[CS Lounge] Pining for the Fjords

Management is often the root of problems rather than a solution.

Anyone who has worked with factory production long enough has seen “Just in Time” inventory theories result in missed customer deliveries. ISO (pick a number) always looks good on paper. Likely nobody here is old enough to remember QLP, they come and go.

Weather minimal staffing is another trendy management monster, or just your management being cheep or incompetent, you have my sympathy (for whatever good that does).
As my father often said, “this too shall pass”.

Ding ding ding. Winner winner chicken dinner. And it is not my boss. It is the corporate budget.

We have 4 dining halls. So at a bare bones minimum we need 4 employees including the cook. We have the same payroll budget as a facility that has 1 dining hall.

I’ve gotten back into a particular book series I enjoyed as a teen, and I keep telling myself I don’t need every single book in digital format.

In other news, though, how many of you like mushrooms and/or onions? This is a heated topic of debate in my guild.

Ditto; I’ve been re-reading the Deverry cycle again, and I first got into that as either a teen or in early college. Given that there’s 15 books in the series, it’ll take me a while to get through it. >_>

Love mushrooms but only like raw onions, not slimy cooked ones.

Love both of them. Where do I fall on the debate?

You fall on the good taste part of the debate. Too many of my guild won’t eat mushrooms… more for us, then.

I love mushrooms and onions both. My roommate, who does most of the cooking, hates both. Alas, this means that I tend to go without. :frowning:

Hey guys! Hope you all having a good afternoon!

Not sure what the weather is like where you all live, But hopefully better than mine as my area is currently under a severe thunderstorm warning.

As I see you are talking about mushrooms - My favorite ones to eat are at my local buffet here in town. They make awesome mushrooms to enjoy! :slight_smile:

This. I also hate the smell of them cooking. Love onions, especially the red/purple ones. Sadly, allergic to both onion and mushroom.
