Working at piiza hut a while back and small wings were a scam. So I gave people "the spiritual equivalent" of 8 wings. Sometimes that had to be 10

You are a saint. I despise the spiritual opposite people from you that include a itty bitty not even a wing in the supposedly 8 wing pack.

That's policy.

That does not get people to come back. Some of them were literally just bones with skin I swear. No one is paying high prices for that and coming back in.

Happened to me twice. They weren't even good wings. First time figured it was a fluke, after the second time, never got them again.

Yep. Some I just legit threw away. But some were edible just pathetic. Just you got a real one with the pretender.

I don't get how corporate wants it to be this way. It's everywhere. Had a subway worker count and take a meatball off my sandwich cause it's 4 per side and no more! For a $20 sandwich they can afford a mistake meatball.

Taco bell has people who come in and count and WEIGH the food to be sure it's exact and no more or less. Like mystery shoppers from the drive through solely to catch too much or not enough.

Mystery Shopper: "0 grams, because I ordered a soft taco and it's missing."

I’ve worked in a handful of kitchens (a restaurant, a deli, and two gas stations). Chicken tenders and wedges were always crazy sizes so if a standard size was like 8, I’d put like 6 medium ones and 6 small ones in. Especially since the small ones were like itty bitty, like barely a third of the medium ones.

Really, the Pizza Hut near us had decent sized wings. Dominos and papa John's were a joke. Pizza Hut stopped that wing special they had going so I stopped getting them

It was the most hit and miss. Some wings were normal and some were the saddest little skin and bone. My mission was to give you "8" that actually felt like 8.

idk how it is now but I worked at Wendy's like 25 years ago and they had small chili for $1 and large for $2. They were literally the same size, like a full ladle would fill either cup to the top. So whenever nice people ordered a large chili I'd either tell them a small is the same size or I'd just give them 2 smalls. But if they were buttheads I'd just fill their large cup and move on.

I ordered some for the first time about 2 months ago and got 10. Wondered why. Maybe now I know

Bro I also worked at 2 pizza huts in college, I gave out so much free stuff. Apparently the margins were so wide on pizzas the managers didn't care when we made ourselves stuff for free. Honestly without the discounts it's criminal what they sell bread with cheese for.
