So Disappointed in Gordon Ramsey

[Nanalisa60]

Just heard the he has laid off all his 500 staff in the uk !! He has paid them until the end of April!! Why could he just not put them In forlough for 80 % of there wages which will be paid by the government. We don’t know how long this will last , people need to have hope that they have a job to go back to when this madness ends.

I really thought the Gordon was better then this !! Just so so disappointed in him!!

OP says
I really thought the Gordon was better then this !!
You can't have been paying g much attention if you think that.

He is vile on Hell's Kitchen in some bits but that's in the heat of the kitchen.

But that's what people want to see, they tune in to see 'Big sweary' in action.

Yes, I suspect a lot of it is put on for this very reason but I also imagine a lot of head chefs are like this (certainly from what I have heard) but doesn't mean they are like this all the time I guess.

@Changeofname79 are your sure your not in his PR squad? Your doing the 'identification and offering of mitigating circumstances' quite well!....

what a strange comment. No I'm just not the sort of person to be out to get someone I don't know or know all the facts about. I am not the only one on here who hasn't completely slated him. He could just be a wanker though, and if it turns out he fucked off to his 2nd home just for a nicer isolation then I won't be going to his restaurants again but just coz I don't brandish him the devil doesn't mean I have a vested interest

Your language has now also changed...

Okay, you say your not, your not...but you are using (unknowingly then) certain techniques I happen to know of ...

I havent changed anything, you are imagining something that isn't there. You clearly don't know these 'techniques' that well then. I am an accountant and never worked in PR. This is quite odd if I'm honest, I have just said it as I see it. Not sure why you have picked on me, others had said similar.

I have read back my comments and I just don't get what you are saying. I havent even been that nice about him . I am genuinely baffled, feeling slightly fragile tonight too so maybe I am taking some comments from random on the internet a bit too personally

Dont take it personally @Changeofname79 , it was just a question

Like you said, your an accountant, so how would you know about techniques used in in (forum based) PR also, or whether I knew about them, considering you dont know what they are?

I'll leave it, you say your not, your not....apologies 👍

You are still hinting that you dont believe me. I don't know what techniques you mean but was stating that you can't know them that well if you have misread what I have said to be these techniques. I'm not even sure I know what I'm saying now if I'm honest or if that makes sense!

Ah well, I would like to accept your apology but I feel you are humouring me here
Take care. Crazy times right now . . .
