... I find doritos to be gross in general. Give me a regular chip and some fake, melted cheese. It's at least gooey and crunchy - so a texture thing. Additionally, it's warm - another perk... I'm not seeing the benefits to nasty 'nacho' doritos.

Taco Bell has timed drive through windows.

The goal is to move customers through the window as fast as possible.

To game this system, I've seen places where most patrons are instructed to pull forward and wait for their food to stop the clock, regardless of what/how much they've ordered.

What happens to a franchise with a 'slow' window?

What benefits are there?

How does corporate not know that these franchises are cheating?

>> No.5423597

>>5423594
Suprised you know this haha, franchises with slower windows just produce more lines and more frustration, benefits to these timed windows is that if you get a good pattern and have good staff, you can blow through orders all fucking day, and ummm CORPORATE ALWAYS KNOWS

OP. What do you think about Corporate now? Have you been there long enough to remember the best of the best? The Golden Bell awards? A while back, when you ran a damn good store you got to go to Hawaii every year. 5 days in a nice ass hotel, paid vouchers to use around the island. Free rental cars. My mom ran one and got to go to hawaii 4 times, and once they sent us to Cancun because we couldn't go to Hawaii at that time they gave the trip out.

I've worked at 3, but have since given up working at any food place. I never worked at my mom's store, mainly because we just don't work well together.

How hard is it to get a good fucking employee nowadays? Saturday and Sunday mornings, and sometimes during rushes we were understaffed. So I would steam, stuff, and expedite all by myself, sometimes with a little help from the second headset chicks.

I could do back to back grande meals, drop chalupas, potatoes and empanadas all while doing the 3 other jobs. I could still keep the products at the correct weight, stuffing and wrapping and STILL have good times at the bump bar. We never had people pull forward, because thats bullshit and then you have to have someone run around the counter, through the lobby, and into the lot. If you are doing it right you don't need to do that shit.

I can't fucking stand going to taco bells anymore, only 2 I will go to. It is an extremely easy job. Sometimes I would get pissed because some of other workers would hardly do shit. It doesn't take 45 minutes to prep lettuce. Back in the day when they had to shred their own lettuce, yeah. Niggas all they do is cut open a bag, drizzle some ice water on it and dump it into a deep pan, stick it and put it in the cooler.

I have seriously gotten into arguments when travelling cross country about small shit, like "no sir, a bean burrito doesn't have red sauce or onions on it. Only beans and cheese." Fuck you asshole, you used the red scoop on the beans too.

Bitch, thats a green scoop of beans, pump of red, pinch of cheese, pinch of onions. How can people fuck up a bean burrito. God dammnit.
I still eat at them though, having worked in them for years I know that it is almost impossible to fuck up and not run a decent one. Never gotten sick from one. But there are some serious fucking problems with how some cross country are ran. I would suggest corporate fucking stepped it up and start a better manager training program.

Maybe I'm just jaded because I grew up with Taco Bell, but fuck you if you can't make a damn bean burrito right.

>> No.5426232

Don't tell them you have a degree. I was desperate for a job for awhile and fucked myself by referencing my degree. If it doesn't pertain to the job you are applying to then no need to put it on the resume. Also many fast food managers don't have a college degree, why would they want someone with higher education working under them.

>> No.5426338

>>5423556
What I noticed is this.
Yes, the dorito shell has the dorito flavor but the spices from the taco just overwhelm it. You're paying for something you can't taste!

Not really 'bad' by any means but just needs more zazz. (I think they need to have the inner fillings sprinkled with a touch of doritos powder, which is actually sold!)
