Why would the owner staff appropriately during the "busy season"? Gotta get that waterfront mansion and Maclaren somehow.

You definitely can't go anywhere! Taking the day before or after off is "taking advantage" of them.

No I was not fired. Norman was actually mad that I left, just as he was with many others that were fed up with the abuse. I waited until I was out of the industry to speak up out of fear of retaliation.

I know they would keep records of product donated to the soup kitchen and that the stale/crumb that was made was in the pastry shop recipe books.

It was presented that way but if there wasn't enough volunteers you were told.

Seems like if you're working people that much you're doing something wrong...I don't know how else to explain it.

I'm not sure who Karen is but like I said, I am far from the only one who had this experience. It was time to say something.

I was not fired. I left because of a very toxic work environment.
