burrito day 11/5/04

In the spirit of the recent elections and the numerous CA propositions on the ballot this year, I offer the following proposition in 2006:PROPOSITION 77 (because '7' is the BDC's favorite number!):

Chipotle Burritos for all Employees. Happiness for All. Life is Good.Initiative Statute.*
- Requires all employers to sponsor one free burrito per employee per week. This is in addition to, and not in place of, the current list of employer benefits. *
-- Provides no limit to the type of burrito (i.e Chicken, Barbacoa, or even Fajita (god forbid :-). *
-- Authorizes employees to enjoy their burrito on the patio of Chipotle for at least 1.5 hours. This is considered company time. As demonstrated in previous trials, this can only improve worker productivity and morale.
-- Imposes severe penalties for employers that resist against this worthwhile benefit. This is not OPTIONAL!

If some of you, for whatever reason, think this may be a ridiculous proposition, I have one sure fire-method to get it passed - GET ARNOLD to back it!! This guy is phenomenal. He can sell anything. Two months prior to this past election Prop. 66 was passing 60% to 40%. Arnold decided he didn't want it ...so he threatened the entire state ...and guess what? - it didn't pass - 51% voted NO. I can hear Arnold's promotions now -- "Free Burritos for all employees! This can only help to strengthen their puny muscles. Our economy needs very large muscles so we can get out of this pathetic debt. Burritos PUMP YOU UP!!"
