This oughtta be a fairly quick one...
I used to work in BK for a few years (my first permanent job, and ye gods did I smell when I got off shift) and I just got reminded of this whilst browsing the War Stories forum.
Was working on tills (a position I avoided as much as possible, but alas this day no luck) when a couple of kids (can't have been any older than 12, I swear) who I'd never seen (and it had been pretty quiet for the last couple of hours) come marching up to me asking me if their food is ready.
Me: I'm sorry?
Kid: We ordered some Chicken Royales and there weren't any ready, so we said we'd wait outside until they were done. (unlikely, there are always Royales prepared, they're one of the most popular items on the menu)
Me: Who served you?
Kid: *points at one of the Chinese girls at the desk who is just going on lunch*
Me: *checks the order history on the till (they go back for like, 10-15 orders) finding nothing*
Me: I'm sorry, I can't see any order for Chicken Royales on this till.
Kid: Nah, she served us, like, 5 minutes ago.
"Aha" think I, "Pulling a fast one are we? Think just because she's Chinese she won't be able to call you out? We'll see about that you little *expletive deleted*"
Me: (Co-worker who's name I no longer recall - hey, it was 3 years ago :P) Do you remember serving these two?
CW: No, I don't think so.
Kid: Yeah you did, you served us.
CW: No, I've never seen you before.
Kid: Yeah you did, you're lying.
Ok, why would she lie? Is her life so empty she needs to have her fun by depriving stupid little kids of horribly fattening food?
At this point I tell the kid I don't believe him, there's no record of his order (I checked the other tills too) and he starts getting abusive. So I go get the manager, who checks the security tapes. Sure enough, the first time they enter the store is when they march up to me and start demanding food.
So the manager comes back out and tells them to sod off, at which point they ask for the number for head office.
These kids are obviously lying, and waited while we checked the tapes, and now they want to complain?
Anyway, Manager gives them the number, and they strut out of the store looking smug (even though they got absolutely nothing).
Needless to say, we never heard anything from the higher-ups...
So what the hell happened here? Are Sucky Customers training their Sucky Offspring to produce a new generation? I thought Suckiness was restricted to adults - now I can't help but wonder if someone is trying to breed a Sucky Army :P
Anyone else had any Sucky Kids?
