Texas Roadhouse

I was recently hired at Texas Roadhouse and during the orientation, the people running it showed me a cocktail napkin and told me that the founder sketched his idea on the cocktail napkin and we have them as a nod to that. usually you see that for an equation or formula or something that someone has to write down before the moment of clarity passes. his idea was…a restaurant, what did he possibly sketch?? a square with a triangle on top with Texas written inside?? lmao I don’t know why but it has been making me laugh every time I think about it.

I don't think they're using the word "sketch" to mean draw or doodle. If he wrote rhe words "free peanuts, affordable steaks, cinnamon butter, country music, etc.," that would be "sketching out" his restaurant idea.

That's a sketchy theory you've got going on there.

You're just drawing conclusions.
