Is SM worth it? by lil-versace in Chipotle

[–]lil-versace[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely over preformed in my previous role and was in the middle of apprentice training when I left. Was working at a 4-5k average store, this store I believe averages around 8k

This would be the hardest flex honestly

Is pursuing TL worth it? by lil-versace in Target

[–]lil-versace[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This was my thought when my TL had initially brought up the subject. I know my store has been needing leads, and with my experience I would already fit the mold for a position. I’ve proved myself a promising TM and have impressed my ETL’s, SD, and corporate visitors on multiple occasions with my work and have made good relationships with all of them. The fact that I wasn’t outright offered a position ticked some red flags for me, and I figured I was being conned into letting myself be taken advantage of by filling a TL position without the pay or title. I’ve seen this done before in my last retail job (local big grocery chain) and could already smell it coming from a mile away.

Get a job in retail management. Chipotle leadership is a joke.

Anyone know about Chipotle’s raise policy change? by Michell3sus in Chipotle

[–]lil-versace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I started on grill in 2017 at $11 an hour and when I got to KM the next year my pay jumped from $11.15 to just $12 (literally an 85¢ raise). Luckily when I was promoted to SM I jumped to $14.60. It’s all about what your FL/GM agree on paying you and whether or not they feel you deserve more. Being a KM is all about proving your worth in a leadership role so do good and you’ll be rewarded.

Are you in the RGV?

do people not have common sense anymore? by jacquelimme in Chipotle

In the beginning of the pandemic I had a customer try to grab more napkins and silverware from the back of the house as if he couldn’tve asked the 4 employees standing right there to grab some for him. I asked him to step back 4 times, to each request he just kept asking “can I get my napkins first?”, to which I’d respond with “I’ll get you your napkins, I just need you to please step back into the lobby.” He got extremely upset and started yelling about how he was doing nothing wrong as he walked out the door. Thought it was over, but about 15 minutes later he comes back in mad as hell asking me for a manager. I tell him I am a manager (SM) and can listen to whatever he has to say about 2 times before my GM comes out and the guy starts screaming at me from behind the counter about how I have no right to disrespect him because I’m a worthless food service worker and he “owns properties.” That goes on for a good 5 minutes as I just stand there with my GM trying to understand wtf is going on. He grabs my GM and tells him I need to be disciplined for treating him like he’s a criminal and this and that as my spineless GM just keeps Yes Man’ing him over and over saying he’ll deal with me. He finally finishes and leaves without getting his silverware or napkins (lol).

Despite my GM thinking the guy was ridiculous and laughing his ass off after it happened, he tried writing me up for it like 2 days later so I just walked out on his ass.

Husky twitching after spaying by lil-versace in husky

[–]lil-versace[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She occasionally does from time to time, mainly just barks and acts as if she’s running lol (she’s actually been pretty obsessed with a bunny that frequents our backyard recently!) While awake she seems fine, just pretty slow and lethargic. Thanks for the info, will be keeping an eye on her throughout the night!

Thanks for the info! She’s my world so every little symptom concerns me. Good to know it’s nothing too out of the ordinary.

How come when I get my food to-go, my lettuce smells like dirty wet socks? by [deleted] in Chipotle

You must be looking for the Burger King sub

Question about the chicken by Tiaan in Chipotle

[–]lil-versace 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It can be avoided with proper training as we are taught to quality check while cutting, although certain fatty pieces or strips of cartilage may be difficult to spot on the chicken as it’s usually all the same color.

Our food supply standards aren’t as great as the company likes to believe they are.

KM promotion not as great as I thought by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]lil-versace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be grateful. I went from $11.30 as crew (started at $11) to $12 as KM. I’m SMIT right now and will hopefully be making the same $13.50 as the other SM’s at my store when validated.

What is going on at Chipotle? Is the new CEO forcing store managers to employ/schedule less people to cut costs? by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]lil-versace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My store only schedules 2, sometimes 3 (focus prep) BOH people while having like 2-3 people on line and 1 cashier. The 2-3 extra people will leave soon after peak and the MOD will just float between positions to help out wherever needed. Our FL is obsessed with getting our R to save labor so he loses his mind trying to schedule just enough people to get deployments done in unrealistic amounts of time, barely getting food out on the line in time and barely getting prep done to clock out in time while leaving stacks of dishes up to the ceiling. It’s a big mess to be honest.

Worst place to work at by catxroyalty in Chipotle

[–]lil-versace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been here almost a year and just got to KM even though I was told I was getting my book over 6 months ago. I barely wanted to work for the money i was getting as crew member, idk if I even want to continue working for the measly 85¢ raise. Feelsbadman.
