–In the last 5 years Maria Itova has been working as a chef in various restaurants in Sofia. When a state of emergency was declared last year, she was laid off to look for a safer job.
After the restaurants reopen, she returns to work in the kitchen where she last worked. Then comes the second wave. He has to rely on state aid with his family.
“400 leva for the whole period and we received them for the first time 1 week ago. We rely on this thing, I have two children who are waiting too, ”she told NOVA.
Now, with the announced new closure, Maria’s boss decides not to obey the order of the health authorities.
“We are not against the measures, we are against the distribution of aid. We paid our taxes. I do not want alms – I have invested in this country so that we can be helped at such a time “, commented the manager of the restaurant Rositsa Kutseva.
In order not to wait for help from the state, on Monday, when all restaurants close, this will work.
There will be no staff on Monday so that they are not fined. Clients will be greeted by the manager.
“I will not let the employees come on Monday, although they want to support me. I will be here and people will be here too, “she added.
The fine for establishments that operate despite the order of the Minister of Health is from 300 to 1,000 levs.
