  • How many ways can you amuse yourself in DT?

    Ok, I got this idea from another post.

    How do you amuse yourself while working in DT? I know that I do not work in the only fast food joint that goofs off occasionally. (Mostly late at night when the "fun" people come out )

    Just a short list of things we have done in the past...

    *Replaying the And Theeeennnn game from that movie with the drunk people on friday and saturdays nights.

    *Also another fun game with the drunks is.....How Many People? Everytime it is required for us to talk with the customer we have a different person talk.(We have 6 headsets) Then we wait to see if they notice.

    *One of the girls will take the order using a valley girl type voice. Then we have one of our big "manly" man types meet them at the window. Bonus if we can get him to try and talk in girly voice.

    *Keep count of how many customers mis-pronounce items on the menu. Bonus if they were sober.

    *Try and guess what the customer is gonna order. Once I said the same thing as the customer at the exact same time.

    *Take turns trying to use Jedi Mind Trick to get them to order item that was messed up on last order. (ie: Car before them ordered 2 soft tacos no lettuce...idiot CW(j/k) put lettuce on them. Thus insues..."You want to order 2 soft tacos") Bonus if it's an oddball item and they actually order it.

    *Take bets on how many customers will answer the question "Would you like any Hot, Mild or Fire sauce tonight?" wrong.
    Most common answers:
    -Yeah
    -Both
    -Medium
    -Hot and Medium, or the other one Mild and Medium *sorry didn't know Medium was an option* Also never fails that they look at me like I have a crackpipe hanging out of my mouth when I tell them we do not have Medium.



    It's all in good fun and it helps pass the time on those late nights when your open till 3 or 4 am. So like I said I know there are others out there like us. So what do you do to keep yourself amused?

        At my job, it's too damn busy during the day to play any games, but on GY we like to play them all the time, cause it gets slow and boring late at night.

        Sometimes we get rep shoppers. This is when someone calls in, we have to tell them no, so they hang up and call back repeatedly trying to get someone who will say yes. We place vending machine bets on will get the rep shopper next, or whether they will get the same person twice.

        Also we will see how blunt or off the wall we can get with them without actually being rude. Okay, so I spoke to you 15 minutes ago and you told me your name was Jane Smith. So now your name is Frances Jones? Are you in the witness protection program or something? Well then why are you giving us two different names?

        We also like to make little bitty airplanes out of post it notes, and try to stick them each other's hair without being caught. And we call each other by sarcastic nicknames.
        Because as we all know, on the Internet all men are men, all women are men and all children are FBI agents.

          Well in downtime.
          1. We just usually keep the office clean.
          2. Take a ride on the golf-cart and check on the lot.
          3. Get on the internet
          4. Pay Bills

            One guy at my old job liked to goof around when repeating orders to the customers on DT.

            Customer: I'd like an apple cinnamon doughnut, and a chocolate-iced custard-filled.
            Employee: Ok, so that's one apple cinnininamon, and one chocolate-iced mustard-filled!

            Another co-worker had a habit of asking the DT customers if their order was to stay or to go.

            The drive-thru guy at the local Taco Bell did that me one late night! I had never seen the movie, but I knew enough from the commercials to play along.

            Also, you know how TB has funny little sayings on the sauce packets? I heard rumor that the whole thing started at a TB in a town near me, where one of the drive-thru workers would scribble things on the sauce packets before giving them out. Supposedly it got around to corporate, which liked the idea and made it official. Dunno if that's actually how it got started, but I know the guy that supposedly started it, and it definitely seems like something he'd do.
