A viral video has surfaced on social media and it is widely applauded for the karma these Engen workers handed down on a man who allegedly used the k-word.
Engen attendants attack man for alleged k-word usage
According to the Twitter user who posted the video, the man we see being attacked by four Engen petrol attendants allegedly used a racist slur.
This, however, could not be confirmed since the video starts right when the petrol attendants were seen clobbering the man as he tried to make an escape.
It’s not clear what the man’s condition is after that encounter but we can guess, with a great deal of confidence, that his leg — which got trampled on by the vehicle he was desperately trying to get into — may have needed medical attention.
Twitter users quickly flooded the mentions of this video, celebrating the bravery shown by the petrol attendants in dealing decisively with racism.
Why would it end up in job losses ? Why not assault charges against the petrol attendants ? No one heard or saw what really happened besides petrol attendants beating a man with a stick and a sjambok ..Think about it

And we should make a follow up just to check if they're still employed, no need for grievance against them, non whatsoever.

My experience too. Been filling my car for 45 years and never met one who was not polite and friendly.
