Casa Bonita workers are filing a petition to unionize—because why not turn a tacky-ass theme restaurant into a labor battleground? This place, known more for sloppy enchiladas and cliff divers than fine dining, is now ground zero for wage disputes.
Look, Casa Bonita was never meant to be a lifelong gig—it’s a place for college kids, theater dropouts, and folks making a quick buck between real jobs. But apparently, some employees think puppet shows and diving stunts are worthy of a union card. Seriously?
So what’s next? A $25 burrito with “performance hazard pay” baked in? This is peak Colorado nonsense—turning a cheesy tourist trap into a union hub, complete with safety standards and negotiations. Here’s a thought: maybe being a cliff diver shouldn’t be a career path. It’s like unionizing summer camp counselors—ridiculous.
Let’s be clear: Matt Stone and Trey Parker pumped millions into saving this relic, and now the staff want to push for benefits and more pay like they’re working in a coal mine. Come on. We get it—everyone wants fair wages, but Casa Bonita is a novelty, not a government office. If you’re banking your future on plating soggy enchiladas, that’s on you. Maybe tighten the life vest and aim higher.
This whole union stunt is just another step toward making everything more expensive in Colorado. Expect those beloved slop-laden plates to come with a gourmet price tag soon. Hell, at this rate, even the SOPAIPILLAS will have a surcharge.
