Texas Waffle House worker who caught chair thrown by unruly customer claims she was BLACKLISTED

A Waffle House employee in Texas who deftly caught a chair thrown at her by an unruly customer during a brawl last year is now giving her side what happened that night at the eatery. 

The now-ex employee, identified in a YouTube video as 'Halie' told her followers that she is now blacklisted from the Waffle House chain for acting in self-defense during the fight by throwing a sugar shaker. 

Video of the melee between multiple Waffle House customers and employees went viral last week showing the employee swatting away a metal chair that was thrown over the counter. 

Halie was hailed online as a hero, but she revealed in the new video that when her boss saw the surveillance footage, she was written up for throwing a sugar shaker at one of the customers.

The employee left Waffle House, but when she tried to work for another one of the chain's restaurants, she found out she was blacklisted. 

'I was blacklisted,' she said. 'I can't ever work for Waffle House again. I tried working for another sometime earlier this year, and they found out I was blacklisted.' 

In the new 20-minute video posted last week, Halie explained how the events unfolded that night leading up to the brawl and her reasoning for throwing the sugar shaker. 

'It's not a lot,' she said. 'They were being rude, belligerent. I finished what I started. That's really it.'

DailyMail.com has reached out to Waffle House for comment.  

Halie explained that six customers came into the eatery on particularly busy night and tried to sit in a section that was closed off. The group continued to sit there and demanded service despite being told that the section was closed. 

She went on to say that the women started 'hollering' for their orders to be taken, which resulted in Halie telling them that they could leave. 

Halie, who has worked at Waffle House for four years, was considered to be at 'Rock Star' level which goes to the highest cook level achieved, which are cooks who also serve tables and run the store. 

She said the group demanded that 'the white girl' cook their food as the they began to grow more rowdy. 

Video that has since gone viral shows an all-out brawl between the customers and the employees when one of them stands on the counter and a staff member throws a coffee pot at them.

In the Waffle House video, one of the women picked up a metal chair and threw it over the counter at the employee, who had thrown a sugar shaker at them during the fight

'That's how night shift works, and it's sad,' she said in the new video. 'It's not safe at night, so we have to do what we can.' 

The women then jump over the counter and all-out fist fight began. 

It ended when Halie flawlessly caught a chair that was thrown at her by another woman in the group.  

'I had caught it…and it bounced off my wrist,' she said.

After the woman tumbled over the counter, a massive fist-fight between employees and customers ensued — prompting some customers to rush out the restaurant

Soon a third woman got involved, who was seen pulling on the employee's hair

Other employees and friends tried to break up the professional wrestling-style fight 

Halie left her job at the Waffle House two months after the incident, but said when she tried to get a job at another one, she was denied and claims she was blacklisted despite the original store telling her she could come back any time.

The Waffle House video, which recently resurfaced online after being filmed in an Austin store last year, also showed two woman yelling at the employee while one of them stood on the counter, which prompted  the worker to throw a coffee pot at them. 

The viral video starts with a group of patrons sitting at a table and yelling at an employee, as the man filming exclaims: 'Bro, what the f*** is going on? Bro, I just want my waffles.'

At some point in the argument, a woman wearing a crop top and white yoga pants could be seen on top of the counter as one of her friends snuck behind it.

After the woman got off, a small, blonde employee threw a coffee pot at her.

Looking familiar? Lynda Carter thought so! The actress, who played Wonder Woman in 1975, joked she 'trained at Waffle House' for the role after a video went viral of an employee deflecting a metal chair like a superhero 

She posted the comparison on Twitter, to the delight of her fans, who claimed it was the 'tweet of the year' 

That is when the woman's friend, in a t-shirt, black leggings and yellow sneakers, climbs onto one of the stools at the counter and starts grabbing everything she can to hurl at the female employee.

But the friend, who had since decided to climb on top of the counter herself, then fell behind the counter — at which point the female employee grabs her and starts pummeling her before the girl's friends and other employees try to intervene and separate the two women. 

The fistfight sends other patrons running outside the restaurant out of apparent fear for their own safety, though they continue to watch the fight escalate from the windows outside.

Many hailed the woman an 'Avenger' after she swiftly deflected the chair with her arm, never once breaking the scowl on her face 

There, they see that a third female customer has grabbed the employee by her hair as one of her friends continues to yell at the staff.

Soon, another female employee decides to get involved and hits the women herself, even though her male colleague is desperately tries to break the fight apart.

After a few moments, the man finally succeeds and the two women slink away, but not before the woman in a t-shirt grabs a bottle and threatens to throw it at the employees.

Instead, though, she and her friend walk away and grab some chairs, hurling it at the employees.

The female worker seems to tempt the raucous customers, waving her hands in a 'Bring it' fashion before the woman in the t-shirt hurls a chair at her.

Former Wonder Woman actress Lynda Carter joked on social media last week that she trained at Waffle House for her heroic role after the video went viral.  

Carter, 71, played the iconic role in 1975 and compared her scene in the movie where she blocks a chair and breaks it against an attacker to the a video of a Waffle House employee deflecting a chair thrown at them. 

'I trained at Waffle House,' Carter joked to the delight of her fans. 

Similarly, in the video, a stone-faced Halie didn't miss a beat after an angry customer launched a metal chair across the counter at her. 

As the chair spun in the air, the employee simply put her arm out, one-handedly deflecting the furniture away from her face and onto the floor, never once breaking the scowl on her face. 

Carter's jest riled up the internet fans and even caught the attention of DC Comics, which jokingly tweeted: 'Canon.' Canon is used to described a plotline that actually took place in the storyline. 

Others were delighted by the thought of Wonder Woman in a Waffle House with, Twitter user Ian Boothby writing: 'I could go for a Wonder Waffle.'
