I kind of just assumed that Culver’s runs exclusively on Central time? Like… even the ones in Florida and AZ?

If you didn’t get a concrete at 1045am as well I’m just going to go ahead and assume Ohio isn’t actually in the Midwest.

Central is the only real time zone. God’s time. Culver’s time. Ope time.

I didn’t take a picture of it and now it’s gone.

I’m 90% sure he got this culver’s in Michigan, and to be honest with you, the best culver’s location I have ever been to.

I got it in Ohio, in Oregon to be precise.
I should have gotten it yesterday when I was in Adrian, but I totally forgot about it. I meant to get some alpha Coney Island when I was there but didn’t go there either.

While the territory of Oregon did exist at the time (covering present day Oregon, Washington, Idaho and part of Montana), the city of Oregon actually predates the state of Oregon by 21 years. History is fascinating.

Follow up to my meeting today with the IT folks @Aham13 it wasn’t quite “fuck you” but it was pretty close. A direct quote was “they think they have better dairy and beef so we just make it easier for them to continue believing that”
Oh and Culver’s is better when it’s from the test kitchen.

Typical midwesterners being too nice instead of saying we’re better and we’ll prove it. Give them my refuge handle and tell them I can guarantee one order a week to sweeten the pot.
Some of the ops guys I chatted with said the biggest issue is costs and market saturation. Their newest store in Wisconsin was $1.9M to open and land and building costs aren’t close to what they are for you. Now pay staff whatever the governor decides and the costs become harder in a market there isn’t a huge demand for their product.

Oh for sure. I get it. Everything’s way too expensive here all the way around. I’m in a different market from @Forty but it’s absurdly obnoxious here right now. For context I’m sandwiched between LA and San Francisco with a higher cost of living than LA and less of a job market than both. Fixer uppers are going for 600k+ and there’s not a ton of 6 figure jobs floating around here.

It’s certainly more affordable here in the Coachella Valley than the central coast. No question. But during COVID, so many people from LA and SF bought second homes here and absolutely fucked our housing market. While we have a strong health care and hospitality market here, we too don’t have as many 6-figure professional jobs relative to the population as anywhere from SD->LA has.

Same boat here on the housing front. When remote work became an option it was a bloodbath here. Every house had a bidding war and the locals lost. My friends in real estate shared some absurd statistics about how many houses sold above asking price.

They also pronounce the city’s name incorrectly. I only know this because my sister lives there (in the city, not the state).

is it Ore-y-Gone? Or Oreh-gun?
City is pronounced “Ore-A-Gone”. So closer to your first guess. Definitely a three syllable word.
