Wait, a TV show that is generating money is asking for volunteers!? Why the hell can’t they pay people to do this renovation work!? What a crock. Restaurant: Impossible and Robert Irvin and the production company are a bunch of cheapskates. Pay people for honest labor.
We are sorry you feel this way. It is an opportunity to work with Robert Irvine and his team. Not everything is about money. You are welcome to not apply..
“Not everything is about money.” You can’t be serious with this reply. This production company is asking for volunteers to do considerable, time-consuming labor that in most circumstances would be done by licensed and bonded contractors/individuals…just for the benefit of raising Robert Irvine’s profile?
Guess that’s why the show’s called “Restaurant Impossible”. Disappointing to read, but that reply. Do you write blog posts for this website under the same consideration that “not everything is about money”?
The show is also about helping a struggling restaurant. A community comes together to help revitalize a Mom and Pop business that could use a boost. Have you ever seen the show?
