I work at a restaurant and I can't understand the logic of the owner not replacing the ice machine. We get it fixed and it breaks again a month later. The ice machine is 16 years old. I understand that there is a lot of upfront cost to getting a new machine but at a certain point tens of thousands of dollars are being wasted in the long run. The owner would rather have the managers spead $1,000 a week on ice, plus the cost to repair the ice machine each time it gets "fixed."

I'm amazed that other managers don't speak up for the poor management decision, especially when the manager cutting servers isn't even the GM. There are some managers that think that no matter how busy it is they start cutting servers at 7pm. It's really annoying.
