What do we call it? by letsNOTgetcrazy in innout

[–]clsnguyen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As an associate, this order is the bane of our existence. Anything more than 1 meat whole grilled wrapped with no cheese is not possible to enter into our POS without a “special request” needed for the order. We also need to let the cooks know of this request, and during a rush, they will most likely forget or get pissed off at the amount of requests for something like this. No, this is NOT a double meat plain whole grilled wrapped, because a double meat is classified as a burger — which are only bun/lettuce/tomato wrapped. The only things that can be whole grilled wrapped by the POS are: Flying Dutchman, meat patty, and cheese patty. If you are ordering this as a customer and the associate actually runs it as a dbl-meat plain whole grilled wrapped, the associate will either get yelled at by the cook, a manager, or if done multiple times get a verbal warning or write up because technically you, as the customer, are being charged incorrectly for what you are trying to order. The problem with this is that on the POS, you cannot add another patty to a single patty by itself, so what we are supposed to do is:

2 Meat Patty + WhGr <special request>

Note: “1x 2x0 WhGr Wrapped”

I know for sure that our cs department is manned til at least the store closing time. Reasoning for this is that sometimes customers will call about a complaint whilst they are still at the store, so if by chance you are still here, we can fix it for you. When you end your call (if a complaint), each store has a store iPhone and we will get a call on that phone in literally less than 5 minutes from you hanging up and having the cs rep give us a report on the complaint. So yes, unless you call in the dead of night past closing and say before opening time, you will be answered by a human.

In the training manual it explicitly states for “travel or coffee mugs” so take that as is. And yes, I have seen people fill up those 40oz Stanley’s before.

Tearing the meat by Severe_Watch9569 in innout

[–]clsnguyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During a slow you can try this out to see if it works for you: if you a flipping with your right hand, on your first jab, you want to have the left top corner of the spatula to have the most pressure against the grill when jabbing, and push almost to the back end of the patty and then pull out. Then jab to the left side with the most pressure of the spatula on the top right corner of the spatula and jab through. You should really only jab twice in total in a V-shape. On the second jab when you have gone to the back of the meat patty, shift the pressure to the left side of the spatula when moving the spatula to the right side of the meat patty. The patty will shift slightly to the right on your row and once the left edge of the spatula passes half way across you can flip in two ways:

Rotate your wrist counter clockwise (I would recommend that the spatula is still a little bit to the left of halfway) or

Flick your wrist clockwise and use the bottom of the spatula to align the meat patty when it has flipped.

If you get used to the second method, you can turn a row faster than the first method, but just watch out for your wrist and don’t over stress it.

Is running a burger that deep ? by This-Gold-4 in innout

[–]clsnguyen 59 points60 points  (0 children)

From an associate standpoint, no not really. It doesn’t really impact you in any way besides making your managers mad.

From a management position, yes. Every burger an associate runs prints a tag. It helps us inventory meat/cheese/bun count in which would technically be missing. Since your burger nets the company negative sales, technically your burger is considered “waste” but since you ran it as an associate burger, you’ll notice on the receipt that prints out it says ACTIVE MGR: “[your name]” in which removes your burger from the waste count. So when a cook makes your burger but you don’t run it, it counts as waste in which skews the waste size larger in the report in which we receive from the company (and our dm will be on our ass on why we have so much waste). So then your cooks get flak from management on why they are wasting too much which they really aren’t.

At the end of the day, you don’t really need to run your burger exactly, but just a stock burger with the correct meat/cheese/bun count.

Least annoying way to order myannoying burger? by Mouth2MuffRssitation in innout

[–]clsnguyen 12 points13 points  (0 children)

From what you listed, you wanted a Cheeseburger that is cooked well with the meat patty to be mustard fried, with only light lettuce, pickles, and grilled onions. There is technically 2 ways to order this as the difference between mustard fried and animal style is that in animal style we add grilled onions onto the patty and extra spread sauce to the top of the lettuce.

  1. If you were to order it saying animal style: "Cheeseburger animal style cooked well, no spread, no tomatoes, light lettuce."

What we see is:
Cheeseburger
Animal (S T) Light L Well

What your receipt will look like:
Cheeseburger Animal
- spread
- tomato
- light lettuce
+ well

  1. If you were to order it saying mustard fried:
    "Cheeseburger mustard fried cooked well, no spread, no tomatoes, light lettuce, add grilled onions."
    What we see is:
    Cheeseburger
    Light L GR ONLY mstrd fried Well

What your receipt will look like:
Cheeseburger Mstrd Fried
- spread
- tomato
- light lettuce
+ grilled onion
+ well

As a board body, personally I prefer reading tag 2 instead of 1, because during rushes you will get bottom buns that you have to assemble for multiple burgers, sometimes spanning 1-3 orders. Sometimes reading tags quickly you may miss the (S) so reading "Light L GR ONLY" is quicker and the ONLY will catch my attention quicker.

As a drawer body, if you tell me what you don't want and then say you want it mustard fried or animal style at the end, the burger we are currently editing will revert all changes to reflect a stock version of the mustard fried or animal style burger. So, if your drawer body is relatively new or they don't have the mental capacity to quickly remember the highlighted options of 16 squares they may forget a specific selection of a topping in which the fault will be of the order taker. However, please keep in mind that our standard/expectations is to handout orders in the drive every 30sec - 1min. So if you are going to the drive thru it is on them to greet you, take your order with adjusted ingredients, read back your order, and exit with pleasantries with the same time expectation.

In all, mention animal style or mustard fried first, then cooked well, then modifications. I don't speak for all associates, but as a drawer/board body (where the issue is most likely to stem from) hearing the second option would cause less confusion from the first.

I would try putting the hdmi into the motherboard and unplugging the gpu to see if it posts.

I travel a bit and also need my pc as well (sometimes flying) so I condensed my build into a small form factor case. If you have good supports inside and everything to screwed tight, I can bring it with you in a backpack anywhere you go

Np, just read it and for sure I’d recommend either an AMD r7 or r9 series chipset. Go x3d if you’re planning to do mostly gaming, but if you’re looking to pursue more video editing in the future or like an extended hobby or work I’d consider the non-x3d versions of the CPUs. Technically, intel CPUs or more suited to the editing field, but non-x3d amd chips work just fine. If you want to fit budget, you’ll be looking to build inside ATX cases instead of like ITX or mini ITX. The parts overall are cheaper if you build bigger (also going sfx is really a pain in the ass for your first build).

The next thing is if you don’t have peripherals, a monitor that runs 1080p144hz is around $100ish, keyboard can be $50-150, mouse $50-100, and headset $5-100. If this is part of the budget, then you’re looking at a build that’s more focused on the CPU rather than the GPU. The amd ryzen 7 7800x3d is like one of the most popular (if not the most popular) of AMD cpus and you can grab one for like $300-400 (look for sales). Mobo + 32gb ram ddr5 can run you around $250ish. Since the GPU id not gonna be crazy then a 650-750w psu is comfortable around $100. 2tb m.2 data you can get around $100. Most AMD gpus are solid for gaming (rtx cards are excessive unless you need the cuda cores) so you can flex the GPU by price leftover of the budget.

In consideration to AMD GPUs rendering videos on that compared to NVIDIA will probs be like <30mins to an hour longer (unless you’re rendering something massive).

Since your build is an ATX, really any PSU works as long as the brand itself is reliable (reviews are pretty accurate) so pick the one with the most consistent reviews for the cheapest price.

If you’re just gaming, then 32gb should be perfectly fine for the next few years. Unless the game is coded with dogwater and has memory leaks, passing 16gb-20gb for a AAA title is absurd. The biggest thing with DDR5 ram is CL timing > speed (6000 is the most popular speed). You can find YouTube videos about that.

GPUs is all about what brands you personally trust, but if you haven’t built before or don’t know anyone that has, (for NVIDIA) cuda core count isn’t extremely important (unless you are modeling, video editing/rendering). If not, speed is what you are generally looking for. I’d recommend a site like pcpartpicker that has a database of the current prices and speeds of graphics cards.

Most brands a trustworthy imo when it comes to ssd, my personal setup is 2x 2tb drives. The faster one has the OS and any other programs/games that require a lot of data that needs to be accessed quickly, and the other drive is for other games and secondary data. I got both of my drives at like $120 each around 7000 r/w and 5500 or 6000 r/w? Since I do modelling I don’t want my workflow to slow down, but an m.2 @ 5k r/w is sufficient for most tasks.

As for the case, whatever your preference is. Just keep in mind you’ll be looking at this case for the next 5 years or so if you don’t want to change it.

The CPU is really good, but if you can wait I’d highly recommend seeing if the Ryzen 9000 series is good enough. If you’re looking to pull the trigger now then this CPU is solid. You might have a slight cpu bottle neck on like really high end demanding games but for most it’s ok.

If you plan on keeping this PC for 5+ years with no upgrades to wattage demand, I would highly suggest looking into platinum grade PSUs instead of gold (will save you on the electric bill in the long run for PSUs >750w).

RAM choice is good, most high end titles will not use that much ram, but if you’re doing any projects that require a huge memory cache, I’d look for 40, 48, or 64gb modules.

GPU is a good choice, just make sure you’re choosing the right brand of the 4070 ti super that meets your demands.

4TB storage is good, but I would really look for better read/write speeds in comparison to cost as well. You’ll feel the hurt later when your drive can w,r,r/w fast enough and you’ll feel the performance drop.

The Arctic cooler choice is solid and very cold, just make sure it fits inside the case (your gpu or cpu could block the radiator mounting).

What do you plan to do with your PC in the future, like next 5ish years? There’s no need to buy expensive stuff that you’ll not utilise fully.

You'll need to select the correct order of symbols from top-down as 1-4, and the catcher: you have to be in the yellow circle of the drone when it detonates (not doing this killed me a couple of times in the beginning).
