I used to work Grill as a closer and then Opener when the store I worked at moved me to a different place. I worked for Chipotle for 3-4 years and man I just had so many flashbacks. The double toss down of ckn was something I learned out of desperation because I had the main line and a drive thru line that just slammed my ckn. Same thing with the steak at some point. But it got to the point where I was the only person that could get away with bending so many of the rules and such because I was such a beast at Grill that neither line was fully out of anything on the hot side. Then I learned all the times that it would be busy since we were posted right across from a Uni. Still many memories made their and plenty of stories that would get me fired if I was still their and told the managers but the ones I worked with that were also doing Uni were pretty chill. Still this video sums up morning Grill

[@MominKhan-jk9pu]

Man I wish I could work mornings. Seems like heaven compared to night shifts. Chipotle makes it so difficult

[@RelaxItNELEXYT]

Buddy, I'm working every night shift, and you are certainly correct. My store is closed at 11 pm and because we are having Staffing issues we get short staff for nights and for them to add us additional tasks to make it easier for morning prep is annoying we be out at 1 am. I still remember when the dishwasher quit on us on the spot, leaving me and the GM to deal with that at closing we were out that darn place 3 am but i got a better understanding with the shift Supervisor for the closing shift so we are now buddies. Shout out for the best team lead, Stacy truly best team lead

I was a GM for Chipotle for a few years. I do have to say that it was the 2 best store that I managed for food wise. All restaurants cook leftovers. But Chipotle is the only one that uses day old and throws it after. Their prep is the best I’ve seen with freshness. I actually ran the 9th best Chipotle in the US. They paid managers really well but I have to say they pay employees garbage. The reason I left was because it’s a greedy company. Their standards are high and unreasonable and give no wiggle room to be generous at times with those high prices that’s why you see the skimpy bowls at times

[@StrangeOccultist]

Do they take the leftover chicken off the line and then put it in the fridge ? I’m asking because I have an allergy to gluten and I always am the first person when chipotle opens lol.

As night prep we always prep chicken for yall the night before. Its also fun to all the different times yall get in. My stores usual time is everyone for morning in at either 645 or 7.

I used to do this stuff for 5 years. I thought about going back but I do not miss doing that at all. Makes me anxious just thinking about doing it.

[@groovy1937]

I owned a restaurant and bar for 20 years. It is hard work because it is so intense and you work constantly (that goes for people who have work ethic and want to produce quality). I am surprised to see that you make the tea on the stove top in kettles, we ran our big tea bags in through our bunn hot water machine that made coffee too, it was made strong and then diluted to proper strength with ice. We did all our own prep in the AM for the day and the often all day long depending on demand. Our food was always fresh due to turnover in sales - nothing sat. We labeled everything with dates so rotation was followed. Of course we were Serv-Safe certified, I had all my kitchen staff take classes - that is important. We sliced all our own deli meats and cheeses every other day - lots of Globe slicer work. Prep work tires you out, then working the line finishes you off. I often enjoyed just going in the dish room and doing dishes - it was therapeutic. Customers would be surprised to find out that as the owner I wash dishes. Yes, as the owner you do everything including cleaning toilets. Staff doesn't always show up or you have staff that have shortcomings. Food service is a young persons business. I was worn out and sold my business to someone else luckily several years before the pandemic. They couldn't hack it and the building somehow caught fire. Restaurant in trouble often have "fires" mysteriously happen. You see a lot of fires in the news when the economy gets tough.

This explains why the brown rice is sometimes still too hard. Lately it's been fine, but in the past, like 50% of the time it was undercooked. In general, 30 minutes is too short especially if you don't soak it first. It should be closer to 40 minutes. When I make brown rice at home, I soak it for 10-15 minutes and rinse it in a colander which results in improved texture. Also, 2 cups + 1 cup of oil? That seems like a lot. Anyway, thank you for your service!

[@moxxee3365]

as a service leader at chipotle, generally washing brown rice takes awhile so they get plenty of soakage, usually when you get hard rice its because it gets overcooked sitting in the hot well on either line, especially when its slow

[@elijahw3888]

It's bc cooks are always told different measurements that's why one day it will be fine the other it won't... it depends one the cook

If you are an introvert dml is the only position you won't have to really interact with people so that might not be the most comfortable thing for you but you can probably kick ass if you can put your mind to it.

[@enemymantis760]

At Chipotle a lot is fresh but there are a lot of lies about how fresh it is and there is a lot of corruption too. The al pastor uses bottled pineapple 🍍 concentrate, the guacamole uses lemon lime concentrate, the salsa uses prediced tomatoes from a plastic container, the red and green sauce both come pre-made in a plastic bag, the quaso also comes pre-made in a plastic bag and is warmed up in the plastic bag, the barbacoa also comes in a plastic bag and is cooked in a plastic bag. And they make you work overtime to complete a task and then delete your overtime hours because corporate told them to. And a lot of the benefits you can't get. Also the average hours you will get is 10 hours per week as a crew member and 30 hours per week as a manager, they wont even give you full time 40 hours a week or 5 8 hour shifts a week if you repeatedly ask for 40 hours a week for 6 months straight.

okay my boy the reason doubles suck and against policy is it takes longer to cook, it does not take roughly 6 and 6,7 min like a single chicken would. 7 min then 10+ min for real that much meat on the grill lowers the temp so much can barely even brown on the second side. you cutting it very close to temping chicken. side tip you cooking too long on first side, the sooner you flip the faster you raise the temp. Sear the first side, raise temp with the second.

How to talk with the mic directly in your mouth 101

[@aaronmarks3856]

im a fan of POVs, especially in the grind (I've been there - basically a subway PSU's dorm) - will admit you need to work on your mic lol , sounds like you are using an earbud set with the mic on the wire

So much work with multiple people and it is just the prepping. Kinda explains the higher prices.

I think food is high priced in the stores so how can the places reselling it not be expensive too? Yes the buy in bulk but the odds are good bulk prices are higher than before too..

What do tips look like? And does everybody get tips? And do you have to wear a hat/hairnet all day?

[@maxwellgarcia_]

in the United States, managers aren’t legally allowed to get tips, tips average about $1 per shift for me

[@maxwellgarcia_]

and hat all shift (which is common for fast food/casual establishments)

@@maxwellgarcia_ Really when I was at Subway years ago I used to make about $1,600 a year in tips on average over a 6 year time period. But years ago even during the recession people seemed to not mind tipping. And when I go to Starbucks I always tip at minimum .50 per employee working so your $1 per shift is a surprise.

Chipotle isn't supposed to get tips, but somehow, they had a change of heart.
