Jay-Z, 40/40 Face Lawsuit From Unpaid Employees

Who cares none of them r paying me

This is another attempt at regular people trying to get paid, suckas.

Do what er body else do. Quit and get a new job.

People have a right to get paid for a job they perform. Anything else is called slavery. Black folks especially should know that. 100 people filing a class action lawsuit that is no damn accident, i can understand if it was a handful of people saying that got ripped off...but 100 that is a systematic problem. Just because it's "jay z" don't mean it ain't true....it wouldn't surprise me he ain't paying folks though, alot of big companies that have huge bankrolls always try and F*ck over people.

If my checks come up short, i`d just quit i mean its not like the 40/40 club is the only club in nyc . I would know i`m in the city all the time .

Sounds more than likely...100 people is no accident...and for the people who said they would just quit, your suckers....i guess you werent taught, dont let anybody play with your money....

If you aren't getting paid right, and instead of demanding the money you are legally entitled too you quit that is just the move of a true dumbass.

This just a way for poor people to try an get rich, think about it, you ge hired for a job, you workin and then you realize it aint what its suppose to be. You going togeta new job, why you going to continue working for a company if its not what you want. This is stupid.sounds like everyone came together and tried to rush corporate for raised and when it fell through they came up with this brilliant idea..... Lmfao

You got to realize, bartenders and waiters are normally on a whole different scale of pay then the average workers. They min. Wage be like 2 something an hour cause they work for tips. Now if they want they can turn it around an see how many of them 100 are claiming there tips on taxes, lol. Then see it all fall into place

Im sorry what ? : d

The harder it gets the more you dig your heals in ; ) x

Nigga better pay me my money, sh*t thats food getting taken away from the kids mouths

Jay-z is a little Bia'ch u ask me and another thing he needs to get sued for once.

Well jay-z has the money.. He's rich. The worker prolly didnt get enough tips and Bia'ched cuz it's jay's club

Shut the f-ck up g funk

Ey what u said m'an g funk is all over that man's nuts a ho that is and for real he is a ho ass n*gga u ask me.

Ey g funk have u heard of ezekiel 25:17 in da scripture of da bible it says i will execute great vengeance on them with furious rebukes; and they shall know i am the lord, when i lay my vengeance upon them ...................................that sh*t right will be my vengeance upon ur azz n*gga and his rich u know i got say F*ck rich people cause they can suck my tip Bia'ch azz n*gga.

It is a very common result of many large corporations to have these kind of problems arise. I know. I work for walmart and some lawsuits have risen from certain actions done or not done there. Just because it is jay z does excuse the validity of the claim, and although they ( the 40/40 club) have not been served with physical paperwork does not mean that it not a lawsuit that will not be persued. As for some of the comments that some made about quitting if not paid appropriately, i strongly disagree with that. You should immediately bring it to you supervisor's attention the mishap with your check and get it rectified immediately in a mature and professional manner. Most times it is an oversite that can be fixed quite readily.

thats funny bcause ya favorite rappers throw crazy parties all the time at the club and these does don't get paid sombdy lyn

"can't even steal on nicka; mothertruckers will sue . . ."

I used to work there and they didn't pay minimum wage, just tips(which were awful). No one deserves to be treated as disrespectful as the employees there are. 4040 should have to follow the same laws as everyone else. You people that are blaming the employees are completely ignorant. Its not their fault that they are being treated illegally

It does not suprise me that 40/40 would be doing this. Thats how hip-hop is now..raping the people. 100 employees? oh yeah, there definitely is some stiffing of employees since everyone is star struck working there. Lol you gotta be a sucker for working there unless you have real juice or connects to get paid!

My friends and i went to 40/40 and were shocked to see that there were very few black employees there. The staff was mainly white and hispanic. You would think jay-z (a black man) would you use his fortune to help his own out but apparently he hasn't. You won't catch me or any of my friends there again ever!!! jay-z's a sell-out!!

Oops, made a typo. Meant to say,"you would think jay-z would use his fortune" etc., not would you use!! lol

I worked at 40/40 and they never paid for overtime and we went hours without breaks. Good for them!

I think thats unfair if he is really doing that....he should know that black people are trying to get over the slavery times and here is he bringing it back...why not pay someone who has work for you?...thats total unfair there could be some folks with family depending on that cheque...happs as he is flossing all the good stuff and all that while there are some people who make you rich get hungry thats depressing

Just because that's jay z club doesnt mean that he has to treat folks like that....can he feel sorry for the workers who work hard in the club and give him all that money that he is proud of....i really think he would feel bad to hear one of the family member or a relative being treated like that so why would he do that?....why would you let your workerd depend on the tips n make them pay the broken bottles?...thats so humiliating....the law should do this ...and it should protect the workers
