This could be a major disaster.

I feel like review bombing isn’t the best way to handle this. Why not wait til OP’s friend tries another course of action? I mean, they haven’t asked for money yet (not that I expect it to be paid). Solid chance ownership wasn’t even aware the EC did this. Reviews can really fuck with a place - is it worth potentially ruining a local business over this?

Reply to comment by megalomike in Update: Baltimore receiving 675k gallons of wastewater from Ohio train derailment by Animanialmanac
Yeah this is the part I keep coming back to - nobody asked where the waste water came from until it was a political issue.
Either the plant doesn’t work and we shouldn’t put anything in it, be it from Ohio or Baltimore or Mars, or the plant does work and we don’t need to worry about where the waste was collected.
I’m also enjoying how everyone is suddenly a waste water treatment expert.

Lol. What point do you think I’m missing…? Executive Chefs are certainly able to hire, and that is who offered him the job and whom he sat down with to discuss salary.

ok you missed the entire point.
was dude actually in a position to offer your friend this job?
ok sure, he may work at that restaurant, but he could have just been a random cook out lower level manager that had no ability for hiring.

If you hit the top of the stairs she set up at that 1st spot to the left. We were in the back behind the bar and didn't have any issues.
It was a massive change from the 1st week.

It looks like there are one or two on Saturday and Sundays! (Only the ones marked “T” are trivia)

Yeah it’s the location stuff that’s scary to me too. What if mine is built and I’m the only one on the block!

Wow that’s interesting to know how they play with taxes. I feel my taxes are pretty high right now. What’s a good tax amount?

He told me that he met with the EC the day after the stage, and they agreed on his rate and an official start date of last week Tuesday. My friend felt certain that everything was set and ready to go.

Reply to Non delivery app delivery by azayas77
Himalayan House in Locust Point has their own delivery driver. They deliver within a 3 mile radius. We order from their website all the time. It usually takes about an hour for food.

I’d like to think that an offer of a position, once accepted, means that he should receive unemployment insurance now.

Oh wow good to hear. Will give it another chance then, did they still have the table in that back corner so the side behind the wall is muffled? (Don’t mind, will just plan to get there earlier)
Nah, we just played halftime and closed out.

I’m hoping so. Life has been hard on him these last few years. It was the look of disappointment and defeat in his eyes when he told me that led me to post. I am former restaurant industry and am friends with many still in, including some owners. But this really rubs me the wrong way. I might be more outraged than he is, which might be due to our age difference.

Yeah. I’m shocked at a 9-hr stage that would not at least pay minimum wage or $100 just to be decent.

Sure The Department of Labor could answer that question. I am pretty sure free labor is never a thing.

I do not trust these so called leaders to handle this situation. Didn’t Back River have issues recently?
