My initial concern is in regards to any remaining hot dogs during closing are unwrapped and stored in the freezer over night for the next day.

What should I do?

Can Health Department Kick you out of house? Our septic tank has issues and overflows. It overflows due to our field lines being under natural water. Well our local Health Department has been called to our house several times due to it over flowing into our neighbors yard. We have already spent about 3000 dollars just pumping the thing. And we have been told that it would cost us atleast 20k just to have a private sewer put in. We were told today to connect to the sewer in ten days to fix the problem and I have told them that we don't have the money as well. Can the Health Department kick us out of our house if we dont connect to sewer in ten days like they want us to? Ok I guess I need to add some detail... the Health Department knows about the natural water and stuff and has told us all they can do is tell us to keep pumping it every month. Who can afford 250 a month for pumping something. We've gone to lawyers and everything and all they can say is to keep pumping it as well until you find something else. Its like we've done all that we could and now we are just stuck in this rock and hard place. We'll we've been given on ten days and have ten days to come up with 5000 bucks. And that is going to connect us to the sewer so that would fix the problem. The health department guy said that the only way the ten days are going to be exteneded is if we are doing something to correct the problem. the only two things we are working on right now which should extend the issues is the easement for the neighbors and money. So fingers crossed!

We took it back and the little chinese lady the runs the restaurant argued with us that it was beef and that we were wrong, no matter how much we told her that it wasn't right.
