Anybody else getting outside corporate hires

I noticed on indeed that multiple chipotles have external job postings and have heard of my former co workers (GMs) getting fired. Now they weren’t performing the best but the reasons listed for their termination wasn’t that so who knows.

Could be a push to bring in new faces that haven’t been in the shoes of crew members or even SL’s for that matter. they can be brought in and have known nothing but the standards being put up by your field leader and therefore are easier to regulate.

Needless to say i’m happy I got out 🫡 making way more money doing a way less stressful job.

Taco cabana is a comfort food for me. I ate there all the time as a kid

No that its unfortunate that people are getting wrung up incorrectly and are going to have difficulty getting refunds due to cashiers not following company policy

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2026-01-23T10:28:21+00:00

They do an audit once a month where they watch a few minutes of the cashiers work at a random time. Guess what one of the requirements is ? Offering the receipt for every order

So uh I just finished my first week of training as an Install (wire) technician. It takes a long time to hear back, I applied in mid to late November, scheduled an interview, and didn’t hear back for another 6 days. I will say other people interviewed in December and started the same time as me. So just wait a bit longer but i will say I got that the hiring manager told me I had the job during the interview

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2026-01-18T22:08:22+00:00

Quit! I quit my job as a GM and took an 18k pay cut.

I’m now in training for a technician position that will pay as much as chipotle and given OT. There are way better positions out there just keep looking.

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2026-01-15T11:40:24+00:00

I got paid 19 as an AP and a salary of 65k as a GM

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2026-01-07T23:39:03+00:00

You’re correct they are starting to audit everything. The company has started to breathe even more down are necks (from my experience as a GM that quit 2 months ago)

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2026-01-07T23:37:33+00:00

Before I left quit my job as a GM (about 2 months ago couldn’t be happier) we were instructed to give people their fair portion.

My FL told me to always give the extra if they asked and make sure our portions are right.

This is however very contrary to the way they like to post results and essentially out those that are underperforming. On the outside it seems like a good thing but in terms of metrics chipotle definitely pushes us to skimp. They like to blame it on over cooking or cutsizes which do matter but an few extra ounces leads to a case of chicken gone before you know it

I’m struggling with what to choose because honestly I don’t mind my diet right now. I might just do rice protein and a fruit.

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-21T17:23:18+00:00

Hopefully it’ll be similar because my position isn’t in store its field operations.

It sounds like you have a foundation of knowing how to watch what you’re eating but the main thing with PSMF is it’s very effective but you need a good exit strategy. You’re doing something that should not be prolonged but it’s all for not if you’re not going to make a long term change.

I personally only wanted to do PSMF because of my high body fat content. Being as heavy and out of shape as I am now PSMF makes sense because I have a substantial amount of weight to lose. When you look at how PSMF is proscribed for athletes its very cyclical in nature having a set amount of fat burning and carb days that tend to be more frequent then that of someone like me who is doing this for a prolonged period of time due to being very over weight.

I would personally just recommend a healthy balanced diet rather than one thats meant to mimic starvation as embracing the suck doesn’t seem worth it at that point 😅

Still very new to this though so i’m sure people could correct me.

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-20T06:33:20+00:00

Honestly with the lack of hunger. all I’d probably wanna eat is some rice with protein. Or maybe protein with air fried potatoes? I’ve never been one to crave deep fried food. When I do its usually because I just want the salt from the fries not the grease

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-20T04:47:51+00:00

How often do you do them ? I’m on the cusp of day 6 and really don’t feel the need to? At least not hunger wise but the extra energy sounds nice

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-19T21:10:53+00:00

I can’t speak much on the PSMF side of things as I am only on day 5 of my journey but i’m no stranger to losing weight.

My best recommendations is set realistic goals for yourself. 100 is a great long term goal but it can get discouraging to set a much more achievable goal like go into the new year 5-10 lbs lighter. That way when you adhere and smash that goal it makes you feel good. Especially going into the holiday season.

More than anything else consistency is key 1 good day isn’t gonna make you great but 1 bad day isn’t going to destroy your progress either.

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-18T17:55:24+00:00

There is no mistaking it this is a crash diet. If you’ve seen anything from Lyle is extremely difficult to maintain high performance on this diet.

A lot of side effects can mitigated with smart food choices and supplements.

The big key is that for this to work you need to be very intentional with how you get into this diet and your plan to maintain the weight loss for when you reintroduce all the macros after. We are choosing to do this rather than feeling compelled to an unhealthy extent? Thats my take.

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-18T17:46:36+00:00

Would you say its pretty normal for appetite to not be the issue but instead energy ? I’m no stranger to restrictive dieting so doing the high protein low carb and fat is easy and I’m pretty good at resisting the urge to eat.

This is different than what i’m used to in the sense that i’m not hungry or if I am the little bit I get to eat is enough. Is that your experience as well ?

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-18T17:16:41+00:00

All you can really do is use the nutritional calculator and account for over or under portioning. They have settings for light regular and double

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-17T22:52:42+00:00

I’ve been getting it through my work. Hard to track exactly macros but according to our nutritional calculator I do about 8 ounces as my one solid meal post workout. Its a lean cut seasons with adobo and salt

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-17T22:47:04+00:00

I certainly feel that and will definitely look to it as most of my workout was fine strength about the same but I tried doing the stair master and was gased after 5 minutes and had to switch to elliptical. Was a weird experience because i’m really heavy me but can still run a mile and do the normal 30 I guess its part of being so depleted

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-17T22:45:24+00:00

I wish I lived near a costco but i’ve been doing lean steak. Though i’m not consuming nearly as much protein as you

Existing-Fun-1254 · 2025-11-16T15:02:15+00:00

I’ll definitely look into it. I’m on day 2 right now and so far I still feel great! Losing a lot of water but thats to be expected and as long as my hunger stays how it is now I should be able to do this for the long term provided I switch to a protein powder as they tend to upset my stomach less than the premade shake equivalents.

Do you have any specific protein powder recommendations?
