I would say sorry,
but the guy has made his "thing" about taking the piss and being generally vitriolic about most people on here and not in a lol banter type of way. I would have some shred of sympathy if he hadn't targeted some personal friends of mine, myself and my wife (via gaz), but I'm not going to shred any crocodile tears about it just because he was a reasonably prolific contributor to a silly web based forum. He's shown no sympathy or empathy to anyone on here in the past and while I hope he does make a recovery, his bile won't be missed.

If i can give you one great tip.
If you want the staff on side, when you line clean the lagers each week, do it after shift, and do it the long way, and invite staff to stick around and drink the couple of pints off each line you get as wastage. I've done it at every pub, and after a few weeks, it really helps build a team atmosphere, place for you to get to know them off the clock, giving them free beer discourages stealing as they know you're lettong them reap the benefits rather than pouring it away, and also, they will often air problems, or requests or sometimes great ideas in that relaxed environment that they wouldn't normally put forward. But make sure you invite kitchen staff as well, even if they never turn up just offering makes them feel included. Do not allow regulars to stay, kills the staff only vibes, but do allow staff to occasionally invite a friend. Easiest way to be good boss ever,

Bring it up by mentioning that you're aware snacks were previously free,
And say that it's no longer the case, at least until you're settled and sort out affordable staff allowances. Make sure you set Down some allowances in their favour mind. Draught coke costs peanuts, might be worth letting them have that

Then you can charge them retail rather than wholesale.
