A new viral Chipotle 'hack' has taken over TikTok...it basically involves bullying the staff by putting tons of pressure on them in the hope it will lead to them giving you larger portions. Is this unnecessary harassment of minimum wage workers, or customers stopping themselves being ripped off? The internet is VERY divided. We delve into all the details on the latest episode of Scroll Deep. #chipotle #tiktok

Dude, as a Starbucks worker, I care so little about Starbucks that I will give things away for free sometimes if it personally gets me out of an irritating situation. If I short anyone, anything, it’s usually because they had heinous vibes and I just so happen to “forget” all the sugar

If I was ever recorded like this when I was working a fast food job, my petty would kick in and you would get EXACTLY the corporate approved amount, which is less than you want. Employees tend to overserve on portions at places like this, but there's no way I'm overserving on camera

@@freddurstedgebono6029"Get a clue" you say, as literal fast food workers tell you they usually overserve and give larger portion sizes. Forcing someone to be on film will give you the exact corporate amount, which is usually less than workers will give you. You're literally helping the corporations save money. The workers do NOT care and do NOT get more money by giving you less.

If my scoop was rounded I got screamed at. She finally stopped one day when a lady asked for double meat, I scooped her double meat and this boss came out screaming and berating me like I was an idiot. Customer went off on her.

@be_kind_of_frogs7284 3 месяца назад

Ok, so i just stopped working at Subway, but recently, they've been getting on us for portions. Before, you kinda eyeball it with the scoops because the portions we're told to give are pretty small. Now, we are supposed to scoop only enough to "fill" it (aka the top of the scoop). Another example of this: Portion for olives on a Footlong is 9, but when you put that on a sandwich, you can tell that's not enough. It's happening at every restaurant, and our bonuses have been threatened because of it.

@jayedith9398 3 месяца назад

I am disappointed in you saying there is no proof that Chipotle is giving smaller portions. If you did any research at all... you'd know there is proof. There are many videos of people ordering the same bowl from multiple Chipotle and receiving inconsistent portions from each place. Also when weighing the protein, they are sometimes only receiving half a much grand as the serving size should be (as indicated on the Chipotle website).

@Unpopularity 3 месяца назад

I went to Chipotle for like the first time in some years. I was asked if I want "queso", which means "cheese". I was given a splash of white sauce, charged $2 for it, and grilled at the counter over what I ordered. I had no idea I ordered $2 for a splash of white sauce. Sorry, I don't care. They find clever ways to manipulate upsales. "Queso" used to mean shredded cheese there, now it's an abbreviated trick to toss a small drizzle of 2 teaspoons of sauce then shake you down for $2 if you aren't aware of what's going on.

@msjkramey 3 месяца назад

They've referred to the cheese sauce as queso for years there. And as a rule of thumb, when a fast food employee asks you if you want something like that, it's going to be an upcharge, but they're supposed to say do you want to "add ___" because the word "add" implies the charge

@spy6205 3 месяца назад

How long has it been since you last went? Queso has referred to the liquid cheese sauce for at least a few years now. I’ve never had them refer to the shredded cheese as queso, even in the years before they developed the liquid cheese; they always just called it cheese.

@Unpopularity 3 месяца назад

@@msjkramey oh get out of here with this condescending "common sense education" speech you and half the people here love to pretend you have over others; you know full well they ask you for all kinds of stuff. Sorry bud but it's "Queso Blanco, it's extra", not "queso". That's how you make a consensual sale. They ask everyone all the time for most ingredients; beans? Peppers? What kind of rice? Meat? Double wrapped? Cheese? Lettuce? Corn? Salsa?And no, I don't shop at Chipotle regularly. They hire bilingual people everywhere; it's actually "Queso Blanco" not "Queso". So yeah, I hear "queso" and I think "cheese" because I know what "queso" in Spanish is.

"Queso" is not "Queso Blanco" many people are bilingual and there are hundreds of places we haven't been in over 5 years. Yes, you need to specify if you're upselling not just "queso".
