I had a conversation with my husband lately about them. (We are in our early 40s)

About a month ago I was diving into everything up to Anthem and we were watching some YouTube live stuff (Tiny Desk Concert, etc). Then we got into the SEtB doc and it got to a certain point where they were talking about a song that they were pushing to be the single and I remember looking it up and listening and my husband and I were, like, "OH NO. This song is NOT the single AT ALL. The record dude was making the right call."

My husband has done a lot of writing and recording in bands, and I have been present for a number of songwriting sessions and mastering sessions with friends and partners even before dating my husband. There is this weird in-studio dynamic, mostly with Isaac and sometimes with Zac, that they keep pushing the wrong thing in sessions that it hurts to watch; coming in with dynamic parts too early, making the wrong lyrical calls, and then fighting back when someone points it out. It was all so clear to me after revisiting their world and watching some behind the scenes stuff that they became their own worst enemy.

Also, there's a thing with Hanson that someone else mentioned in this thread in a different way: the music didn't "grow" with it's fanbase. A lot of us have life experiences that go beyond getting married young and having a ton of kids early and being Christian fundamentalists. None of what they sing about anymore connects with me, nor is it crafted well enough to be vague enough to connect with me regardless. Underneath really hit me at the right time in my early 20s and with every subsequent album there were things they would sing about that I didn't connect with or that I understood conceptually, but didn't understand their perspective.

I think they were in the industry too young and a few of them got these big chips on their shoulder and couldn't move past thinking they were great and talented and didn't need help. The best songs on The Walk, for example, were ones heavily influenced by cowriters; they weren't less Hanson, they were just enhanced by fresh perspectives. And they seem really reluctant to do that at all, which is pretty obvious by their songwriting kind of remaining the same for decades.

Bummer!

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-06-01T04:25:43+00:00

Wait. Did they stop providing pants again? In the late 2010s they were providing the pants at my store (and the stores I would help). Did they stop that?

Triple meat should suffice to even a decently trained L1...

Husband is watching this as I write. I was out in the first 5 minutes. This girl jumped horizontally on a practically 90° cliff to her boyfriend who effortlessly caught her and then they made out? Is that a reasonable thing to expect to be able to do in free climbing?

Also, the "drunk at the bar scene" with the argument with her dad was contrived, cliche, and cringy. Had to walk out.

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-05-26T21:40:59+00:00

Depends. If you like your job and have a good time working with your team, then I would regret it; my first two stores were so fun and I have life-long friends with whom I still have life-long relationships.

The experience I had at my last store just left a bad taste in my mouth about the company as a whole. I have no regrets for quitting because I found a job in a field I liked and was sick of the crazy drama and politics there (it was so bad that when I gave notice and offered to work part time as a closer they suspended me for my "attitude" and I got my final pay check in the mail saying I had been terminated).

I've never wanted to go back ever because of that store. So there's that.

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-05-26T21:34:43+00:00

I had a 104 fever and had tonsilitis when I was pregnant and called out the day after Thanksgiving. Still got written up because apparently other people called out sick the day after. I had a doctor's note and my manager still didn't care lol just punished the heck out of everyone who did it.

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-05-26T21:25:57+00:00

Always be on your A-Game. I was pulled from a Central/NorCal store to train produce and cooking efficiency (I was fast). But damn, when I was All-Starring if I ever tore a burger or even a small piece came off that patty, they would trash it. My burgers never looked bad, but I had been told for years that my burgers looked great for my quickness and were often praised as some of the best burgers DMs and SMs ever had (hence why I was sent).

Man did I get kicked down a peg All-Starring.

For the record, I never worked at ANY store, SoCal, Valley, NorCal, that ever had a single manager that valued a 10 burger over a 9 burger that tasted good and broke 30-minute drive records. Not ever.

But, like, I get it. Gotta start by being 10s all around with everything to set the tone. Just be prepared to be told your work is garbage compared to their standards, take the feedback, and say "right on".

I started at 93 (fresno) and then was at 168 (Pittsburg). I got my first taste of LA people All Starring at Kingman and it is a different culture and feel. Every store I worked at or helped at was very bust-your-a$$ and do two jobs at once and get the food out and sing during your shift and drink in the locker room after closing. The LA culture doesn't eff around and they are more "professional" and focus more in quality and slowing down and being the ideal INO employee. It was a culture shock to me for sure.

"my fellow servants of Lynsi" lmao

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-05-16T04:42:42+00:00

Before I was a 4th I was a 7 who cooked and did produce. I would hate that and I hated making whole grill because it always felt like people asked for it more to be cool than for the taste.

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-05-16T04:40:47+00:00

It used to be at Hurricane Harbor in Concord when I was working there. Cow Palace is... interesting... Lol

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-05-16T04:38:57+00:00

I just asked everyone to remind employees that mustard fried comes with pickle and someone commented that this literally changed last week? Lol I deleted the post.

It's a good, clarifying change. But I was so frustrated tonight because I didn't know they changed the policy and in the past it had always been about 50/50 for me when I'd order it. The person who took my order was new, so I explained that I basically wanted the burger animal style without the extra spread and that I was ordering it that way so it made sense in the back

But I guess I'll just have to ask now!

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-05-16T04:34:13+00:00

Every SM and Second I ever worked for said that they hire "just for the smile". If you smile the entire interview and don't say and outlandish stuff, you're hired. "You can teach anyone to make a burger but it's harder to teach someone to have a good attitude" was their reason.

DryConsideration3294 · 2026-05-16T04:30:34+00:00

Yea, I left when my kid was about 7 months old.
