The local lumber yard closed their VERY BUSY mill shop after one employee got maimed. Thirty years ago the founder/owner gave me a credit account based on a polite request and a respectful manner. Now the grandson runs it like an accounting project. And if you want to "look at" the lumber before making a purchase ...  | |||

Could the movement towards the $15 per hour minimum wage be a factor in the quality of service? Silent | |||

Very small thinking takes over. Some bean counter sat down with a calculator and figured out how much closer they could get to the gun prices on Gunbroker if they cut the armorer.... Probably same kind of thing with the mill shop-- this is how much we'll save if we close it (not how much we'll lose). Same thing with cutting the bus boys at RR. ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||

The RR I go to most often in Scottsdale has gone way downhill in recent months. The food is usually great, but service has gotten worse. On the last visit the fries were cold and they never get refilled even when requested. I go for happy hour once in a while and the bar service is fine, but then they're not too busy late afternoon anyway. Really wish they'd shape up. I used to love the place when they were a lot better. | |||

Years ago RR was the default restaurant I would go to. At some point they switched from a basket full of steak fries with a burger on the side to a plate. The burger sizes shrank, and they gave you a salsa cup of fries. They even shut down the original location in Seattle. I stopped going. | |||

We have one Red Robin in our area. We quit going several years ago when they began posting no firearms signs. It didn't apply to me, but it was still an irritation. That in addition to the really lousy service and the burgers were not that great. Outback did the same thing. I could not convince the management of either that having legal CCW holders, who were also retired LEO, might be a good thing these days. Every month about twenty of us and spouses would meet at one restaurant or the other. Right across the street is an Olive Garden. We're treated much better. | |||

Red Robin has always been mediocre on the burgers. The only good part was the toppings which were actually tasty. The only burger place that I recommend is BRGR. Most excellent burgers and shakes. | |||

Our Fuddruckers in Missoula closed as well recently. It was our go-to place when we went there. Too bad. I wish Culvers and Whataburger would head north into Montana.

Years ago we went to a new one that had opened right next to my gym at the time. I enjoyed it. My wife found it passable. We subsequently stopped at another one that was between home and where we had our boat slipped, and we both found it terrible. We haven't been back. This is the thing that many restaurants, and other businesses, don't seem to get: All it takes is for a new customer to have a bad experience and often they simply won't be back.

It was something like 22 states that raised their minimum wages, some pretty dramatically is the reason given that RR cut all busboys and expeditors. I think there’s a lot more competition than 10 years ago and people are going elsewhere for better burgers for the price too. | |||

not RR, which by the way HAS deteriorated drastically in both quality & service; a different local chain, known for quality restoration & repurposeing of regional historical buildings, with an otherwise decent menu finally chased us out. We arrived just before the real lunch rush; there were still tables available; seated at 12:03, ordered SOUP OF THE DAY 12:09; coffee arrived 12:12; no sign of OUR wait-person, other busy staff; people arriving while others leaving after their meal, still some empty tables; NO SERVICE....left at 12:45 to find lunch elsewhere.

Ate there a few times in my brief living situation in WA state. Thought the food was very bland.. Had tried multiple things and it was always meh. When a place can’t even make a decent burger then fuck it. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

How ironic. Guess where we are going tonight. We used to go quite frequently as the boys liked it and their burgers were pretty good. We have not been in awhile because kids are fickle and no longer wanted to go. The other day the boy asked when we were going to go to “Red’s” again. So we’re going tonight. I sure hope our experience is not the same as the majority here. It’s been a long time since I had a Fuddruckers close. Sure wish we had one. ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad. If we got each other, and that's all we have. I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand.

We stopped going. They used to be good, but are now extremely overpriced garbage. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer.

But you got unlimited free fries with your meal!! The catch being, you can never find your waitress and by the time you can put an order in for more fries, you’ll be long gone. ______________________________________________________ Often times a very small man can cast a very large shadow | |||

Yea they’ve really dropped off, big time. 15 years ago it was a great place to dine. Now it’s horrible — dirty restaurants, poor service, food quality is way down. Sad to see. _______________ Mind. Over. Matter. | |||

Ate at one in South Jordan Utah while visiting my SIL. Very disappointing with mediocre food and terrible service. This was 5 years ago so hard to imagine if things have gotten worse. Much prefer Whataburger. | |||
