How's that $15 an hour looking?
« on: April 13, 2021, 08:33:50 AM »
Taco Bell is opening a digital (online or kiosk) ordering-only location in Times Square, following the lead of several other restaurants.

The kiosks can also be used to buy Taco Bell souvenirs

Souvenirs? Really...

Maybe little toilet bowl keychains or something . . . .

Toilet wipes embossed with the Taco Bell logo.

Funny thing is I used to love Taco Bell, then one day I got a taco and decided it doesn't taste very good, greasy mush is the best way to describe the "meat".

Taco Johns is now my go to fast food "Mexican", love their potato Ole's and grilled burrito with chicken. Taco Johns are found mostly in the heartland west of the Mississippi and some of the mountain west states. There are a few in WI, IL and IN.

We had one here for a while.  It was actually good, real southwest style green chili.  They didn't last, probably because we have dozens of local Mexican restaurants, and everyone has their favorites.  Everyone here also knows Taco Bell isn't even close to Mexican food, but it's fast and tasty and cheap, so they do a good business.

These simps screaming for $15/hr are suckers for increasing union pay scales while reducing lower level jobs and they are too stupid to realize it

"How's that $15 an hour looking?"

Instead of boosting minimum wages, why don' t they look into ways to slow down the printing presses?

I'm not signing this one so nobody will know who posted t
