  1. At a previous job, they would give us Godd friday off. They also gave us Christmas and New years Eve off too and let us go at noon before Thanksgiving, those Christmas and New Years days and 4th of July because people would take sick days off too. Guess it was too much, since hey got sold, laid off everyone here and moved it to Mass.

  2. You must work in a union shop.  They have rules that say their employees can only make chili, during certain times of the year. 

     

    Did you know that servants in Boston went on strike in the late 1700's because they complained that they were eating too much lobster and were picketing to ensure that they were not fed lobster more then 3 times per week?

    You must have been watching Good Eats the food channel last night.

  3. Here in CA, EVERY fast food place (even the Chinese fast food chain) has hispanics working behind the counter, all the way up to manager. It was nice when I visited for Christmas in Buffalo to be able to order without having to speak slowly.

    My town has few hispanics, but the fast food places are full of them. I swear I get worse service walking into the local BK than someone who comes in and speaks spanish. It has happened to me.

  4. But at least you'll be able to drive across LA during rush hour in 10 minutes... 

     

    Just once, I want to see Jack Bauer stuck in a car on the LA expressway for two full episodes.  And complaining he needs to take a piss.  :lol:

    The only time I wsa in LA, I drove from the airport area to NBC in beautiful downtown Burbank (went north, then east) in 45 minutes on a Friday morning at 9 AM. When I told the desk clerk at the hotel I did that, she was amazed.
