your worst experience at fast food

Published May. 15, 2008

Okay, So I've worked fast food before and It's really not a hard job. I think MOST of the problems arise today because alot of the workers lack the proper language to deal with a mostly english speaking population. NOT racist, just a fact.

 

Okay so here's my story.

One afternoon I was running errands with my daughter. I decided to go thru Mcd's and get 3 things off the dollar menu that her and I could share. So I order a cheeseburger, small fries and a small drink.

I get to the window and the girl hands me the bag and doesn't even say thank you. I ALWAYS check my food. I was like excuse me this isn't my food. She's like you ordered this. I was like no ma'am I didn't, I repeated my order. She takes the bag, She then brings it back, THE SAME BAG without fries and walks away. Im like EXCUSE me, she comes back and Im like okay lets try this again and I repeated my order and she's looking at me like I just swallowed a dang fly.

She tries a THIRD TIME and still screws it up. Im like you need to get your manager and give me my food correctly( I didnt want what she was trying to give me, it was someone elses food, like  a big combo ).

So The manager comes to the window and says how can I help you? Im like first of all just get A SIMPLE order right man, cheeseburger, fries and a drink. 2nd of all, the girl handed me the same bag trying to switch food out of it three different times, THE JOB ISNT THAT HARD, I know it's not from experience in the past.

He apologizes like he really cares @@ and then gets my food. He's like anything else ? Im like yes maybe mcdonalds need to change their slogan to we'll agitate the h*** out of you cause we love to see you smile isnt working.

Workers were mexican and manager indian,  communication must be heck.

Speaking of Mcdonalds. I applied at a local mcdonalds just part time for some extra cash ( working nights after the kids are in bed ) the african american manager said I would be perfect cause i scored perfect on the little customer service quiz you have to take. She asked where my hubby worked and I told her. She never called me back.

One month later I went up there and I was like I want the number for your regional and district managers, another manager working the dayshift is like why. Im like I was told I would be perfect to work here at nights until I told the other girl where my husband worked and I see you have about 5 new workers, non white, Im going to sue you. Basically she didn't bother to call me cause my hubby works out at RTP but guess what ? that doesnt mean we are millionaires.

Yes I have called both regional and district managers, waiting for some call backs now.

sorry felt the need to add that in.

 so what is your worst experience at a fast food joint

Unfortunately I have to eat fast food everyday because I'm too lazy to pack a lunch. I usually do McDonalds 2-3 time a week because I can get a chicken sandwich, small fry, and a water and get out for $2.16. That's a cheap lunch. My latest bad experience with fast food was at the McDonald's at Spring Forest and Falls of the Neuse Rd. in N Raleigh. No complaints about the food or the service. It was the freakin' parking lot. They have one little tiny driveway in and out. The drive-through line at lunch is literally wrapped all the way around the building. It's next to impossible to get out of a parking place because of the line. Won't be back there again.

texas, if they did their job effiently it wouldnt be a problem, its called fast food for a reason.

My mom and I went to Taco Bell today during the lunch rush. When I got up there to order, I heard the lady ask the manager if she would take a break. The manager laughed and said "A break? Girl this is the lunch rush, you can't take nothing". The girl just leaned up against the wall with her eyes closed. The manager took my order and was trying to show the girl how to put it in and she was looking around the room and closing her eyes and stuff. I ordered 2 small drinks and she gave me 1 cup, I had to tell her 2 times that I needed another cup. I gave her exact change and it must have confused her because she couldn't press the $5, $10, $20 key because she had to ask the manager how to enter it in. Then she asked her how much change to give me.

i like burger king..they never mess my order up...i always get 10 g of transfat, 1800 calories, 1795 calories from fat, 68 g of carbs, 120 grams of sodium, and enough cholesterol to kill a horse

I realize this is "lets dog fast food tonight", however, in their defense they put up with as much sheet as you are describing.

"Chick-fil-A ROCKS! Everytime I leave there, I leave smiling!"

Yes, but do they get your order right? ;)

i dunno if smithfield's barbeque counts as fast food, but I got brunswick stew from there, and i'm pretty positive it had poo in it...i'm thinking some intestines (full ones) were accidentally chopped or something. whatever it was, there were two clumps of it...looked just like poo...and it smelled funky...

And another story from me on Chik-fil-a... everytime I give my order at the intercom, I always say thank you and EVERY SINGLE time I hear, "my pleasure"...drive up to the window one person takes my card (remember, never carry cash lol) and the other is handing me my order and ALWAYS asks if I need ketchup. I thank them again and hear AGAIN, my pleasure! What?! I think I need to buy a franchise I love them so much...hmmmm....

what video?

Wow that video? I think that would be the only time I would consider beating the h3ll out of my child if they did stuff like that. Talk about LOOSERS. After I beat my child I'd follow them and watch them do it and call the cops on them myself
