Not here. Worked for Southwestern Oilwell Servicing in Lovington, New Mexico in the ‘60’s though if that’s any help.

No sorry,but I was partial to the swill they served up at Hoagie Hut. And you couldn’t beat the 99 cent breakfast at Scottys in Nitro,WV.

My fav was White Tower --- little tiny all fat burgers with fried onions on a toasted bun. Most folks would order two or three.

But sadly, there is no more White Tower --- good thing too. If the food Nazis hate McDonalds, they would got totally insane over the fat content of those burgers.

Never made it to Swenson’s during my time in that part of the world.

Have you gone to Siebel’s in Burtonsville yet? I ate there lots in high school.

I had a friend who worked at Burger Chef in Grand Haven, Michigan in the 70's. They changed it to a Med One in the 80's. Then late in the 90's (or maybe early in the '00's) they tore it down to put in a Home Depot and strip mall.

But bordens? No. I've only been to WV once (just passing thru)and never in Morgantown. So good luck in your internet quest to find this elusive breed of employee.

This was back in the late 70’s. We’d go and eat there after spending the day skydiving at the Cleveland Parachuting Center.
