Former Employee Alleges Taco Bell Holiday Party Included 3-Way Sex Romps And Vomit In The Guacamole
Now the headline for this post sounds like a perfect party for James!
A former San Pedro, California, Taco Bell employee has filed a lawsuit after she alleges she was forced to quit her job after bringing the activities of a holiday party to the attention of the franchisee and human resources.
According to a report by the New York Post, the employee claims that at the Taco Bell restaurant holiday party, her manager was engaged in a sex romp with another employee and their wife, there was alcohol provided with employees being overserved, and finally the biggest party foul…someone puked in her bowl of guacamole.
Alana Bechiom filed a lawsuit after she along with her sister and her sister’s husband attended the Taco Bell party which was a potluck-style gathering. The manager, who is one of the people named in the lawsuit, had covered the windows of the restaurant with wrapping paper and covered various security cameras. While inviting employees to come and encouraging them to bring food potluck style.
Bechiom claims while at the party that employees were over-served alcohol that her manager had brought. She witnessed a co-worker engaged in sex with his wife in front of everyone. Alleging that the co-worker’s wife was bent over and kissing her manager and another female co-worker. The complaint also alleged that employees were vomiting everywhere, in the trash, and in the worst spot…in her bowl of guacamole, she brought for the potluck.
After witnessing those acts of debauchery Bechiom left the party disgusted and reported the incident to the franchisee owner as well as the company’s human resources. After the complaints, an investigation was opened and the employees involved were all terminated.
That’s when Bechiom started to be threatened and had the back window of her car smashed out allegedly by someone associated with the terminated employees. She says that she started getting threatening messages and when it was reported to the company, they were going to move her to a different location instead of addressing the harassment with the employees.
She has filed suit for an undisclosed amount in damages.
4 Reasons Why People Love Chain Restaurants
Safer Bets & Convenience
One of the advantages of dining at a chain restaurant is the predictability that comes with it. Local, independent establishments can be more hit-or-miss, often offering a more limited menu selection, which makes them a riskier choice for a date or group outing. When you open the menu, you can expect to find the same menu items prepared and presented consistently. Chain restaurants usually follow uniform recipes and they use the same ingredients, equipment, and standardized training procedures. You can expect a consistent experience whether you’re in one part of the country or another. Restaurant chains are like your reliable pals on a road trip. You spot their logo on an exit sign, and you know it’s there. It’s that simple convenience that makes chain restaurants a go-to option, no matter where you are.

Familiarity & Nostalgia
For many people, chain restaurants served as the primary dining option simply because they were the most accessible. You know how the place will look, how the wait staff is dressed, and how you are expected to dress at chain restaurants, ensuring a familiar dining experience wherever you go. Many diners have a soft spot for the food we know and love. It’s like a comforting experience. Chain restaurant grub often brings back memories of late-night munchies after Friday night football games, college hangouts, and road trips.

Affordability
Chain restaurants tend to be easier on the wallet compared to standalone establishments with more specialized menus and daily chef’s specials. Most of us keep an eye on our dining budget and wouldn’t want to feel like we’ve emptied our pockets for a single meal. That’s why diners appreciate restaurant chains with Happy Hour, Budget Menus, and Late-Night deals.

Seating & Space
Many local places struggle to seat larger groups, especially if you’ve got more than four people in your party. Unless you’ve made a reservation or a special request, you might end up waiting a while for enough room to open up, regardless of the size of your party. Additionally, local establishments sometimes arrange tables in closer proximity to maximize their limited space. Not everyone’s a fan of dining elbow-to-elbow with strangers and involuntarily eavesdropping on neighboring conversations throughout their meal.
