Ataru Menchi's Journal
Mainly just random things that go on in this guy's everyday life.....well....at least every time I get a chance to write.
My rants volume 1
Well, here I go with my first ranting of the journal. If you've ever worked in a fast food restaurant, this is for you. I definetly hate when customers decide to change their minds while at the drive-thru window. First off, why couldn't you make up your friggin mind when you placed the order. Now I've gotta alert everyone that it's a void and pass it through. I've come out short because I missed a few voids. What really gets to me are those that ask the all too familiar question, "How much does your $1 burger costs?" Now that's what you call brain dead. I deal with such difficult customers everytime I work. I get the ones who complain about everything. They just get up all angry because one thing didn't go their way. Have a good cry and get over it. The world isn't going to end because someone didn't get extra this or no that. The only thing I can understand is when you're alergic to something. I had a lady who was alergic to chicken and they almost gave her a baccon cheddar ranch tendercrisp sandwich. If I hadn't repreated the order, I could have had a friggin homicide on my hands. What I really hate are those people who can't seem to live without smoking in their car. Have some damn respect for employees and put out your damn cigarette or cigar. I don't need someone's lung cancer-causing smoke to enter my own lungs. I have problems breathing around cigarette smoke as it is, now you're trying to kill me? Bottom line, put the friggin thing out, or don't come through drive-thru. Until next time, I leave you with your thoughts.

well I dont know about everyone else but I have to have my hamburger plain, and if I dont get it plain after I told the "person" that its gotta be plain with nothing on it just meat and bun and they give me this thing with ketchup pickles and melted cheese then i get mad cause I made it clear I didn;t want anything on it and if I have ketchup and I can taste it really well I will throw up, so yea maybe you should change your rant to be like you can understand if you throw up if you have something on your burger ^_^ xp

Well, I do understand the plain and dry aspect. I've had several people ask for just that. Just the cheese, meat, and bun or just meat and bun. I can understand if you have allergies or just don't like too many toppings on your burger. I just hate the little things. They say no lettus, and they could just as easily remove it instead of complaining about it. All they want is another free burger. We've had customers complain over the phone about these things just to get a free burger. Again, I do understand the importance of order accuracy (which is why I personally tell the cooks about anything special they must do or double check the order for accuracy). I'm all about customer service and satisfaction, so I will always go out of my way to do it. I had a lady not too long ago asking for the entire set of toddler toys. I went back there and made sure we had them. The cubes we were getting in with the Activision promo had one bag of all four toys for toddlers, so I knew we had to have had one complete set. I went above and beyond to help out that customer.

Well XxQuartzxX his rant was not about getting the orders wrong, it is about people changing their minds. If you know what you want then it is ok. With alot of things happening sometimes the orders to get a little mixed up but you always have to double check your food, it is common sense. It is just a lot, I always check and if they are nice I am nice about it too, but if I get a jerk then I get money back and leave. 3nodding
