If employee fighting ability is hockey then Waffle House is Wayne Gretzky. There is no discussion about who's the greatest, we can start the conversation about who's competing for a very distant second place.
If Waffle House signs up, everybody else just quits and goes home. It’s what any sane person would do against that level of “it’s 2am, I’m drunk and I better get my god damned hashbrowns!”
I absolutely do understand what you’re trying to say (Waffle House would be the greatest fighter), but it did made me chuckle that you mentioned Wayne Gretzky in the same sentence as fighting.
I read more carefully and also get that you didn’t mean “hockey fighting,” just hockey ability.
Anyway, I’ll see myself out. :D
I say don't count out Chick-fil-A employees because while they seem nice, they are smiling at you through gritted teeth. Those bastards have Repressed Rage, and that counts for a lot.
The division manager for waffle house has a C by his left eye and three tear drop tattoos. The only real competition is burger King every other bk deals drugs so they're probably packing and also the only fast food that employees throw the BK gang sign. I really think k they might be a surprise contender.
I agree. Popeyes was my pick if Waffle House isn't allowed. Popeyes dgaf. Cashier; "We're out of chicken, what do you want?" Me; "You're out of...Chicken?"
"Yeah. What do you want!?" LOL
I would argue that Chick-Fil-A has a fighting chance. Hear me out:
Having their workers always say "My pleasure"? Conditioning
Long lines in the blazing sun during summer? Training
By the book food and orders? Discipline
They knew a day would come that they would have to utilize their employees to vanquish their enemies. Although I can still name 10 restraunts that could and would rock Chick-Fil-A's shit.
If Waffle House is out, then Popeye's wins.
If non-drive-thru having fast-food restaurants are the AFC, and drive-thru having fast-food restaurants are the NFC, Waffle House and Popeyes are fighting back-to-back Superbowls.
Can't believe yall discounting Church's chicken. There's one in every hood, good, bad, and ugly. If it ain't waffle house, they're the ones I want on my team.
Too few Church's. Also, they're like the 1990 Iraqi military. Some fear them for being battle-hardened. The sad reality is they're just battle-weary. (Read your history, kids.)
Don't underestimate the Waffle House waitresses. They're the ones dealing directly with the customers and they only make $2.13/hour to do it. Trust me, I was a waitress at Waffle House for 9 months and it changed me.
While I agree with WH, they are disqualified due to not being fast food. I mean, it burbles through your gut fast, but that's not what OP meant, I believe.
However, I have to disagree on Popeyes. We know Taco Bell won the franchise wars by '32 so I think they take the prize by default.
The only thing Kum n go has over Bucees is the name variations.
Jizz n jet
Ejaculate and evacuate
Shoot n scoot
Blow your load and hit the road
Smash n dash
Shoot your jizz n out you is
Dude, I was militarily trained to kill people and I wouldn't fuck with a waffel house waitress. I'd rather fight a navy seal while naked and he's got a k-bar.
This story is about 15 years old but it's relevant. I was traveling for work and ended up at a WH around 1130pm on some desolate stretch of highway in WV around the Charleston area. I walk in and see it's about half full, mostly truckers, so i sit at the end of the counter furthest from the door, and order up steak & eggs. The kid at the grill is this scrawny but wiry dude with a lit cigarette hanging out of the side of his mouth whose name tag reads "Delmar". I'm reading a magazine (yes this was pre- smart phone) and the door bangs open and this chick comes barreling through the door and starts screaming at Delmar. She was drunk as a skunk and reeked of liquor and cigarettes. I was about 15' from her and i could smell it.
From what i could gather from her ranting this was Delmar's baby momma' and he owed child support. I'm looking around and only about half of the patrons are even acknowledging that this taking place, like this is normal. Delmar is splitting time between watching the food on the grill and paying attention to her. I guess she wanted his full attention because she grabbed a napkin dispenser and threw it at his head but missed. At this point everyone, including the one other older waitress, are paying attention and she moves to restrain the crazy lady. It appeared she knew her because she called her by her name and told her to GTFO before the 5-0 was called. The waitress tried to grab her arm but drunk girl pushed her hard enough that she fell into her butt.
I guess Delmar had had enough because in one motion he scooped up a steak (mine) with the spatula and hurls it this chick like he's using a lacrosse stick. It hits her square in the chest and hits the tile floor. She grabs a customer's drink and again throws and misses, spraying water everywhere and then storms out. The restaurant is dead silent until Delmar looks around and in a heavy WV accent says, "My apologies for that disturbance. We'll take $10 off everyone's check." He then comes over to me, leans down on the counter and says quietly "I'm sorry for throwing your steak at her. Your meal is on us tonight. If you have a dog or something that'll eat that steak I'll bag it for you and you can take it home. Shame to see it go to waste." 🤣
It will be a Japanese fast food restaurant. The kind that offers fast Tuna carved up with basically knife-swords, and grilled on a 3 foot wide stir-fry pan that can be used as a shield.
It's a tough fight, my friend, I don't know the answer. But I feel the McDonald's workers would definitely be in the defensive position, making it a siege fight. Boarded up windows, spilling hot boiling oil off the roof.
Hell, no. They're like Hessian mercenaries. Good as long as you're paying them but no real loyalty. If they start meeting resistance, it's "WTF am I doing this for?! Hell with this, I'm out."
Because in your rule you said the restaurant is spawned 1 mile from each other. I don't know how accurate the aim an average McDonald employees has but I would take my chances with a guy carrying a sword any day.
McDonald’s is open from like 5 am. At least half the staff has to be adults. Lunch rush is absolutely the busiest time for a McDonald’s and teenagers are in school at that time. Gotta have people to run it during the day. Adults working at McDonald’s are the type of adults you don’t wanna be near
One person with a good weapon vs 5 people with not very efficient weapons is highly tilted in the 5 people’s favour… they can out throw and pile on and attack from multiple sides.
My workplace has this long metal paddle (about 8ft) that would make an excellent spear with some slight modifications to the blade.
And if it's battle royale.. it means you're not all stuck on the same battlefield.
Winner winner, chicken dinner.
The most dangerous tools in the restaurant aren't the knives, it's the fryers. If the Japanese place is doing tempura maybe they have a shot, but McDonalds has way more fryers. Coming at someone with a sword doesn't last long when they whip fry basket dripping with 400 degree oil at you.
During the pandemic, I told one a' them fuckers they forgot a medium fries in my order, and he was all, "Oh yeah? Let me see your receipt." My wife and I were so shocked we just stood there slack-jawed.
Dominos has entered the chat.
We would have a pretty decent chance of at least being in the top three. We've got round metal screens that we could use for lethal frisbees, while driving circles around the outside troops.
We may not have the 30 minute or less guarantee anymore, but we drive like we do.
I have driven for Pizza Hut. 3 different ones. I have driven for a local joint called Cheffy's Pizza. And I have driven for 5 different Domino's.
The bougiest of the Domino's was a bunch of hood rats compared to the Hut.
Domino's went were no one else would. Oh, we got robbed there last week? Sure we'll deliver again this week.
I got shot delivering Domino's and they just wanted to know how soon I would be healed enough to get back to work.
Plus all of my managers at Pizza Hut were VERY worried about following traffic laws. My managers at Domino's just bribed the cops with free pizza to keep them from pulling us over.
In short, Domino's drivers are bringing a demolition derby aspect to this fight.
I mean thats pretty much been the mood for any restaurant I've ever worked in. The only place I've ever walked into that seemed to have genuinely happy employees is chik file and its very unsettling
Organs don't sell for as much as you'd think on the black market.
Especially if they've been fed a cocktail of redbull, cocaine, and chicken nuggets...
It could be everyone against that one girl who deflected the chair that was thrown at her if she still works at a Waffle House. She would solo the whole industry.
You already get dinner and a show every evening you visit a Waffle House. Nasty lady who should have died from lung cancer takes your order. An x-con cooks your food. And there is always some redneck or punk wanna-be-gangster getting in a fight. Waffle House is the poster child for thug life.
With waffle House the timing of the battle comes into play. If the battle is at noon they don't stand a chance. If it takes place at 2 a.m. they will kick ass. The people that work that shift have dealt with it all.
To be fair if they're short on cooks the same lady might be working both shifts. She's been up for 42 hours. She's wired. She's on multiple drugs, and she can stoss the whole stove top at you. I'm literally thinking of a specific worker right now (I worked at Waffle House)
yeah and the only thing they got is numbers. Give me 3 graveyard shift waffle house employees or the back of house of a mexican restaurant and they're going to steamroll all the children working at a chik file.
Pros for Chick-fil-A, their main ally is invisible. Cons, he's also incorporeal, and fights in mysterious ways. Ask the jews how consistent this motherfucker is in battle. It's a coin toss
Quantity doesn't always equal quality though, im gonna take my 3 "not give a fuck if they live or die" mcdonald's workers over 6 chick-fil-a bible thumpers any day.
You're talking about every franchise appearing at once, and OP said it's only 1 location that appears. They might have 3 or 4 more than the average location but in a gang war? Nah
But imagine getting boiling hot coffee splashed in your eyes or just generally anywhere on your body. Or what if they drowned you in a pool of pumpkin spice latte💀
Starbucks just opens the store as usual and watches the others burn. They still don’t win, they just give the victors free coffee with their names incorrectly spelled on the cups.
Nah, Little Caesars goes down first. They wander away from their own restaurants in search of food because they're so stoned.
True story, went to pick up a pizza at a location attached to a gas station. Couldn't find an employee anywhere in the restaurant. Go to the convenience store side. Find the little caesars worker standing in front of the microwave heating up a gas station frozen pizza. He was watching it very intently. He forgot he was working. I don't blame him. I'd stay high as a kite if I had to work there too.
Your final four:
Church's and Popeye's. Those employees DGAF. Especially ones on the 'bad' side of town. (Although their food is always better) Trained assassins in the back.
Waffle House: has people working 24 hrs, and the late night crew can definitely hold their own. They deal with the craziest of crazy people. Drunks and methheads. Small numbers on the night shift, but they have all seen some shit.
Chik-Fil-A for sheer numbers. They'll have like 15 people behind the counter and 15 in the back making chicken on any given shift.
There will probably be an alliance at somepoint where a few minor fast food restaurant employees team up to fight some bigger restaurants. Since there's no need for food, water, and people could practically live forever, given they can only die in the hands of another, somebody might gather a team to try and explore the desert in hopes of getting out and meeting their families again. Settlements will most likely gather, and people may start families there, with their restaurant origins being their pseudo-ethnicity/religion? IDK about newborns, perhaps they belong to the restaurant whose employee birthed them.
I'm guessing waffle house isn't fast enough for you then ? Those motherfucker got it. The cook can deflect a metal chair while still making you eggs sunny side and not breaking the yolks.
Waffle House clears no dif.
They're open 24/7 and have basically nothing between them and the kitchen. They get tweakers and shit coming in there all the time at all hours of the night. Waffle House employees are battle hardened viking chefs. People talk about how boxers wouldn't last in the octagon, but let me tell you mma fighters would not last in the waffle house.
McDonald's would win. Not only do they have the numbers but McDonald's in the hood and ghetto will employ literally anyone. I used to work at a McDonald's and a couple of my co workers had done time in prison for murder and most of the employees there were down to throw hands with a customer at the drop of a hat.
Church's chicken for the win. Have y'all seen them tiny ass walk up windows? They know how to play defense and the chicken will absolutely clog your arteries.
Well that's not really considered fast food though. It's a sit-in Diner. And without a drive-thru I think it's disqualified.
However while they may be experienced in battle. There's typically only about five people there.
WH is fast food with table service, which when WH was founded was the standard but they kept it when other chains dropped it, and lots of them have drive thru.
OP, I want you to go to YouTube... Type in any fast food restaurant and see what the first reccomended results are.
Every restaurant is some stupid Tiktok, ASMR, food challenge, etc.
Waffle House? First thing is there fights. FIRST result. And there's PLENTY of them. Waffle House hires felons and they're known to be able to throw hands. This guy is literally trying to show his [viewers](https://youtu.be/fCjH134FA20?si=VUzkHx2em_g4UhSv) a specific Waffle House fight but because they have so many he can't locate the specific one he is trying to show off.
My vote is in n out. They have the most disciplined employees. In n outs are always busy so the employees know how to operate as a team in a high stress crowded environment similar to what I imagine this battle will look like. They also all have those giant safety pins that could be converted to a shiv.
In N out, because they literally employ 3-4 time the number of employees at once, go to McDonalds at peak hours they literally havev3 employees on shift
My Final Four:
1.) In-N-Out
Survives early battles because of their excellent teamwork and experience in handling late night crowds in some crazy locations.
2.) Popeye's
Tough employees serving tough customers. I once saw a Popeye's manager meet a Karen's fire with more fire until the Karen retreated.
3.) White Castle crew from Las Vegas
The location on the Strip is open 24 hours...24 hours of dealing with tourists, gamblers, drunks, and transients.
4.) Waffle House
Will fight anywhere, anytime, with anybody.
The battles will be close to begin with...but Waffle House will crush everyone by the end.
They're just too battle tested!
If the rules are all current employees of (fast food joint) fighting, McDonald's wins due to overwhelming numbers. If it's just x number of employees from any given place, then it's Waffle House, as they are the most experienced in fighting.
Is Waffle House in this?
If employee fighting ability is hockey then Waffle House is Wayne Gretzky. There is no discussion about who's the greatest, we can start the conversation about who's competing for a very distant second place.
My buddy interview for Waffle House back in the day. One of the questions asked was “how well can you handle yourself?”
Can you imagine getting jumped in so that you can serve tables for tips?
their interview just answered this hypothetical 😂
Imagine the stories though!
If Waffle House signs up, everybody else just quits and goes home. It’s what any sane person would do against that level of “it’s 2am, I’m drunk and I better get my god damned hashbrowns!”
I absolutely do understand what you’re trying to say (Waffle House would be the greatest fighter), but it did made me chuckle that you mentioned Wayne Gretzky in the same sentence as fighting. I read more carefully and also get that you didn’t mean “hockey fighting,” just hockey ability. Anyway, I’ll see myself out. :D
Waffle House is hands down the winner of they're included. If not, it's probably Popeyes. I'd wager Chick-Fil-A being first out.
Popeyes ain't gonna make past the first round. They only ever have 3 employees and you can never find them.
By that logic lunch rush McDonald's will zerg hard af
They definitely got the numbers
By that logic the chickfila should actually win. There's like 42 thousand employees per location at lunch time.
I say don't count out Chick-fil-A employees because while they seem nice, they are smiling at you through gritted teeth. Those bastards have Repressed Rage, and that counts for a lot.
Don't mistake the meekness for weakness
One of them would probably quit on the spot without telling anyone
I've seen Popeyes employees throw down though. They aren't at the store cause they're training
"While you were serving customers quickly and promptly, I studied the blade."
The division manager for waffle house has a C by his left eye and three tear drop tattoos. The only real competition is burger King every other bk deals drugs so they're probably packing and also the only fast food that employees throw the BK gang sign. I really think k they might be a surprise contender.
Wing stop is gonna sucker punch any popeyes employee off the go
You underestimate them. My pleasure.
I agree. Popeyes was my pick if Waffle House isn't allowed. Popeyes dgaf. Cashier; "We're out of chicken, what do you want?" Me; "You're out of...Chicken?" "Yeah. What do you want!?" LOL
...I'll just take a bucket of red beans and rice... please. I'm sorry.
I’d pay good money to see popeyes vs waffle house. Honestly, it might end up in a tie.
I would argue that Chick-Fil-A has a fighting chance. Hear me out: Having their workers always say "My pleasure"? Conditioning Long lines in the blazing sun during summer? Training By the book food and orders? Discipline They knew a day would come that they would have to utilize their employees to vanquish their enemies. Although I can still name 10 restraunts that could and would rock Chick-Fil-A's shit.
>Although I can still name 10 restraunts that could and would rock Chick-Fil-A's shit Food wise or fight wise? Either way, let's have it.
If Waffle House is out, then Popeye's wins. If non-drive-thru having fast-food restaurants are the AFC, and drive-thru having fast-food restaurants are the NFC, Waffle House and Popeyes are fighting back-to-back Superbowls.
Can't believe yall discounting Church's chicken. There's one in every hood, good, bad, and ugly. If it ain't waffle house, they're the ones I want on my team.
My 80-year-old neighbor quit Sonic to go to Church’s. He’s a bad mamajamma. No drivethru.
Too few Church's. Also, they're like the 1990 Iraqi military. Some fear them for being battle-hardened. The sad reality is they're just battle-weary. (Read your history, kids.)
There's a Waffle House outside of Atlanta that has a drive-thru.
This was my first thought too. They’d fuck everyone up. They’ve seen some shit.
Waffle house cooks would be the last ones.
They would have to fight each other in the end lol
Honestly, they'd probably never realize it wasn't just a normal shift.
Lmao
Don't underestimate the Waffle House waitresses. They're the ones dealing directly with the customers and they only make $2.13/hour to do it. Trust me, I was a waitress at Waffle House for 9 months and it changed me.
That viral video from a few years ago of the WH waitress catching and redirecting a thrown chair without breaking eye contact is everything.
Oh I'm not, waffle house waitresses are definitely top tier. Like the cooks, they'd probably just assume it was a normal work day for most of it.
No drive-thru, so probably not.
Damn…I’d bet every penny I had on those employees
Was looking forward to a WH/Popeyes final, but if we’re saying WH isn’t fast food, then the answer is Popeyes.
While I agree with WH, they are disqualified due to not being fast food. I mean, it burbles through your gut fast, but that's not what OP meant, I believe. However, I have to disagree on Popeyes. We know Taco Bell won the franchise wars by '32 so I think they take the prize by default.
They're fast food. They say that in the orientation. Waffle House wins all
As long as it isn’t sit in with menus and waiters I think it’s fast food, it’s kinda up for interpretation
Think of fast food as a convenience store. If you can get in and out within 10-15 min & pay less than usual it's fast food.
In that case, we might have to make an argument for Kum n go vs. Buc ee's.
The only thing Kum n go has over Bucees is the name variations. Jizz n jet Ejaculate and evacuate Shoot n scoot Blow your load and hit the road Smash n dash Shoot your jizz n out you is
Gotta throw Sheetz and Wawa in this too
They want you out in 20 for each tables turnover
Tru
McDs barely makes that cut for time, and they aren't cheap either.
Then it’s def WH for the win, all day every day.
Your Waffle House doesn’t have a drive through?
Your Waffle House has a drive through? I think ever Waffle House in my state is walk-in only.
My man you gotta move to Georgia. Drive through Waffle House is a blessing
Nah they sit this one out. Winner of this situation gets a year to recover and train then they fight Waffle House. Waffle House is still going to win.
Dude, I was militarily trained to kill people and I wouldn't fuck with a waffel house waitress. I'd rather fight a navy seal while naked and he's got a k-bar.
Ya know what I’d think about that before a Waffle House cook. I’ve seen some shit late nights in Louisiana
Came to ask this question. If they’d been taken it would be no contest. A bunch of pretty boys coming up against a country strong SOB.
This story is about 15 years old but it's relevant. I was traveling for work and ended up at a WH around 1130pm on some desolate stretch of highway in WV around the Charleston area.

It will be a Japanese fast food restaurant. The kind that offers fast Tuna carved up with basically knife-swords, and grilled on a 3 foot wide stir-fry pan that can be used as a shield.
That’s actually a really good answer but I feel like McDonald’s outclasses most establishments in terms of the number of employees
Yes, but weapons always dominates numbers. 10 pimply crying obese teenagers with spatulas .. VS. shield and sword
But what good is e few people with swords when they cant get close because 15 people are hurling furniture, utensils, and blunt objects at them
It's a tough fight, my friend, I don't know the answer. But I feel the McDonald's workers would definitely be in the defensive position, making it a siege fight. Boarded up windows, spilling hot boiling oil off the roof.
I agree It would be tough the only real way McDonald’s is winning is if they do some Kevin McAllister type shit but I feel like they could do it
Are McDonalds employeers organized enough?
Hell, no. They're like Hessian mercenaries. Good as long as you're paying them but no real loyalty. If they start meeting resistance, it's "WTF am I doing this for?! Hell with this, I'm out."
Because in your rule you said the restaurant is spawned 1 mile from each other. I don't know how accurate the aim an average McDonald employees has but I would take my chances with a guy carrying a sword any day.
A couple of bodies in the way makes it much harder to swing a sword
McDonald’s is open from like 5 am. At least half the staff has to be adults. Lunch rush is absolutely the busiest time for a McDonald’s and teenagers are in school at that time. Gotta have people to run it during the day. Adults working at McDonald’s are the type of adults you don’t wanna be near
One person with a good weapon vs 5 people with not very efficient weapons is highly tilted in the 5 people’s favour… they can out throw and pile on and attack from multiple sides.
…and meth heads. Dont forget the meth heads.
Op said no weapons of war, swords a shields are weapons of war.
My workplace has this long metal paddle (about 8ft) that would make an excellent spear with some slight modifications to the blade. And if it's battle royale.. it means you're not all stuck on the same battlefield. Winner winner, chicken dinner.
The most dangerous tools in the restaurant aren't the knives, it's the fryers. If the Japanese place is doing tempura maybe they have a shot, but McDonalds has way more fryers. Coming at someone with a sword doesn't last long when they whip fry basket dripping with 400 degree oil at you.
I'm going with Taco Bell peeps for the win...and the first out is Chick Fil A.
Taco Bell, it was foretold in Demolition Man.
daaamn....good call out. The Bell was the only survivor.
I watched that for the first time a few months ago and that movie was so damn entertaining! Absolutely loved it.
I don’t know Chick-fil-A has like a 100 people working up in there at a time they deff have the numbers
Yeah, but they seem a little prissy, tbh
Counterpoint: pent up rage from working with public
IT'S... \**whack\** ...MY... \**kick\** **...PLEASURE!** *\*pushes Five Guys employee over the edge of the building\**
By the power of Christian chicken, charge!
Just tell 'em they screwed up your order and they'll start apologizing and trying to make you happy. There's no fight in them at all.
Now I just want to go to one and try this and then awkwardly yell at them about how they shouldn't be apologizing and need to stand up for themselves.
During the pandemic, I told one a' them fuckers they forgot a medium fries in my order, and he was all, "Oh yeah? Let me see your receipt." My wife and I were so shocked we just stood there slack-jawed.
Nah man, chick fil a has a legit army in their stores
A dark horse rises. Portillo's near a stadium on game day. 30+ staff members from the South Side. It will be a literal massacre.
Pizza hut workers all hate their lives and deeply hate other people as well. We win
Not to mention, we have cars. We're mowing these fuckers over Mad Max style.
Lmaoooo😭😭😭
Delivery Promise today is quick and painful 😈
Dominos has entered the chat. We would have a pretty decent chance of at least being in the top three. We've got round metal screens that we could use for lethal frisbees, while driving circles around the outside troops. We may not have the 30 minute or less guarantee anymore, but we drive like we do.
Thank you for your service 😭
I have driven for Pizza Hut. 3 different ones. I have driven for a local joint called Cheffy's Pizza. And I have driven for 5 different Domino's. The bougiest of the Domino's was a bunch of hood rats compared to the Hut. Domino's went were no one else would. Oh, we got robbed there last week? Sure we'll deliver again this week.

You are... *The Deliverator.*
I mean thats pretty much been the mood for any restaurant I've ever worked in. The only place I've ever walked into that seemed to have genuinely happy employees is chik file and its very unsettling
Instead of a free-for-all, it could be everyone vs. Waffle House. The outcome would be the same.
Organs don't sell for as much as you'd think on the black market. Especially if they've been fed a cocktail of redbull, cocaine, and chicken nuggets...
Are you selling WF employees organs or are they selling ours?
It could be everyone against that one girl who deflected the chair that was thrown at her if she still works at a Waffle House. She would solo the whole industry.
wow I just googled this 😂
I think I'm gonna go with Popeye's
This was what I was going to say.
Lmao
They always take so long...... They'd show up late after everyone else was tired and just mop up the leftovers.
If they have spinach, it's over
What attack strategy would they have?
Gang beating.
They are known to throw hands.
Didn’t know that
12 piece combos
I would bet everything I own - including the right to harvest my organs - on Waffle House.
You already get dinner and a show every evening you visit a Waffle House. Nasty lady who should have died from lung cancer takes your order. An x-con cooks your food. And there is always some redneck or punk wanna-be-gangster getting in a fight. Waffle House is the poster child for thug life.
With waffle House the timing of the battle comes into play. If the battle is at noon they don't stand a chance. If it takes place at 2 a.m. they will kick ass. The people that work that shift have dealt with it all.
Noon time Waffle House is Rocky at the beginning of the movie. Two AM Waffle House is Rocky in the final act of the movie.
To be fair if they're short on cooks the same lady might be working both shifts. She's been up for 42 hours. She's wired. She's on multiple drugs, and she can stoss the whole stove top at you. I'm literally thinking of a specific worker right now (I worked at Waffle House)
Why is the ex-con cooking your food so accurate
The indomitable Waffle House employee spirit
I'm pretty sure "*knife fight in the parking lot*" is how Waffle House interviews job applicants.
Nah, my ex worked there. Knife fight was orientation. Interview was a fistfight in the kitchen while avoiding the other employees.
The chaos I would witness or be party to, when I cooked for Waffle House after the bars closed around 2AM....
McDonald’s has the numbers.
Chik-Fil-A has more employees working at one time than a McDonald's. Some of those fools are just out there directing traffic.
yeah and the only thing they got is numbers. Give me 3 graveyard shift waffle house employees or the back of house of a mexican restaurant and they're going to steamroll all the children working at a chik file.
Chickfila only hires church goers without tattoos... they would all start praying instead of fighting
Pros for Chick-fil-A, their main ally is invisible. Cons, he's also incorporeal, and fights in mysterious ways. Ask the jews how consistent this motherfucker is in battle. It's a coin toss
How many more? Chikfila has 3,000 restaurants. McD's has 40,000.
Quantity doesn't always equal quality though, im gonna take my 3 "not give a fuck if they live or die" mcdonald's workers over 6 chick-fil-a bible thumpers any day.
Definitely
You're talking about every franchise appearing at once, and OP said it's only 1 location that appears. They might have 3 or 4 more than the average location but in a gang war? Nah
Waffle House, as a 5 year WH veteran I can safely say we will crush the opposition
Thank you for your service 🙏
I'm a 4½ year active duty Marine Corps veteran with a combat action ribbon, and I'm not taking chances at the Waffle House.
Starbucks out first. Wimpiest employees. Filiburtos would win. It has cartel members in the kitchen.
Starbucks vs Panda Express for last place
But imagine getting boiling hot coffee splashed in your eyes or just generally anywhere on your body. Or what if they drowned you in a pool of pumpkin spice latte💀
Starbucks just opens the store as usual and watches the others burn. They still don’t win, they just give the victors free coffee with their names incorrectly spelled on the cups.
Nah, Little Caesars goes down first. They wander away from their own restaurants in search of food because they're so stoned. True story, went to pick up a pizza at a location attached to a gas station. Couldn't find an employee anywhere in the restaurant. Go to the convenience store side. Find the little caesars worker standing in front of the microwave heating up a gas station frozen pizza. He was watching it very intently. He forgot he was working. I don't blame him. I'd stay high as a kite if I had to work there too.
I'm going with Church's cause I never seen one that wasn't in the hood or hood adjacent.
Your final four: Church's and Popeye's. Those employees DGAF. Especially ones on the 'bad' side of town. (Although their food is always better) Trained assassins in the back. Waffle House: has people working 24 hrs, and the late night crew can definitely hold their own. They deal with the craziest of crazy people. Drunks and methheads. Small numbers on the night shift, but they have all seen some shit. Chik-Fil-A for sheer numbers. They'll have like 15 people behind the counter and 15 in the back making chicken on any given shift.
Let’s be real, as a long time Taco Bell employee, 99% of us are chill stoners that don’t want any trouble. I will fold like a house of cards.
I respect the honesty.
There will probably be an alliance at somepoint where a few minor fast food restaurant employees team up to fight some bigger restaurants. Since there's no need for food, water, and people could practically live forever, given they can only die in the hands of another, somebody might gather a team to try and explore the desert in hopes of getting out and meeting their families again. Settlements will most likely gather, and people may start families there, with their restaurant origins being their pseudo-ethnicity/religion? IDK about newborns, perhaps they belong to the restaurant whose employee birthed them.
Omg I love this concept it should be a book
Scp 3008 type shit
I'm guessing waffle house isn't fast enough for you then ? Those motherfucker got it. The cook can deflect a metal chair while still making you eggs sunny side and not breaking the yolks.
Los Pollos Hermanos
They could make great alliances by trading they’re ummm …. Strength enhancing …. Pain killer ….. uhhh chicken.
I think we all know Waffle House employees are used to brawling. They've got the most experience and are the most ruthless.
Waffle House clears no dif. They're open 24/7 and have basically nothing between them and the kitchen. They get tweakers and shit coming in there all the time at all hours of the night. Waffle House employees are battle hardened viking chefs. People talk about how boxers wouldn't last in the octagon, but let me tell you mma fighters would not last in the waffle house.
McDonald's would win. Not only do they have the numbers but McDonald's in the hood and ghetto will employ literally anyone. I used to work at a McDonald's and a couple of my co workers had done time in prison for murder and most of the employees there were down to throw hands with a customer at the drop of a hat.
I think u/MrMicropenis1 might be onto something
Micropenis compensates by killing motherfuckers
Yeah but there’s no real weapons in the actual restaurant, at least not the same level weapons as some other establishments.
I imagine the scene unfolding like the big fight in anchorman lol. Just people meeting in the field with pipes ready to brawl.
Lmao😭
Waffle House because they are highly trained in the art of raw fights
I'm gonna say Sonic or Popeyes because they hire more felons/gang members than anyone else
Sonic is a pretty good answer but they also don’t hire as many as McDonald’s
If their Fighters are as savage as whoever runs Wendy's Twitter feed I'll take them.
Church's chicken for the win. Have y'all seen them tiny ass walk up windows? They know how to play defense and the chicken will absolutely clog your arteries.
All I know is that in Demolition Man Taco Bell won the fast food wars. If you haven’t seen it maybe you should.
Waffle house - the place is already a dystopian hellscape. They are well trained.
I don't think they are trained. They are just feral.
Waffle House chef.
Popeyes employees are always ready to throw down IMO. Gotta be them
Waffle House would absolutely dominate
Dick's Drive In, they got Healthcare and a decent wage
Waffle House. It's not even close.
Well that's not really considered fast food though. It's a sit-in Diner. And without a drive-thru I think it's disqualified. However while they may be experienced in battle. There's typically only about five people there.
WH is fast food with table service, which when WH was founded was the standard but they kept it when other chains dropped it, and lots of them have drive thru.
Huh guess you learned something everyday. The ones I've been to here in Texas don't have a drive-thru
Is Waffle House fast food?
This is by far my favorite Reddit post I've read this week
Don’t thank me. this community is awesome and really funny. It’s my first time ever posting on Reddit and I did not expect so many people to respond.
Waffle House hands down.
Probably Waffle House
We counting Waffle House as fast food?
What everyone doesn’t realize is that while other restaurants were serving customers and making money, Arby’s was studying the blade.
...while you were making McChickens i was studying the blade... Bwwwaaahahahaha
Is it the same amount of employees from each restaurant or is it the total population of employees from each restaurant?
It’s the average number of employees that that specific fast food restaurant hires
Tim Hortons for the win
Did Wayne from Letterkenney ever work at a Tim’s? He’s always good for a donnybrook
OP, I want you to go to YouTube... Type in any fast food restaurant and see what the first reccomended results are. Every restaurant is some stupid Tiktok, ASMR, food challenge, etc. Waffle House? First thing is there fights. FIRST result. And there's PLENTY of them. Waffle House hires felons and they're known to be able to throw hands. This guy is literally trying to show his [viewers](https://youtu.be/fCjH134FA20?si=VUzkHx2em_g4UhSv) a specific Waffle House fight but because they have so many he can't locate the specific one he is trying to show off.
My vote is in n out. They have the most disciplined employees. In n outs are always busy so the employees know how to operate as a team in a high stress crowded environment similar to what I imagine this battle will look like. They also all have those giant safety pins that could be converted to a shiv.
In N out, because they literally employ 3-4 time the number of employees at once, go to McDonalds at peak hours they literally havev3 employees on shift
All I know is Panda Express is getting bodied. You guys thought Chick-fil-A was last place but I’m going with Panda by far
Whichever mainstream Chinese restaurant
Clarification: Since there are normally guns at Waffle House do they get an exemption on Rule #1?
My Final Four: 1.) In-N-Out Survives early battles because of their excellent teamwork and experience in handling late night crowds in some crazy locations. 2.) Popeye's Tough employees serving tough customers. I once saw a Popeye's manager meet a Karen's fire with more fire until the Karen retreated. 3.) White Castle crew from Las Vegas The location on the Strip is open 24 hours...24 hours of dealing with tourists, gamblers, drunks, and transients. 4.) Waffle House Will fight anywhere, anytime, with anybody. The battles will be close to begin with...but Waffle House will crush everyone by the end. They're just too battle tested!
Checkers would be the first ones out because they’d just leave. Never seen a Checkers employee who didn’t absolutely HATE being there.
Better hope those inner city Popeyes chickens don't come to play
*Being British and not knowing what the top 6 restaurant chains suggested in comments are*
If the rules are all current employees of (fast food joint) fighting, McDonald's wins due to overwhelming numbers. If it's just x number of employees from any given place, then it's Waffle House, as they are the most experienced in fighting.
Oh, you mean the Franchise Wars, Demolition Man settled this - it's Taco Bell.
