5% of revenue per year.
Approximately 10% (closer to 10% on average).
Few days ago, I had a company come in here called econnect. It's a video system that taps into the cash register and it shows everything that every person does in this room. And when I looked at the tapes, I saw one of two things. I either saw them stealing, you know what, or I saw such a lack of accounting controls.
Ridiculous.
That it's disrespectful to you.
I don't steal. I don't really.
I hope you're not talking about me. I'll talk about whoever the hell I want to talk about. And if you don't like it, just sit there and be quiet or read.
I have never stolen anything. Watch this, Justin. He goes up to the cash register, rings up no sale, puts money in a drawer, counts out change, takes change out, gives it to the customers. And any money that they put in a drawer that they didn't ring winds up in their pocket. That's the way bartenders steal. Now, this is the most blatant bartender theft I have ever seen. Your daughter, you can talk and talk and talk.
I don't steal.
I got it on video.
Really?
Watch this drawer opens, no sale. Money right in their pocket and walk away. Either you guys know exactly what you're doing and you're stealing, or you're so ignorant that you have no systems to protect his money. So there's no accountability. They ring no sale. They put tip money in, they take tip money out. They put bar money in, they take bar money out, they put the bar money on the tip table, the tip goes in the. This is unbelievable. If you don't know what the dollar should be, how the hell can you figure out if they're there? Let's say I sell you $20 worth of drinks. You give me $20, I go to the register, I get no sale. Put the 20 in the drawer. The drawer now owes me $20, doesn't it? Now there's money in a drawer that's unaccounted for. At the end of the night, they take that money out and put it in their pocket. That's why a no sale ring is.
