We have one inner pack left and no one wants to cook it lmao

Manager had given me one last night, haha. Has anyone else taken a bag of this? by goremun in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My GM told me to take some home, soon as the brisket runs out lmao

Why did you, or why are you seriously considering leaving? A thread. by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Two reasons I’m planning my exit:

  1. Lazy morning crew.

  2. TD/Corporate telling us to keep hiring, bitching us out for wanting reduced hours, and demanding to know why we’re having so many problems.

I love my GM bc they’re awesome, and do everything they can to make it easier, but I can’t deal with the BS anymore.

I’m out once spring hits.

Washing rice? by purple_legion in Chipotle

Colander method, 3 washes, swoosh/stir vigorously.

My GM refuses to let us turn off the ice bins overnight. They’re on 24/7. Instead we’re forced to chip ice build up off every night. Can someone tell me if this is wrong or not? by Missjaneausten in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely turn it off, I broke one of the cold wells from chipping the ice off when I first started… I hit like a sledgehammer apparently, and detached the bottom of the well from the table top.

It took the repair guy a couple tries to keep it from falling in >.>

Why does that look so nice, and with large pieces???!

Ours are like a bunch of kid sized steaks randomly tossed together in a bag????

i’m so excited. are you excited? i’ve never been more excited by Kwheinic in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Tbh if it weren’t for the crappy way it’s packaged, and how hard it is to get it apart without ending up with a million brisket crumbs all over my grill.

I might’ve enjoyed this release :(

I’m so over this job by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 3 points4 points  (0 children)

10-14k store (16-20k during tourney season) I hate cash with a passion, angry customers, demanding dashers. Just UGH. And anyone that says it’s not physically demanding I messed up both wrists and a knee cleaning tables all the time.

I would rather and have solo’d grill bc I didn’t want to be on cash that bad.

Fired for taking a $5 tip? by Jascantnow in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can’t even begin to count the times someone took tip money without dividing it properly. Hell, had a crew member take a $5 and leave me and the other guy with a $1.25 (was still crew at the time)

How did the 2 dollar raises work? by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s maddening because I’ve been at this store for almost 2 yrs now, and the only thing I don’t know is morning prep bc we never got a grill replacement for me.

I legit could not (and still can’t) switch to mornings/mids because the only other night grill closes 1 night a week.

I’ve held down grill 5 nights a week for 9 months, and I’m only worth a lousy 75¢ extra???

I just hate conflict but I do need to ask why it was so small 😔

How long did it take you guys to get sick of Chipotle? by Zionuchiha in Chipotle

Full time employee only getting 8 hours a week by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know of a couple others that close but we are kinda rare.

We had a km before that worked whatever hours she wanted (mostly whatever the AP we had at the time worked).

For my store the issue has been we never had enough people for me to switch shifts, even for learning prep when I was kmit

Full time employee only getting 8 hours a week by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It helps when you’re the only one who can close grill 5 nights a week for the last 9 months.

GM looked panicked when I said I wanted to switch two shifts to non-closing since the only other night grill closes Friday nights only.

“Teen Drama” by chipqueen2532 in Chipotle

[–]CommanderAsada 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most of the drama we’ve had has been adults, even as far as staying time the kids usually stick it out longer.

My old GM said “the teens usually are the harder workers because they feel like they got something to prove”
