Chipotle announced they were having a buy one get one free deal between 3p-4p for a day. People started lining p around 2:00 to participate in the promotion. At about 2:40pm the manager at the Bronx chipotle shut down the store and did not open again until 4p.
The manager then told the people who have been waiting in line for 2 hours that the promotion was over and they were not doing the buy one get one deal. What’s messed up is they knew they weren’t going to participate yet they did not tell anyone nor did they have a sign saying they weren’t doing it either. Since the kids have been waiting there patiently, shouldn’t they honor it anyways?
Every time I fly I feel like the airline industry could use a major shakeup. Like, where is the Steve Jobs or Elon Musk of aviation? It’s probably the one industry where the average user experience has gotten significantly worse over the last few decades.
Today I achieved it. MY Black bull 🐂 I come from an underdeveloped country—a Third World nation with a low HDI—an HDI comparable to that of countries like Algeria or Gabon on their very best days. There in Brazil people’s shit on streets and u can’t walk safely with ur iPhone cause they gonna stab u in the belly.My father died when I was very young, yet he gave me exactly what I needed in terms of experience. My mother, though very poor, raised two children amidst great hardship, yet she did so with honor. I am the fruit of a miracle that succeeded; for this, I am grateful for everything I achieve. I am not worthy of Divine mercy, yet Your grace, O God, is sufficient for me.
@AwakenedOutlaw I work in Aviation Safety directly with stuff like this and couldn’t agree more. There are a lot of system layers built in, however, when the holes in the cheese align…
RE: Denver International Airport being shut down.
I just wanted to point out how rare it is for a major airport (think: critical infrastructure) to be shut down entirely in an emergency/unplanned electrical outage, because they're intentionally engineered with significant redundancy/back-up systems to protect against exactly that happening.
It's not like blowing a fuse at your house.
@HappyPunch Purpose is a really hard thing to nail down, especially when it is woven into your identity. Took me time and writing to sort it out myself.
Dustin Poirier admits he’s struggling with retirement 😕
“I don’t know who I am without fighting. Fighting was a cloud in my mind that never went away for 20 years. Now I wake up and it’s gone. What do I do? I’m still trying to find out.”
@thepointsguy Miami Airport Sheraton, hands down. They are opening a soccer stadium right next to it too, so it will likely hang around too unfortunately
@funandprofitco@LeadingReport They were all contract security rent-a-cops with metal detectors and wands. It was super simple until the terrorists F'd it all up.

Minneapolis officials say the financial fallout from Operation Metro Surge is still growing, and recent city estimates show the federal immigration enforcement operation has already created more than $203 million in impact across the city in just one month.
Genuine question on a restaurant situation:
You walk up to a counter to order.
You find your own table and seat yourself.
If you order coffee, they hand you a cup and you go fill it up yourself.
If you order food, they hand you a buzzer and when it goes off, you go pick it up yourself.
The iPad has a “20%, 25%, 30%, Other” tip option, with 20% already preselected.
What’s your move?
@CollinRugg Interesting how they use Aviation as the pain point. The axis intersection of working people with money, regulatory compliance, and security. Airports are mini-cities within the cities and everybody that uses them is a payer. Where politics hits the runway.
NEW: TSA line spills into the parking garage at the New Orleans International Airport due to TSA staffing shortages.
According to local reports, wait times are up to 2 hours, and delays could continue through this week.
"Due to impacts from the federal government's partial shutdown, there is a shortage of TSA workers at the security checkpoint at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY), which is causing longer-than-average lines."
"Passengers are advised to arrive at least 3 hours before their scheduled departure to allow plenty of time to undergo security screening. Wait times can be up to 2 hours. The delays could continue through the rest of the week."
Insane.

@alphafox People tend to change when catastrophic things happen, commonly referred to as 'rock bottom'. Outside of these catastrophic events, humans tend to resist change due to their own ego. 'Rock bottom' usually is the ego shatter point, like getting divorced.
