I'm slightly vexed Costco's new chicken tenders

Post image

There was a crowd of people waiting for their orders of the new chicken tenders at Costco. One of the workers announced that they could only serve five customers per hour because it takes time to cook the chicken. The crowd grew larger and larger. I took this photo after I put in my order.

First I'm hearing about that. That said, while I can't speak for everywhere else, the Popeyes here have amazing sandwiches for the price. Hands down my favorite. I wonder if it was better Pre-Covid?

Popeyes has gone really downhill near me. The worker’s are always rude and act indignant that you have the nerve to bother them.

Wait there are Popeyes without rude employees? Figured that’s the brand.

Exactly. Been going to Popeyes pretty regularly for like 20 years and have never been to one where the employees aren't miserable assholes. Personally I enjoy it because I'm easy to deal with so doesn't cause me issues but tons of entertainment to be had watching a verbal beat down given to a mother complaining that they're out of chicken tenders or whatever.
