Gorilla Coffee Shop Reopens


Two weeks ago the entire staff of the Gorilla Coffee Shop in Brooklyn NY quit their jobs - simultaneously!

This was national news, as we are in a lousy economy and the place was regarded as a neighborhood favorite! One of the employees said that the work environment was “Perpetually malicious, hostile, and demeaning." (Sounds like a couple of radio gigs that I've had.)

Well, after 16 days, the place reopened, today. The early reviews say that the place "Ain't the same!"

Duh! This is simply another instance of employees being under appreciated and probably underpaid. I hope the owners lose a lot of money.

I guess you could that the staff had sufficient "grounds" for quitting.
