Patuloy na pinag-uusapan sa social media ang rant post ng isang nagngangalang "Carlo Macuja Tandico" matapos daw na makaranas ng "body shaming" ang kaniyang girlfriend sa manager at human resources staff ng isang hotel sa Maynila.
Sa Facebook post ni Tandico, sinabi niyang naghanap ang kaniyang girlfriend ng hotel na puwede niyang pasukan bilang OJT o intern na required sa kurso nito.
Excited daw ang kaniyang jowa nang makatanggap ng text message mula sa nabanggit na hotel at pinapupunta ito para sa interview. Ngunit pagkatapos ng interview, umuwing luhaan ang kaniyang kasintahan.
"She then received a text message last Wednesday for an interview from Diamond Hotel. We have been delighted as finally, this will [make] her dream come true to finish her college. She went last Thursday and spoke with one of your Managers and she was called as 'Gasul' kasi daw, 'Maliit kana nga, mataba pa.' Manager added 'That's true!, Magreduce ka!'
Sadly, she didn't make it."
"I can see the frustration and disapointment on her face. How she was sad and demotivated that day. Worst? CRYING. We get the point, you have requirements, physically. But the way your managers act and speak? TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE and UNPROFESSIONAL!"
Kaya nagbigay ng payo ang netizen sa mga naghahanap ng OJT na iwasan ang nabanggit na hotel.
"To all students na magbabalak mag OJT sa hotel nato, please be aware on how they treat you. This shows how toxic yung environment nila with their staffs/future employees."
"To my girl and to all other girls out there, there's nothing wrong with you. You are beautiful. INDEED."
"To Diamond Hotel, Seeing reviews on your facebook page and online, I dont wonder why people don't want your service at all. WHAT A SHAME!"
"I'm calling you out Diamond Hotel! I don't want others to feel what my girlfriend had experienced. She [deserves] an apology. Hence, this shouldn't be normalized."
Matapos mag-viral, nakarating sa kaalaman ng hotel ang nabanggit na insidente kaya mababasa ang pagkomento nito sa post ni Tandico.
"We acknowledge your post and we are currently investigating the matter. We assure you that we take your posting/complaint seriously and we will take any and all appropriate actions as maybe warranted under the situation. We will apprise you of the results of the investigation."
Tugon naman dito ni Tandico, "Don from Recruitment team knew who's with him during the interview. A Bald, body shamer manager, his age is around 45-50's. You know what you did! cmon."
Sa isang Facebook post naman ay naglabas ng opisyal na pahayag ang pamunuan ng hotel.
"Diamond Hotel Philippines is aware of a recent Facebook post that brought attention to an alleged incident concerning an internship applicant. We want to assure everyone that the hotel does not tolerate such behavior and take these claims seriously. The hotel is currently investigating the matter to take appropriate actions," anila noong Pebrero 24.
Umani naman ito ng iba't ibang reaksiyon at komento mula sa netizens.
"TANGGALIN NYO HR AT MANAGER NYO!!!"
"As a former employee of an international brand hotel with an upper midscale rating, this has caught my attention. It's a shame that your business is under "hospitality," but you allow your colleagues to work with such unprofessional behavior?! You must take this seriously, or else it might affect the expectations of your business and future guests."
"Diamond Hotel Philippines anung assurance na bbgyan nyo ng DA yang unprofessional niyong mga tauhan are they perfect?"
"Diamond Hotel Philippines I hope that you'll impose sanctions on those who are liable to avoid this happening again."
"naku beh sa panahon ngayon ang dami ng manghuhusga akala mo napaka perfect! Di manlang matignan sarili hahays."
Samantala, wala pang update kung ano na ba ang nangyari sa sinasabing hotel manager at HR staff na nang-body shame sa estudyante.
