Isn’t this person a giant piece of shit ? Or am I thinking of another local business owner

I've heard from a few folks I know who work in the service industry that she's not a very pleasant person to be employed by. But I don't know the lady so I can't say first hand.

Ok , yea I’m pretty sure there’s a few threads on this sub describing the nature of this woman , and it is not good. Idc how good the food is. If you treat staff and customers like shit , get fucked

There have been many threads on how shitty she is to customers and her own workers.

Delivered mail to this lady a few times. just being a chipper mailman and all that. without too much detail, she made me feel lower than dirt. decided to never eat there ever after that.

The bagel place is on an 'auxiliary route' . these routes are usually smaller than a normal usps route and are sometimes given to newbies in their 'first 90'. I was doing my thing, first month or so with usps, and I had some express mail for her that required a signature. so I had to go into the shop and ask where she was. the staff pointed her out, and she looked pretty busy. (morning rush and all that) so I waited patiently until she was done.

when I approached here, she did not believe I was a carrier. (we don't get the gear til after our first 90) i had my keys, scanner, hat, other stuff that might tip someone off that I was legit. but she really pressed me on it. i stayed polite and told her that all I needed was a signature. she said I was disturbing her while she was trying to run her business and some other stuff I can't remember now. what I do remember is feeling awful walking out of there.

she did accept the mail, and after seeing me a few more times, stopped pressing me. but always this vibe that I was inconveniencing her and her business. talking down to me like a child, stuff like that. my whole demeanor changed when I had to go into that place. I went from chipper to sullen when I got to that address. anyways, now I eat at Providence bagel :))

I think she talks to everyone like a child. I’m sorry you experienced that. She really is a menace.

Sounds horrible. I'm sure a lot of people go in there asking to speak with the owner without identifying themselves or their motive and that can be irritating while somebody is trying to work. I'm so happy you've been able to recover from it though! Or is it still bothering you? :-(

I wonder if she thought she was about to be served and wanted to avoid it

Such sensitive emotions! I wonder who has thinner skin, the evil bagel queen or the mail-person without uniform?

Probably the bagel queen given she is pretending to be someone else in this thread and has personally commented on every negative comment..

Or are YOU the bagel queen?!

Unlikely, I don’t think highly of myself enough for “queen”, I’m bagel duchess at best.

Apparently. Also what is this goofy ass reward sponsored by some bank lol? Incredible stuff.

Do you mean the award? James Beard Awards are probably the most prestigious American culinary achievement a chef can get. It actually functions as a charitable organization advocating for food-related issues so they always have corporate sponsors.

I actually had no idea. Restaurants aren't my scene but it's always good to learn.

If you hope to learn more in the future, you might want to reconsider your approach to topics you don't know anything about.

Oh i agree but this is reddit so it might be the place to just say things off the cuff sometimes. Not so much in a real life or serious setting.
