Java Junkiez
Hello, After reading all of the other articles about my former employers I thought I should chime in too. I worked for Travis and Kristy Flowers at their Montgomery Alabama Java Junkeiz location. The location was finally sold or closed down, im not sure.
Over the summer I worked for them for about 2 months. They claimed that they have been in the business with Java Junkiez for over a decade.....well that was a straight lie. They opened the store up, then a week later they left never to be seen again. They left us with a manager who had no idea what he was doing. The employees were working hard trying to learn there system of 100 drinks, but it was difficult and nobody really ever grasped it. We kept a positive outlook but that all changed when payday came.
Nobodys check was even close to what it should of been. And when we asked their manager that was there, he could not give us a satisfactory explanation either. I was a college student and that few hundred dollars I was shorted was a lot to me. I don't want to bash these people, but that is not fair. And when one team leader who was actually from Montgomery came back, she told me that they did the same thing at some of there other stores. It's not fair how people can get away with this. Long story short, none of us ever got what we were shorted :( Be wary if you ever work for Java Junkiez, and I'm glad that many of my coworkers speaked out about them.

ALSO, I would like to add, look at the dates of these post! Many of them are back to back and written by the same individuals. In this day, this company tries to do right by others and malicious people try to destroy what has been built. This is a warning to those that will try to follow suit, you will be found and we will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law. For any person that reads these post, Please use your best judgment! This is a business, like many others that have fallen victim to these type of employees, to try to destroy ones name for self centered reasons. Those that make these type of claims, would not have one issue if they did one thing.... THEIR J-O-B!!!!!!
As a manager, Read between the lines!!!! If a person was not paid for the amount they should have....Wouldn’t the manager have knowledge of the hours and what should be paid. Really People use your best judgment. THIS IS VERY SAD :(

To all that spend their days reading these disgraceful post. I would like to start off by saying that the individuals that have written these post may not be aware that there is legal remedy for these type of behaviors for defamation of character and Libel. This continued behavior shows the character of these selective individuals, that will use the internet to hide behind their malicious ad reckless acts. We have identified several key individuals behind these acts as they are like many of the disgruntle workers in the country that fail to show up, steal, embezzle from a company; Despite many chance given etc. The only thing this company is guilty of is allowing individuals like these; many undeserved chances time and time again. After time these individuals have to be stopped. If you have dealt with the members of this company you would know that they are the most hardest working people in the industry. The company strives for customer satisfaction 100% of the time but often times this is ignored by carelessness of employees that have no-ones interest but themselves.

I must say...I am not sure what personal vendetta these people have against Java Junkiez but I was an employee..at the Montgomery store and this couldnt be further from the truth. We were always paid on time and the owners although not there from day to day would always go above and beyond for the employees. They would give gas money or try to help out if one of us had a problem or giving bonuses. There were theft issues at the store that I know for a fact the owners didnt even file a police report because they didnt want to ruin someones life for a stupid mistake. I just feel that I should chime in because I am not even sure these are real people with any kind of knowledge writing these reports. I think anyone who really knows them would realize that these are lies. I would go back to work for them any day.
