Reserving a seat year-round at Burger King

The BK Lounge will let you do that, but those are few and far between.

But Valentine’s Day at White Castle comes close.

Naw man, you gotta go straight to the Maitre D’ for that kind of service.

There was some old list, probably in GQ or something equally stupid, of things you should have to be an adult. One is have a restaurant where they know you.

I think they excepted fast food places specifically.

Hah!

Where are you from/at?

I first heard that term when I moved to Tuskegee, AL, USA, in 1990 (so that was before De La Soul used it).

In my 3 years living there, I never heard anyone use the words “Burger King”–it was always “BK Lounge”.

Every Saturday for the last several months, I’ve been taking Mo the dog to Sonic, where I get a breakfast burrito and she gets a side of bacon.

I generally get the same parking slot (viewable from the door), and when I hit the red button, Laurie says “the usual?” and I say “yep”.

Originally started because Mo only got rides in my car to see the vet, so I wanted her to have generally good impressions of riding with me. Now, she can tell it’s Saturday because we’re the only ones up, and at some point she comes over to me with the “it’s bacon time” look on her face, and off we go.

I’m ashamed to admit I first heard it in a Dane Cook bit on SiriusXM.

Mom and I go to Burger King every Sunday morning for breakfast, and we prefer to sit in the car and listen to the radio rather than have to watch the station that that location has on all day that’s laughingly called a news station.

I assume this is being arranged as the reward for the second place salesman in the office.

Third place is you get to be the fry cook.

Sonic dog…i think I’ve seen you two

I’ve done my share of work with franchises and, effectively, you’ll have to get permission of corporate when you wish to deviate from their standard operations model. And this is almost never given, except under rare circumstances.

Maybe try designating the men’s room as your office, at least for interacting with local high-schoolers.

(In retrospect, Fonzie was a little creepy).
