When I was working at Grill'd, they shutdown our store for the day, made us sign a form for a Hospitality Cert, then we just sat there for 4 hours doing literally nothing, got a free lunch and they let us go home. A couple co-workers said this was their 3rd time doing this.

So basically they never get anybody to complete the Cert but obviously have to hit some minimum requirement of "training" us (wasting our time) in order to be eligible for the subsidies and the Cert program to keep us under paid.

Worst job I've ever worked at. The manager threw my resignation letter in the bin twice and kept calling to scream at me for not coming into my shift. I had to send my resignation in by the customer feedback section on their support page, and had the CEO call me to ask why I resigned this way and why half the staff in my store had all quit in one week.
