..."Hey... What's the big idea?!" Spike shouted from the top of the stairs, just now awake. "I was making breakfast..." Anon said, ripping off his apron in defeat. "It's okay, we can get fast food for breakfast." Twilight turrned to Spike to see if he approved. "Sounds good?" He let out a yawn and gave a thumbs-up before heading to the bathroom for his morning routine. Anonymous tensed up a little bit. It had been a while without meat, and he wasn't looking forward to becoming a vegitarian. Then again, an omnivore alien might not help his dwindling good reputation. "Actually... I'll get something to go." __________________________________________________________________________________ THE FOURTH DAY "FAST FOOD RESTRAUNT" (NON-TARGET) 7:42 AM As soon as Anon entered the restraunt, almost half of the patrons bagged up their food and left as soon as possible, some not worrying about their food. Twilight and her friends were the only ponies from Ponyville to make contact with him, excluding the brave Equines at the party who dared to start a conversation with the alien. "Alright..." Anonymous pointed to Twilight while looking at the colt behind the counter. "I'll have this horse cooked and stuffed, and uh... add a side of hayfries and a chocolate milkshake, please." The colt didn't pay any attention to Anon's bad jokes. "I will have a medium hayburger with a side of hayfries. No drink, please." Twilight said, giving Anon a disapproving look. It was those kinds of jokes that made everypony...

...Matty had spent far too much money on the evening they'd have together. It was some pretentious restraunt that he hadn't ever heard of until she had suggested they go there for a date night. Date nights, though, never really turned out in his favor. They ended with an argument or disagreement that droned on for a few days. He didn't suspect reservations to be over a hundred quid per person, and upon researching a bit about the place, he learned that the food and drinks could cost even more. There was a bar, though, and he could never turn down an offer like that. He had to rent a tuxedo as well, as it was one of those black tie, or whatever people called it, policies. He assumed he hadn't worn a tuxedo since a wedding he had attended as...

...Rhetorical Analysis: Why Tipping is Wrong Tipping is seen as a financial support for food-industry workers. However, people are against this practice and wanting to get rid of it. Helping do so, an idea of a state minimum wage has appeared. Except, tipping has been a normal practice through history appreciating someone’s hard work. Except, a New York restraunt owner Danny Meyer wants to get rid of tipping. While the idea of a $15 minimum wage will replace tipping and give a better support for these workers. While, there’s also a huge complaint of sexual harassment claims from the waitress as they have to put up with degrading and intolerable customers. The practice of tipping workers has been seen through history. In Europe, tipping originated in aristocratic homes. When it finally made its way to America, the expression of tipping was to tell another they did a good job. It soon made its way into the working system and has been a financial support for most waitress. Except, “it called the practice undemocratic and un-American.” (Saru Jayaraman) Leading to “a powerful anti-tipping movement” (Saru Jayaraman) meaning the idea of getting rid of this practice has been around for some time now....

Oven – 20 patties every 4 minutes or 300 patties an hour Burger Assemblers – 2 burgers ever 40 seconds or 180 burgers per hour Cashier – 10 customers her minute or 600 customers per hour The capacity of the restaurant is 3 customers per minute or 180 customers per hour. The bottlenecks are the burger assemblers. b) (5 points) If two more burger assembler is hired, what is the capacity of the burger store? What is the bottleneck? Since two more assemblers are hired the restraunt is capable of producing 4 burgers over 40 seconds or 6 burgers per minute. In a span of an hour they can produce 360 burgers, so the new bottleneck would be the oven. Likewise, the capacity of the restaurant increases to 300 customers per hour. c) (5 points) Disregarding part b), if the restaurant buys another oven,[2] what is the capacity of the restaurant? What is the bottleneck? The capacity will still remain at 180 customers per hour, because the bottleneck will still be the assemblers. Q2 (25 points): Q 2.5 on page 42 of the textbook.

...Most people when they start working at restraunt will always start out at the lowest level. Most the time the reason for this is so you learn everything from the door to your own office. Starting out as a hostess or host will help you get better acquainted with future customers and with yourself helping you to open up and see things from a stand back point of view actually observing your surroundings. Then you would be promoted to a serve learning menus what ingredients are in what and what your usual customers like. You are able to place food so it looks presentable and make your customers happy. During this time you learn how the food is cooked what garnish goes where and what goes with every meal. Next you may advance to a cook. This steps a little easier now you have the menu memorized and pretty much know what goes with what. Learning how things are cooked is your goal here.

...English Comp II 201 06 21 January 2013 Do Americans really need illegal workers to support our economy? It is a huge issue in America today, illegal immigration and what it means for our economy. The problem is divisive and a political hot potato. It has been discussed for the last thirty plus years and no solutions are in sight. We have some eleven million illegal, undocumented workers in America today and some argue we should round them up and send them home, regardless of the human suffering and others argue that our economy would collapse or at least be seriously harmed if we send them home. According to Colin Powell, we need them because they are the lifeblood that is keeping this country going forward. Without immigrants we would be like Japan or Europe with an aging population and no young people coming in. According to the secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack, the price of food in the United States would cost three, four or five times more than it does now without the labor of illegal immigrants. Former Presidential candidate Ron Paul advocated physically securing our borders, enforcing visa rules, offer no amnesty for illegal aliens currently in this country, and end birthright citizenship. So which is it? Do we really need these workers or should we send them home? I looked at a number of sources and have chosen to start with an article taken from Business Time.com published on 1/30/2013. I liked this article because it covered several big questions concerning...

In order to remain competitive within the market Coca-Cola Amatil tend to avoid using just one pricing strategy.

The industry that deals in casinos is also known as the gaming industry.
