...and unlike you, don't have all day for lunch.
Not entirely sucky, save for the fact that despite planning things out I didn't get enough time to actually eat my lunch...but J saw a bit of what happened and let me scarf down half my sandwich after clocking back in.
The store doesn't actually open until Tuesday, but this past week was a dry run for the restaurants and food counters. Basically free food in exchange for comment cards. Intended for friends and family of employees, but after the first 2 days I think it mutated to cover "anyone who manages to sneak in". That or the press got ahold of the info and printed it somewhere as 'hey guys free food'. From what I hear, most of the kitchens were completely in the weeds. There's 'lunch rush', and then that which is far beyond any lunch rush I've ever witnessed.
The rotisserie counter's been a mob scene (amazing prime rib sandwich...I'm gonna be in trouble when they start charging for it), and I finally got to get to it on break on Wednesday. I'm at the head of the line, start to order...cashier gets distracted by another employee who isn't in line but is on the customer side of the counter, a non-employee barks an order, and the cashier takes his down first before I can actually say anything (not that it mattered much as we both got the same thing, but still annoying). The 'line' was a bit nebulous and poorly organized to begin with.
Customer who cut ahead of me later sees me at the end of the station waiting for my food, and apologizes for cutting with "I thought you worked here." ...yes, but I'm on break.
