    Hello all, poring-kun is here. So I just got back from my restaurant, and I want to share my story in the restaurant just now.

    We have been closed for 3 days now (usually we still open, but only from 5 PM in Ramadan), and tonight is fast breaking (buka puasa) together with my workers.

    It's pretty much a normal dinner, but it all changes when a sudden impulse hit me.
    Cast : me =me, senior workers= sw, workers = wk
    The conversation is pretty much like this :

    Me : everyone attention please. Now that you're all here, I want to say something.
    SW1 : what's the matter?
    Me : to tell you all the truth, I can't let you all works anymore in the restaurant (until Ramadan end)

    After I said that, some worker's face turned pale

    Sw1 : really?
    Me : yes. I will close the restaurant (until Ramadan end). I will pay all of your wage this month and I will pay for the tickets for all of you to go to your hometown.

    After I said that, some of the workers cried, especially the women. But some senior workers gets what I'm talking about, and rather than trying to calming the crying women, they made it even better

    SW2 : but I have family here (meaning : I'm not going to go back, I'll stay. Please give me money instead)
    Me : (not sure if he gets it or just asking) I'll give the one who stays in Jakarta money instead
    SW3 : (wink at me) sir, please, I don't have anyone, can you consider it?
    Me : (realized that some of them get it) no, it's final

    At this point, there are around 8-10 people who are crying. Some silent, some wailing. Some just standing with a blank face. One senior worker who get what I mean can't stand it anymore

    SW4 : what are you guys crying about? (Loud)
    Wk : I mean we're fired, I don't know where to look for a job anymore to pay my uny
    SW4 : what boss mean is that he is closing the restaurant until Ramadan end, and you can enjoy Ramadan with your family. So stop crying damnit

    Now they're confused

    Me : SW4, you told them too early, it's no fun
    SW3 & SW2 : that right
    SW4 : sorry, but its getting annoying to hear them cry

    After that, we resumes our dinner but with some who's still crying.

    Note : before I came back, I apologized for my joke

    Thanks for reading. Anybody have any ideas for what should I do to them next year?

    I would say you are a hard-boiled sadist mate, but you ruined it with that "Just kidding..."

    Not really related to the thread but I remember something about customers not paying. Have you already fixed that?

    Also, you shouldn't be joking with their livelihood, but, they got the money so it's okay I guess. I'll treat it as compensation.

    Tbh for over two weeks of PTO I don't think there's an employee alive who'd complain about being the victim of any number of pranks.

    Making people cry is sometimes a natural consequence of being smart

    Burn down the restaurant? Make it looks like accident, like gas leak?
