Apparently the new company decided to make some changes in the management team. Steve, the old GM, was terminated as was Art, another manager and friend of mine. There was no warning or hint that it was about the happen. Steve was putting away stock when the home office rep came up and basically told him to stop working because he was being terminated. It was a bit of a shock.
They screwed Art even more though. He was on vacation last week and they decided on Wednesday that they weren’t going to be bring him on board. So, they are denying that they fired him which means he can’t even get unemployment and they didn’t give a severance package. Now, I’m no lawyer but I would think that depending on the deal with Regal, the new company took the building AND the employees. Which means that they did fire Art. Because had he not been on vacation he would have been there on Friday to fill out paperwork and then on Wednesday they would have fired him. Not this, “oh, we never hired you” crap.
Oh, and did I mention Thor is the new GM? And they are bringing Stewee back, even after they made such a big deal about Regal not transfering employees from the grande? I guess they didn’t have a problem with taking Regal employees from another theater. One things for sure though, It’s going to be interesting ride.
