I'd like to point out that TR's rolls seem to be more variable in baked doneness in the last couple of years as if they are sitting and drying out.
If you actually say something to your waitstaff, they will tell a manager. That manager will probabably take a stake to the heart to fix your problem. REALLY. And I would hope remark in your report the buns weren't up to par, but you said nothing! Or you reported it and it was fixed. Or you're not doing your job!
Are you really mystery shopping the location or looking for a free meal?
THEY expect us to point out problems.
But if you dont say anything how can they make it right?
You'll find the more accurate in reporting your shops, the better your shop offers will be. I got dumped for $45 TXR and now do $175 steakhouse shops every other month!
Not saying it will happen, just that it's possible.
Yikes! I never said anything related to a shop report. I was just sharing observations here.
"Simmer down now"...(< remember that line from SNL?)
I like TRH in general, although I kind of burned out on the food after so many shops. But one thing I didn't like is how they make employees wear shirts saying I Love My Job. I would find it demeaning to be forced to wear that, even if I did love my job.
No one FORCES an employee to wear company attire. It's a right to work employee-employer relationship. You have workplace freedom or choice.
If only that were true. As a society we chosen an economic model where everyone who can work has to work, unless they have other means of support, such as family or wealth. Those people have to work, and there are only so many jobs available, so some have to work at TRH. I hope you are not syaing they have the freedom to be distitute.
OMG, Kamala is this you? You lost...the people have spoken, it's time to move on.
My best defense against receiving infractions due to lack of flair (IYKYK) was to keep marketable skills.
Marketable skills were the only leverage I had and I used them to the max.
That said, I am grateful. We're all born with different gifts and some are born with none.
To deny that is the height of hubris.
Gee, I thought every adult understood (or quickly realized) that their life exists around marketable skills. First you gain skills from learning. This is why we go to school (for skills, not indoctrination). Second, you show your first employer that you can master such skills. This is the marketing part. Third, you hone those skills over decades in exchange for money such that your network of colleagues speaks highly about you at other employers.
If you choose skills wisely, you select the skills that are in greater demand (STEM fields, not gender studies). I did this and was able to minimize the number of total earning years by maximizing the income when I grew my career. As a result I was able to retire early from the private sector once I reached the 4% rule. I did this as an introvert who wasn't great at marketing themselves. Imagine if I had a Bill Gates or Elon Musk extrovert personality.
