  • Tales from the McDarkside

    It's been a while since I last posted. I'm glad to be back

    This first one was told to me by a manager.

    I'm pretty sure that the majority of you know that our Cinnimelts come in a box that is clearly labelled "Cinnimelts"

    Well, it wasn't obvious enough to this guy.

    SC : *comes in and throws a bag down* I didn't get my Cinnimelt! I ordered one and I never got one!

    D: *opens the bag and looks in* Um. You did actually. It's that box right there.

    SC: "Oh..." *snatches up bag and storms out*

    It wouldn't have been so sucky if he wasn't yelling at D.

    Ok. So we have this crazy lady come in at least once a month. There has been only one time I have been unlucky to have been there when she decided to haunt our drive thru. She always orders something in a weird way (I don't even remember. It's that weird). Then she complains when we try to clarify things or let her know that things don't work that way. The only time I was there when she came in, I was on cash and got most of her wrath.

    Apparently, she's going to have one of my manager's jobs.

    Oh yeah. She used that line. When my manager, De told me this, I busted out laughing and the first thing that came to mind was "CS.COM!!"

    This one I am about to tell you, occurred last night. This, ladies and gents, was the first time I ever snapped on ANY customer in the three years I have worked ANYWHERE. I have endured flying food, total verbal abuse, threats on my life, etc. But this, I could not handle.

    I was on Drive thru headset.

    SC: "I want six nuggets."
    Me: *types in a six piece* "Alright. Did you want any bbq sauce for your nuggets?" (We have to ask them this anytime they order nuggets.)
    SC: *mumbles the number six*
    Me: *thinking he meant 6 six pieces* "I'm sorry. Did you say you want six of the six piece nuggets?"
    SC: "I JUST WANT SIX NUGGETS!!!!!"
    Me: "Alright. Sorry about that. Did you want any bbq for your nuggets?"
    SC:" I JUST WANT SIX NUGGETS!!! HOW HARD IS IT TO UNDERSTAND THAT?!!!!"
    Me: "Alright! I was just asking a simple question if you wanted something, but obviously it's no. Your total comes to $2.35. Please pull forward."

    Everyone looked at me and stated how much of an ahole he was.

    I know I shouldn't have used that tone with him or even said it in a nice tone. I was just doing my job. I am supposed to ask these questions. Plus (and please just understand, I'm not trying to make excuses for my behavior), the past couple of days have been pretty tough. One of my closest friends did a hell of alot of cocaine and then in his stupidity, downed almost a whole bottle of some strong alcohol (I forgot what it was). He almost died. I was the one who rushed to his house to be there with him, hold back his hair as he puked, hold him as he cried about how he shouldn't have done that and how he might die before seeing his unborn daughter and how good of a friend I am, bring him water so he wouldn't dehydrate from puking so much. Just seeing all of that put me over the edge. I've been checking up on him every day and he has sworn off the drugs for good.

    Oh and by the way. SC asked the cash taker if he could have bbq.

    Now, to try to lighten the mood, here is one last story that may just amuse you. My mom busted out laughing when I told her this one.

    Again, I was in drive thru, but by myself.

    Me: "Welcome to McDonald's, would you like to try a vanilla lattee today?"
    Customer: "No thank you. I would like a large Diet."
    Me: *waits a bit. After a while, the person didn't talk* "Will that complete your order today?"
    Customer: "Now wait. Hold on a minute."
    Me: *thinking* Oh heckie naw. He DID NOT just use that tone with me. That be a fightin' tone. Oh. It's on if he starts yelling at me. (I do get a little feisty in my thinking, but that's only in my thinking. I really don't get like that )
    Customer: "I'll have a breakfast burrito. No hot sauce please."
    Me: "Your total comes to $x.xx. Please pull forward."
    Me: *thinking* Ooo Let's see who this guy is!!"
    The customer pulls up, I open the window and it's...

    My Gym teacher.



    That's all I really want to talk about for now. My brain is fried. My Senior year of high school has already started and there have been alot of changes, including one of my favorite teachers becoming principal of the Junior High and leaving us. On the plus side, some of the teachers who left were replaced with some hot male teachers. Only thing is, they are the science teachers and I didn't sign up for any Science classes. Darn. Well, I still have my hot male math teacher and the hottest male teacher has me as his student aid.

    Ok...getting off topic now...
    "Kill the fat guy first?! That's racist!" - my friend Ironside at a Belegarth practice after being "killed" first.

        My local Maccers people are lovely. I can only imagine the types of idiots you have to deal with. Typical school teacher though. They talk to everyone like they are idiots
        Yes. I know my typing sucks but I have a large orange cat sitting on my keyboard and a small disturbed dog trying to sniff his butt

          wow, you are a true friend... a lot of people would have told him he made his bed now sleep in it... being that one that has before been woken up at odd hours of the night to pick people up from the hospital I know what it's like (I have a friend with asthma with parents who will burn in hell, he has a really bad attack a couple times a year that sends him to the hospital and without fail every time he calls his parents afterwords their response is "you're an adult, you can take care of yourself" then I get the call asking if I can give him a ride home )
          anyway, hopefully he's better now

          sorry for the

            I only tend to get that way if they do it 10+ times. After 10+ times of the same empty promises, I start to feel that perhaps there's nothing I can do but distance myself from the drama. I've lost a few friends that way but it's honestly better without the constant stress of people digging their own graves over and over.
