Is Lyle going to get a bug in his butt and start poking through the books because he's bitter and feels under-paid? No. He's happy and claps for the man. Does he use them by making them happy and the place a good one to work? Sure. But he's still using them. "But gruhn, he doesn't actually have them do anything other than sell chikka." Exactly. That's all they do.

There is something interesting about Gus' facial expression towards the end when his employees clap. He almost looks surprised and even uncomfortable at first but then appears to relax and become somewhat content. I'm guessing this is one of the few times in his life he has received support and praise not out of fear or submission, but instead from genuine admiration for his words and actions (despite the narrative being mostly a lie). The employees had no reason to believe they should fear Gus and I think Gus realizes their approval is different from that of someone who knows his power and that he could choose to end their life at a moment's notice.

He treats his workers well because he knows how to conduct sound business. Appreciated and well paid workers are happy workers. Happy workers are loyal and dedicated workers. The reason so many modern fast food places have bad food is because the bosses are insecure bullies who have no spine and bend to corporate influence. Gus knows how to run a business efficiently.

A beautifully written scene, beautifully acted. We, the audience, are aware of the profound ironies, but Gus' performance (and Esposito's) is so sincere, that his employees can't help but be affected and moved to loyalty.

He can shift between a charming, charismatic nice guy and a ruthless, menacing villain at the blink of an eye. And he portrays each version of Gustavo with elegance that you don't even know as an audience member which side to believe is the real him.

This shows how much Fring respected his workers, especially those who aren’t involved in the criminal empire he built. He likely paid and treated them better than most commercial fast food chains would. He even had the decency to have them paid for the whole day and let them leave early to protect them from Hector and his men. 24 hours overtime pay is also a more than generous gesture. Fring had the perfect cover for his empire and knew how to solidify it well before Heisenberg came into the picture

I gotta hand it to him, Gus is a damn good boss. Like, even though he's done some pretty horrendous stuff, he still cares very deeply for all of his employees. Despite all the disrespect he's been given by the Salamancas, them coming and intimidating the Los Pollos Hermanos crew seemed to really get under skin.

0:42 The fly still escaped the staff's alertness... and most of all, Lyle's. It is unacceptable.

I worked at Los Pollos Hermanos as a teenager and Mr Fring was the greatest boss I ever had. I don't believe all the news stories that came out about him, I believe that Walter White was simply jealous of the explosive deals that we offered and set up Mr Fring.

I like Gus's story that Hector and his henchmen were just some Mexican thugs who threaten businesses for money, who actually followed one of their marks across the border into the US instead of just finding another target... Doesn't really make any sense whatsoever, so Gus gives an inspirational "Go USA!" speech and everyone's satisfied lmao 😂😂

Notice how Gus admits to a 'shameful' act when he says he paid the thugs protection money back in Mexico. If he admits to that, surely the rest of his story can be trusted as well. Just another example of Gus understanding that it's not just what you say, it's how you say it.

Lyle is the most loyal associate of Gustavo's operation.

Never seen this show, but the boss seems like such a good person and an inspiration. Really moved by his story

The way Gus walks towards the restaurant is so innocent with the way he walks and his hand mannerisms. You could really tell that he's in his 'other' personality

I always liked Lyle as a character,so trustworthy and caring.We could see that Gus trusts him so much that he hands over the restaurant to Lyle when he was injured.

It's weird how easily I can forget the evil things he does and have a sudden respect for him. Even while he's lying to his employees.

This is why Gustavo is a great character. He shows great passion to his employees and understands they are just like everyone else. I think they remind him of his old partner, which is why he treats them with such respect.

The sound of the window cleaning just makes the scene 10 times better in my opinion. It can’t just be me right?

I feel really sorry for those employees. They don’t know a thing about what their boss does outside of the restaurant. I’m surprised none of them were killed by Gus’ enemies.

I love how none of the employees think it's odd that the proprietor of a fast food joint has the oratory skills of Cicero. IRL the GM of your average fast food restaurant has about as much charisma as the neck beard from the World of Warcraft South Park episode...
