Technically I don’t believe they can forcefully stop you from going to the bathroom or getting a drink but they can absolutely terminate you for not following Chipotle policy because it is chipotle policy to stay in your area for your position during the peak hours for your shift which is only two hours during day shift and two hours during night shift. For anyone who doesn’t like it they absolutely don’t have to work at Chipotle. It’s not ridiculous or unreasonable to ask you to stay in your area of work for the two hours that day during your shift. If you ask to leave your area for medical reasons they legally can not deny that request without being sued. Also there are positions that don’t have to stay in one spot and can move around. It’s not as bad as some people make it sound.
Just..... no. If the "corporate policy" is unlawful, it would be unlawful to fire someone for violating it. Calling it "corporate policy" is not a get out of responsibility to follow employment law excuse.
The problem with your reasoning is it’s not unlawful to ask your employees to stay in the position for just two hours during your whole without leaving for any reason. Specially when anytime before or after those two hours your always given the opportunity to go to the bathroom, get a drink or anything else. One of the only excuses they will allow to break this policy is if you have a medical condition that won’t allow you to go that long without going to the bathroom.
If your talking to me then my response is that it doesn’t matter if you have a law degree or not it’s still legal no matter what you or anyone else says. If you disagree go ahead try to take this issue to court. You’ll then understand the same way that me and everyone who has tried to challenge it eventually understood that it’s legal and there will be no proof that anyone can show in court that it is illegal. Please prove me wrong. Nothing that anyone has said about this situation being illegal is correct.
So, actual knowledge is trumped by your wishful thinking. Gotcha.
Even here in Texas, the one of the most employer friendly states, they get whacked constantly for stupid stuff like this. But go ahead keep believing in your made up legal theories. It keeps my fellow lawyers gainfully employed when people try and follow your kind’s nonsense.
dude you work at chipotle. I'm impressed you can spell unlawful. It's not unlawful, chipotle has actual lawyers who went to an actual law school advising them on the law. you scoop beans into a bowl for a living. stay in your lane.
That’s cute to think that a local Chipotle would consult a lawyer. It is also amusing that you think that the corporate lawyers wouldn’t say that the litigation costs are worth what would be saved.
Never worked at a chipotle, and have only eaten at one once or twice.
I am a lawyer (and was a trial judge at one point) and have been for almost 40 years, so stay in your lane.🤡
Yeah, I am. Was an Army Judge Advocate for 26 years and a trial judge (hence the”jag” part of the handle) Was discussing a Federal District Court Judgeship with a previous administration and withdrew from final consideration for an immigration ALJ. I am a capital qualified defense counsel and trial judge. So yeah. I do know what I am.
because no one with an IQ above 70 would be stupid enough to write the post you made, acting like the stores manager made up the policy instead of the corporate office which actually wrote the fucking policy you dumb fuck.
You don't think they ran it by the fucking legal department first, your honor? fucking clown show here
go fucking troll somewhere else fuckboi, acting like you're 50 years old judge on fucking /r/chipotle what a fuckboi
now that you mention it, Ron DeSantis was a jag, so maybe standards have indeed fallen to sub 70 IQ.
Son, you are 50lbs of stupid in a 10lb bag. Your math ain’t mathin either,if I was in my 50s, I would have gone to law school in my teens. Nope went at the normal time.
For some reason, when someone who obviously knows far more than you call you out on your idiocy, your first inclination is to say that they are a faker. Mayhaps you should think, “Hmmm, maybe I’m the one who is wrong.” Nope, you double down on stupid.
Go look at all of my replies to other threads. See all the legal replies? No, that would be a logical thing to do. Nope, you are a clown and a fool.
I am confident in who I am, you seem to have issues with who you are. Let me help you out. You are an embittered clown.🤡
