5 Guys Shop Canellations

Hi, just curious if anyone else got emails today from the MSC saying that their previously scheduled 5 Guys shop had been cancelled. I had 2 already scheduled for August, and both were cancelled, which is a bit concerning. The email gave very few details other than saying it "was caused by internal operational necessity."

Yeah, they were for the next 2 weekends, so 8/7 and 8/14.
They have other shops listed for dates later in August, so I wouldn't get too concerned (yet).
strange: they listed shops up to 8/16 in my area.

occassionaly 5 guys making stores renovations. Maybe they doing so for your stores.

I had July 31 that was cancelled for same reason. I'm not concerned.
@tigerdave

You seriously are worried about base pay 5 guys shops being cancelled? There are plenty each week.
Count your blessings about being canceled between the low pay and health risks of eating their unhealthy garbage food you are blessed to have been cancelled.

I get that, but in this case, they currently don't have any August shops listed in my area beyond 8/3. My concern was that they had lost the client.
I see plenty of 5 G shops available, all the way up to August 17th. It looks like they have not gone anyplace and are unfortunately still with the same MSC.

It is against the forum policy to name both MSC and Client in the same thread. Naming the initials of a well known MSC is considered the same as naming the MSC.

You say "unfortunately"...but what MSC would you rather see them with? The current MSC has a pretty aggressive bonus plan and shops regularly get to $20 or more. You want them with Mercantile, ACL, or another NO paying or very low paying company?
I love the Five Guys with the current MSC as well! I love the bonuses, and I general do several each week. Now, I don’t eat all the food like that, but I’ll nibble on it. I sometimes bring the beef patties with onions, peppers, and jalapeños home and make chili with them later on. They freeze well ????. I just add a can of diced tomatoes and some additional seasonings. I usually get three servings out of one! Tasty! Frugal!

I've been picking up late night dinners for $40 to $50 per shop in the last couple weeks. I certainly don't mind a 10 mile drive for that kind of money. I don't take them at base ever.
Ummm…
Sorry about the four post! It wasn’t “taking” so I had copy and pasted it
So it DID “take” four times. Haha
I so like 5Gs chili!
