DS9 does need more beef jerky scenes.

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

On it. That reminded me to finish an idea from a couple weeks back.

I don't get it (I have no idea what Bucees is).

[-] negativenull@startrek.website 18 points 11 months ago

Buc-ees is a GIANT gas station (like 40 or 80 gas stalls), and convenience store, but is the size of a small department store.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

So how does that relate to DS9?

[-] negativenull@startrek.website 22 points 11 months ago

DS9 is a giant (gas) station with a lot of shops

Buccee's is apprently pretty shitty to their employees, so it's more like DS9 run by Quark.

Pay and benefits are awesome. After my wife got the list of rules? "Babe. Do NOT take that job."

  • Late by 30 seconds, fired 3rd time, no exceptions. (This is in the middle of nowhere on the interstate. She would have to show up 40 minutes early to ensure no traffic issues.)
  • Can't enter the store before your shift.
  • Can't leave the store during your shift.
  • You must take a particular path to go to the breakroom.
  • You cannot go outside.
  • If anyone spots a tat on your flesh? Fired instantly.

There's more I'm forgetting. This place thinks because of the good pay and benefits that they own you soul.

FYI not every bucees is the size of a department store, although most of the ones they’ve been building along interstates over the past 10-15 years definitely are.

There are plenty, especially near Lake Jackson where they are headquartered, that are the size of a regular gas station.

It's an oasis on road trips

It’s someone answering the question, “What if a gas station were the side of a small Wal-Mart and had promenade vibes?”

[-] verity_kindle@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

They sell everything in the middle of nowhere. They make fresh fudge and candies. They sell gas. The bathrooms are always clean. Their logo is an anthropomorphized beaver in a hat. It's glorious.

I need a ds9 shirt with a smiling quark in 4xl, please, and let me get a couple dabo tickets while we're here

[-] HairHeel@programming.dev 8 points 11 months ago

There's no way DS9's bathrooms are that clean.

[-] MajorHavoc@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Now I'm going to hum the DS9 credits to myself every time I walk into a Buc-ees.

IVE GOT FUDGE OF THE HEART

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

After my wife got a job there and we heard all the abusive policies, she bailed. I'll never set foot in one again.

[-] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 6 points 11 months ago

[-] Ganbat@lemmyonline.com 4 points 11 months ago

Finally getting a Bucees up close to Amarillo soon I've heard, honestly can't wait to check it out.
