Wurst Biergarten owner accused of taking employee tips in Department of Labor complaint

By ADAM DAIGLE | Acadiana Business Editor​ ​ ​

Good Monday morning, Acadiana. Let's get down to business this morning to start off your week right.

Two former employees of The Wurst Biergarten have accused the business's owner of pocketing a portion of his bartenders' tips. Christian Colton, who worked at the downtown bar for about nine weeks, said he filed a complaint over the business practice with the United States Department of Labor.

Colton, 31, and his former co-worker, Katie Slattery, 39, said business owner Carey McCue required his bartenders to split tips with him equally.

You can read that story here.

Have a great day and see you back here Tuesday morning.
