The Federal gets the food revenue plus about three bucks on every cover charge. And yes, when these entitled people show up and wave a big check, the Federal doesn't care about us at all. This has happened numerous times - last year it happened three times in a row, at which point I said I would leave if something wasn't done - it hasn't happened since then, and since when does a Bar Mitzvah party happen on a Sunday?
Yes, they get like ten grand for these events - it's all studio events or rich people waving their checkbooks. I always thought Bar Mitzvahs happened on Saturdays and that the parties were either directly after the event or that evening.
So you're treated like filler. Call me old-fashioned, but I feel a commitment is a commitment.
Evening all. I won't be posting at this time next week when I go back to work.Hoping that all are well. Sending Vibes to DR JRand and all who need them.
Congrats to DR Jane on your HHW milestone!

I also ordered Hello, Dolly from amazon.com. I got a package in the mail yesterday. Instead of the CD, the envelope contained 4 tire valve covers ( I think that's what they're called).. I called amazon yesterday and the representative told me that I would receive a replacement today. I didn't. Called again. Was told I will now get one on Sunday. I also got a $5 credit on future purchases. In addition, yesterday I was told I would get a one-month extension on my Prime subscription.
Jome from a lovely dinner with Susanna Moross Tarjan, friends who work with me on the Moross website, and Jenny Lee, the Columbia University Library curator of the Moross Collection. The dinner was spectacular!http://www.molyvos.com

The show was almost 3 hours long, but to me it didn't seem like it. The lead actor was fantastic! He and the show got a deserved standing ovation. Was Sharry in this?
