    I've never been to Popeye's so I'm hoping for the full experience when I do go.

    A Denver/Portland Popeyes isn’t gonna be as hectic as one in the South.

    I waited 20 minutes with 3 cars in front of me before they took that person's order. Turned out they had sold out before I got to the speaker and I was too dumb to realize those people had peeled off out of line.

    For sure, I think it definitely shows how unaware people are of what low level cooks without formal culinary training at the majority of restaurants in America look like at the end of a shift though.

    They make minimum wage and most of them bust their asses for long hours in a hot and largely thankless environment - I guess my point is while yes it sucks, it's certainly not an anomaly in the industry.

    That's where you go to get approved as a franchisee and go through all the training stuff, meet the Directors, etc. - but the headquarters is in Miami and it's owned by a Canadian firm that also owns Burger King.

    It was definitely started in Nola though by Al Copeland.

    This was my thought about the workers at the store too. 2 weeks ago they were casually serving 7 or 8 guests for lunch. Now they have lines wrapped around the building.
