    I believe they weren’t assigning the servers to more than 1 table because of how there were managing the walk-in list. Many times there were empty tables inside yet no one outside could get a seat.

  • @triplex7281
    @triplex7281 5 месяцев назад +5

    This interview didn't uncover anything that wasn't already said. Only difference is she had time to perfect her responses. What she isn't saying is how SHE demanded the gratuities by saying the servers are refusing to work until he paid it. Knowing the contract stated he would pay them to her and she would include it on their next check. He walked out because they didn't want to work. In the video, looked like they didn't say that, Shantell did. Also, she did NOT have bartenders like she stated. Cory wasnt there for that but he jumped in. She was to seat people (run FOH). Why was noone seated outside? That's the reason he told her ask people to get up. LaQuinta was only there to help. She jumped in because it wasn't being done right.
