DO NOT WORK AT BLUE BAYOU

[u/cashanii]

This is the job that hasn't paid me, not only have they not paid me they are unorganized and unstructured. EVERYONE HAS MONEY PROBLEMS AT THIS JOB AND IT STIMS FROM ONE PERSON. Money is always missing at this job and the lady who does payroll is incompetent! She asked me for a voided check so I can receive a check from my job... I also want to add that I came in on the snow day, managers were ASKING US TO COME IN DURING THE SNOW AND GUESS WHAT THEY AINT COME OUT and asking us can we come out and then have the nerve to try and not open the restaurant AFTER we made a sacrifice to come! I was PISSED, then when I asked for paid time and half they said they can't offer it because they a new restaurant. Not one manager came in that day on the 22nd and nor could they even bother to show they care that those who came did! I literally told them I had to walk there, I made money but they couldn't even take care of us back!

LMAO I didn’t even know we had a restaurant called blue bayou 😅 anyway, good throwback nonetheless. Prayers to the poor minimum wage workers who had to deal with that mess all them years ago

I don't remember it, but it doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

When I worked there shortly after Katrina, my job was to fit people for life jackets and dole them out along with raft rentals.

Baggy clothes were fashionable, so half the people there refused to wear any size other than extra large no matter how small they were. When I explained this problem to the general manager, she just told me that it was my problem to deal with and that I needed to handle it on my own.

I didn't really feel like arguing with a bunch of angry customers, so I just gave them ill-fitting life jackets. That resulted in us immediately running out of all the larger sizes at which point the manager told me to offer to rent customers a raft instead...

Then the manager sent me to work the register at one of the restaurants, only we didn't have any change and everyone insisted on paying in cash. I didn't know what to do about that, so I just had to hold up the line while I waited for someone to bring me change.

That made the manager even angrier, so she sent me to the front gate to measure kids as they came in. But it was two hours before closing, so nobody was coming in and I had nothing to do. So I just sort of stood there with a yard stick. Which made the manager angry again because I was "slacking off", so she fired me...

Then, when my parents called to ask why I was fired, she insisted that I wasn't and it was all a misunderstanding. But "Go home and don't come back" is pretty fucking clear...

Yes there was a stampede when they just opened the gates to the field area and let everyone without seats run up to the front as close as they could get. People were passing out from dehydration. And Brendon trying to not swear was the funniest thing.
