I'm sorry, but if you are the frickin' General Manager and are dumb enough to speak this way about paying customers you deserve to be let go.Do you think the general manager should have been fired because of an email? Why or why not?
Yeah, you can't get away with this kind of stuff these days. That's not the image the company wants to present if they want more business.
Well to save the imagine of the restaurant they didn't want to keep him around, also that is not setting a good example from someone who is a manager and professionalism is important.Do you think the general manager should have been fired because of an email? Why or why not?
Yes. There is nothing proper about this email. I would think a little respect for paying customers would be in order. They did the right thing.
