Cafe Intermezzo Response

Dear Former Employee, We are saddened to hear about your opinion of our management team. We do work hard to appreciate our team and we do take measures to show our team how much we care for them. We offer a guaranteed match into an IRA, we offer insurance, and pay vacation time to all hourly positions! This is because we care. I trust that others considering employment with our company will consider that along with the jaded viewpoint of this employee. We would never call our guests "terrible" For all of those considering employment with our organization: If you have a servant's heart, you will love our company and our customers!
