The Bean Problem
Honestly been holding this back for a while. WHY THE F*CK do people genuinely feel like the radio bean, more importantly Lee Anderson, is deserving of all the outpouring of support.
Anyone reading this remove yourself from the mindset of Lee is my friend, if that is you pretned he isn't.
How/why do people support people not getting paid on time/appropriately for years. NOTHING being cleaned, only getting a passing health inspection by luck and an EXTREMELY bad walk through not noticing multiple non functioning critical pieces ie: WORKING HOT WATER, NO FOOD TO SERVE PATEONS, legally required by law in bars BTW last i knew.
Bands checks bounce for months, they keep coming back, MASSIVE donations off the books from folks with no real transparency from Lee where money goes.
I am not a disgruntled ex-employee, I cherished the community there for many years but yall supporting this Peter pan circus shit is crazy; no accountability has been held for this dude floundering for years let him fail. Could have started a better venue with all the money people have given him and its really depressing.
I dont think I could just do it, I know there is so many moving parts and nuance but the dude took ppe grants in 202 to not buy almost any real ppe, take a month long trip to Joshua tree to "become a climber" while his employees served take out food literally for free (they barely if at all paid during this time, the food was not free) and he got to just disapear.
I could go on and on. But really why arent all these doners/ funders just starting a new space that has nothing to do with the base problem, Lee Anderson who is more interested in running a circus than a business.
