Police: Taco Bell Employees Fatally Shoot Armed Robber CLEVELAND (AP) – Police say three employees of a Cleveland Taco Bell opened fire on two armed robbers, killing one. Police have said two masked robbers entered the restaurant early Wednesday and ordered three employees to lie on the floor. Police say three other employees pulled out handguns and opened fire, shooting one of the suspects six times. The other suspect ran off. http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2017/09/07/taco-bell-employees-shoot-robber/ Taco Bell says it's shocked by the shooting but the article doesn't say if it's shocked by the robbery or the fact three employees were carrying at work.
You'd think the guns were to put customers who couldn't handle the fiery Mexican spices out of their misery, from the way my mate Mike reacted when I suggested Taco Bell on our US road trip back in 2001. I figured a fast food version would be more to his tastes, as it couldn't be TOO spicy, but oh no. Steak and fries for dinner each night, McDs for breakfast and a pack of beef jerky in the car for lunch. Some folk need to show their stomachs a good time, even if Taco Bell is the $20 BJ behind a dumpster it's better than the $5 handjob of McDonalds.
I guess you don't fuck with the bell. Lucky the customers did not shoot them. Whenever I eat at the bell it is time for food and no one better get in my fucking way. I want my tacos and burritos and I don't have time for some dick to rob the place. I am glad they shot those for, and they should shoot the stupid people who cannot figure out how to order what they want. If you fucked yourself up too much to order at taco bell you need to get your ass to Denny's where you belong.
I don't even belong at Denny's - we got kicked out of one during my recent trip to Seattle. "Tolerant" & "laid back" Seattle my white ass!
Now I want some. There is nothing authetic about them but I also did like their soft tacos. They are a guilty pleasure of mine.
I was visiting my daughter in Seattle, and my grand daughter was being "fussy" & crying. Nothing out of the range of a typical 2 year old, but the waitress told us the kid was starting to bother other diners. So we were doing our best and just minutes after the food came the manager came over and laid down the law & claimed she was driving customers away (bullshit, the only people leaving happened to be done eating anyway) and people could here her "all the way over there" and pointed to a side-room 20 feet away. Wow, a child that can be heard 20 feet away! Right about then my daughter went into that side-room to confront (not physically!) whoever was complaining. My wife cursed at the manager calling him a "fucking asshole". Mind you my wife having a mental breakdown (another thread about that already) so she normally wouldn't use language like that in such a situation. So the manager kicked her out for cursing and I'm left behind to watch my grand-daughter and our food go cold. So now we have three upset people (wife, daughter, child) and I have to pay the bill on food we never got to eat. Also my wife is upset and screaming & crying and starting to wander off into traffic. So I'm paying the bill and the manager (who just kicked us out) says with a smirk "so, what do you folks have planned for your vacation activities today?" I think he was goading me into physically attacking him, but I'm starter than that. I'm from out of town so if I did that I would get arrested, my family would be stranded since I was driving our rental car, my mental breakdown having wife would then get arrested, etc.etc.etc. That manager had me by the the balls and he knew it! So fuck him & the horse he rode in on. Sooner versus later some local with more time than money for bail will beat that smart-ass manager into the middle of next week. BTW this wasn't even the worst shit that happened on that hellish vacation!
have you had their black bean burrito? Seriously, black beans & rice - very healthy, very tasty, it's a meal in itself.
when I worked as a security guard at a nuclear power plant we were moved around on different shifts or did double shifts, so we were often sleep deprived. It wasn't uncommon for guards to hide out in a bathroom stall to catch a nap (or just have a troublesome BM) and be missing for a while. Sleep tight America, your air traffic controllers and nuclear plant guards certainly are! BTW if the nuclear plant had been attacked some of us could have been literally caught with our pants down! Also now that I think about it we had female air traffic controllers and plant guards so there were occasional "on duty" sex encounters so that would definitely be a "caught with your pants down" situation!
Should have called corporate and complained, pointing out yours wasn't the only kid being fussy. Might have gotten a free meal (if you wanted it).
Should have called corporate and complained, pointing out yours wasn't the only kid being fussy. Might have gotten a free meal (if you wanted it). - LizK my grand daughter was the only child in there at the time, I was saying her behavior was typical though of the average fussy 2 year old. That manager must not have been around many 2 year olds before I guess. Anyway why did we have to pay? Because we ordered food but because my wife cursed, she got thrown out. If I didn't pay, the manager would call the cops. I couldn't calm my wife down, she was having a mental breakdown (which she was put away in a mental health institute for almost a month) so if we didn't leave she would have been arrested or I would for not paying - probably both of us. Our vacation would be ruined, she would have been put away in a mental institute 2,000 miles from home while I returned to Augusta or lose thousands of dollars in wages (my vacation time would run out) and have to extend our rental car agreement while she went through the mental health system via the jail system, which is some scary, scary, shit. So yeah, paying for a meal we didn't eat was a small price to pay in that situation. But if this happened here in Augusta, yes I would have pressed the issue with corporate for a free meal and tried to make the manager look like the smirking prick that he is. Hey, whatever, he'll get his eventually if he keeps that up.
