“We held a job fair the other day. We were open from 12 to 5 p.m., and not one person came in, not one,” said Andre and Sue Williams.

We were open from 12 to 5 p.m., and not one person came in, not one," said Andre and Sue Williams.

Right now, the Williams family is forced to use those profits to cover the rent at the closed restaurants. S2 Express Grill will have a hiring event at the Harvey location at 340 E. 167th St. this Saturday from noon until 6 p.m.

What is the pay that you are willing to pay an employee other than 10 12 14 15 dollars an hour

ya and they were offering some 12 a hour bullshit for me to pickup all the slack i bet

It was dangerously cold out.. there are no visible signs that indicate job opportunity… so… another “job fair day” would be… uh, maybe a good idea?!..

Probably because they're still filing fraudulent certifications for unemployment benefits just so they can sit on their ass collect money

It was bitterly cold 🥶 maybe that had a little to do with it

It was also 12 degrees out yesterday

WHAT IS THE HOURLY RATE FOR THE POSITIONS YOU WERE TRYING TO FILL, SUE AND ANDRE?! HOW MUCH WERE YOU OFFERING

jk_ellington any idea why?

You won’t catch me eating or working in that despicable neighborhood not even with a bulletproof vest or combat pay. It would be my last job on earth, I’ll have to be lucky to dodge bullets
