Why the sigh?

My guess is reminiscing on the good food she ate when she went.

I really want to try this place. When are they doing that 19.99 smoked prime rib thing again? Me want.

Why the sigh?

I no longer work there. I poured EVERYTHING I had into that place. My own time, money, etc. I gave them equipment, bought them equipment, worked on my days off without pay etc..They paid me for one week (check bounced...cost me 12 dollars) didn't pay me for the next two weeks.

I walked out during my shift (making sure they would be o.k. first). I said "when you can cut me a check that won't bounce (Christmas coming and all) then I'll be back.

They fired me immediately.

One owner (Justin) is fully invested in the company. GREAT GUY. The other owner is a dip-**** named Wes who is sleeping with the cashier. Not a good business partner who unfortunately Justin is stuck with.

Point being, my check bounced but the lazy ass bitch who works the register is driving a new Avalanche.....courtesy of Wes...the half-owner.

I feel so bad for Justin. It was his dream and recipes all along.

Sorry to hear it Bro.

Sounds like they are both idiots in the long run. I'm betting Justins bills are payed right? Im also assuming he had to concur with the firing? How the frick do they have any staff whatsoever?

Sorry to hear it. Unfortunate that a business that actually produces good food is run by such fools, really shows that a good restaurant needs such a specific set of skills to succeed.

Sorry to hear that, Brian. If I had known that, I wouldn't have stopped in.

Won't be back.

I am SO sorry things went south for you. I was looking forward to popping in, when I had the chance, to say Hi and meet you. Rats.

Here's hoping something BETTER comes along for you. (If something does keep us posted and I'll do a better job of getting my sorry butt in gear.)
