Once had a regular who worked at the Japanese restaurant next door bring in a huge box of meat, rice, and other foods for us. One of the sweetest things someone has done for me.

We had a regular tip us in beer and wine. The manager was there and took home some of that beer. The regular brought a bunch of chocolate bars. Manager ate one. The next day the same regular brought us pasta from a restaurant. Like, probably $50 worth of pasta dinners. I was reaching to bring it in and the manager lost his fucking shit because he can't bring outside food to us? Mother fucker you let us take ALCOHOL but won't let us take lunch?!?! He was a complete ass to said regular about it and told him he'd just have to throw it away.


We lost that regular that day. He never came back.


I hate my manager.

Wooooow thats wild. Why are some people just so awful like that.

Like hell even if I had to deny the food I would state like 100x times how grateful I would be at even the thought and that they should take the food down to a shelter if able to.

Yeah, my manager is an absolute ass to everyone. Our customers are super fucking nice man. I half wish we had a Komplaint of Karens every now and then that would call the DM on this dick head.

A kitchen manager from a locally owned fried chicken restaurant came in. I jokingly asked if he had my fried chicken. He said we could totally do a food swap, I told him all I could do is give him a discount. Man just shrugs and says sure. He took all of our orders and came back with food for us. 😭

I legit real that as “anal pastor” and I knew that I read it wrong 😂

Isn’t al pastor just fancy pork? Burritos are amazing nevertheless!

An Anal Pastor is the man that would make me do funny things in God's Closet when I was a kid.

oop just understood this
sophie-marie 2 points 2y ago
Who knew an innocent post about a burrito would unveil so much stuff? 😅
dodofishman 2 points 2y ago
al pastor is marinated pork roasted on a spit, it's similar to shawarma! It combines mexican and middle eastern flavors, usually served w pineapple

babyybeean 2 points 2y ago

My first few weeks at my bucks 13 years ago, a friend of mine was a bartender at the pub next door. She offered to trade me drinks for drinks so on my lunch hour I did just that. I told my manager how cool that was and she was like “uhm... I’m gonna pretend I didn’t hear that, but that’s kind of a no bueno FYI”
