Complaint Review: Eric Dones Chef Services

I hired "chef" Eric Dones adter he replied to an ad  I placed online for a chef to cook at 4  upcoming holiday parties.  Eric said he was well experineced ,showed a large resume spanning over 15 years.  Eric did come across as a bit creepy, he talked a mile a minute and peered nervously through his glasses in a way that just made me uneasy.  Nevrtheless I was in need of a chef and I took a chance .  First day on the job it was clear Eric was no more then a lbeginner ine cook  Kitchen staff advised ne to get rid of him but I actuallu felt bad for him and kept him on.  He burned a slamon dish on the first day,t dropped full pots and pans ,took numerous breaks and even walked out  "sick"before the last course was to be served,

Well I wish I could just say this guy is a lousey worker but no . Here is why I am writing this warning :On vEric's his last day he told me the main dish  on the menu was bot going to wrok and he needed $200 to go to the store and purchase some items including the main dish .   Eric never returned!  We also found several items missing from my kitchen such  as knives, a sclae ,caviar and wine . I feel so stupid for hiring this man without doing a background check.

This man is a fraud a labpr faker and simply a creep.  DO NOT pay this man upfront or trust him in any way.  I all my years of hiring I have never dealt with anyone lower then this louse. BEWARE PEOPLE learn from my mistake.
