DS> As for the comments of bullying, etc., it's sad there are so many of
DS> these in the world nowadays (i.e. the school bullying, then suicides
DS> on Facebook).
SO very true... these "keyboard warriors" are just that.. they do this behind
their keyboard, but I guarantee if you were face to face with one they would'nt
even look at you, they would hang their head to the ground and scurry away.
DS> My parents taught me that "if you can't say something nice, don't say
DS> it at all"...but you're right...these "bullies" have to "have the last
DS> word". Plus, if I talked to my parents the way he responds in the
DS> majority of his messages, I wouldn't be here today!!
Same here.. I can tell you some very creative ways I used to get my whoopings..
but I consider them just that.. DISCIPLINE.. not beatings like everyone wants
to holler now. kids calling cops and DFCS on their parents for spanking them..
what a crock. I was raised to treat others as I would want to be treated, and
never speak ill of the dead or someone who is not there to defend their honor.
And someone who would do that has no Idea what respect is, nor do they have a
single moral fiber in their body.
Even if ones parents did'nt raise them well, as an adult they have the power to
change and do the right thing..
DS> Then, when you tell these people that "Life Isn't Burger King -- you
DS> can't always 'Have It Your Way'...they really get offended. I can say
DS> that, though...I worked for them nearly 40 years ago.
Lol, I was the nightshift manager at burgerking a good many years ago, and just
about had all my family and friends working there. the owner of that particular
frachise loved it because we all worked together so well.
DS> Speaking of which, I absolutely *LOVE* their new Rodeo King sandwich!!
DS> It's like a "Double Whopper With Cheese"...but it has bacon, onion
DS> rings, barbeque sauce, and mayonnaise on it. I just hope this isn't a
DS> "temporary promotional item".
Wow.. that sounds like you would need to take some pipe cleaners through your
arteries to clean out the cholesterol after one sitting.
DS> I also love their 10 piece chicken nuggets. Unlike Wendy's and
DS> McDonald's, the burgers are "flame broiled", and not swimming in grease.
I still cannot really eat there too much just because I worked there and eat it
just about every day. same goes for any other eatery I've ever worked at..
What I loved about working there though, even though we kept that store so
clean one could eat off the floor, on the weekends it would get so busy at
night that our broiler would ALWAYS catch fire at peak hours. we'd have to put
it out with an extinguisher, break it down, wash it, put it back together and
fire it up again. we got so good that we could break it down in less than 10
minutes with it still flaming hot.
I would get customers who would come up and tell me thats the whole reason they
come on peak hours on weekend nights is to just catch the fire show.. and watch
the customers who did'nt know that it occured frequently at peak hours freak
out over it and just about evacuate the store... HAHAHA some good ol times..
You wanted it FLAME BROILED.. WELL.. It's FLAME BROILED.. just scrape the dry
extinguishe powder off it.. (sad enough we would have to throw those away) I
cannot stand wasting anything. I even talked the franchise owner into giving
the food that passed the 15 min warmer time to homeless people. we had at least
four people who worked there that would deliver it to the tent city setup on
their break.. when they got back in I would extend their break and let them
actually eat, or whatever they wanted to do..
anyway.. think I've gotton way off topic here.. this no longer has anything at
all to do with SBBS :)
