are you going to be visiting soon? if so, i'd sure want to avoid this restaurant at all costs (although it will also hurt the servers)

ponorovsky certainly is NOT the best boss ever, like mine is! (i actually DO like my boss by the way)

Owner of trendy Manhattan restaurant Paradou plumbs new depths of evil bad-bossitude
Cory Doctorow

Vadim Ponorovsky, the owner of the restaurant Paradou in trendy Park Slope Manhattan's meat-packing district, sent his employees an email in which he called them "lazy motherfuckers" because they failed to extract enough email addresses from their customers (he has a spam list and he makes it his servers' duty to get email addresses out of diners). Ponorovsky went on to call his employees "fucking lazy disrespectful assholes," "fucking children," and said, "Effective immediately, any server or host who fails to collect at least 20 emails per week, will be fined $100. Anyone failing to collect at least 20 emails for two weeks in a month will be fired immediately. No matter what. No matter who you are."

He also threatened to fire his entire staff, saying, "I have absolutely no respect for any of you," and "Go find another place to work.".............
