Either one or both of them is lying.
Santamaria said in an interview that Floyd worked there less than a year over the last year and only part-time.
She also said Chauvin stayed outside in his police car during his shifts.

The club's former owner, Maya Santamaria, had connected Pinney with CBS News. "She specifically said she was unable to give detail information about George because she did not have a close relationship with him as I did," Pinney said in the email. He said that led to his mistake.
Pinney had also described Chauvin as "extremely aggressive within the club," a characterization he stands by.
"I knew George on a work basis," he said. "We were pretty close. When it came to our security positions, he was in charge and I worked directly below him as a security adviser."
Pinney said he worked with Floyd for about five or six months in late 2015 and early 2016.
