable for me or my husband to curse at her? Would she sell us a hat even though we are white? She is a horrible person & completely misguided if she thinks that racism is acceptable.

Please do not shop Mrs. Dewson's Hats! She is confrontational & hostile.

• Pros: Mrs. Dewson is very nice to African-Americans
• Cons: Mrs. Dewson is prejudiced against all other races.

Extremely unpleasant!

by koji602

Mrs. Dewson is rude and unpleasant. Upon entering the store she does not welcome or provide any useful assistance. In addition to the rude service she does not welcome potential customers to try on hats. In my opinion I would not purchase anything from this store solely based on the horrible service. I'm amazed she is even able to stay in business.
