Cool boss - Luke Benjamin

| No Comments
No, make that cold boss. From Seattle station KING5:
Pizza employees ordered to work in the cold
LACEY, Wash. � Employees of a pizza delivery shop say the owners has cut off the heat in the store. And they say if the workers don�t like it, they can leave.

Dan Baxter, who works at the Pizza Time in Lacey, says he expects to be fired for talking to KING 5 News about this.

�When it�s really, really cold, like when it�s 19 (degrees) outside, it will be 25 in the store,� said Baxter.

So what about using the ovens to heat the place?

�The ovens create a little bit of heat, but the exhaust fans pull it all out,� said Baxter.
And the boss:
Owner Luke Benjamin stands by his chilly stance.

�They know where they work. If they can�t deal with it then there are plenty of other jobs out there,� said Benjamin.
And the real story:
The temperature was 55 degrees when we went in on Friday, but we saw something else. There�s a space heater in the office where Benjamin�s wife � the real boss � runs her accounting business.

Then we get to the real truth of the matter.

�It doesn�t look good, but she�s my wife and my boss and she tells me what she�s going to do and I�m not going to argue with her,� said Benjamin.
Not only is the guy whipped, he is taking it out on his employees. Schmuck.
