Today the ladies in the kitchen threthened with charging for the salsa and garnishes i was packing for my 2 cabeza burritos.... " they might charge you if you take too much." I Answered, I will take just what I need. HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH? 3 red little cups of red salsa? 3 little cups of green? 3 or cilantro and 3 of oniob? I took the 9 slivers of lime.... They were closing for the night and were gonna be dried by morning. You are willing to lose a customer over 2 little cups of salsa.... These ladies are hateful. Today the cashier was nice.
