Worst part
>They are extremely corporate, and they show it. One of the worst ways is the tip system
Essentially they take 37 dollars out of your total monthly pay, and you make it back through tips that are divided at the end of the night.
If you dont make enough tips then they just add the rest on to the first paycheck of the next month
So really it's not so much actual tips as it is them paying you the money that they fucking owe you for working there.
The upside is supposed to be if you make MORE than 37 for the month in tips, then you get to keep it. This never happens

The worst part is the only person who actually "gets" the tips is the person on register,everyone actually making the food has no influence. So if you have a socially awkward retard new hire who clams up when the customer makes a joke, guess what? You're getting shit for tips that night.
This often leads to us hiring someone who specifically does register (usually a cute nice girl, or a friendly older guy)
But they literally do nothing else to help out.

My boss explained to me once that they get around it by calling it an "incentive" program on all legal documents.

So by week 2-3 you already made your money back.

I understand what they are trying to do, they just went about it all wrong.

I work at whataburger, work there for 4 years, you get profit shareing (aka, free money). As a manager i get a percent of the stores profit IF i do my job (or rather, every manager does their job). I think five guys could do that no problem, especially due to the lower labor costs associated with the store. (I only ever seen 7 of you faggots max, i run 12-14 people on dinner)

Chipotle new hire for a month.
Worked everything front of the store excluding register. So basically when you walked in I was that guy saying "Hi, Welcome to Chipotle, how may I help you?." I also did the tortilla press, salsa, rolling, etc.

First off, most of the customers we get are nice, and they're relatively well-mannered. They come in knowing what to order and know what to expect. This is Chipotle, not a Michelin-star restaurant, but it will sure as hell be better quality food than your local McDonalds. Most of our ingredients I personally vouch for (The sour cream is legit and so is our cheese). But ever since the whole shitstain incidents with our e.coli outbreak and various other fuck-ups (some due to employees' fault at a certain location, other due to the culture of management, and others not even being our fault and due to our supplier's fault but it ends up getting slapped on us, etc.), a ton of shit changed behind-the-scenes. Recipe for our steak has changed, basically it'll never be as good as it once was due to a new method of cooking it (we don't even really "cook" it, we just heat it up but we use a grill to fool you into thinking we did some fancy ass live grilling, in reality steak is all pre-cooked and packaged, as is our carnitas, barbacoa, sofritas. The only meat we actually "cook" live on the grill is our chicken).

>> No.7899909

>>7899906
to add to this. Never get our lettuce (whether it's the larger cuts of romaine that you get served in salad bowls, or the regular-sized cuts of lettuce you see at the end of the line. It's all the same shitty pre-packaged lettuce from a central producer that gets shipped to us). I don't trust the lettuce at Chipotle.


Because of the recent company fuck-ups, there's a new policy saying all employees working the line have to wash their hands once every hour (we call this "Top-of-the-hour), with this giant fucking loud alarm beeping to remind us. So even if we're in the middle of helping out a customer or getting through the dinnertime evening rush, we have to take off our gloves, wash our fucking hands, and put on a new pair of gloves (which are actually hard to put on right after washing your hands since they're still moist and at a fast-casual place like Chipotle time is literally money and wasted time means pissed off customers but hey I can't do anything about it because we don't want anymore e.coli outbreaks and shit).

Amongst other things, after a few fuck-ups we had to change up a lot of things behind the store about what goes on, and in turn the quality of our food (in my opinion) has drastically changed (because you have to balance food that tastes delicious, is safe, and is served at a reasonable time. You can't have all three, you can only pick two at a time).

>> No.7899913

>>7899909
also if you're ordering a burrito and you slap on all three salsas along with guacamole and sour cream don't expect it to be delicate and perfectly rolled. Some sauce and juices and shit will leak out and shit will get messy so you better be able to eat it with a spoon or have some napkins on hand, or just ask for the sauces to be put into side-cups next time.

Let me make something clear here. If you are underage and are trying to get away with buying alcohol, browsing for a while does not help make you look any less suspicious. 80 - 90% of people who enter a liquor store know what they want or at least some variation thereof. Aimless browsing identifies you as either one of three profile types.

1. Underage
2. Shoplifter
3. Someone who actually doesn't know what they want (rare)

Life ain't like TV, american. 99% of the time people just want to go on with their lifes with little to no issues at all.

There was only once a jerk tried to temper with an annoying client food but we rat him out to our manager and he was fired on spot. Fucking piece of shit, should be banned from working at the food industry at any position.
No client should be punished the price for your lack of maturity, personal problems or lack of morals. No matter how annoying they are, it's our job to serve them the best we can. Even if we're not doing it for the rest of our life.

Shoplifters who pretend to browse will constantly wander up and down the aisle they've chosen. Anyone who drinks knows what spirits they like and don't like so someone who wanders back and forth between vodka, scotch, rum, rye, etc will generally be watched closely.

One person could do all of that, if you hired one person to do all of those things explicitly.

>mop
This is covered by whoever's working front counter in their downtime.

Somebody has to get pulled off of line to do this and it takes half an hour minimum depending on if the garbage bags are already in the back and ready to go, if the boxes have been cut and folded for recycling, etc.

Better than the tip system I had. All our tips went into the til and was never returned. Just went straight to shareholders. On the plus side, we were allowed to tell customers this and basically tell them not to bother tipping us. Most customers would wait til a manager wasn't looking and tell me there's something under the napkin for me. Then I could sneak it in my pocket.

It's up to the discretion of the staff member on duty. I stopped phoning the police after the first few incidents. They don't give a fuck about the theft of a $20 bottle. Generally I only phoned the non-emergency line if it was a serious amount of product lost or if there was an incident of violence. Did have to phone the paramedics one time because this woman came in with the back of her skull cracked open. Probably one of the more serious incidents I ever had.

Been working part time at mcdongers since sometime last November. Turnover at this place is fucking ridiculous tho, so the only people I consistently work with are the pleasant old ladies who need to work there to live.
I work front counter, and any time a customer, usually some toothless boo radley lookin motherfucker, gets very rude or yells a lot at us, I turn into the nicest motherfucker you've ever met. Like, attentive to the point of it being kind of off putting. Really makes the motherfuckers uncomfortable. I like to think they feel bad about it for years.

I work at in n out run. Best part is the pay, you get payed for competence and I've only been working here for a couple of months now and make 12.50$ an hour. Gunna hit 13$ soon too. It's the most trustworthy place in terms of food freshness, we get shipments of produce, beef, and bread like every god damn day. Everything is deep cleaned every night and shit has to be replace on a regular basis.

The downside is customers. We obviously get a metric fuck ton of business because we let customers customize their burgers but as a result of this, all people do is complain if shit isn't exactly to their liking. It's pathetic how picky people can be. The other day someone asked for their fries to be pulled from the fryer after cooking for 45 fucking seconds. Disgusting.

I worked at Tim Hortons when I was younger. We also had a tip system. If you worked 5 hours or less, you were only entitled to $2 of the tips. So you were guaranteed $2 after a short shift, regardless. Which was sweet because we were right next door to Wendys, so I'd grab my free coffe, and get a burger with my $2 tip.
Also, if you worked more than 5 hours, you got a % of the tips. So on the weekends I'd make about $10-$15 a night. For a 14 year old kid, that was pretty fucking sweet.
They didn't take money out of our paychecks though.

She flirted but I'm 18 and give 2 fucks about cougars. So I'm fapping 10 min after we close, this is you the same time because she's usually in her office counting the cash til, so I figured I had a few minutes to release the hounds.

I worked at a Wendy's for a year I'm high school. No real stories about customers or bad food safety or anything. We never fucked with anyone's food.

We had one assistant manager who used to sometimes buy us alcohol (most of us working there were high schoolers), I think to get this one girl drunk enough to fuck him. There was also this lesbian relationship between an assistant manager who was this married, evangelical Christian and this big fat black chick. Aforementioned big fat black chick used to have sex with her God awful ugly looking white girlfriend in the bathroom at closing. Then later she would fuck the assistant manager in the managers office.

We have this one customer who never ceased to complain about our pizza for retarded reasons. She'd complain about the shape, smell, an how close toppings are to each other (two pieces of sausage out of all the pieces in the pizza were too close together). She was the only customer that complained and usually got a free pizza after eating half of the original. Eventually my manager got sick of her and banned her. Next day get a call and we take the order like normal. When it's time to deliver it I check the address, I was sure it was that bitch's address. It was under a different name though. Shift leader said it wasn't the same bitch and to take it. I got to the same house I've deliverd to many times before and the same woman came out to pay. Later we got a complaint and we denied her the free pizza. She literally thought she could get away with it.

Used to work at Panera Bread.

Extremely corporate, we get tons of produce coming in and managers made us throw anything that is past 2 days old, tons of waste which is pretty ironic considering we gave the leftover bread and pastries to a local charity every night.

All the soups, pastas and meats come frozen and just get reheated in a soup warmer. Mac and cheese used to be alright despite being frozen because we thawed them in the soup warmer but once they introduced pastas in the menu we were just instructed to microwave everything. I didn't work as a baker but I'm pretty sure all their dough for pastries and bread came frozen too, never seen flour or yeast around there. Pretty ironic again since it presents itself as some kind of "healthy and fresh" kind of chain and having customers telling me to send compliments to the chef for their meal was pretty disheartening.

Any tips we received were to be put in a donation box. Call the people who work food service industry jobs entitled all you want, but there was not a lot of incentive to provide great service knowing that there is such a strong corporate tight grip with their rules coupled with the fact that tipping was discouraged to customers.

kind of a late reply so not sure if you'll read this but my advice:

handling the tortilla station will be one of the easier tasks. you'll get accustomed to multitasking, making orders, talking to customers, communicating to your grill, etc. each location has different terminology and a different way they do things, learn the culture of the specific place you were hired (etc see how workers like to roll the burrito, what they use to clean the counters, how they dump food into pans and switch the pans etc). after a while, you'll pick up on things really fast and have your own style.
front-of-the-house has tortilla, salsa (which includes rolling burritos which takes some time to practice with), and that's it. make sure you communicate with your grill to accommodate for any lunchtime rush, e.g. in busier times ask for more chicken when the pan is half-full. you'll get the hang of knowing which items are usually always in demand (white rice, chicken, steak) and which items almost never need to be refilled (sofritas).

I didn't work grill or prep but if you're on those two stations you don't usually communicate with customers as much, so it's nice to be by yourself and zone out but you still gotta pay attention to how much food is left and stuff.

general advice, this is just a temporary job (most likely) and you will most likely not be seeking internal promotion (unless you're in it for the long-run e.g. 6+ months or more). so treat every encounter as an opportunity to learn, you'll meet different types of people but the common theme is that most of them are hungry human beings. do your job and know how to control the crowd (customers can really sense and pick up on fast-food workers energy levels).

imagine if you were a customer and seeing it from their perspective. what kind of experience would you like to provide them?

also putting guacamole into portion cups is a bigger bitch than you realize. you will need a lot of napkins your first time. it's better to over-portion than it is to under-portion (but depending on if your manager is around and sees you, you may have to be more strict about portion sizes). meat is the only thing you can't over-portion, and if customers ask, show them our legit portion size (The container cup). quesaritos aren't a common thing to be asked for, but you want to make sure you take it out at the bare minimum as soon as the cheese is starting to melt (not fully melted). anytime you make a quesadilla or quesarito, take it out before the cheese is melting or fully melted. it'll melt on its own. nobody wants cooked solid cheese. use two gloves so you can take off one when it gets slow and you need to clean around the counter and stuff.

The cook time is way more, but that actually means less work for you. You just throw that shit in the fryer and let it sit for 3 minutes and management can't bitch at you.

Burgers come up in about 20 seconds, so if you get a big order of burgers, it's gonna be go time for however long it takes to make them. Plus with the McChicken, it's just a handful of lettuce and a squirt of mayo. With the burgers, you got to fiddle around with the sticky cheese, a shot of ketchup and mustard and pickles and onions.

Customer here.

Back when Domino's implemented their 5.99 sides thing, I discovered that I could actually just order both items as pizzas and the coupon would allow me to avoid any extra costs from adding strange and numerous toppings. Normally the price ramps up if you start to add double or triple, or you have more than one premium topping, but they charged me nothing.

I could essentially do triple beef, triple bacon, triple cheese and similar combinations and I did this many times while low on money and time just to get as many calories as possible. (it comes out to about 5000 calories--about 12 meals--for $15 including delivery)

Now I have to ask: how mad at me were the staff? I must have ordered a dozen pizzas over 3 months or so that would have cost 19.99 and paid $5 instead. I know the ingredients I ordered might not have actually been worth twenty bucks to the manager, but I'm pretty sure they were selling this at a loss because they were heavy and thick as all hell. The delivery guys acted pretty warmly as they got to recognize me, and I never saw anything off with the pizzas, so did they not know or did they just not care?

It was a very convenient way to eat lunch, but I can't shake the feeling that somebody out there is mad at me. Am I wrong? They eventually noticed the problem and changed how the coupon works, so somebody was upset. Were a lot of other people taking advantage too?

Why would fast food employees be mad at you for gaming the system? When I worked at a chain I loved it when customers did that as long as they were friendly. Not my money. Not my boss's money. The company was still making a profit. You underestimate how cheap those ingredients really are.

Sometimes we'd get some old lady who legitimately thought she was smarter than us, I didn't like that so much because she was also rude.

>> No.7921054 [DELETED]

One other thing - there's a huge difference between gaming the system within the letter of the rules, and actually pressuring an employee to break rules for you. That's uncool, they would be mad at you for that. But using computer coupon codes? No one gives a shit.
