When I first saw this story, the bland headline (“Frederick Doughnut Shop Workers Say Business Shut Down Without Paying Them”) did not prepare me for the wonderfulness I would ultimately find:
A doughnut shop in Frederick, Maryland, abruptly shut down last week, and workers said they’re owed weeks in pay.
Glory Doughnuts & Diner on W. Patrick Street felt like home, its employees said. That all changed early Friday; the landlord shut the shop down over months of unpaid rent.
Without warning, 10 people were out of a job. They said they knew the business had been struggling, and some hadn’t been paid for several pay periods.
“They had us working when they didn’t know if they were ever going to be able to pay us,” former general manager Kiska Greenberg said Monday.
Ex-employee Shelby Turner said she was disappointed.
“I really cared for them. I felt like they were part of the family,” Turner said. Her paychecks began to bounce in recent months, she said.

You can ignore reality, but you cannot ignore the consequences of ignoring reality.
Love Krispy Kreme!
Very eloquent.
I only patronized a BLM sign wearing store once, and that’s cause I had a gift certificate and wanted to use it up. It would have helped them if I hadn’t, so.
FREDNECK ping.
The employees went weeks without pay, so they knew that there were problems. Missing one paycheck would be a hint. Missing two or more would be a huge red flag and a warning to update your resume.
Vegan donuts? Nah. Give me old fashioned all meat donuts.
I’ve made them before; if they’re not done JUST RIGHT... You end up with gooey. There is a skill to it, to an extent.
LOL, it’s been so long since “why” questions were answered, I forgot about that one!
*puke*
who would eat anything those things prepared?
probably get monkey pox!
I agree. Tasty when it's done right and fresh.
Alissa says the salted Earl Grey and raspberry tiramisu doughnuts are “last-meal worthy,” while Keirsten loves a more traditional frosted flavor. “Whenever we make the strawberry-frosted, I have to have it,” she said.

They better have been keeping up with the payroll taxes on those ten employees. If not uncle gonna twist their titties.
My bankruptcy came gradually, then suddenly.
Every donut was guaranteed to have been sprinkled. Don’t ask what with.
“ I only patronized a BLM sign wearing store once, and that’s cause I had a gift certificate and wanted to use it up. It would have helped them if I hadn’t, so.”
You should have walked over to their trash can and dropped your stuff in it. On second thought they probably would have dug it out of the trash abd resold it.
Ooooooh. Icky poo-poo!
