"  Not only did the owner of a Florida restaurant, called Barducci&amp;#039;s Italian Bistro &amp;amp;amp; Pizza, fire his employees on the 4th of July, but he did so via text message. According to WFTV, Gregory Kennedy wrote messages to his staff such as, &amp;quot;Jody, I unfortunately need to inform you that I have been forced to close Barducci&amp;#039;s effective immediately.&amp;quot; He apparently sent similar texts to at least 12 different employees who still haven&amp;#039;t received their final paychecks. In yet another text message to a WFTV reporter, Kennedy wrote about the situation, &amp;quot;Unfortunately businesses are forced to close across Orlando every day especially in the restaurant sector. I am working to resolve issues including final paychecks as quickly as possible. &amp;quot; Find more great food content on Delish:   Search for the perfect recipe from our homepage Find out the latest food news Get a recipe book to save your favorite dishes Sign up for our free newsletters Check us out on Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
