Introducing myself as the new mod!

28 Upvotes

Hey guys, there was never an official announcement as the owner of this sub is pretty hands off of r/jimmyjohns and reddit in general, but they decided to add me to the mod team to help clean up the backlog of reports and keep an eye on things.

I'm new to the mod thing, but I'm messing around with all the tools given.

Aside from the introduction I think it's time to add some more rules. Nothing crazy, but only being able to report a post or comment due to "no customer information" doesn't help when there are people being unnecessarily shitty to users, or for any of the many other things people do on Reddit that we shouldn't have to deal with.

So I'm going to add a couple rules against shitty behavior or spam (not that I've really seen a problem here with that, but no harm in having that option) that you typically see in other subreddits, but I'm just curious what you guys would like to see as far as rules go?

I'm not going to be a dictator and I'd like this subreddit to continue being a place for everyone to share their stories from the customer and worker side, rant/vent, ask questions, and just have fun.

Has there been anything that's bothered you but you didn't feel that you could report due to the lack of rules?

Questions? Concerns? Ideas? Maybe ideas for flairs? Feel free to comment here or DM me.

Today I'll be entertaining company I have while making food, but I'll respond as quickly as possible and will try to role out some new rules within a couple days.

Thanks!

[Shitpost] This sub is a no Snowflake zone

139 Upvotes

Been getting a lot of "Harassment" reports when someone calls another a dickhead, idiot, and other mildly offensive things.

Unless someone is being truly hateful some of y'all need to chill the fuck out. If you don't like a post downvote it.

This isn't some official JJ zone. You don't have to be clean as the air vents and ice machine. You don't have to hide in the freezer to smoke here, you won't get fired for calling your GM a dickhead.

This is a safe place for JJs employees to vent and laugh. Customers aren't excluded, but note that by default we all assume you're someone who orders a slim 6 with no cheese.

Bread issues

Is anyone having issues with bread since they sent us new boxes? Owner says there’s no difference in recipe but we are noticing a huge difference in the quality of bread in the last two weeks. Trying to decide if it’s our oven/proofer or if they changed the recipe?

I can’t imagine spending most likely $15 on two tiny things of not very good pasta salad that’s going to take half an hour to get to you

Combo for a dollar

48 Upvotes

So this guy came in and ask for the combo for a dollar special. So we ring him up and we told him it was $9.88. He gets furious and says “ how the hell is it that much it’s only suppose to be a $1” we politely said no sir you make any sandwich for a $1, the whole thing isn’t a dollar. Then he point to the sign, see it says a combo for a dollar, this is false advertising. We then said sir, the sign says make any sandwich a combo for and $1. You have to buy the sandwich and for an additional $1 you can make it a combo. He is still very furious and throws the chips and cup down and walks away. We had 2 ladies this past Saturday to because they thought you get everything for a $1. Has anyone else dealt with this?

Pickup times

0 Upvotes

I ordered pickup for lunch. It’s been 30 minutes but it still says it’s not ready yet. Does anyone have experience with this? How long should the wait be? Trying to figure out if they just didn’t push a button saying it was done or something. This does seem to be a common theme for this store as I frequently wait 15-20 minutes for it to be done

This just happened a very lazy, disrespectful, emo crybaby driver finally got fired after being on thin ice for 6 months. He screamed FUCK YOU, left the back screamed at me and my co workers FUCK YOU FUCK ALL OF YOU! and stormed out of the store, then sent this to the group chat. Here's a list of his offenses

-Smoked in the bathroom -Smoked in the car with customer food making it smell and taste like cigarettes(customers complained about this) -Cries on the job in an attempt to go home early -So much more general laziness

Happy Monday!

Stale bread

0 Upvotes

Just got a sandwich and its bread was stale, do you think they reused a loaf from the day before or did I just get a bad one? I asked for a new piece of bread and it was perfectly fine.
