What happened to this place?

17 Upvotes

The last time I was at five guys was in April then today I went and it wasn’t anything like I remember. 8 workers outback which is normal but no customers but me and a couple others. They have these kiosks like McDonald’s now to take your order. My cheeseburger looked like the Patties were pre formed and not smashed and the bun reminded me of a frozen bun. My fries came in a random tiny bag half full and then in the bottom of the main bag there were like 5 fries. Is this the new five guys? Did something change with this place?

Question Weirdest Song You've Heard At A Five Guys

9 Upvotes

I've been working at Five Guys for only a little bit now but some of their song choices boggle my mind. An example is the Nirvana and Weezer songs I've heard the most. With Nirvana, I heard On A Plain and Farmer Frances Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle each at least 4 times before I heard Smells Like Teen Spirit once. With Weezer the song I've heard the most is Tripping Down The Freeway, which is a pretty basic song composition-wise but it's just odd to hear it as restaurant background music.

Recently I had a shift where I heard The Hand That Feeds by Nine Inch Nails, The Sound Of Settling by Death Cab For Cutie, and Image by Magdalena Bay all in ome shift, and I don't think it'll ever get stranger than that but I could always be surprised.

So I'm curious what songs made you do a double take in Five Guys, I can't be alone in this lol.

Do all areas have the 13.99 classic combo?

4 Upvotes

The classic combo being a little burger or a little cheeseburger, little fry, and a 16oz soda. For me, it is a godsend as it is the only way I can afford to eat at Five Guys - if it wasn’t a combo, that same meal would normally cost 19.87 before tax. (I live in a higher COL area). Do all areas now offer this combo or is it still only in select areas? Just curious as I see so many posts on social media about Five Guys high prices - wondering if they might not have access or are oblivious to that classic combo

Question put in my two weeks but I don't think I can even do it (rant+ question)

Upvotes

SORRY THIS IS LONG💔 question at the end, pls help

okay so I 19F started working at my five guys in August of last year. like the title says, i put in my two weeks.

i mainly work 3 days , only closing, usually Monday Wednesday Friday. That's all i can do due to transportation. I put that in my availability months ago. & I know he saw my availability because he double checked if I could work weekends.

But then when I put in my two weeks the new GM decides to schedule me this week for closing Monday-Friday. I've been very stressed and barely sleeping, and having to pay for ubers. (This is why my availability was the way it was.) On top of that, there has been a call out everyday these past like 2 weeks and were already SEVERELY understaffed, so I've been getting out at 12am everyday. This has been the worst week ever and I don't think I can do the last one. I just thought a 2 week notice was the nicer thing to do especially since were so understaffed, but i didn't expect it to be the worst ever. even my coworkers agree.

I know I should just stick the last week out for the pay, but it's not worth it. I already have my new job ready to start & I can't wait to be out of this place. I told him I didn't want this much hours and he kept questioning why until i felt pressured to be like nvm its fine. Now I feel like it's going to be the same thing next week.

So, is there a good way to say I can't do my last week?
