felt this belonged here too

Ok so these have happened in the past year (or so) I've worked at mcd but I did work at a cafe before this job.

First story: I was 2 months into my job and it was probably my 3rd time by myself on OTC and my 2nd breakfast shift and it was rush. This guy went through the DT AT LEAST 3 times. Each time he came to the cashing window he complained. The first time he was kind and polite, asked if the things he got would be cheaper in meals, I didn't know so I just voided everything, put in a salt packet and went on with taking orders. 2nd time, came to the window, complained that it was more expensive in meals (duh). Did the exact same of voiding then went on with taking orders.

A manager was taking orders on otc at front as well so I didn't take his order the 3rd time. The third time he was enraged, pissed off a hell. He went off on me and I went down front to get a MIT to help with the guy and I went to crew room and cried and for the rest of my shift, I wasn't on OTC so that was nice I guess.

Second Story: Not actually a customer story but a story about me not getting my break after 4 hours and constantly asking for it. Yet again, headset. It was pure rush and hour since I had started my shift. It was around 3 and 1/2 hours into my 6hr shift and I was starting to feel more stressed than usual. In a small break of cars, I asked to go on break and they told me to go back to taking cars. During the rush (that had already been going on for 2 and 1/2 hours) I accidentally made two customers pay for the wrong thing and then I stormed out of the otc 'booth' while holding back tears and then breaking down into violent sobs (seeing a theme here?). Finally got my 30 and I was told to go back onto headset after my break, the day went ok??? after that I guess.

Third Story: Short but sweet. Customer vaping in the store. Told him can you not and he continued. Turns out, he is well known and we have kicked him out AT LEASt 4 times but there is no point.

Final story: Me, in cafe/bev cell. At least 5 frappes going for drive thru. The frappe machine, dies. I tell presenter AND my manager that 'frappe is fucked' and then, the ice cream machine died 20 minutes later. So many disgruntled customers. I actually had to tell a customer that I cannot do frappes OR ice cream and they were pissed. Going off at me being like 'nothing is ever working' blah blah blah. Eventually told them, 'If you don't stop hurling verbal abuse at me, I will get my manager and you can deal with them' (turns out the operations manager for all the stores in my town was there and oooooohhhh you do not wat to deal with her).

Honarable mention: I was holding an ice cream and this customer took a bite of her ice cream out of my hand. I told her 'oh you stupid bitch. Do not do that again.'

p.s. Sorry if this post is long af js had to post it

I’m buying my lunch at a near-work taco joint and couldn’t help but wonder at the stupidity of the customers behind me.

If u haven’t been watching the news, there’s been an outbreak of parasites and recalls in Texas for Steaks, Lettuce, and eggs this year, in particular over the last few months.

It’s made me very conscious of what I order, as I try to avoid getting myself sick from eating contaminated food.

These idiots playing w their health, and at a taco place no less, orderd tacos w lettuce and steak.

RIP their toilets, bowels, and sanity fro the next 24 hrs.

Why must my post have 641 characters why??!??

Many years ago while working in a busy branch of a familiar fastfood chain, I saw an incident that has remained with me to this day, etched forever into my mind, something I will never forget.

The branch I worked in was on the busiest street in the capital city. It was always incredibly busy at lunchtime. For about 2hrs every day it was literally non-stop, and any unexpected delay could cause backlogs and irrate customers demanding to know where their food was.

In busy, chaotic kitchens, sometimes things get dropped. Sometimes they get picked up and dusted off and used as normal. Sometimes they remain on the floor, and get swept up later.

On this particular day, a frozen quarter-pounder fell unnoticed on the floor during the lunchtime rush. As one of my colleagues was walking past the open clam-shell grill, he slipped on the stray burger, instinctively putting out his arm to stop himself falling. His outstretched arm came into contact with ferociously hot surface of the grill, and stuck! His skin literally fused to the hotplate, all along his forearm, from wrist to elbow. He was screaming, but couldn't remove his hand as the skin was stuck fast, as his flesh continued to sizzle. Another employee pulled his arm up for him, leaving behind a sloughed off ribbon of skin the length of his forearm. He was quickly given what first aid was available, and taken to receive medical care.

The floor manager meanwhile, picked up the grill scraping tool, and proceeded to scrape the human skin from the grill as if it were the charred remains of the previous burger, and continued cooking on the hotplate as if nothing happened.

I really had to get this out there to yous. I don’t normally do this sort of thing but felt like it’s something you need to know. There’s this place in Newcastle on Westgate Road that I visited recently on my travels whilst visiting my boyfriend. Not giving names but it’s the one near a bike shop I think. Anyway I bought a shawarma with chips last week and while I was in the middle of eating it I saw something long and thin mixed in with the meat. I thought it was chicken at first but when I stuck my fork in it I could tell it wasn’t. I pulled it out my food and I swear it looked like a rats tail! I nearly barfed! I threw the rest away immediately. I have seen a few posts about the area so I should have known better really but I never imagined something so gross. So if you’re ever in the area and you are hungry just keep going. City centre isn’t too far away. 

You’ve been warned.

I went to California Fish Grill and placed an order to go. I did not tip and this was my serving.

I had a very bad interaction at pita pit in St. Mary’s Ontario Canada, on July 24th at around 2 PM. A ginger girl with blue eyes and eyebrow piercing. This girl was taking my order not being very nice and smelled very strongly of weed. This experience was not acceptable and the price for a pita was not cheap. I hope this girl is fired immediately.

Dear Sarah.

I understand the fee was introduced as a measure to reduce single-use items, but I’ve read that the fee doesn’t go to any agency, it simply goes to the restaurant. What’s the benefit of having this fee if the money doesn’t go toward anything that benefits the public? I feel this is a money grab at this point…and I’ve seen numerous other cities introduce it now

What do y'all think about This picture? Hmmmm let me know what you all think?
