Guessing he was an aspiring actor when this was made. It's amazing how much embarrassing stuff actors go through when trying to break in. I think when you see videos like this, the people were thrilled for the job because it paid rent for a month or two!
It's nice to see Dave Thomas again. He always seemed like such a kind, genuine guy on TV. For the younger people, he used to be in all the Wendy's commercials up until the early 2000s when he died.
He definitely got better infront of the camera. He seemed so unnatural in this video, but I remember him seeming much more comfortable in the commercials in the 90s.
People in the 90s: forced to watch this when they want a job People now: choose to waste 15 minutes watching this (edit: fixed spacing, and '89 is close enough)
I remember Dave Thomas was a kind and generous human being, he was adopted as a child and shared his wealth with many adoption agencies and children without homes. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
He has an autobiography called Well Done. He was a very humble and sincere man. Being adopted really bothered him and other than delivering a quality product his passion in life was to help adopted children. We could probably use some Dave Thomas ghost.
***** the grill worker does not touch the bun, only the sandwich maker does, with a glove. It is a third person's job to keep stock of the buns. The grill person, for food safety reasons, can't touch anything other than the raw meat and the spatula. There is even a separate spatula just for the sandwich maker to use to prevent cross-contamination.
I worked at a Wendy’s in Dallas during the mid 90’s. I got a chance to meet Dave and I can attest, the man was probably the most generous boss that a restaurant chain could ever have.
@@jimbL200I would expect him to be a typical greedy, superficially nice but cruel type. I agree, it's nice to hear he might have been a good person. I don't eat fast food anymore but when I drove a cab, I ate it every night. Wendy's was by far the best quality and of course had the longest lines. I would always try to go before they closed but didn't always work out and i had to buy crap from taco bell or something. Not all bad by any means but compared to Wendy's it was a huge difference.
I learned sandwiches and grill for Wendys from these videos. That was 1992. It’s 2023 and I still remember the songs. If that isn’t a testament to power of these training videos I don’t know what is.
McDonalds ads in the 80’s-90’s: people dancing all over town, throwing back their heads in unrestrained laughter, tossing fries in each other’s mouths, etc. Wendy’s ads in the 80’s-90’s: Dave Thomas politely asking you try a burger that’s “old fay-shunned”
I was a unit director for Wendy's in the early 80s.Our motto was We Don't Cut Corners. I had my store right off the campus of the University of Texas at Arlington. The first Wendy's I had ever ate at was the Wendy's Dave Thomas opened in downtown Columbus Ohio, across from the COSI. I still love Wendy burgers
He tells chicks about his raw meat and how it goes in one direction in her mouth 👄 or the bat cave. After a few dates he might put the meat in the buns.
I worked at Wendy’s in high school 2002-2004. I remember watching videos like these, although I think ours were more 1990s Hanging With Mr. Cooper style. You don’t realize how much that stuff sticks with you but to this day I still blossom a potato the way I learned at Wendy’s, still find myself pressing burgers on the grill like we learned back in the day. It’s funny to think how we made fun of that stuff back then but it really does stick with you. I remember being on the grill and the reminder would go off on the timer and you’d call out “stir (chili) drain (pickles) sanitize (the sand which prep board) flip (tomatoes) flop (can’t remember anymore what that one was) fluff (bacon)”….20 years ago and you still remember that stuff.
I worked there from May 2006-February 2009. The 2000s were truly the Last HURRAH for the company. The Quality, Taste, Morale Everything about Wendys before 2010 was just so Great.
We do it in the middle now. But the way they do it is to make sure they don't get lawsuits. What I didn't know is that if the patty isn't cooked well done and the supposed plaintiff is in the age group to get possibly vilely sick by that, they can sue.
You must have worked at a company location. I worked at a franchise location and it wasn't as cool. I tried to play my spatula like an electric guitar, and the only sound it made was the sizzle of my skin as it burned horribly. I screamed in anguish, and my manager came running out and said YOU CAN SERVE THE CHILI WITH SOME CHEESE
It’s nice to see Wendy’s putting effort into keeping they’re employees from poisoning people with botulism. Your artistic direction on this video is awesome.
Well just about all stats show opinions on race relations from that time until about the last several years were improving drastically and were actually better than they are now.
Just showed this to my mom. She was legit fucking horrified when the patties started singing. Staring at me, jaw on the floor, struggling to speak, and literally covered in goosebumps. Thanks for helping me traumatize a middle-aged woman🙏

Manager: So what makes you qualified to work at Wendy's? Applicant: I've seen every 80's training video at least 12 times and "Hot Drinks" is my ringtone. Manager: Welcome aboard!
"Do you like hot fudge sundaes Dave ? " " Have you tried the lasagna? It's my favorite." " Is it still hot out there Dave?" "Did you catch the game last night Dave?" - Legendary Meat Carver Guy
as much as seeing Dave in this resolution sends me back to my youth- I was rocketed back in time when I saw that salad bar in the background. Wendy's was all about that salad bar.
"Pressing them into the juice". If you have a soaking sponge and press it on a hot surface, it is wetter or dryer than before you pressed. A 5 year old knows not to press meat on a pan SMH.
Its Wendys my man. These are not quality meats...they are meant for fast cooking. I rarely have fast food like this cause Im always hungry after...theyre so thin all these fast food meats. So then I found out its cheaper to buy from my "organic" butcher. I get 8oz burger patties for example, real beef for $8 a 4 pack...
Pretty sure he meant once it's cooked. He put the cheese on the grill to make it hot. You can touch food that's going to be cooked without wearing gloves. You can't touch food that already is cooked (like the finished cheeseburgers) or won't be cooked (like salads) without wearing gloves.
1:23 “the patty tastes better because the sawdust pressed into the meat makes the meat more tender and also makes the patty larger”. Dave giving away all the Wendy’s sawdusty secrets.
And then his Daughter, Wendy herself took over in 2002 after he passed away. She kept Wendys a Great Company throughout in 2000s, and even brought her Xennial Son on board. But then due to the Recession of 2008, P&G decided to sell Wendys to ConAgra Foods, and ConAgra decided in 2010 that the Thomas family shouldn't be running the company, so they fired her in 2010. And its been going downhill since then.
This… and Hot Drinks! The best training videos ever! Seriously, if companies still made training videos fun and interesting like THIS, I know associates would retain a LOT more of what they’re taught before being thrown to the lions. How do I know it works? Because of my old job at Shoprite, and the bagging training video they had for cashiers. The haaaaaam! 🤣
I love hearing about the old-fayshioned bidness. RIP Dave Thomas. Last note. I love watching these old training videos. The old days were definitely better than our current era.
I used to work at Wendy's back in the early 90s when I was 16 I loved watching these videos my first station was the toasting station where I would toast the Buns all day then I got moved up to fries then I was making the big bucks then they moved Burger Station where I would put all the condiments on memorizing all the sandwiches was really hard but one day I had a dream that I was working and I actually taught myself all the sandwiches in my dream then I got moved over to the grill station and i did the delicious burgers if they ever got overcooked we would chop them up and put them into the chili one day we got really busy during a rush and we were understaffed I knew what Dave wanted me to do so when nobody was paying attention I went to the back grabbed my skateboard went out the back door and never came back except to grab my paycheck thanks Dave it was great By the way this is the exact video they made me watch I remember telling everybody at school about the guy that rapped teaching me about the grill pure cringe
well I know for a fact that after Dave passed away, they slowly started changing all his ideas for a more Mcdonald and BK style from getting rid of their (I don't know how they did it) really quick single line ordering like they do in drive through they got rid of the salad bar, the burgers did get smaller (no longer smashed) and now the meat is a quarter pound before it gets cooked not after.
@@AZISMYKINGDOM No kidding here in Tampa with exception of Chick fil a all fast food restaurants allow smoking weed while on break and hey I used to like my weed every once in a while on my days off but I worked at McDonald's and that has lost them a lot of customers in the past 6 years.
Why the fuck would people get “clean cut” to get paid basically nothing to work at a fuckin Wendy’s ? Teenagers make money on the internet now so I don’t want to hear it’s a kids job. This job is for desperate people at the end of their rope and you should expect low quality.
Things I learned: -Wendys presses the shit out of the meat -The amount of grease fires must have been crazy -They just re-use bad meat for the chili -Dave Thomas can’t say ‘Fashioned’
5:10 "We don't want a broken patty." 6:20 - cuts the patty in half with spatula Also, Billy didn't rewind the tape after watching it. I'm guessing that he'll last a week at most.
Wild that they have a dedicated wall mounted tv with built in VHS in the 80s. Wendy's was ahead of its time, and only used 100% pure ground beef pressed into squares; so the meat hangs off the side.
I watched this 400 times. I have studied the employee training manual front and back. Wish me luck at the interview guys. I have trained for years for this opportunity.
@@SkinniJ I'm sure he was pretty disappointed when they told him the video was 40 years old and that they no longer use those machines due to being out of commission for years but I'm sure Dave would have been proud!
Fark him. He's only the CEO. Im in Australia and at my last company (not huge German owned multinational in 60 countries doing 2.6 billion a year) there was a guy trying introduce himself and I was kinda in the middle of something and half ignored him til he made a point of shaking my hand. Later found out he ran the whole of Australia and Asia. 😂
Wow, I never see black and white people work at Wendy's anymore. All I've ever seen is Mexicans. The 80s and 90s where definitely a different time I personally miss. I'm sure these employees where never paid to be on the cheesy training video.
maybe after humanity has destroyed itself and has been lost to the sands of time, whatever sentient creatures that inherit the planet will find this and guide their understanding of the universe.
At 16, Bill had his first epileptic seizure. He was found dead, face down, on the grill after a second massive seizure thought to have been induced by watching a training video just minutes earlier.
I worked for Wendy's in 1979. They told us the patties were square because at Wendy's, we don't cut corners.
I worked there two years ago they said the same thing
kenzey iler I work there now, they’re still saying it 😂
I worked at Wendy's between 2011 and 2013... and they said the same thing even then.
I worked there 12 hours ago and they said the same thing
I worked there 30 secs ago.. Same thing...

@@flavortown5124 its better. Let me see if I can find the link.
Alllrigghht
lmao!!! I just came from that video.. I'm dying...
This video has no business going as hard as it does. Absolutely phenomenal stylin’ and profilin’.
as much as seeing Dave in this resolution sends me back to my youth- I was rocketed back in time when I saw that salad bar in the background. Wendy's was all about that salad bar.
I see. They "seal in the juices" by slow-cooking instead of searing the meat, and by pressing the juices out of it 8 times.
This video is slow cooking the juices in my brain.
Right?!
"Pressing them into the juice".
If you have a soaking sponge and press it on a hot surface, it is wetter or dryer than before you pressed.
A 5 year old knows not to press meat on a pan SMH.
Its Wendys my man. These are not quality meats...they are meant for fast cooking. I rarely have fast food like this cause Im always hungry after...theyre so thin all these fast food meats.
So then I found out its cheaper to buy from my "organic" butcher. I get 8oz burger patties for example, real beef for $8 a 4 pack...
Because everyone wants a dry burger
Meanwhile in the real world, his coworkers look on in horror as he seizes on the floor.
That's what we came for.
No lie: when Dave is talking I'm calmed. Anything other than him my anxiety level is over 9000!
“Every burger you cook should be the best in da bin-nes.”
- Dave Thomas Guy
"Don't touch them with your hands thats a big no no"
*immediately touches the cheese with no gloves*
Pretty sure he meant once it's cooked. He put the cheese on the grill to make it hot. You can touch food that's going to be cooked without wearing gloves. You can't touch food that already is cooked (like the finished cheeseburgers) or won't be cooked (like salads) without wearing gloves.
Nobody wore gloves then
@@maxheadrum9030 sometimes, what you don't know won't hurt you.
Wendy's workers who didnt see the video is where AIDS really started back then

“We make a old fayshuned burger, the best in the bidness”

bidness
LOLOLOLOL
Don't forget that they only used the frayshest beef. 😂
"Bidness nigga" gtav
1:23 “the patty tastes better because the sawdust pressed into the meat makes the meat more tender and also makes the patty larger”. Dave giving away all the Wendy’s sawdusty secrets.
You know it's fresh because they got a black guy to do a rap about it.
I laughed so much through these training videos, thank you so much for uploading them. Whenever I’m cooking now I’m like yeah grill skills 😂😂
Just in case you didn't know, the burgers are square, so the meat hangs over the bun.
the customer will like that
And people will like that!
I DO like the meat hanging over the bun. I AM The Customer, Case Closed!
Are u sure? When did they say that?
I’m pretty sure it’s because Wendy’s doesn’t cut corners though.
IT'S PATTIED IN SQUARES SO THE MEAT HANGS OVER THE BUN. DUNNO IF WE MENTIONED THAT.
Not so fast, I need to write this down...
What about the old faceond hamburgers?
+Car Car Binks the best in the bidness
AND PEOPLE WILL LIKE THAT
what.. what is off about that sentence i must know o_O
Dave Thomas WAS wendys. From entry level employee to the CEO
And then his Daughter, Wendy herself took over in 2002 after he passed away. She kept Wendys a Great Company throughout in 2000s, and even brought her Xennial Son on board. But then due to the Recession of 2008, P&G decided to sell Wendys to ConAgra Foods, and ConAgra decided in 2010 that the Thomas family shouldn't be running the company, so they fired her in 2010. And its been going downhill since then.
I now know how to cook a Wendy’s Oldfaceshened Hamburger.
Thanks Dave! 👍🏻👍🏻
The new guy has been hitting the Crystal Pepsi a little to hard.
Underrated comment lmao
😂😂😂 Man that's funny
I think it pronounced crystal meth
@@DeedeeandtheBeebee I don't think you got the joke.
So this rapper doesn't exist in the established Wendy's canon, right? I just need to get my lore straight.
I thought you meant Dave Thomas was the rapper
Imma tell my kids this was 2pac.
Dave Thomas had more beef than any rapper, ever.
so that's how Wendy's be having them roasts tweets
He's an SCP
I come back and watch this when Wendy’s actually makes the burger right, today was one of those days
This… and Hot Drinks! The best training videos ever!
Seriously, if companies still made training videos fun and interesting like THIS, I know associates would retain a LOT more of what they’re taught before being thrown to the lions.
How do I know it works?
Because of my old job at Shoprite, and the bagging training video they had for cashiers. The haaaaaam! 🤣
"Hey John" "Yeah Billy?" "That's the last time I take LSD before my shift. Shit got weird"
That's exactly what I thought. Designed for stoners - lol.
Hahaha....I've been there done that,its very strange
"If you see a dead rat, throw it in too. All of it turns into chili goo."
Lmao
LOL
"But shave that rat first and chop off the tail.
I don't know about you,but I ain't going to jail!" 🎶
@@kevincrisantemi1891 LOL! 🤣🤣
Hey , don't eat my finger. Gimme that dude
I love hearing about the old-fayshioned bidness.
RIP Dave Thomas.
Last note. I love watching these old training videos. The old days were definitely better than our current era.
I used to work at Wendy's back in the early 90s when I was 16 I loved watching these videos my first station was the toasting station where I would toast the Buns all day then I got moved up to fries then I was making the big bucks then they moved Burger Station where I would put all the condiments on memorizing all the sandwiches was really hard but one day I had a dream that I was working and I actually taught myself all the sandwiches in my dream then I got moved over to the grill station and i did the delicious burgers if they ever got overcooked we would chop them up and put them into the chili
one day we got really busy during a rush and we were understaffed I knew what Dave wanted me to do so when nobody was paying attention I went to the back grabbed my skateboard went out the back door and never came back except to grab my paycheck thanks Dave it was great
By the way this is the exact video they made me watch I remember telling everybody at school about the guy that rapped teaching me about the grill pure cringe
A fully staffed Wendys with a clean cut crew. That hasn't existed in many years
well I know for a fact that after Dave passed away, they slowly started changing all his ideas for a more Mcdonald and BK style from getting rid of their (I don't know how they did it) really quick single line ordering like they do in drive through they got rid of the salad bar, the burgers did get smaller (no longer smashed) and now the meat is a quarter pound before it gets cooked not after.
@@bigoz169yep, burgers suck now
The one I stop at the crew is all sweaty and coked out! 😂😅
@@AZISMYKINGDOM No kidding here in Tampa with exception of Chick fil a all fast food restaurants allow smoking weed while on break and hey I used to like my weed every once in a while on my days off but I worked at McDonald's and that has lost them a lot of customers in the past 6 years.
Why the fuck would people get “clean cut” to get paid basically nothing to work at a fuckin Wendy’s ? Teenagers make money on the internet now so I don’t want to hear it’s a kids job. This job is for desperate people at the end of their rope and you should expect low quality.
Dave Thomas woke up in a cold sweat, one evening in 1969, two words reverberating through his mind; grill skills.
Wish they still did it like this. Those who remember know that Wendys burger tasted WAY better when they did it this old way.
Dave Thomas was and always will be an American Treasure
Things I learned:
-Wendys presses the shit out of the meat
-The amount of grease fires must have been crazy
-They just re-use bad meat for the chili
-Dave Thomas can’t say ‘Fashioned’
Did Wendy's have chili in the 80s?? Glad I wasn't alive to have it because that sounds, rather unhealthy
@@kenskingdom9288 omg I know someone who eats that chili whenever they go there and spend the night on the toilet.
Fayshioned
Don't forget the acid you drop before work
I think Dave was having a stroke. Or has been day drinking.
5:10 "We don't want a broken patty."
6:20 - cuts the patty in half with spatula
Also, Billy didn't rewind the tape after watching it.
I'm guessing that he'll last a week at most.
back in the day(the 80's)we called broken, or burned patties, "chili meat".
Pay attention - it was that manager Mary who pulled the tape. Bill never had a chance...
If he got distracted by a tv with the power turned off he’s not going to survive on the line.
@John R we know who wasn't paying attention to the training tape
@John R 🤣🤣🤣
Wild that they have a dedicated wall mounted tv with built in VHS in the 80s. Wendy's was ahead of its time, and only used 100% pure ground beef pressed into squares; so the meat hangs off the side.
11:30 " Bill....Bill?! ....HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU NOT TO COME INTO WORK HIGH!?"
Well, it's Bill Burr, so.
"Hi, I'm Dave Thomas, and I was most certainly hammered while making this video!"
chalk full of painkillers while recovering from his fifth triple bypass
He said “Best in the bidness” 😆

Lmfao
Damn so chili buckets are a real thing huh 🤔
This guy turned on the TV and realized he took one too many caps before coming into work.
Last time bill takes mushrooms before his shift
I watched this 400 times. I have studied the employee training manual front and back. Wish me luck at the interview guys. I have trained for years for this opportunity.
Well? Did you have the skills?
@@missjess82 probably but we’ll never know unfortunately.
@@SkinniJ I'm sure he was pretty disappointed when they told him the video was 40 years old and that they no longer use those machines due to being out of commission for years but I'm sure Dave would have been proud!
“You have trained for years for this opportunity...so you be the laughing stock of your community”....
😅😂😂😂
Do a shot every time Dave says "old fayshioned."
Alcohol poisoning!
how to turn anyone into a demoman
Mind your bidness
Thats when grill skills guy visits you
I thought I was the only one that kept hearing "faysion"
Nothing like having the owner of the company standing over you while you're working.
Yes, the 90s were exactly like this. Fair fucks to the rap fella, he earned his fifty bucks.
Imagine being a part-timer making ends meet and the goddamn CEO walks up right next to you
Dude this sounds like a panic attack waiting to happen. Yikes! 😱😱😱
Fark him. He's only the CEO. Im in Australia and at my last company (not huge German owned multinational in 60 countries doing 2.6 billion a year) there was a guy trying introduce himself and I was kinda in the middle of something and half ignored him til he made a point of shaking my hand. Later found out he ran the whole of Australia and Asia. 😂
I was going to like this comment, but I'm not so that it stays at 69
Wow, I never see black and white people work at Wendy's anymore. All I've ever seen is Mexicans. The 80s and 90s where definitely a different time I personally miss. I'm sure these employees where never paid to be on the cheesy training video.
maybe after humanity has destroyed itself and has been lost to the sands of time, whatever sentient creatures that inherit the planet will find this and guide their understanding of the universe.
as it should. America rocked in the eighties.
America rocked indeed🤟
They will be wasting their time trying to invent a TV that sucks you into another reality.
*DRINKING GAME*
Take a sip every time someone says:
- "100% BEEF"
- "BURGERS ARE SQUARE"
- "HANGS OVER THE BUN"
- "AND PEOPLE LIKE THAT"
Sometimes art is crafted. Sometimes it is accidental. This defies both origins and yet is decidedly art.
“Try choking up a little on the spatula.”
That’s good advice in any situation.

next week it's the fries.
*And that's when the big bucks*

Lol good stuff... my buns have no seeds
Can't help but smile a little. They took a boring task and made it fun and .... now I know how to cook Wendy's old "fayshin" burgers! #winning
I’m very high and this made me feel like I fell into a dimensional time sink.
At 16, Bill had his first epileptic seizure. He was found dead, face down, on the grill after a second massive seizure thought to have been induced by watching a training video just minutes earlier.
Lmao😆
Sounds like we need the SCP foundation....
That's why it's called grillskill. It's not grill skill, it's grills kill lol
Lol am dying 😂😂😂
They put him in the chili
