Danny are you reading the posts?
eatonmagic said, "rarely does corporate discuss issues with GM's." ...and I agree with him, most leave the hiring and firing up to the local manager. They could care less about a part time magician. Every restaurant manager I've known had one thing in common, they were the boss. They called the shots and they didn't normally ask the part time help for business advice. And they didn't hire people and then later want proof that they had made the right decision. They simply judged the worker by the work performed. Now, I'm not saying that Michael's plan won't work. He has proven that it does work for him. But Michael is much more than just a 'magician.' He has a completely different skill that he is using. Still I'm like Curtis, I'm not sure most magicians want to wear all the extra hats. They want to simply be good at being a magician and let the chips fall where they may. Tom

I guess you do a lot of restaurant work huh Tom?
Every corporate chain from McDonald's on up has weekly meetings and conference calls. Michael is absolutely wrong in this respect. Did Michael advocate doing anything except showing his value? I missed it if he did sorry.

Of course the large chains call the local people.
But do you really believe they call up wanting to talk to the Tuesday night magician. Michael didn't say they didn't call, he said they rarely discussed issues. Tom

They want to know where every dollar goes. They talk about branding issues which entertainment is. Yes definitely they ask. Every week. But having been in these meetings I guess you have a different viewpoint.
Labor costs are a HUGE topic and entertainment would loom quite large. I am shocked with your vast restaurant knowledge you don't know this. See Tom how chains work is they get a labor budget based on last years numbers. They are then required to squeeze those numbers as small as possible. Often the GM has a bonus based on those numbers. They try the to get to get the highest cost items like high hourly salary as low as possible. How did your restaurant do it Tom? Curtis? So if Michael said they don't talk it is absolutely wrong.

My restaurant wasn't a McDonald's or a like large chain. What chain did you own?
Danny, you don't have to be a very smart fellow to understand that restaurants don't hire magicians to run the business. They have a different job. Tom

WOW,
I think that everyone has had their say in this matter and it is time to put this to bed. Look no one is getting anywhere as the posts just keep going back and forth without merit. Eaton has a product for sale and is talking about this product in this thread which is against The Magic Café' Rules to sell your own product without being a sponsor. I looked and could not find anywhere that Eaton was a Magic Café' Sponsor. So therefore I am going to ask the Moderators to either Delete or Lock this thread. We are all grown ups and we all have our own opinions. So let us all just agree to disagree and move on. Rodney

Rodney, I think you right. Thanks
When you get started in threads like this it's just hard to stop. I do apologize to everyone for all my rambling. I will stop. Tom

I've been on here for several years and offered MANY free tips and pieces of advice. Apparently you guys missed those. But yes, let's go after the guy who can help your business. Smart.
BTW, this post started out as an idea I had and was asking your opinions on the matter. It wasn't until I started receiving several PM's from people interested that I decided to move forward on it. |

Danny,
When YOU stop edging threads on with attacks and useless BS THEN you can call me on it. And Eaton, Your ratio leans VERY heavy towards "Post only to Plug." You are both tiresome. Bazinga! |

Dude your only point is to attack. Talk about tiresome. No wonder this nonsense goes on forever.

Not an attack - a complaint. But as Rodney said, the complaints about it go ignored. That's o.k. This ain't my Café. We play by the owner's rules or we don't play. I'm cool with it. But I'll still complain about certain things.
YOU'RE the attacker, over and over and over again. That's just about all you do lately. So now you have the power to stop what you're complaining about on this thread... don't reply any more. You can't resist. You'll reply. You can't help it. Buy Timmy. Bazinga! |

Yes the oh you will respond you can't help it after you attack someone must pass as clever in your world right?
Yea you have the power to stop. But then again you attack from behind a screen name you lifted from a sit com so what are we to expect anyhow? Go ahead attack some more. It is really all you ever do. What have you added exactly? Go ahead respond you can't help it. LOL.

Clever enough for you to emulate. That means you try to do the same thing. And the correct term for a colloquial (meaning common or informal) word for "yes" is YEAH. Add the "H." I know literacy is not your thing, but if you want people to ever take you seriously you should at least try not to sound so stupid in your grammar and spelling.
But YEAH, I do have the power to stop. I chose not to. And if it's such a crime to use a username then you should alert the Café management that they have a serous breech going on throughout the board. But then YOU attack everyone who has the slightest disagreement with any of the feces that spews from your pie hole, and even those who innocently ask for a clarification, the d@mn LIBERALS. How dare they! Oh save us, oh Lord, from those who are not Ultra Right Wing Fascists (you DO know that's what's at the far edge of the right wing, right?) Let's see, what else did you misread or make up out of thin ether from my post. Oh YEAH, any additions I may have added to this thread. Show me where I claimed I did add anything to it. Go on, SHOW ME! Can't? O.K. Bazinga! - A screen name I'm allowed to use because America is a free country (no thanks to you Nazi Neo-Cons!) |
