I left on holiday for 3 weeks from the bakery I used to work at where I was the main line guy and handled the ordering and scheduling.
A few days before another line guy left as he was moving so this meant that between the 2 of us we used to do 6 days and the weekend so now the other 3 people trained on the line were going to have to do that some more.
I come back and in week 1 one guy quit as he literally couldn’t handle the heat (the AC wasn’t great so the line would easily get to about 100 F after being open for a few hours), week 2 another was fired because he wasn’t keeping up with prep (but he was on the line 5 days so how was he supposed to), and then once I get back after another few days they fire number 3 who was also the kitchen manager because of how poorly the last few weeks had been.
I put my notice in there and then.
And that’s how they lost 80% of their kitchen team in less than a month.
That’s not true. How do you suppose people work outside in most summer climates? There are rules regarding water availability and such, but no outright prohibitions on working above a certain temperature.
Hell, I keep my AC set at 78F because it takes the edge off but is easy on my energy bill.
Unfortunately that’s not true like the other guy said, what did happen though was the cooling cabinets wouldn’t stay within for safety limits so there was a chance that things would be in the temperature danger zone for too long.
After I left I did call the health department as I was concerned with how the bakery manager was that they wouldn’t try and fix any of the issues unless forced too.
I also found out, last week that the business owner finally fired her as she didn’t want to close the business for a couple days when they had an active sewage leak in the basement and instead of trying to solve the problem she just complained how it was inconveniencing her and then she left to go to a Phillies game.
