So they make a concentrate, which anyone can do with virtually no effort. Then they freeze it, which anyone can do with virtually no effort. Then they sell it to you, which apparently anyone can do with virtually no effort.

That would be great, but her seat is for a county where the legislature currently sits at 23 (R) - 2 (D), where the 2 were unopposed and only one other D ran for a county seat in 2020. A seat thrown the way of the Ds would be a step forward, but they would still be getting steamrolled in every bit of county business.

It’d be really nice if people stopped running for office to promote their businesses.

Besides, who wants to keep loose eggs in their refrigerator?

have raised pay for the manufacturing workers overall.

I wouldn’t mind seeing some experiments on what adjacent toppings prevent firmer items from sliding out, e.g. onions, pickles, etc.

There are more places starting to adopt something similar. Chipotle, for example, if you order online or in the app, you just have to walk in and grab your order off the pickup shelf when it’s ready. Maybe the cost of implementing a system like the Pizza Portal is too high for smaller places (most don’t even have a…

Great story! Shame the location closed, sounds like they had a good shop. Hopefully it was just the same squeeze we’ve been seeing across the country with fast food, due to over saturation, and the people who worked there were able to take their positive attitudes somewhere that didn’t beat it out of them.

Yeah, it’s probably just the default because in most cases the comp is going to someone that complains. It does suck if it shows on the card that it was for a complaint, you never know when you might get a surly employee get all bent out of shape thinking you complained to get free food.

The worst is the bogus “liability” excuse. Federal law protects those making donations in good faith, but companies still hide behind it because they don’t want to actually help the hungry, or in the most disgusting cases, don’t want the homeless associated with their brand.

Little Caesars’ pizza portal does exactly that.

Pretty much all modern machines have sensors to make sure you receive what you paid for, or they refund your money.

I don’t know why, but this comment just reminded me of a scene in Jurassic Park III. They’ve all in the visitors center after having just escaped a bunch of dinosaurs, when they spot a vending machine. Feeling peckish, Mr. Kirby announces he’s short and asks if anyone has a quarter, before young Billy comes and…

I know that the complainers are much more likely to get a freebie because the store wants to stop them from spreading bad stories, but you are exactly the type of person they should be comping. Especially since we all know that the complainer is still going to tell their story about how terribly they were treated for…

The real secret is that even if you don’t get the Hot and Ready, the pizza is still $5. The pizza is actually pretty decent if it’s hot out of the oven, vs being a hot circle of garbage if it’s been sitting there waiting for someone to ask for it. My local LC is 15 minutes from work, and less than 5 from my house, so…

Only food I’ve ever had from there is the ham and cheese croissant and it is salty, buttery and goddamn delicious.

Looks like they got around to expensive coffee.

But I was captivated by her even earlier in the meal when I heard her at the end of the table laughing at my jokes. She had me at Ha.

I’ve been thinking of getting a cart like that for a while, because thanks to my kitchen having three doors I have a severe lack of counter space, though still double what I had in my previous apartment (it’s no surprise I take on bigger kitchen projects now than I did in the old one). I’ve had one on my Amazon…
