Comments on: Woman Worked For Taco Bell For 30 Years Before Being Fired! http://www.everybodylovesyourmoney.com/2007/11/10/woman-worked-for-taco-bell-for-30-years-before-being-fired.html Living for today - Planning for Tomorrow Thu, 18 Mar 2010 17:14:15 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Joseph Sangl http://www.everybodylovesyourmoney.com/2007/11/10/woman-worked-for-taco-bell-for-30-years-before-being-fired.html/comment-page-1#comment-112602 Joseph Sangl Fri, 16 Nov 2007 03:27:30 +0000 http://www.everybodylovesyourmoney.com/2007/11/10/woman-worked-for-taco-bell-for-30-years-before-being-fired.html#comment-112602 This is why I fired myself from Corporate America and embarked on a crusade to help people win with money. There is no reason that she should be dependent upon an employer for health insurance after steady employment for thirty years! Compound interest is my friend!!! I am SO GLAD that someone taught me the power of compound interest when I was just 12 years old! It has allowed me to invest early and often and will prevent me from having my life controlled by a business.

I wish more people had a work ethic like that - ok Taco Bell isn't the best job out there, but most people would put forth a lot LESS effort for a better job - amazing! what a saint!!

Being willing to work a crappy job for that many years isn't insurance you'll retire with them. I feel bad for this woman. I had a good friend that managed a Taco Bell in college and she didn't have great things to say about the corporation either. Of course, we don't know all the particulars that lead to the dismissal but it doesn't look good on the side of Taco Bell. I hope she's able to pick up the pieces. Jerry Wow.

It says that she had comments on her last few reviews for things she needed to improve. It's entirely possible--sad as it is--that she might not be able to perform up to the leve required. One of the complaints was in food-handling. She easily could have been unconsciously putting people at risk for food-poisoning. The article was written specifically to make us sympathetic towards the woman. There could be more to the story that we don't know. I think the thing to remember here is that Taco Bell is a business.

For the record, this woman did not work for Taco Bell. She worked at a Taco Bell that was owned by a large franchisee (that also owned other, non-taco franchises). Wow, that sucks.

They were successfully sued for discrimination a couple years ago--they treated their African American employees very badly. Taco Bell has a lousy reputation as an employer, in general.
