[@i.c.u.2907]

It’s so funny you #scottsherrysr, cause I have been watching this man for I believe to the closer end of 10 years, and that is my favourite part of every show, John gets fired up, he so angry movin fast to tear up some asses, and walks in like a G of a gentleman 🤩

[@debrastarr8436]

And he always walks into the bar with this look on his face like he just smelled a fart.

[@Lunasent]

At 1:18:43 he says "Nine pounds of failure and it wasn't your fault, girls. You guys worked your butts off tonight." Three of them turned their heads to look at him with surprise. You could see that they were touched for being acknowledged and praised for their hard work.

Don’t get drunk while your working! Even if it’s 3 shots like you said, your to drunk already!

Ok let’s be honest here ..yeah the dude is a total douche but the owner is worse. He actually said “Kevin makes great food. He’s an asset” That’s a much bigger issue than a guy with delusions that he’s a good. No way should a guy with that poor judgment be running a lemonade stand let alone a bat!

[@TravisBroski]

I actually respect Wayne for how he handled the firing. Accepted it, knew the bar life wasn't it, and he looks forward to a new chapter. No fight, no shout, no begging, he just took it and carried on. So why the hell did the lady want to keep him in so bad?

[@BR4IN1N4J4R]

I'm not even a bartender and I can make an old fashioned. 1.5-2oz of spirit (seen them with tequila, rum, whiskey, etc), 2 dashes of Ango (or pechauds depending on spirit), twist of orange over ice in a rocks glass. The fact she had the stones to say "I'm a server. I don't know" is horse's ass. YOU serve the drinks, therefore YOU should be familiar with the menu

[@johnathanpatrick6118]

@@DreFromMaine8472 Agreed. And I'm angrier with their mother because she's the damn manager and easily could have nipped all of that in the bud and not have to consult Jon. This is why hiring family is always asking for trouble when they're unqualified or underqualified for the job.

What’s even more ridiculous, is that both of those girls have dated the grandson at some time or another. Which is why, working with partners is a train wreck waiting to happen.

[@professionalshitpost4443]

The first guy, Wayne, handled that so well. He knew this wasn’t the job for him and I bet he was relieved when he got fired. Good luck to him wherever he is now!

[@firechasersparkles2023]

And hopefully he learned from his mistakes.

[@tiger8952]

I think the owner was the problem

[@christopherh4891]

Some people like that honestly want to quit but feel bad about doing it because the owner probably told them at some point "I really need you to stay" even though they hate the job and know they don't like doing it and want to move on they stay cause they feel bad for quitting. Even said at the end something about time to move on to different things

[@TariqBusy]

That cook was trash. He handled it so well because he was trash and had gotten away with paychecks for making trash.

[@jongaulthero]

Dude, he was fucking stoned out of his mind.

[@Ju_lie8571]

To be fair Melody and Jana didn’t deserve to be fired, they were over pouring because they weren’t trained properly. It’s the audacity of the girl to be mad when both her and her brother were stealing

[@dominickjustave3558]

Family business 😂😂😂😂

[@ToastieBuns]

Agreed! This was the one firing scene in Bar Rescue that I didn’t approve of. Jana even said she’s never been a bartender before, and she’s overpowering…SO TRAIN YOUR STAFF!

[@jshah1961]

I’ve had many years in the bar business and can tell you, you simply cannot be pissed at your bartenders for over pouring if you couldn’t be bothered to train them. Over pouring for many is a natural instinct you have to teach them the correct way.

[@poodypooroo]

This is so right. How many of the people in this video were fired because of behavior and situation the owner outright created and encouraged? The one with the miss piggy looking lady where she fired the "selfish" Melissa, when she was behaving 10 times worse. The guy yelling at people for stealing from him and firing the one girl even though none of them were trained in how much to pour. That isn't a "landmark" firing, all it does is tell people you're arbitrary and not interested in taking responsibility. Don't even get me started on the people who were fired for having an attitude when they hadn't been paid. Want your staff to respect you? Make sure they get their damn paychecks. You pay your staff before you pay anyone else, including your damn self.

I feel sorry for the server, getting fired just because the manager is trying to look big in front of John. Most servers are doing 10-12 hour shifts often without breaks. Many times they're just grabbing what food they can to make it through the day.

This is why family owned restaurants don’t usually succeed.

[@RaiderGirlChell]

​​​@@gaminghq97 Disclaimer, before I go ranting: That one is tricky. You can argue both ways that he should be fired for that, but at the same time, that was unreasonable. He should've had at least one warning. If he didn't officially clock out, he's still on the clock. He should've asked for a break or something. Are your working, never worked, or did you work before? When you're on the clock, you're supposed to be working. You're getting paid to work while on the clock. You eat and do whatever you want to do on your own time. Work sucks and so does the business, but as they say: Life isn't fair. Get used to it. Also, just hypothetically, would you be okay with YOUR food coming out to you not knowing that someone has touched your food? One, he was screwing his customers and two, he can get someone sick.

@@Elleoaqua Why do addicts lie about their addiction? It's shame, and stigmatizing drug users certainly doesn't help with that shame. Addiction needs an emotional hook to grab on to as well. If someone like myself is very prone to diagnosed depression then drugs become incredibly easy to become dependent on. I have also noticed people who are addicts had addictions in childhood. Sucking thumb into later years, bitting nails, and playing video games are things that can help build the coping pathways that make drugs so comforting and appealing. The same hook I have to alcohol is the same j had as a kid for video games. It's a way to check out from the daily depression I deal with.

As it is I dunno if this type of firing is even legal, they're literally naming and shaming people before firing them at best and they're brought into a film set and miced all to be fired on camera at worst, it makes me wonder if any of them have sued Bar Rescue or the bars for improper termination.

@Dr. Hibbs I csn tell you've never worked for an independent scummy employer before nor have you needed to actually use laws for yourself.

People like them need to be shaken by the neck before they do the right thing and if you're a woman you have the ability to freak out and get what you want so why not?
