Did DTC Go Bankrupt?

Well, this is what paying fast food workers $15-20/hour does. Libs cannot say they didn't see this coming. Oh wait, money grows on trees so they didn't see it coming.

I stil see long lines at pretty much every fast food drive thru these days. However, it's much easier to get a table at peak time at many sit-down restaurants.

So yes, I do believe people are eating more at home. But they're hitting more drive-thrus and taking it home to avoid paying triple digits for a family at a sit-down restaurant.

We seldom eat sit-down these days. We did last week at Chili's, but only because we had gift cards. For all 5 of us, it would have been over $100 including tip.

When we do go for fast food, the most expensive for us is Qdoba. They're now at $60 for a family of 5 and that's without a fountain drink. Even Chick-fil-a has cleared $50 for us with drinks (screw off DTC). And you cannot cut corners either. You can order more "ala-carte" but it barely knocks anything off the total if any at all.

The left destroys everything it touches.
The only thing the left builds is big government.

They did see it coming but they don't care about the consequences because their goal is big government control.

If you can’t afford to eat at McDonalds then you have bigger problems, like you need a better job. Deal with it. Stop blaming your personal failures on everyone else. Try fixing a healthy meal at home occasionally and you might stop being such a fat stupid bitch.

"Blaming your personal failures on everyone else"

You just described the base of your party.

You equate the left-wing "victim" mentality with me pointing out your party's BS?

The term "MAGA" was used before by Bill Clinton.
The type of individual who doesn't like that term, is an easily duped and manipulated cult follower..

Cults are "left-wing", same with communes, communism, socialism, Marxism, fascism, etc...
ALL collectives, top down government control.
Arizona senator kyrsten Sinema bolted from your criminally corrupt left-wing party.
Dr. Dershowitz's. Leftist cult friends have completely disowned him for life.
The freaks on college campuses across the country, are crazed left-wing cult following democrats.
Cults are "anti-liberty" totalitarian.
And just for the record, president trump has always been a liberty loving capitalist , the EXACT OPPOSITE of a cult.

You guys have been running the same lies forever.
Are you really brainwashed by your left-wing cult?
Or just an angry drunk democrat?

For all 5 of us, it would have been over $100 including tip.

That’s like one of those NFL hazing stories where they make the rookie pick up the check. You sure the bill was accurate and you weren’t overcharged?

He must have been conned because we know that he probably didn't put down more than a Lincoln for the tip.

Chances are excellent that he left no tip at all.

As usual you assholes are both wrong.

We tip 20% CASH plus more if earned. If we include it on the credit card receipt (the tip line), the restaurant takes out taxes. Something most people are not aware of.

Sorry, my bad.

But there are plenty of dirtbags who "stiff" their waitresses.
Ever watch. "Reservoir Dogs? "
The scene where. Mr. PInk absolutely refuses to tip his waitress?
There are many many degenerate scumbags like Mr. PInk running around amongst us.

They should be considered "pariahs" and ostracized from normal society.

Always tip cash if possible. Much better for your server.

I'd rather be kicked in the balls by Ray Guy in his prime than eat at Chilis.
