Concur on Culver's! Not quite Chick-fil-A level but very close. We don't have In-N-Out up here.I can't speak for your part of the country, chik-fil-A absolutely pays it's workers more than those other locations.
A Wendy's shift manager out here earns 13.50-15.00 a hour; the cashiers at chik-fil-a start at 13.50, cooks start at 15.00. I believe the managers start at around 18-20 right now.
One difference between the two (and other fast food chains) is that chik-fil-a invests in its entry level workers. People who actually get more than a "thrown in the frying pan" type training, and are paid for it.
The other difference is that Chik-fil-A is willing to spend the money to ensure quality. They don't "need" 10 staff to run that last hour of service, but they'll bite the bullet on cost because that's the standard the franchise demands.
IDK if you've ever been to a Culvers or an In-N-Out, but it's the same thing with staff there; they are compensated well and not treated like shit by management
Speaking more in terms of their staffing and service.People think Culver's is good?
Funny...I haven't seen an alarmist news story or begging/ pleading/ threatening news conference about Covid in... a long time. It is almost like it doesn't exist.
I expect we'll see an outbreak again around late-Sept/early-Oct. Fortunately, it should be a short one. I predict it'll be done on Nov 9.
Didn't we have new variants every 2-4 months? Not a single one since Omicron eh? That's pretty strange. EyeRoll.jpgFunny...I haven't seen an alarmist news story or begging/ pleading/ threatening news conference about Covid in... a long time. It is almost like it doesn't exist.
Anecdotally, more people where I am are becoming infected now than they were at the height of the pandemic.
Of course they aren't checking. I bet the requirements actually changed and they willfully chose not to update the website.The graduation ceremony for my oldest was held on post. Open to the public, but everyone had to have proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test within 3 days. Not a big deal to me since the Army required me to get a vaccination (which didn't stop me from getting COVID) right when they started becoming available. But it was an onerous requirement for family members of mine who are not vaccinated, or who got the jabs but aren't habituated to living in "show me your papers" states.
So my unvaccinated family members got the test, and I dug out my COVID vaccination card.
..then, .no COVID checks at graduation. As it should be; my vaccination status is none of your business. But why then make everyone go through the rigmarole of getting vaccinated or tested (or not coming)?
More "security theater."

Given where I work, I have seen more than my fair share. But there was a lull for a good while, but it's resurging. Not bad, 'bad cold' and all, but definitely back.
Everyone (except me) is coming down with the 'rona here. I have the golden "get out of endless jab" pass due to my rare clotting issue in addition to the odd happenstance that my particular division was exempt from the mandates. Literally everyone around me has been boosted upteen times and yet here we are. I'm the one that has never been ill (thank God) nor have I ever tested positive. It sort of seems the more boosters on board the more those folks are getting Covid over and over again.
My daughter had to receive the vaccine in order to return to in-person middle school. She is quite athletic and, of course, young. She's a dancer. She got selected for a special summer dance intensive in NY. After we paid and registered, we were informed that she has to be boosted to attend.
Why?
The shots don't keep people from getting sick. She is literally in the lowest risk category (young, fit, healthy). Each time she gets jabbed, she runs the risk of a negative side effect. Now she's faced with the dilemma of taking a vaccine of unknown efficacy, or not going to this thing she's trained for all year.
Remember when our lord and savior Fauci said, vaccines would prevent illness? Masks would prevent illness?
Then, they doubled down. Yeah, "science".

Crock of shit, as you know, sir.
