Businesses that behaved badly during the crisis

    I see a lot of anger about the behaviour of the Supermacs owners, plenty of other businesses where profiteering during this crisis, how about we name and shame the despicable behaviour of certain businesses and then we can choose if we should give them out patronage once Covid-19 has passed.
    Remember one of the most successful forms of protest was born in Ireland with the Boycott, well lets get a modern version going with the name and shame, and then you can choose.

    Name and shame is a ridicules idea. Never bodes well.

    Very subjective and wide open to libel.

    Don't get the criticism of Pat McDonagh to be honest.

    Don't think Supermacs behaved badly.

    He was dead right - ridiculous to give the €350 to those working a few hours a week. It should have been adjusted after a couple of weeks when those anomalies were identified

    Supermacs did nothing wrong.

    Pat McDonagh was in an article back in march. It was about his plans for expansion and making more profit. The timing was terrible as people were starting to die of covid in Ireland.
    Just recently he stated that employees who got the 350 payment had won the lottery, basically to lazy to come back to supermacs for below min wage. Yes I said below min wage. He charges employees to clean the cloths they ware and take food allowance even if you dont want to eat unhealthy food every day.
