    Default Fast Food Employees - RANT.

    Where do they find these people!?!?

    After repeating my order 3 or 4 times, and getting something COMPLETELY different in return (HOW DIFFICULT IS THIS PEOPLE!?!?!), my fries were also placed in my bag UPSIDE-DOWN. Are you effin' kidding me? That's pretty basic common sense. Don't put fries in upside-down. Kthanks.

    I probably haven't eaten burgers and fries in years because of this.

    If I were working under those conditions, I wouldn't put forth any effort to get things right, either.

    Most of them are teenagers and I don't trust bored teens with my food. Especially since my little sisters classmate who works at KFC revealed one day that he'd pissed in the cole slaw the day before and laughed as they served it to customers.

    OMG what the FUCK! That is so cruel

    I can't stand the bratty teens at fast food. They act so shitty, its like they make me feel guilty for asking them to do their job
    i actually give the nice ones a tip, because they are so rare but appreciated.

    Haha but I've given up fast food so hopefully I won't be dealing with that again (or at least until I have a fat attack)

    i'm with the other "what do you expect?" people. it's a crappy job that pays total bullshit. no real skills are required to work there other than that you "show up". add to that the fact that most of those people are treated like shit all day by management and/or customers, and you have employees who just don't give a damn anymore (if they ever did).

    i've eaten fast food aprox. once every 6 months over the last 3 or 4 years.

    although, that number will go up soon. i have to wake up early for a friday class now... and i can NOT refuse egg n cheese biscuits from mcdonalds.

    it's my only fast-food-crack item. i'm just USUALLY never up those hours.

    Fast food places simply amaze me. Trained monkeys could do a better job.
    I ordered a pizza at a pizza hut/kfc.
    The manager took my order and served my food. The pizza that was given to me looked like it was made a week ago and had been sitting under the lamp for days. I took one bite. it was absolutly disgusting. Then I discovered the time stamp on the box SERVE OR THROW AWAY BEFORE 10:50 am. It was fuckign 8:30pm!!!
    I walked back in and asked the speak to the manager which was when I discovered that was who had given me nearly 10 hour old food. I told her that the food was old and disgusting but i was shocked that she, the manager had actually served me. She had tried to blame an employee. Well, he handed me the food. Your the manager, it's your responsibility! I could gt food poisoning from thatshit.
    she would not give me my money back, but she did give me 2 pizza's instead of one. What the fuck am I gunna do with 2 pizzas? I can only eat one of them! What i really wanted was fresh food the first time around.

    What irks the fuck out of me is that at Mc Donalds, they charge .24 cents for extra condiments. However...they only charge half the time. So if I have my quarter ready, they won't ask for it, but if I dont have it out, they will always ask for it and wait for me to dig around for the fuckign quarter. And they never give me my change back! Damn right I want my penny. Fuckers charge .24 cents for a damn honey mustard, I want my penny in change. Burger king gives free condiments. and they taste better.

    I wasn't pissed about this but I thought it was funny.

    My girlfriend and I went to a McDonalds last week, we each wanted a soda and then 1 water to share. I wanted Coke, then changed my mind and ordered a Sprite instead. The girl at the window got confused and handed us 3 waters, a coke, a sprite, and 2 orange sodas. We only got charged for what we actually ordered, so we didn't say anything, but I have no idea how it happened. Every gap we could find was stuffed with a drink because we didn't have any cupholders.

    That said, I remember working for $5.15 an hour and not giving a shit about customer service.

    mcdonald's honey mustard is the shit.

    whenever I go anywhere I am especially nice to all employees that handle my food because they can do w.e they want with my food and I dont want to give them reason to fuck w. it.

    altho, yesterday I went to taco bell... ordered fruit punch and the guy gives me a pepsi. so I try to be nice about it when I to correct the mistake but the kid immediately sucks his teeth and is very rude about changing the drinks. its not my fault he has selective hearing, I clearly said fruit punch!
    ughhh. disgruntled employees.

    You do realize that if we payed fast food workers better wages it would be reflected in the prices we pay for the food there, which sort of detracts from the appeal of fast food. And no, I don't think it would improve service one bit. Some under 21 folks have good work ethic who will go on to better things and some are just lazy and entitlement oriented.

    I don't expect miracle work out of fast food service, but simple competence would be nice.

    My favorite line, after I get my food; "It's not my fault your work here."

    In Oregon minimum wage is $7.95, so I'd like to think we have a little bit higher notch of customer service at the fast food places.

    In Florida it was AWFUL. I hated going to fast food restaurants, gas stations, Wal-Mart, everybody was just rude.

    I think that that's kind of mean. I mean, sometimes people just have shitty jobs. They don't need customers rubbing it in. That's not the same level as a guy telling a dancer she wants her boobs groped, but do you really want to actively make someone's day worse?

    That being said, in Oregon -- just go to Burgerville. Never had particularly bad service there, and tasty milkshakes too.

    When I worked at Arby's in high school, we were chronically understaffed, harassed, and belittled. The drive-through window was staffed by ONE person, even when there was a long line of cars. That meant trying to take orders, collect money, hand out food, put fried foods down in the frier, pull them up when the buzzer dinged, put all the food in bags with the appropriate condiments, get drinks together, all by myself. Without one of those headset things, so we had to stand at the window and press the speaker button to take orders.

    Sometimes you have to realize that there might be more going on behind the scenes of the restaurant than you're aware of.

    One of the worst things that happened to me was when a lady screamed at me, "what are you, fucking stupid? This is the easiest job in the world and you can't even get it right!

    That sucked.

    Yeah, I know how it is...I worked at Burger King in HS and while I never got yelled at, I know of some ppl who did...and usually its not the persons fault who gives the order out...whoever is in the kitchen is the one who makes the order and the person who is at the window usually gets the blame for the kitchen persons fuck up.

    If your fries being in the bag upside down is the worst that can happen to you, and you have to vent about that. it must be nice to have your ivory tower life princess.

    working fast food isn't anyone's dream job, some people do it out of need. they need that job to take care of their family and the person serving you your fries might be better educated than you and laid off from the job they had because of the economy.

    yeah, the job sucks, and no, I wouldn't care if I worked there, but at least they are willing to work and not suck up welfare.

    I know how you feel ( tired, starving, and desperate for somewhat edible results ) .... but .... yep .... people can't be expected to put in real effort for what they are paid.

    The best advice I can give .... just check your order before driving off and be kind .

    I worked a fast food job when I was 15 ( small hamburger place just taking orders and handing out food ) . It was pretty awful.

    People in food and travel industries just see the most awful exhibitions of human behavior I swear ( dealing with hungry and tired people who would otherwise probably be decent to be around ).

    Yeah, I'm with the "what do you expect" camp. You get paid the same whether you do a good job or not. Even for more money, I mean if you knew going into work that you were going to make $200 that night, nothing more nothing less no matter what you would probably do your job pretty differently.

    And like lilylove said, it's not THAT easy. I mean, anyone could do it but that doesn't mean it's always a fun and games cakewalk.

    It's hard to work in fast food/convenience stores. I worked at a gas station/fast food kind of place after high school. People would take out their anger from the day at me and in turn, it made me a very nasty person at work. The job was also repetitive and didn't really stimulate my my mind so I would just do my job and not really think of what exactly I was doing. Not to mention stressful because we would be busy and everyone wanted out real quick and we are being yelled at by customers for being slow - but speeding things up meant more mistakes are made.

    But that being said, it is really annoying when food orders are wrong but I remember to always try to check the bags before I leave.

    ^^^

    Lol I just had chicken nuggets for dinner....

    Okay, again, I really don't expect fast food to be stellar. honestly when I eat it I always stand behind the counter and watch them make my food to so I know what I'm getting. If you have something wrong, just be polite. I honestly don't expect anybody to jump up and down and do a crazy good job for what they get paid. They're not like bad people because they have a shitty job...I've had shitty jobs...sometimes you need a job, any job.

    Also, people are different. If everybody was a doctor or lawyer we wouldn't have people to do the other jobs we need done. It doesn't mean they aren't important...I mean, for example, imagine if all the garbage men stopped....that would sure suck!! Even jobs that seem menial are important really.

    On top of that, next time you go to McDonalds look and see how those people get treated. They take more shit than we do at work.
