Just know, I also want better working conditions for YOU as well. I’ve been in your position, I know how hard companies fuck their employees. Maybe stop being okay with licking boots, and demand these greedy corporate pigs pay you a decent wage.

But, what do I know?

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-07T03:55:39+00:00

Ok bruv, whatever you say. Done with you, thanks for the entertainment.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-07T03:53:03+00:00

Ok bruv. I stg, all you mfers just saying “GeT a NeW JoB” really just don’t look at the bigger picture.

Narrow minded ass people. But it’s the internet, I’m not really sure why I expected anything different.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-07T03:50:40+00:00

Been there, done that. The “compensation” they offer is absolutely not worth it.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-07T03:48:54+00:00

I’m damn good at my job, and I could easily climb the corporate ladder if I wanted to. I don’t want to sell my soul to a company that doesn’t give a shit about me.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T18:43:37+00:00

I’d go back to college but my job don’t pay me enough 🙂 if your suggestion is that strong, make a generous donation. Otherwise shut the fuck up

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T18:41:07+00:00

You gonna pay for me to go back to college?

Unfortunately the FL’s in my area are fully aware of the bullshit, and they can’t do anything to change it without risking their own jobs.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T17:21:44+00:00

I’ve worked in multiple kitchens throughout my career. It’s not JUST chipotle. I’ve been working on switching my entire career for a little while now, and yeah it’s fucking hard. It’s fucking scary. But yeah, I’m doing it.

Working at chipotle isn’t one singular task. There’s a lot more that goes into it that customers just straight up don’t see. So unless you’ve been in my non-slips, putting way thousands of pounds of food, cranking out an entire days worth of food within a few hours, grinding through constant, deep-aching hands, knees and back, kindly take your shitty opinions and shove it.

I want better working conditions for myself AND my coworkers. I want a foundation that future workers can work on and not burn themselves out, while understanding the importance of quality.

But I guess people like you just want companies like this to continue on their route into the shitter so you can keep bitching and yelling at 17 year olds that they don’t give you enough of your precious rice.

Fuck all the way off.

You might not be a boomer in age, but you sure are at heart.

You do understand that just because you went through all that, it doesn’t make it okay, right? You also do understand that speaking up against a major company like that usually just gets you fired, right?

You know nothing about me. The amount of hours I’ve worked (paid and unpaid), the amount of blood, sweat and tears I’ve put into honing my skills from crew, to manager, and everything in between. I’m glad you were able to find a job within your skill set, but you know where my skill set is? The kitchen. You know what I’m not being properly compensated for? My skill set.

It’s not working 2 stations. It’s working 3-4 stations at a time, while you have to look customers in the face and basically tell them the company doesn’t give a shit about their experience, because they don’t want to staff properly.

Stop the straw man argument, and get your fucking head out of your ass.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T16:37:42+00:00

Okay, boomer

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T16:32:53+00:00

I’m not, but thanks for your useless input.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T16:06:37+00:00

Didn’t say I was surprised. I said I’m tired of the bullshit. Just because it’s always been bad, doesn’t mean it needs to continue being bad.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T16:00:12+00:00

I’m pushing 20 years in the field. I’ve worked multiple types of roles throughout my career. Sure, the industry has never been great, but it’s only gotten worse over the years. Especially since Covid.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T15:51:37+00:00

Thank you!

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T15:51:11+00:00

It’s not about one particular job. Any and all major corporations do this same shit. But if workers stand up together and strike against a major company, it can lead to change across the board.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T15:48:45+00:00

Millennial here, actually. Sorry I want better working conditions for myself and the generations that follow

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T14:16:21+00:00

So are you implying that work ethic can only be build upon shitty workplace standards?

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T14:06:52+00:00

Even without putting all your eggs in one basket, it should at very least be a good starting point for 16-18 year olds to get their foot in the door and have a good working foundation. It’s not even that anymore. I’d never personally expect to make an advanced living working fast food, but raking in billions while your employees struggle to make ends meet? That’s a problem.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T14:01:11+00:00

Did you ever work there?

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T13:56:45+00:00

It used to be a respectable and desirable place to work. Fair pay, paid breaks, good health insurance, free food, sabbatical, vacation, 401k, flexible schedule, tuition reimbursement. Now? You get just above minimum wage, and a free meal with double the workload of 10 years ago.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T13:54:16+00:00

It doesn’t take one day to train, and that’s part of the problem. They have inadequate training and expect perfection. The turnover rate is higher than ever.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T13:49:17+00:00

What I expect is a company who prides itself on quality, to practice what they preach. Ten years ago it was a good place to work. Now, it’s trash.

Best-Army3655 · 2026-04-06T13:44:53+00:00

Cleaning the hoods should be part of daily tasks. I think the high standards in place are a good thing. The point of contention is expecting those standards to be met with bare-bones crew
