Correct. They make it possible for someone to fast track through their system to become a manager and then later down the road, advance from day to day restaurant operations to jobs tied to corporate. I bet a number of the workforce at corporate in SA once flipped. burgers before climbing the ladder.
HEB is a similar.Yeah, HEB headquarters is stocked full of former store workers that have been with the company since they were baggers. I've never encountered more loyal employees full of corporate pride in my life. The company has been good to them so I get why they all drink the company kool-aid.

Whataburger's are usually well run and customer friendly stores compared to most fast food places. The managers are usually adults and appear to make a decent wage.
I am curious if that will continue or will they cut costs and start hiring cheaper teenage store managers. Having a responsible adult running the place is what separates Whataburger and Chik-fil-a from Jack in the Box and Wendy's.

#4. But have them grill the jalapeños and onions. And if you ask for it on Texas toast instead of a bun, nobody would criticize you.
This is my default order at Whataburger. The grilled onions and jalapenos are life changing.

A Coke?
Some dick head cut me and my roommate off while driving into Austin on 35 just north of San Marcos back '94. We pulled up to him and I slammed a Big Red off of the driver's side window of his car. Throwing a soda at someone's car on the highway is pretty satisfying.

Out of curiosity, does any of y'all's school districts have baseball for middle school? Ours does, Comal ISD has had middle school baseball for about 6 years now.
The program was first installed when my oldest was in 8th grade. There was a pretty good relationship between the middle school program and select baseball but it seems to have soured recently. When my oldest played, the middle school team was made up of a mix of 14U Majors and AAA players and by the time my youngest played, half the players were mostly former Little League players.
A lot of the select kids avoided middle school baseball over the last couple of years because of the lack of competition and interference with select baseball. Personally, I put a lot of value on community baseball so all of mine played middle school and select but select took a backseat to school baseball.

I thought we'd get to see forever
But forever's gone away
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterdayI don't know where this road
Is going to lead
All I know is where we've been
And what we've been throughIf we get to see tomorrow
I hope it's worth all the wait
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday-

Hard to ignore the parallels across the globe over the last 10 years. Most notably in Europe (Poland, Italy, GB (Brexit), and even France), as well as here in the USA, a pattern of deep division has set in. How much of this has been the product of an orchestrated effort by totalitarian enemies (Russia, China), and how much of it is the simple shittiness of the human race?
It seems that the commonality with all of the nationalist movements is class tension.
People aren't assholes, they are pissed because they are experiencing economic pain and are lashing out against organizations they believe is creating their pain. The European Commission and European Central Bank are capable of making policies that have a direct impact on the economies of Europe and Britain, considering some of the decision makers are from Germany or France, you can imagine how a Brit barely getting by might view these organizations as foreign unelected technocrats. Then you have the IMF get involved in already struggling economies under the agreement with the IMF that austerity programs will be implemented. More pain on top of pain.
Imagine an international organization that is heavily influenced by China coming to assist the economy of the United States but only if the U.S. reduces Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security benefits. The sense of foreign oppression would be pretty powerful.
It makes sense that people living on the margins would resent outside economic influence and demand that their nation takes care of its own.
It also makes sense that most of us that are fairly well off and are not experiencing economic pain don't understand it and write it off as people being assholes.

I came into the thread to make a comment about Oklahoma but you covered it. I appreciate your self awareness as an Oklahoman.

Are you just against the tenets of fascism but ok with the authoritarianism?

Far more insidiously, it is a view that we use to defend and even promote our cruel social and economic policies. It's the conservative's excuse for religious totalitarianism, economic stratification, and mass incarceration.
This is an interesting point. Brisket's view of man is very much aligned with the conservative mindset. One of the pillars of conservativism is that the nature of man is inherently depraved and without strong social institutions to enforce morality, society would plunge into chaos. It is the reason conservatives support so many oppressive social policies. Its also why they consider everyone in opposition to their policies to be naive concerning the nature of man.

probably splitting hairs, but they don't own the team in that they don't have any vested interest in the profitability of the team. that was the point i was speaking to when someone gave the hypothetical of MLB clubs shouldn't care about MiLB records because they're development leagues for the big league club.
Ok, I get what you were saying now and I agree.

the point's moot. major league teams don't own their minor league affiliates.
I believe the MLB teams own the players and coaches contracts. The name, stadium, concessions, etc belong to the minor league franchise. If you control the players and coaches, you essentially own the team.

Disagree that minor leagues is where the overall goal is to develop. You should then argue the same then for college, high school and every youth baseball league. Don't worry about winning, just worry about developing so that you can play MLB one day.
Every single baseball game should be played to win. Otherwise don't keep score.
Now in every sport there is a point that the game is out of hand and the result is 99.999% locked in. In that situation, I think it's fair to back off. But if you think about it, a no-hitter while up 15-0 then isn't as impressive as a 1-0 no-hitter. The 1-0 no-hitter had batters actually trying to get a hit until the end. The 15-0 guy may have had it handed to him for the last few innings.
MiLB is a subsidized developmental league specially developing players for the Majors. Many of the players in MiLB are only there to provide competition for the players that are expected to make it to the Majors.
There is no comparison to college baseball but in high school baseball a similar comparison can be made to the Varsity and Junior Varsity relationship. The coaches don't put much value on the JV win/loss record and will not hesitate to pull one of the best JV players to fill a need for the Varsity because JV is for developing players for Varsity where the wins mean more.

Kawhi was not a major factor when the Spurs took down the Heat. Kawhi didn't take down the Spurs but ran off like a little bitch and the Raptors beat a very wounded Warriors team. Kawhi is a very good player but he hasn't ended shit.

So does the Raptors get invited to the White House? Do Canadian teams rostered with Americans get an invite? They probably shouldn't get invited because Kawhi might shit in a corner of the White House, not for political reasons but because Kawhi is a semi-functional retard.

It is unclear how much influence Mr Greear wields over the convention’s disparate parts. It is also not obvious how, in practical terms, he can expect to wean his brethren off party politics without revising the tenets of the 1979 resurgence, which he claims to support. So long as Southern Baptists put fighting abortion and gay rights before the acts of grace and social justice they once gave equal billing to, they have only one party to support: the Republicans, whose shrinking, white coalition is the future they are trying to escape. Mr Greear can clearly see that looming cliff-edge. He just cannot bring himself to hit the brake.◼
Yeah, it's probably not happening. That's exactly why I stopped attending. I started going elsewhere.
It's too bad Escriva is not here to retort that evangelical voters are the most ethical.
What the hell am I doing?
It's not bad! It's great that he's not here with his army of strawmen, his impermeable wall of BS, and his stubborn refusal to answer the fucking question.
Nope. I don't miss that shit even a little.
Sack might be along to hold up the banner of the SBC. Pretty soon the SBC will be down to the Sacks, Tahoes, and Escrivas. Some of their progeny might leave, but bitter and angry men will continue to have a church home.
The SBC purge happened nearly two generations ago. The last major purge of "liberal" Southern Baptists was in the late 80's. There is no opposition in the SBC, there is nobody left to stand up because they were sent packing decades ago. These articles come out every year when the convention is held and its evident that the SBC drove off the cliff a long time ago and there is no coming back.
