I then had barely any customers and they all complained about the food, which is the line cook's fault for not doing their job correctly. COVID killed my business, but thankfully I was able to recoup some of the losses with a PPP grant before selling the building. People who complain about business owners don't realize how…

I am currently looking for a job and I think I have a good grasp on what red flags people should look for. However, I think there are some that people overlook, or don't know about and this subreddit may be a good place to have a constructive list? Also so I feel less paranoid about if something is or isn't a red flag.
