My boss decided to run the FOH pay as daily cash advances and kept telling every one who told him that wasn't right, he would double down and say yes it is, or well that's how the accountant set it up, or my favorite “Well thats how it was when I was at Chilis”.
That was until I convinced some of the FOH to get a labor lawyer involved, oh boy and did they jump at the case. The new song and dance is “oh well, we found a problem and are trying to fix it”
I walked out today after I watched him berate one of the servers about how he was right, and that “tips are owned by the restaurant, in Arkansas” (I called him out and said that is incorrect) and he doesn't have to give them out, and how if she “made over her wage was the only time they took out taxes” (also called him out on this), and how they would figure out how much back pay everyone “deserved”. She ended up in tears and I walked her out, and this man decided to follow us out and try shouting his justifications and excuses at her.
Fuck him, fuck that job, I was already on my last 2 days and I wont be party to that shit.
