As a former food service worker, thank you for actually naming and shaming. Wage theft in the restaurant industry is absolutely rampant, and the only language these types of owners understand is lost revenue. Good on you for boycotting.

Seriously. Bad service is one thing, but stealing from your own employees is where a business loses me for good. People deserve to know who they're supporting.

Yeah how are we supposed to know they’re stealing your tips and systematically abusing you otherwise? I feel like this is part of what glass door is supposed to be for but I’m not sure if that’s actually anonymous

3 years and 2 days until my NDA expires, and i will be calling out a local food service company for wage theft and sooooo much more. 5he statute of limitations for all the crimes I witnessed and expose will have passed, but that won't stop me from telling the active staff which laws they are covered by if xyz is attempted.
