Alright, that's it. Before one more person responds to my posting, I suggest, first, you learn to read, second, learn to spell and third, think about what you are typing before you end up looking stupid. I am not, I repeat, NOT defending the managment at Pizza Hut. If anyone feels that venting to a web site that does nothing other than post it for people to see, as useful, then fine, that's your opinion. Apparently I need to reiterate. I stated already in my update that I no longer work for that company. Sometimes it's just better to not work for someone if the cons out weigh the pros. It's not avoiding dealing with it, it's just realizing that the job position just isn't worth the bother. If that's not dealing with it, then I don't know what is. For the record, I was not spoon fed any of my update. Before you put your fingers to the keyboard again, consider taking the spoon, undoubtibly full of pablum, out of out your mouth first.

it might be more acceptable for the retraction if it did not sound like he was being handfed everything that he wrote. Tim suddenly went from evil jerk to demi God who is just as mucha victim as the original writer. Anyone can tell that the original was a vent. letting off stea mand perhaps riporr reports was not the best place to do that. but that is 1 person blowing off steam.. if there were 5 or 6 different people letting the world know how they felt about this same restaurant then there might be an issue. All jobs have managers that prefer certain people over others, you are not likely to find a place where that is not true. deal with it!

I might suggest that any one reading the "Retraction" from the original poster, accept it with a grain of salt. "Why" you might ask. He did the retraction 1 YEAR and 1 WEEK after the original post. Just something to think about.

At the time that I originally wrote about Kenora's Pizza Hut and Tim Spak and Travis Sundin as managers, I was beyond livid at how anyone could knowingly run a business and have the formerly mentioned things go on. Ripoff.com is what seems to be nothing more than a way to bring certain things to the public's attention. I posted my complaint out of anger and frustration, but not the intent of hatred. I meant everything and I was not dishonest, overly rude or immature. I didn't even realize what I had done until Tim himself called me after finding what I had written about. I know I would be upset if I found such bad things said about me. For the record, I have brought small problems to Tim's attention. He may have had the intention to change things for the better, but I always felt like a worker bee not getting anywhere talking to Tim about problems that I had encountered. More often than not, it was things that were out of Tim's control that never changed. It wasn't always because they were beyond Tim's control but the main problems were. That is the main reason why I quit working for the Pizza Hut industry, because the management above a mere store manager control more than Tim can change. In Tim's defense, he helped me out alot at work and if he was my boss, but not in the given situation of working at that particular job, then I would have no problem working for him. Even if Tim was a dink, which he is not, finding out that one of his employees went behind his back and posted a public complaint wouldn't accomplish anything. I will say this, somtimes there are some managers that have good intentions and some that don't. Sometimes it's hard to speak face to face about some problems because it won't do any good. It is my opinion that Tim does in fact care, at least somewhat, and it was the whole industry that I had more of a complaint towards. If someone from the district management cared at all about employees, I wouldn't even have had to try to obtain help from outside Pizza Hut. It could've been handled internally and Tim could have had the problems brought to his attention by people who could actually make him change things. Unfortunately, our district management does not care about their employees and therefore does nothing ever to help out the little guy. It's all about sales, despite what they will tell you, and Tim really just does what he's told. I was wrong to use the internet as a vehicle to post a simple ranting online for anyone to see. I believe that offical complaints should be brought to the attenion of specific people who can help and not simply posted for anyone to see just for the purpose seeing. Ripoff.com is a good place to go to blow off steam, but I would never post anything expecting to receive any real help in whatever situation I have written about.
