"I hate how we’re having free taco days in the middle of a pandemic why would we encourage more people to come to our store and risk us catching the virus?!"

"I never thought about how giving away the free taco could easily be our increased pay. I agree with this! In this pandemic, we should not be so stressed on window times!"

"No extra money for us and their sales have went up 30%, but then instead of hooking us up, they give EVERYONE ELSE free tacos. Then we gotta do triple the work cuz of all the extra sanitation"

"We are not being compensated with hazard pay... Encouraging people to come out just to get a free taco is putting our lives and the lives of our families at unnecessary risk."
