So there

More than $16,000 has been raised for a Starbucks employee after a customer posted on Facebook that the barista refused to serve her at a San Diego location because she wasn’t wearing a mask.

The page was set up after a customer posted a picture of Gutierrez in his mask at a Starbucks complaining that she wasn't served when she came in without a mask, defying the county’s guidelines.

“Meet lenen from Starbucks who refused to serve me cause I’m not wearing a mask. Next time I will wait for cops and bring a medical exemption,” Amber Lynn Gilles wrote in a Facebook post that’s been shared 46,000 times.

A GoFundMe set up for the barista, identified as Lenin Gutierrez, raised nearly $17,000 as of Wednesday — just days after it was posted online.

“Raising money for Lenin for his honorable effort standing his ground when faced with a Karen in the wild,” the creator of the fundraiser, Matt Cowan, wrote in the description of the page.

Gutierrez posted a video on Facebook on Tuesday thanking his donors. He said that his dream is to become a dancer and that he will use the funds to pursue that goal.
