“I feel like I’m sending emails to myself,” he said. “This is all one-sided emails I’ve been sending him. Now it’s been like four and a half months. He never texted us back, just a courtesy message he sent to us in the [WhatsApp] group that said ‘hey, guys hope you’re well, I was a bit sick. Now let’s figure out a payment plan’.” Yet the staff say they haven’t been contacted since.

A spokeswoman for the Fair Work Ombudsman confirmed it was investigating the company that ran the popular pizza parlour. Three hospitality companies Zeidan served as director of – 5 Ships at Sea , The Umpire Strikes Back and 4 Ships at Sea – went into liquidation between August 2018 and December 2019.The Grace Darling, in Smith Street, Collingwood, and Lazerpig, also in Smith Street, continued to trade under new ownership structures.
