My Manager Is Trying To Make Us Pay For A Grease Fire That None Of Us Caused

Card image cap

Location: Georgia, USA

Basically what the title says but they were originally gonna make us pay more to help out the employee who caused it with the promise that we’d be paid back. (Nobody signed it) Now the person who caused it has quit and we got this message today…

“Hey team big announcement regarding the grease fire in December. I've listened to everyone's concerns about the original contract and we have come to a final conclusion with a new contract being drafted. In summary: total owed is $3250, $1625 of it will be paid by the responsible party and the other $1625 paid by the remainder of the servers like originally planned. This time around though, instead of having people owed money, the owners are going to front the 50% out of their pockets (on top of the $3250 they're already paying) and the servers are going to pay the owners their portion. I will be paying $225 out of my pocket to make it less for everyone. The payments will be in the form of deductibles from paychecks and final numbers come down to $127| server and will be split over two checks so $63

deductible per check.”
