Re: Official Bored at Work / Off-Topic Chat Thread II

I am a very picky eater. I have gotten a lot better in the past decade with trying new foods but I still struggle with a lot of foods. Every time I go to Mexico I have to go through this whole process with the family over what I do and do not eat. But yeah, I basically still eat like a 10 year old.

Taquitos con queso. We'd get them from the taco stands all over the place in Mexico, so good. Dammit, I'm hungry now.

Health rating is A. Very clean place, very good food. They also cater at the LA Dodgers games. You have to pass certain health inspections to be able to cater a Dodger game, they are good...

21 locations throughout Los Angeles County but yet to break into San Diego... ok, that's a peeve... It should eventually happen, but I doubt it would ever be able to expand out of the state unfortunately... King Taco is the same to me as In and Out for any of you that have been able to experience the joy of a double-double burger from In and Out.

In and Out is a family run business though that is religated to only the West Coast, and not the entire West Coast at that. Those that travel to California from abroad normally make it a mission to hit an In and Out before they leave. This is how I feel when i do travel to LA for business, i need to get my King Taco fix...

Listening in to a phone call at work. I had zero context for this:

Woman's Voice [excited]: Oh that was quick!
Man's Voice: I've always got time for you...

Some of the things you overhear in Government jobs are hilarious .

You should hear my coworkers.

Today at work: "Mustaches have killed more people than have ever lived".

Are the walls at your "work place" padded and your windows have bars on them?

No, but sometimes the doors won't open.

In'n'out burger is easily the most overrated burger I've ever had. Not to say it was bad (maybe going animal style was a mistake) but it didn't even come close to living up to the hype. (They are no longer just a Cali joint with the one in Vegas, there are several in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex.) I'll stick with Whataburger and some spicy ketchup. The green chile double is next to godliness.

No animal style is where it's at. Not sure what you're problem is, everyone else loves it.

Re: Official Bored at Work / Off-Topic Chat Thread II

No, but sometimes the doors won't open.

The doors where I work don't open unless you slide the ID card really slowly. Or you trip the fire alarm, which disengages all locks in the building but also floods the corridors around the server room, and the server room itself with gas.

Sometimes It's tempting to push the fire alarm to see if I can outrun the gas cloud.

Whataburger is the most inconsistent food chain I've ever eaten at. Sometimes the burgers are fantastic, and sometimes they're downright awful, depending on the individual location.

In & Out was OK when I tried it maybe a decade ago, but agree it's not really something worth going out of your way for. Better than White Castle (which is another super-overrated burger joint), but that's not saying very much aside from most people have poor taste in food.

If I were to recommend a franchised burger restaurant, it would probably be Fuddrucker's (but even then I'd hesistate).
