To
Whom
it
may
concern,
My
wife
and
I
worked
in
the
bar
for
every
opera
that
was
held
in
July
2022.
Now,
it's
August
13,
2022,
and
we
still
haven't
been
paid.
We
hosted
opera
guests,
donors,
and
much
of
the
cast.
We
are
all
aware
of
what's
going
on
with
Patrick
saying
that
he
hasn't
been
paid
and
Pamela
saying
Patrick
owes
$26,000.
I
am
sure
that
all
the
opera
cast
have
been
paid.
I
am
aware
that
my
wife
and
I
were
hired
by
Patrick
and
should
be
paid
by
Patrick.
I
am
shocked
that
the
governing
body
of
the
opera
would
let
this
issue
fly
by
with
the
simple
belief
that
this
is
Patrick's
problem.
It's
obvious
Patrick
doesn't
have
the
money
to
pay
us.
It's
a
fact
that
we
weren't
paid.
Also,
it's
a
fact
that
the
opera
generates
most
of
its
revenue
from
donations
and
the
opera
could
pay
two
individuals
that
worked
hard
for
them.
Its
a
shame
that
adults
could
watch
this
foolishness
go
on
and
not
have
something
done
about
it.
Today,
everyone
was
enjoying
Madam
Lou
Bunch
Day
and
everyone
knew
of
the
situation
and
nobody
had
the
heart
to
offer
us
a
drink
or
maybe
a
bite
to
eat(
I
made
it
very
clear
that
we
are
completely
broke
until
someone
pays
us)
Nobody,
in
their
right
mind
should
be
ok
with
this.
This
is
my
last
semester
in
college
and
this
experience
has
taught
me
a
valuable
lesson.
I
will
strive
for
the
rest
of
my
career
to
never
let
someone
that
has
worked
not
get
paid.
In
my
opinion
nobody
with
any
class
or
decency
as
a
human
would
be
ok
with
this.
I
have
reached
out
to
Tom
Martino
for
help
with
this
situation.
I
am
in
the
process
of
contacting
each
and
every
donor
from
"name
a
fund"
to
"general
endowment
fund"!
I
believe
Tom
Martino's
interns
are
helping
with
that.
Overall,
I
am
disappointed
with
the
lack
of
care
and
professionalism
exhibited
by
the
Central
City
Opera.
I
hope
that
the
governing
body
feels
good
about
themselves
and
that
maybe
this
will
teach
all
of
us
a
lesson.
I
have
never
been
in
a
position
of
hopelessness
where
my
peers
had
no
concern
whatsoever
of
my
wellbeing.
I
cant
wait
for
this
to
conclude!
Free
Labor,
Michael
&
