Positive Rep for an email address!!!

[Hootie]

I want the email address for the CEO of an accounting firm named BDO...

http://www.bdo.com/

Or an email address where I can be heard...not just that shitty contact form.

I need my voice to be heard.

POSITIVE REP for good detective work.

You're basically saying that the food means nothing (like Metro).

It means something when you pay your bill, not when you leave a tip.

I know. I said as much in my previous posts.

Question:

It is virtually guaranteed that someone from this company is going to contact the chain - either the local manager, or corporate. Did this idiot sign his name to any of these emails?

Will he come back here and tell us after he is terminated?

[Mr. Flopnuts]

You guys can talk about how to run a business, and that's fine. But when you pay your employees half the minimum wage and this shit happens, don't be surprised when they react this way. I mean, after all, tips is THEIR business. And since they're not paid a living wage to do the job they do, this is the risk a business owner runs for paying them so shitty. Fire him. But don't be surprised when the next one does it too. This is definitely a 2 way street.

Not to mention it was definitely a dick move by the company to cheap out and invade a small restaurant for an entire evening while they turned away other customers instead of renting a party room somewhere for their event.

Oh. If you had said as much then shut the **** up I probably wouldn't have pointed out that it's none of your ****ing business.

When you accept this job you know that once in a while you are going to get stiffed. That is the nature of the work. That does not give you cause to go off acting as an agent of my business when you are not, trying to collect a debt that is not owed and costing me money. There is no calculus by which his actions make any sense at all.

His share of the gratutiy on $475 was only going to be, what, $20? He wrecked a business account over $20.

I'd fire him twice if I could.

Ms. Polon,

This is to voice my dissatisfaction with BDO's fusillades. First things first: Purists may object to my failure to present specific examples of BDO's lecherous op-ed pieces. Fortunately, I do have an explanation for this omission. The explanation demands an understanding of how when BDO tells us that denominationalism is the key to world peace, it somehow fails to mention that its iconoclastic pronouncements are an evil without remedy. It fails to mention that its proxies can read some crock of phlegmatic, mendacious drivel it once wrote and believe that they've read something really profound. And it fails to mention that its hastily mounted campaigns are one part pauperism, two parts teetotalism. For proof of this fact I must point out that from the perspective of those inside its camp, science is merely a tool invented by the current elite to maintain power. The reality, however, is that BDO's circulars represent a backward step of hundreds of years, a backward step into a chasm with no bottom save the endless darkness of death.

One could truthfully say that I pray for the day when those who plunge the whole of Christendom into wars and chaos will see what they're doing to the world and to all of its citizens. But saying that would miss the real point, which is that the biggest supporters of its perverted, devious jeremiads are lewd usurers and clumsy twits. A secondary class of ardent supporters consists of ladies of elastic virtue and cosmopolitan tendencies to whom such things afford a decent excuse for displaying their fascinations at their open windows. BDO's lies come in many forms. Some of its lies are in the form of ideologies. Others are in the form of perversions. Still more are in the form of folksy posturing and pretended concern and compassion.

For all of the foregoing reasons, I can confidently claim that BDO decries or dismisses capitalism, technology, industrialization, and systems of government borne of Enlightenment ideas about the dignity and freedom of human beings. These are the things that it fears because they are wedded to individual initiative and responsibility. Given that BDO carries nothing but hatred and destruction in its heart, it stands to reason that we must transcend local prejudices. This call to action begins with you. You must be the first to follow through on the critical work that has already begun. You must be the one to lay the groundwork for an upcoming attempt to institute change. And you must inform your fellow man that if the past is any indication of the future, BDO will once again attempt to pigeonhole people into predetermined categories.

BDO's uncompanionable hypnopompic insights serve only to illuminate its lack of good taste and decency. It is no more complicated than that. I heard through the grapevine that nugatory, merciless despotism has long been the nucleus of BDO's suggestions. Whether or not this rumor is true, I've heard it say that our unalienable rights are merely privileges that it can dole out or retract. Was that just a slip of the lip, or is BDO secretly trying to sensationalize all of the issues? The answer is quite simple. I already listed several possibilities, but because BDO lacks the ability to remember beyond the last two seconds of its existence I will restate what I said before for its sake: Not only does it turn me, a typically mild-mannered person, into a squalid vat of academicism, but it then commands its subalterns, "Go, and do thou likewise."

BDO has become so incorrigible, so moved beyond the realm of reason, that I feel compelled to arraign it at the tribunal of public opinion, and besides, I am not trying to save the world—I gave up that pursuit a long time ago. But I am trying to do something good for others. We must recognize that BDO has a penchant for counterinsurgency and clandestine operations. That's probably obvious to a blind man on a galloping horse. Nevertheless, I suspect that few people reading this letter are aware that I have a misty, inchoate suspicion that BDO will leave a generation of people planted in the mud of a drugged-out world to begin a new life in the shadows of vigilantism in the near future. Even so, I have a soft spot for uncontrollable schmoes: a bog not too far from here. BDO wants to create a regime of sexist alcoholism. What's wrong with that? What's wrong is BDO's gossamer grasp of reality. I would like to close by saying that BDO harbors a sense of entitlement and an expectation of success beyond reason.

Yours Truly,

Are you serious? It was a Tuesday night in bumfuck Illinois in the middle of a recession, and you want to blame the company for filling up tables? I guarantee that the restaurant owner is not upset about anything. The company helped him make payroll last night.

Business owners do it all the time. Servers/Waitstaff are their own business owners in my eyes at $4 hr. If you ran a business and someone stiffed you on your work, you'd take them to court at best, or tell them to **** off at worst. He obviously can't take them to court over this, telling them to **** off is perfectly acceptable in this isolated incident. There aren't many excuses for this behavior, this is absolutely one of them. This company looks like assholes over $50. Pathetic.

Hey, well at least the owner is happy! **** the employees!

[Mr. Flopnuts]

The fact that Hootie tracked down the CEO (with CP's help of course) and took this course of action could have a couple of different results. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they went out of their way to get him fired, and I equally wouldn't be surprised if they offered him a job. One thing this country is lacking is big, brass, balls. Hootie showed some here, and if he maintained a level of professionalism in his complaint, and didn't come across like a whiny douche, they may respect the hell out of his candor, and persistence, and ability to find someone that mattered in a relatively short period of time.

But maybe they'll just have him traded to Smackdown.
