reeko Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 there should be a health warning on this place, they burn through chefs and managers like nobody's business.

barrym Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 I don't want to get into personally slagging any individual off,what I will tell people is that the owner has since made personal threats towards myself which I find absolutely digusting,me and my friend were loyal members of staff working days off for no pay but to no avail,I personally paid for deliveries out of my own pocket on many occasions as the management never seemed to b around!!and now after leaving they are throwing accusations round which is totally unexceptible,there is much much more I could say but that's just not my style,when I work for an employer I always give 100% as does my friend Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/39442-the-cherry-tree/#findComment-704298 Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pibe Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Noone will be surprised at this, they have untold counts of previous.Is there not a pub managers and head chefs forum where you can blacklist the place?

holloway Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 barrym, do not take this personally. the landlord in there is notorious for this kind of thing. it' s a total mystery how this pub is still going. i have yet to come across anyone with a good word to say about it. if you now find yourself without work, have a wander into the 'george canning' on grove lane. the couple running it are terrific and they might be looking for a live-in chef/bar-man as the previous one has just left (under happy circumstances) to go travelling.

pipsky2008 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Barrym. If you feel you were unfairly dismissed, you could go through an employment tribunal.I just thought what a great venue for the new Grove Vale Library the Cherry Tree building would make.

unlurked Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I'm not sure of the reason for your post, barrym but you say you have had threats made against you-that is a very serious allegation - not wise to do on a publib forum without offering any proof. I recall seeing you drinking and laughing with the management several times so can only assume the relationship has broken down quite recently. I hope the new year brings better for you.

Letting rooms out above the pub with electric meters must be how they make their money.
