Overview
- One of the two RBB Brito Hotel employees fired over the viral clip posted an apology, saying she allowed behavior that should not have happened and that she did not react ethically or professionally.
- The incident stemmed from a live stream in Tarapoto where streamer Cristorata reached into a plate of fries being wheeled by hotel staff, with the video spreading widely on social media.
- The hotel issued a statement stressing ethical principles and internal management and later confirmed internal measures that resulted in the dismissal of two workers without naming them.
- Cristorata has said the bit was staged and that the food was tied to his girlfriend’s order, criticized the hotel for not contacting him before acting, and pledged to pay one month’s salary to each dismissed employee while helping them find new jobs.
- In a follow-up call, a dismissed worker said she earned the minimum wage of S/1,130, prompting the streamer to voice surprise and promise to seek better-paid opportunities for both.
