Yeah, I think the present owners aren't arsed anymore, they've made their packet and are buggering ofg. One guy I've noticed is a bloody hoover, he's forever munching, never pays, I thought it may be a staff perk.

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

I don't think they really are free tbh, I think they just help themselves.

Yes, I know that , you know that, but this way they can pretend they weren't stealing, and they know you spot things.
It saves face for them and gives you the upper hand.

No problem man.

Just be casual about it, suggest if it's easier for them, you can deduct the cost of the snacks from pay
Then you can charge them retail rather than wholesale.

Never threaten staff over pay. Ever. They take it wrong and resent you.

Just sack them.
On the spot.

Maybe the Doc should watch movie class 'Roadhouse' before starting.
