Thank you Jerry. You will notice that I will not make any personal judgement of your worth, in my post but will continue try to discuss the issue.

You will acept that it is true that their are plenty of chip shops needing to be managed.

Though quite how many owners would tolerate their managers being seen to constantly complain about their customers, their staff and their policy - is not sure.

But the other option is for those complainers to start one of their own. But again I am not sure how many customers would be attracted to a shop with such a policy - but this would be a fair test and more honest approach than to try and dictate terms to and changing an established business to suit the manager's requirements.
