Funny, but this guy is a CEO of a shitty cantina style restaurant chain. Yeah, he definitely sucks, but he's not tricking people into paying for a life-saving product then reneging when the customer needs it. He's stealing the culture of a civilization that was genocided then selling it to the genociders for obscene profit at the cost of his employees and customers alike...Okay, never mind. Carry on.

had me in the first part not gonna lie

if you search for Chipotle CEO you get the last guy who left this year and his first listed position was CEO of Proctor and Gamble. There is no such thing as an innocent CEO.

Is he paying wages based on inflation and regional cost of living? No? He's not immune.

I clicked the link, thinking it was going to be a funny meme about chipotle making your butthole bleed.

........instead, now I'm probably on a list.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago

don't worry, it didn't put you on any list you weren't already on just for using federated social media.

Pretty sure that millions of people are looking at info on CEOs throught the country.

Pretty big list of suspects...

Scrolling through that list, all i could think was how dare they call it "Chipotle Mexican Grill."

The best I could do was rustle up an office address.

God he's got such a punchable face.

They raising wages to match inflation? No?

Start huntin'

Send Gus Fring to have a nice chat with the CEO.

Then we can have NYC John Wick as support if necessary.

Just having a chat, nothing to see here.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago

I mean, inflation actually is at 2% or just I over that, isn't it?

Ideally they'd match that with 2% pay raises for staff, but yeah that seems unlikely.

"We are raising prices because prices are being raised"

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Everything gets 2% for expensive every year, the outliers are loss leaders to get you in the door ($1.50 costco hot dogs, $10.00 costco pizzas)

We're not stuck with eating at Chipotle because it's who our employer picked as a service provider.

Now, you want to go look up their wage statistics, we can talk...

Chipotle isn't necessary to survive. I get that it's a joke but it's not the same

I am no expert but after reading all that, reintroducing the gold standard seems like a very bad idea. It just replaces one type of regular occurring crisis with another and now your food becomes more expensive when Australia opens a new gold mine.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Yeah I said it because it also prevents inflation from being controlled by the state (bad idea in any modern economy)

But this also lead to nations having way less gold than they require in order to have a currency adequately valued

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

I suspect America would have the same reaction as the first time, if it happened again

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Would be stupid to not raise the cost when inflation is double (in Austria at least) the raise.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

LOL, have fun with that. Like 2 years ago I went to Chipotle and ordered a steak burrito with guacamole. It was $19. I was flabbergasted. I haven't been back since, and I will never go back. Get fucked, greedy bastards.
