Two more Golden Krust employees sue company

There are reports in the United States that two more former employees of the Golden Krust restaurant chain have filed legal action against the company claiming they were denied overtime pay.

The New York Daily News reports that the lawsuit was filed in Manhattan Federal Court on Thursday, days after the company’s former chief executive officer Lowell Hawthorne committed suicide.

The newspaper says the two former employees, William Anderson and Sixto Ramirez, are alleging that Golden Krust routinely deny its workers overtime pay.

The complaint also seeks class-action status and is the third such claim filed against the company.

Hawthorne, who was born and raised in Jamaica, reportedly shot himself inside his company’s main office in the Bronx last Saturday.

He was widely hailed as an American success story and has gained international recognition after helping to grow the Golden Krust chain from one store in the state of New York to 120 stores across nine states.

 
Gold Krust food is ight and their patties arnt good at all. Same kind of generic frozen shit you can find at any supermarket freezer.

Wonder what kinda personal stuff was going on, that he felt the need to off himself tho.

You should've posted about him instead of waiting for someone else, crying-ass nigga. I never even heard of him until today.

Sounds like a terrible end to a good story, though. It looks like he was about his shit and was only going higher smh.

Nigga, I gave him props. I said you need to puy shit on notice if you want it to be seen.
 
I hit up a Krust couple times a month but truefully the mom and pops stores in NYC are shitting on them as far as quality and price.

I can see how they made it world wide tho

Maybe the IC is not giving him his full respect because he was Jamaican you know some blacks don't like " other" blacks especially when they make lots of money or create some shit valuable

You emotional thugs kill me. I dont give a fuck how you try and spin this, I'm not blindly supporting anyone whos product i consider mediocre or sub-par, IDGAF if we the same color. And this is coming from another Jamaican.

If you open a restaurant in Jamaica and your food sucks no one is entertaining that fuckery except for maybe stupid tourists. We do what normal people do and go to another Jamaican restaurant thats also black owned and has their shit together.

Anytime you post something on here and we don't take it as the word of God and blindly follow, you wanna throw a hissyfit. Calm your duck ass down.

I wouldn't say he gets no love. Didn't know of him until the news unfortunately but followed the story since it came out, and been eating Golden Krust from a long time ago.

Definitely a story of Black excellence with a fucked up ending. R.I.P.

I still eat at Golden Krust even though it's not the greatest Jamaican restaurant.

It's the sad truth some blacks don't like blacks from other nationalities doing good niggas expect you to stay a poor bum fuck immigrant .... it's pure bad mind. I am not saying it's always like this but sometimes it is. Maybe my choice of words was wrong maybe it's not a case of dislike or like, maybe sometimes the success of "other" blacks is simply downplayed because if you shine too bright it's bad for their political and social perspective.

because they cannot blame the white man or racism for their lack of success.
