The Albion, Epsom

All I can say is THANK GOD THIS PLACE IS CLOSED DOWN.

As a previous young female employee, I can tell you what everyone has said about this pub is true.

The kind of clientale they accepted into the pub was disgusting, and the behaviour that they LET THEM enflict on each other and the bar staff (who actually arent that bad) is just plain bad.

From my experioence workign there, as a young female who is classy and never been in trouble with the police, the abuse I got from working there was riduclous.

For example, I was paid below minium wage - around 3 pounds an hour, completely exploited because there was no other work in epsom at the time.

I was reguarly shouted at, threatened and harrassed by the type of people that came into the pub. Had a bottle thrown at me, a fellow bar staff member was stabbed infront of me! and the worst thing of all is the customers got AWARDED for this behaviour, in one instance, one woman and man decided to get behind the bar and steal alcohol when I came down and told them to get out, got given shouting abuse, and threats. Instead of one of the owners kicking these obvious trouble makers out -APOLOGIZED FOR MY BEHAVIOUR, and gave them a free drink to go with the alcxohol they just stole. I quit that day. Was the worst Job I ever have had.

This pub needs to be burnt to the groud.
