Will not use him again...

Made our manager extremely uncomfortable among other things. Any money collected was to be donated to our food pantry. The last day of the event, the manager had to go through the whole village to find him. He was in a shop, and she asked him for the money. He said he didn't believe she was the manager and insisted on walking to the safe with her. Not at all ok...

I collected all the money from both days. With all of the minors around who also worked there. I couldn’t trust any of them with a large amount of money. I had no way of contacting the person in charge as I was hired through someone else who previously worked there. I looked for the lady in charge and she suggested to putting the money in the safe until the next day. The lady who said she was the manager seemed young but who am I to judge. I looked for someone to give the money to but the place is so large. The place was closed when the event was done and no one was around. Given the time they had to post a review. The event ended on the 16th of July and they left a review today, August 10th. Was the review really fair? I’ll let you decide.
