Pet Peeves club?

[InSearchOfSunset]

I thought I'd join the club lol mainly cuz I hope it will make me feel better to rant
*note that these apply to fast food customers*

1) please don't purposely leave your money on the counter for me to pick up cuz you find it funny and please don't give me the catbutt face when I do that with your change.. you started it!
2) don't just demand your university discount in some snotty tone in my drive thru... especially when you're driving a car that's worth more than 5 years of my wage.. honestly you aren't saving THAT much!!!!(yay a whole TEN %.. at our prices that's an average of 50cents an order)
3) don't come up to me and ask "what's on the menu" ... when the damn thing is RIGHT ABOVE MY HEAD!!!!
4) You're right, I'm a terrible person for asking you to leave my lobby because you decided underage drinking would be SO much fun and even more so if you emptied the fruits of your labour in my lobby
5) it would be appreciated if you didn't sit at the window rooting through your bag of food making sure you have everything when there's massive amounts of cars behind you at least have the decency to pull into the lot for that.
6) You're right again.. I AM most definitly a terrible and horrible person for calling the cops on you when you threaten to wait outside for the night staff to get off so you can beat the crap out of them.. for no reason at all.. do you feel like a big man saying threats like that?
7)I'm sorry I don't speak your foreign language.. do NOT scream at me in it either.. saying it louder will not help me try to figure out what you want
8) really.. I am actually sorry your food is taking so long.. I don't know if you've noticed or not, but there are THREE employees working..THREE!!! and it's a 230am bar rush. We can only go so fast. please don't demand that I bump your food in front of everyone else who has been waiting just as long
9) you came in the restaurant, asked for your food to go, THEN sat in the lobby beside a garbage can, then just left everything on the table for me to clean up..
10) that condescending tone you use to fast food employees? the one that says you think we are too far below you on the social ladder.. good luck when you're applying for a job in the future and my CW taking his bach of business is the one doing the interview...
11) That cheesey joke you just used.. and when I didn't laugh you said I must be too dumb for.. guess what.. I've heard it HUNDREDS of bloody times.. it wasn't even funny to begin with ( I get a lot of people-"and to drink?" .."do you guys have beer*chuckle/guffaw/laugh/etc*"
12) I can't believe you just walked in my restaurant, up to my counter, listen to me ask "hi what can I get for you tonight" .. and STILL you just have to ask me "are you open?" *facepalm* (plus there's a neon sign saying "open 24hours" )
13) I'm sorry I or one of my CW's messed up your order.. mistakes happen and I can fix them no problem I can also do extra (refund+new food+coupons for future visit).. however I am less inclined to actually do so when you are throwing a temper tantrum and insulting everyone here
14) *warning* this is my all time pet peeve and it will contain some language
...
YES!!! Your stupid fucking mcchicken sauce is in the bag!! stop bloody asking me!!!!!!

*note*= almost every single person asks this if it's in their order.. personally I'd be more worried that I didn't get my sandwich or fries instead of some ten cent pack of "mayo like substance" <-- says that on the box for real
ok sorry that was pretty long but it's been building and I kinda feel better now lol

There are McDonalds open at 2:30 am? Around here, the latest they are open is 1 or 2...and that's only on Friday and Saturday nights! The rest of the week it's either 11 or 12.

McChicken sauce? I thought it all came with the sandwich? You mean people want even MORE mayo than what's already on it? Forgive me, as I do love me some lots of mayo, but there is so much mayo on the McChicken as it is (where I go, anyway) that I bite into it and some of it squirts out the other end. And people want more?!

[Broomjockey]

. And people want more?!

For their fries. Not for the sandwich. That's why they get it on the side.

[blas]

Oh now I see. I suppose if I didn't eat alone so much I'd know that.

To each their own. Personally, I prefer ketchup with my fries.....but then again, I have been known to get one of those McFlurries and dip my fries in there. And while I'm sober, I will add. No, I'm not pregnant. It tastes great! But don't do it with any other fries....McDonalds ones are best because they are the saltiest. But also don't do it if you get the wet soggy fries.....they gotta be stiff and hot.

[jerkface11]

You can't get that sauce in the states. It's a Canada only thing. Oh and all the Mcd's around here at least have the drivethru open 24 hours.

I do that too! Another great thing to dip your fries into is the Wendy's Frosties! So good!

Same here, but the "late night" menu sucks. Can't even get a basic hamburger, it's gotta be a quarter pounder, big mac, or one of three other sandwiches they offer from 12-6AM. :/

[InSearchOfSunset]

yeah last december the franchise owner of my mcds decided that it would be so much clever ( as in he wanted more money) to just keep the restaurant open 24hours.. both lobby and DT. never mind the fact all we get are drunk kids ..
and yeah here you can get little packets of mayo like substance .. about the same size as a ketchup packet but we charge for them .. which also pisses people off

[HorrorFrogPrincess]

I do that too! Another great thing to dip your fries into is the Wendy's Frosties! So good!

Only if it's the chocolate frosty.

Hot salty fries and sweet chocolate shakes go SOOO well together no matter where you get them.

Dang I never heard of that before. We have the full menu. Breakfast starts at 3.

[Nurian]

It's bad when you work third shift and your "lunch" is at 4. I don't want breakfast, I want a burger(-sque like substance)! But I won't be a jackass to the people that make my food. I've seen ...Waiting.

yay

One of my pet peeves is people who don't break down their cardboard boxes before tossing them in the baler, and who pack the baler too full of boxes before a bale is even made.

Also, people who know how to make a bale but refuse to do so because they're lazy and I end up having to do it all the freaking time. Not that I'm bitter or anything.

If the boxes aren't broken down and the baler is overfilled, cardboard gets squeezed into the holes we put the wires through, and then I can't push the ram through the holes to clear them out. I just end up banging cardboard and stinging my hands good.

I found a work-around to this today though--push the ram in as far as it will go, and then force the ram through by bashing it with a REALLY FUN SLEDGEHAMMER!

[Becks]

At my current place of employment, the following conversation happens all too frequently...

Me/other cashiers/baggers: Is/are (a) plastic bag(s) okay?
Customers: No, I want a bag.



Yes, we know very well that they mean paper, but still. The way they word their response gets on my last nerve.

[RetailWorkhorse]

There are McDonalds open at 2:30 am?

I've got two of them in my Small Township (it's barely big enough to be called a Town and we have two McD's), and they are both open 24 hours.

It's been really difficult, because I've been having these horrible cravings for super cheap burgers from the dollar menu and I really REALLY hate McD's. :-\

Hot salty fries and sweet chocolate shakes go SOOO well together no matter where you get them.

AMEN SISTER!

Dammit, now I want a milkshake.
