Post Would it matter?

Given the general lack of caring about their business, I doubt that it would matter. I have tried to send Barbara a private email about all this, but she has not been active on the site for over a year now.

This is kind of a classic. The business gets new ownership and they lose (or don't understand the formula). The same thing happened with the "fancy".

I know that in the beginning Barbara tried to make them understand what they needed to do to be successful. It seems as though she and Bruce have washed their hands of the whole thing. It can't be lost on their management that things are not going well when people send dishes back and orders are lost. You can run a business on a temporary basis that way, but the restaurant business depends upon repeat business in the long run. Every time we go by Waldos, my wife and daughter sigh a "yuck" and we continue on our way. I don't see Waldos long for this world...sad.
