for church groups, does this equate to fucking on the trip?

That's just stoopid. If viewing your food before you order it is some special right, then wouldn't all restaurants need to have open kitchens?

It's not like Chipotle has a vast menu. One visit and you can order without even looking. The only thing thats are not completely obvious are the salsas and most people probably choose by amount of spiciness not appearance.

And if they lower the counters, wouldn't that create the possibility of employee injury? I would have thought the food prep areas were installed at a height to avoid strain.

Was your takeaway that you shouldn't meddle so much since the two got together once you were no longer in the picture?

(That's a rhetorical question, btw.)

I imagine that the employee side will remain as it is and the customer floor will be raised.

Customers in glass bottom boat; food preparation in transparent underwater dome. Pickup orders at dock. Problem solved. You're welcome.

But then the plaintiff *still* wouldn't have the same view as the rest of us, who are able to see over the sneeze guard. And how do they provide a reasonable accommodation for a blind burrito fan?

I would like to see the station where they inject tons of delicious salt into everything. Would you like a burrito with your salt?

Re: The End is Nigh
 

those burritos are like 1,000 calories. I'll pass.

Re: The thread where Spring has sprung, and Penske has risen from the law. Word!
 

so months ago I ranted about a college freshman who had been tricked into paying for a private school with 2 promises: 1) you'll be on varsity b-ball roster and 2) next year I'll likely get you athletic scholarship $$$$.

so the kid takes out loans and mom and granny scrimp and he is there, and finds out 1 was a lie and 2 is too silly to even ask about. so kid decides to transfer for next year. but they owe about $2000 so the school says "no transcripts." the family thinks it has worked it out by promising to pay over 2 years, but recently learned that the transcripts free up when the money has all been paid.

so this "educational institution" has now not only fucked the kid's dreams it also wants him sitting around at home for 2 years where he will likely develop very bad habits. the funny thing is the school's webpage talks about a committment to education AND I'm sure the admins there all moved into education to further that goal.

so, anyhoo, I'm thinking about a lawsuit, for the difference between the cost at that school and in-state public school. the suit would be based upon the "promise" which was oral. I'm thinking it's the kind of thing that attracts settlement money quickly if framed against dismissal.

thoughts?

There's a story going around amongst building and planning folks that LA once required a wheelchair ramp into a lifeguard tower. Them's the rules.
