How Freaking hard is it to get a FAST Food order correct?

I know I am picky, but I mean seriously how hard is it? I just wanted a buger only with only ketchup on it. NO WHERE did I mention cheese, actually I asked for NO CHEESE, I just wanted the dang thing naked and plain, w/only ketchup. To add insult to injury, they forgot the ketchup.

Am I to picky here?

The scary part is that these people drive cars to get to work.

I suppose if you don't speak or understand much english its pretty hard to get it right. (not to mention the person behind the drive-through window rather be somewhere else)
I don't order out much, but last week both of my breakfast orders were wrong. I suppose I just bring my own EVERY day from now on.

And no, you're not picky.

Not picky, but weird. Who eats just meat, bread, and ketchup? You're missing out on all the best parts!

Just kidding, of course. To each his own.

well its not like they offer a kelel01 buger...

You have no idea how pissed off I get when my order gets fucked up. Seriously. I once threw a cheesburger back through the window at the girl after they fucked my order up three times in a row. PLAIN MEANS PLAIN!!! Ask Katie; she'll tell you!

Not that these punks are worth defending, but as an explanation..... In highscool when i used to flip meat at McD's. I was tripping on acid or mescaline for at least 1/2 of my shifts. the rest I was just stoned and enjoying the residuals from yesterdays trip. It's hard to keep shit straight when you aren't.

Speaking of speaking English, I was at Toys R Us today and they had some toys from the movie cars. The label on the box stated "This is an English speaking toy!"

Shouldn't it be?!?!

I've never worked in fast food, but I've always sympathized with the plight of these miserable bastards.

I mean, we bitch about "Why can't they get my order right?" But I'm sure they're bitching just as hard about "Why can't the damn customers just order right from the friggin' menu?"

As a rule, I never make exceptions or substitutions at a fast food joint. Remarkably, my orders are nearly always perfect.

REMEMBER, they're getting paid minimum wage. How much of a shit would YOU give about your job if you were making minimum wage?

I ALWAYS order special ... that way it is fresh, and generally they get paid more then minimum wage. If they dont like the job they could go somewhere else. Theres not a sign that doesnt say "no special orders"

Fast food places around here pay a couple dollars more than minimum wage.

I always order my cheeseburgers 'no pickles, extra ketchup'.

The last 3 burgers I have gotten were extra pickles, no ketchup.

well..... you have to consider why they are working at Hardees to begin with. Most of them have the IQ of a turnip (no offense to anyone here who works at Hardees). Why is it our fault that they choose to screw off in high school and drop out or whatever they did to put themselves in that situation?

We went on vacation down south. Everywhere we went they said "have a happy Jesus day!" when they waited on us. The orders were always wrong.
We went thru one Hardees drive thru where Streaker asked for McNuggets. Of course they said they didn't HAVE McNuggets. He said "then what the hell do you have that's chicken?" The kid said "sir, you can't curse at me" and turned off the microphone thingy.
Streaker went up to the window on foot, forced it open and yelled "have a happy FUCKING JESUS DAY!!" at them and we drove off.
The kids thought their dad was a hero.
My oldest has told this story all over the world. Everyonce in a while we'll get a post card from some exotic place in a foreign language and the bottom line reads "have a happy FUCKING JESUS DAY!!"

I never said I wanted a meal... I just wanted a sandwich the way I ordered it. I even verified the order on the screen to ensure it was correct. If I pay for a plain sandwich... give me a plain sandwich. If the person making the sandwich can't understand what my order means... well maybe you should get a new job?

just for the record...it's freakin CARLS JUNIOR!!! yeah yeah I know, people round here call it hardees but that just dosen't seem right.

I may not agree with what you have to say but i'll defend to the death your right to say it.

That's cuz it says hardees on the sign. Not Carl's junior.

I remember when I was in Oregon in the late 90's, we had a "Carl's junior" but it was changed over to Hardy's

My only so called 'substitution' was the cream cheese on the side not on the bagel. All they had to do was take a wee little cup of shmear out of the fridge and throw it in the bag and they still got it wrong. Must have been my accent when I said ON THE SIDE !
