Shut down today? Heard it was. Wonder if this will hurt them long term. I'm guessing the hipsters will still frequent the place.

Like closed for good or just for today?
Saw on the news this morning all Torchy's locations are closed "due to staffing shortages," AKA "Day Without an Immigrant."

Tacos-A-Go-Go is closed as well.
So a day of virtue signaling and then back to making queso..... got it.
It's all posturing.
Any long term type strike would be mutually assured destruction.

I hate people nowadays.
All this protest movement taking a stand crap is old.

At Pollo Bravo off Richmond in southwest Houston, the store posted a sign on the front door that stated "Sorry for the inconvenience but as immigrants we will be marching for our rights. Thanks for your understanding. See you tomorrow. God bless us all."
Oh for f cks sake. Torchy's is ass. No big deal.
lawn guys still working hard here so all is good.

So it's a protest for immigrants and the illegal ones are the only ones still working.
Sounds about right.
Now all the small business owners know who to fire tomorrow morning.
What about the tacos on every corner Trump told us about?
Tacos del Julio on Long Point was open at lunch and plenty busy slinging their delicious tacos.
Taco truck on Durham just before 10 w/ the tortillas hechas las manos was still open at lunch.spadilly said:

Places like Pollo whatever on Richmond probably just did for free advertising. Nobody but Diggity had ever heard of them but SJW's will seek them out now. I think there were a lot more closures in Austin where they know what their audience is.
If Torchys wasn't based in Austin I bet they'd been open and cashing that green like the other taco places that care more about money knowing their day to day work ethic will carry them more than anything our government will ever do.
Pollo Bravo is delicious my friend.
This. x1000
I snagged a new hat this week:

So who is actually marching, is it the illegals? The green cards? The people who were immigrants but now are citizens and have rights and are marching for rights they already have?
My lawn guy did a great job today.
So sad!!
I expect that there will be a few job openings this morning.

I don't. The coddling and encouragement will continue. Companies and bosses are too scared of a lawsuit to take action on someone "exercising their right to peacefully protest".
Here's what's so damn perplexing over this whole situation. The issue at heart isn't immigrants...It's illegal immigrants. Which BTW have no right to work here anyways. So legal immigrants are protesting for the illegal immigrants while the illegal immigrants continue to work.

In their minds, there is not legal or illegal. It is extreme equivocation.

Why doesn't it? They skipped work to make a political stance. Sounds like why the Fox 26 weather girl was fired, except she didn't actually skip work.
It doesn't apply because it has nothing to do with an employer's ability to terminate - Employment At Will - which is what you're thinking about.AgLA06 said:Ezra Brooks said:Has nothing to do with the issue being discussed.CDUB98 said:Right to work state.Ag_07 said:Tom Hagen said:

Right to Work is about a Union's ability to require membership (or not).
If they fired anyone for protesting there would be so much liberal backlash when it made the news and all of the snowflakes would boycott harder than they're boycotting Fitzgerald's.AgLA06 said:Ezra Brooks said:Has nothing to do with the issue being discussed.CDUB98 said:Right to work state.Ag_07 said:Tom Hagen said:

How long do you want to ignore this user?

Does anyone have a list of these places I will be avoiding in the future?
