CUSTOMER TESTS 'PHONE TRICK' AT CHIPOTLE. THEN HE SEES THE WORKERS' REACTIONS

Angel Jimenez (@jimenezzz._), a creator who specializes in humorous staged videos, declares, “So, there’s a trend going on with Chipotle and the portion sizes,” to start off a video put up on the platform. 

“Apparently, if you record them, they gave bigger portions, so we’re going to test that out.”

Jimenez approaches a Chiptole with a massive ring light, a camera on his forehead, and two smartphones on hand-held mounts. “Good evening,”

After a woman working behind the counter lets Jimenez know that it’s the other worker’s first day, Jimenez laughs and proceeds to walk the Chipotle crew through his bowl order, getting substantial servings of white rice, black beans, and chicken.

The woman finishing off his order declares, “That’s how I make all my bowls,” though Jimenez is already in victory lap mode, proclaiming, “It worked!”

Commenters had thoughts about this spin on the phone trick. “I love how they immediately knew,” one said.
