heh, Popeyes employee tells Undercover Boss 'let's go to Taco Bell for lunch'. -- (link) - CrankYanker Mar 5, 08:20 20
- I wonder if the boss eat's Popeye's for every meal? -- nm - ty97 Mar 5, 08:31 1
  - well, the employee's first statement is "it's too expensive to eat here" - groiny Mar 5, 08:33
- anyone who has worked in a restaurant knows how unappetizing that food gets after a while. -- nm - TFox Mar 5, 08:24 17
  - yup, I worked at a fried chicken place 25 years ago, and I still can't eat there today. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 5, 08:30

  - (the fact that the boss doesn't understand that suggests they have no idea about their own business.) -- nm - TFox Mar 5, 08:25 10
    - Iirc, popeye's doesn't offer employee discounts. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 5, 08:27 9
