Given the recent issues regarding this long time restaurant chain and their continues commitment to mystery shopping.... Is it a violation of independent contractor agreements to reach out to them about the mess of one of their primary vendors leaving all of us high and dry? We are consumers as well and while each of the MPSA members have their lawyers and agreements to protect them, who represents us?
More to the point, now that they have redistributed that to at least two other large MSC's, which most of us also have relationships with, would such contact violate those agreements even if the issue is on a matter not directly related to them?
Many of us are casting about for who can compensate us for our hard work and the only entity with deep pockets seems to be Papa John's itself who failed to do due diligence in selecting a vendor that was not financially stable and has caused reputational harm to Papa John's by failing to fulfill the obligations to their vendors. Surely this is worth a discussion on this forum.
