And our highest paid to lowest paid employee ratio is 1:5, max.


This morning–well not this morning that you come to read this, but rather this morning as I write–is officially the end of my first TWO weeks as a restaurant owner. If you didn’t hear, because we’re not exactly the fanfare type…Kendall, Ross, Chris, and myself (and our parent company) all bought a restaurant. In Grasse.
