Burrito season, according to Chipotle, runs from March to May
And, here I was stupidly referring to this time period as Spring!
But everyone know that’s when burritos are at their freshest.
Wait, spring? I called that autumn :O
Are you Australian?
Worse; Brazilian
Yup
Worst job I’ve ever had. Just an endless stream of people with no self control asking for “moaarr!” More chicken, more more more. And then their burrito is too fucking fat to wrap it up, so you wrap a big pile of slop into a little square of foil that’s busting at the seams. It’s a gross trough of slop that people stand over and gleet into with their mouth noises while poking the glass pointing at ingredients with their dirty fingers.
Stop, I can only get so aroused
They should order the burrito bowl, it has more room for gluttony.
The trick is getting an overloaded burrito bowl and then two tortillas on the side.
Two burritos for barely more than the cost of one.
This is well placed marketing for Chipotle recruiting, restaurant turnover is often 200 or 300% year over year. That means the turn the entire staff of a given place over 2 or 3 times year. They have to do this all the time.
Citation: I worked at a chain that bragged about having only ~100% turnover year over year.
Chipotle needs to open for breakfast. They already have all the ingredients for breakfast tacos if they add eggs. Idiotas.
They did a test run at my airport some years ago, but I don't think it took off. Sadly, I never got to check it out for myself.

Edit: Here's what they offered:
From the article:
now is a good time for restaurants to expanding their morning menus.
unga-bunga, English hard.
But when is Burrito BOWL season?
Ah Burrito season, where my local place makes chipotle look like garbage!
"season"? I eat at least two a week from my local taquerias
If you are eating them year round they are obviously not freshly picked from the tree, most likely stored in a climate controlled warehouse with nitrogen gas.
I mean you wouldn't eat spaghetti out of season would you?
They got plans for those employees after the "season?"
Cutting hours until they quit, probably.
I thought burrito season was over.
If they just paid people $25+ / hour, they might not have as many people quit.
Great news for those Citi and Microsoft employees that just got laid off.
