LOL - good point.
It’s a wonder not all the ads for jobs aren’t in Spanish.
Must be rough being an employer, no wonder they had to use Spanish.
Like all the smaller hotel chains, a good majority of restaurant franchises are now run by foreigners from India, Muslims, Mideastern’s...etc..
They come here not to be Americans, but to collect dollars. Of course they hire the cheapest, lowest wage people they can possibly find, while serving up tiny slop portions which bring the highest profit.
I took a Marketing Class (elective) at Florida State and it was VERY interesting how they “sell” things to the population and how the population “buys” into the Marketing. Whoever thought of Marketing is BRILLIANT. That Thanksgiving Turkey that looks so great in a picture is really frozen with the outside blowtorched just right to make it look scrumptious.
I hear rumors that they can’t find enough (American) folks to fill jobs and have to reach out to illegals.....but I’ve known a few locals who have applied for jobs and not hired...but the conditions are set for tax breaks for minority hiring so some of it is local kids who don’t have to work and some of it is the benefit of hiring minority or illegals
But they do offer services that Americans use, and they pay taxes, right? Americans go to other countries and have businesses to collect money, right? They don’t become foreigners.
Capitalism is good, isn’t it?
You should go to Cheesecake Factory then. That place gives you the largest portions I have ever seen. The prices are way too low for the amount of food they give. You can have in some cases 3 meals out of your meal at the Cheesecake Factory.....
What movie is it from?
There’s a difference between minorities and illegals, isn’t there?
What’s the difference between minorities and Americans?
It was a scene from the "93 movie "Falling Down", a favorite of mine.
Trivial, yes. On various websites that cover news and other slop that passes for news...the Adult Video Awards are mentioned when they occur and some have pics of the glitz and alleged glamour of it all....sort of like red carpet pics from the Oscars. Relative heights of some of the notables are...well...notable. A wee bit of Googling will reveal the 1st, 2nd and 3rd dimensional displacements of most. Relative heights of the lasses are surprisingly diminutive.
Good to know info, thanx
Especially from that useless Meathead.
Kappabashi-dori is the famous street, aka Kitchen Town. Wholesale kitchen everything - ginormous cooking pots, all manner of cooking utensils, pans, servingware... display signs, menu holders, barstools/furniture, and of course the fake food. There's a giant chef with his giant chef's on top of a roof at the beginning of the street.
Not for husbands and children due to the densely packed shops. Wives can go into the smallest shop and disappear for an eternity, while husbands are stranded on the sidewalk in the hot sun. Multiply that scene over and over for every ten feet of road frontage, and you will understand that it is a true horror zone for normal men, lol.
And P.S. don't keep tanking up at the vending machines because there's only one quasi-public restroom in a community center/library which is at the *other* end of the street.
How is their lobster, shrimp, and salmon?
It’s not just the size of the portion, but the specialty food they offer.
I clearly stated tax breaks for hiring minorities
Real food looks like crap on film.
Ok
There seems to be a lot of this going around. On my aunt's first visit to a Japanese restaurant, she thought the little cup of green stuff was guacamole and downed it all in one bite. She learned real quick that you just don't DO that with wasabi (horseradish)!!
