"All women's college. They have a few maintenance issues, and the cafeteria is not good, according to my daughter."
"Where do I start… ok, before thanksgiving they didn’t even have water or hot water to run a kitchen for a college!!! The hood system in the kitchen doesn’t work, which is a safety and a health issue… not only is it unsafe for staff, but for the students… when the chemicals go up, they must come down… straight in… the students food… I am a disgruntle employee and I am calling out everyone… scrub your refrigerators… there is black mold… fix your exhaust fans in the kitchen… stop serving gluten-free pizzas when they are not… and ZACK!!! You’re lucky I don’t call you out!!! Your girl would be mad!!! Just saying!!! Should I keep going?!?!?"
