Oh cute, so you're his friend and you think he's a great guy.

Have you worked for him? I did for two years in high school, as did many of my friends in high school. The way he treats his employees is indefensible by any metric. I don't treat my adult employees the way he treats high school aged kids.

As an adult, I have a few friends who have had professional dealings with him, and even done him personal favors, and they share my opinion that he's just a top notch, unappreciative, pompous a-hole.

Expensive does not mean I can't afford it. It means I won't pay a premium at an establishment that I know is owned by an a-hole. Simple as that.

I have a friend who managed a Leblanc's. He learned of the buyout on the radio. He tried to tough out the transition but it only went from bad to worse. He quit.

sounds like you got stuck on chicken salad duty and couldn't handle it. If you lasted 2 years it couldn't have been that bad. My boss in high school was a prick. I called him a-hole all the time but not to his face. To his face I called him dad.

My good old friend Phil has worked for him for over 20 years every morning of the week. He doesn't have a problem with him. Buck up Junior. Chalk it up to character building.
