Its easy to say screw it and walk out. You said the Hotel room occupancy is down. Thats the area that makes the money. The Hotel Room sales are the driver of profits. The problem is they don't give you enough info to understand the whole business. You are in charge of Food and Beverage and thats what you do best. It looks like the cow pie is hitting the fan. Hotel room Sales are down, the breakfast is a give-a-way, and the new owners only know thye are loosing their shirt. They are trying to cut labor in the only area they could. Putting all the pressure on you and taking it off of them. I would make a schedule for the kitchen that you could live with and still help them accomplish a labor savings environment. You need to work a schedule that is fair to you. You need to hire people to help you accomplish, the dishwashing, catering and your time off.....If they don't agree with this, then they will have to run the kitchen with a cook. Its not your fault the economy is ditching, but you can only cut your labor so much......Good luck...Bill  |
