re: John Besh Steps Down as Head of Restaurant Empire

What are the sexual harrassment allegations? The article only says he had a consensual relationship with an employee 2 years ago?

lol at anyone that thinks the restaurant/ service industry is the same as others. It's vastly different. While they should have HR, I would bet they don't because it's basically his chain of restaurants that all operate under different rules and their managers deal with those directly. So he has whatever many restaurants that each employee 100-200 each and then his side businesses that have handfuls of employees. It's not like it was a chain restaurants.

The service industry is completely different industry, that's like saying strippers and nurses have similar Hr rules. Females literally push the limits all the time themselves to get tips, better schedules, Better table sections, etc. That doesn't make it right, it makes it life. They also serve booze and normal hours of operation are 10pm to 2pm. People get drunk and horny and stuff happens. Doesn't make anything right, but happens constant in the industry.

Due to the hours and job conditions, there are also a ton of assholes and bad work working conditions. Women too, they either become extremely tough or they leave pretty quickly. Nice good girls arent exaxrly strippers for example, that's to the extreme but not too far off.

Lastly, this crap happens all the time in privately held businesses. Owner screws up personally and they put someone else in charge while owner operates quietly on the sidelines until things clear up. He'll lose money, but the idea most of his restaurants will close is simply laughable unless there's way more than the articles state.

My guess is the casino changes names until It clears up and Besh comes back later after operating it quietly the whole time. Simply firing him for allegations would cost them a lot of money.
