      I swear to fucking christ, if you mention buccees, there will be hoardes of guerrlia marketing /r/hailcorporate shitting enthusiats that emerge. Suddenly everyone is driving 400 miles a day AND has IBS. Its cult like or planted marketing.

      I’m low-key pissed that they can’t post to the UK. I had the Buc-off pompom hat and the T-shirt in my basket before I realised.

      First off, you have to put on a happy face. Believe it or not, you can get written up for that. You are watched like a hawk unlike other job so if you use the bathroom too many times you get written up, they follow you to the bathroom if they think you’re going to use your phone. If you have your phone on you, it’s an instant fire. If you’re late a minute, you are fired after the third time.

       One woman at the Richmond, Kentucky store went into labor and couldn’t make it so they fired her. Also the double standards for management is unreal. 

      If you miss your shift because they change the schedule and you didn’t see it you’re automatically fired. It depends on who your shift supervisors and managers are. But Buckys rides on them as well so they can ride on you. If you work in bakery and you don’t watch the times on the bakery goods, even if you are a minute over when the expires on that bakery good you get written up and it doesn’t matter. If you work by yourself and you have a line of people and you can’t get to it they don’t care.

      so stupid that it’s spelled the way it is but pronounced “bucky’s”

      I just absolutely do not understand why so many adamently stan for a corporation because they sell shit gas station food. The cult like behavior of people defending such a terrible organization that sells terrible food, is so weird. Someone is going to come and tell me their slop is Michelin star though. They always have these bot accounts raving over warmed over turd.

      I was all set to order something, but the shipping on it was $16.95 for a pair of flannel pants.

      I’m fine with $32 for charity, but $17 for shipping seems INSANE and I’d rather just donate $50 to the cause (even though I love taking down “the man”)

      Hell yes, this is how I end up with weird merch like Marlin Bundo books. Cant wait for some Buc-off undies.

      This whole episode had me cackling and this was the cherry on top. John Oliver, the troll we need.

      I would marry this man in an instant if he wasnt already married to an absolutely gorgeous and amazing wife. Hes heroic in a world full of cowards

      I had a panic attack in a Buc-ee’s off i-95 in South Carolina earlier this summer during the peak heatwave.

      My SO hyped it up the entire road trip so I was looking forward to stopping there. I didn’t know what to expect and thought it was going to be an XL normal gas station, not a Walmart-esque behemoth.

      The sandwiches looked gross, and the journey to the toilets inside was as endless as the walk to and from the car in the scorching sun.

      0/10 do not recommend

      Lived in Texas for five years and did not once step foot in a Buc-ee’s. Overblown as hell.

      Fuck BUCEES. I’ve been saying this for years since I found out about their donation to Abbot.
