First of all let me explain that IHOP has nothing to do with the staff and can't tell the owner what to do or how to manage his or their employees. Second and last, if the employees are being treated unfairly and you have proof and documentation and you may be able to to file a complaint with the labor board or even file a law suite. There is always a third choice, quit and more on to another job. There are plenty of jobs out for those who are willing to work hard.
