ohhh so that's the story. seen the video but didn't know it was over some nuggets. Working at McDonald's is probably one of the funniest jobs at times. Yet sometimes the fun turns to frustration. People like her come all the time asking for stuff not on the menu at the time, and when you say for example "that item is on the breakfast menu" they get mad because "it's 3:30am". we reply "ma'am, breakfast starts at 4:00am". what do they do? "can i have a *insert name of same breakfast item*?"

Then there are those that want their food fresh from the grease, but when you tell them to park and you'll bring it outside to them, the hold up the line refusing to pull to the side, because they think just because it's called "fast food" it's supposed to be ready as soon as they order it, even though they want it fresh from the grease. They complain about food not being fresh enough or hot enough and when you tell them to pull up because they don't want the not so fresh fries or whatever that just came out of the grease 5 minutes ago, they get childish and hold up the flow of business.

It really needs to be labeled "faster-than-it-would-take-your-lazy-butt-to-grill-it-food". Been wanting to sort of vent about this since yesterday. Thanks for video.

chicken nuggets are the only thing I eat from McDs. Everything else is like a pile of poo to me. I'd be mad if McD was the only spot to get food.

on a side note. anyone whos ever worked at mickey D's should chime in. myself included.

here i go. mickey ds was pretty fun at where i worked. in a pretty upscale neighborhood. but every fast food restaurants has those crazyass bishez who come and ruin your day. one time this lady comes in and orders some chicken sandwiches from the dollar menu. when i bring it out to her, she asks if she could have them cut in half. and im like "lulwut? who the f*** gets their sandwiches cut in half? no fastfood places do that." and i tell her " we dont carry knives in our kitchen (policy for our chain of mickey d)" and she goes off on me like a drunk b**** on steroids. she almost got in a fight with my manager. lawl. besides that, the 6 month job wasnt that bad. my manager flips me off in front of the security camera, and i see my coworker sell weed to my assistant manager. and hundred dollar bills vanish from the drawers. all in all, pretty good experience, i mean the job sucked but it teaches you to not wanna work at that kinda level. you could call it motivation i guess.

I used to work at In N Out and we did that all the time. Hell, I've had parents ask for it to be cut into fourths for their children. We happily oblige. And you guys couldn't have knives? Lolwut? Not even those ceramic ones that don't cut skin?

Yeah. What kind of eating establishment doesn't have knives? lol. But I guess most of your stuff is premade so there's no use...

Even my ice cream place has knives.

We had knifes just for that, but it's wasn't nothing "official". But I see why most don't have them, since everything already comes done. No need.

But if I was that position and I saw it escalating. I would of just popped a few frozen nuggets in the box, and made her cook them sh*ts herself.

Well what crazspence says is the truth. the McD i work at also has no knives in the kitchen (franchise policy), but we have a utensil used to dice chicken. However, it is solely for the purpose of dicing chicken, so we also don't cut sandwiches in half. There is a pair of a dyke and a "regular looking" lesbian. whenever they come they order a ton of food, and then refuse to be pulled off to the side so their order can be completed without hindering other customers who didn't order a house load of food to be in and out of the drive thru. I'm so happy i do not work the window anymore. I love the customers who lie about not having sauce (for nuggets) in their bags, because they don't want to pay $0.38 for extra sauce. One of these days i'll call them a liar to their face, get in an argument with them, fight them in the parking lot, then quit. joking about the fighting, but that is how i will quit when the time comes.

Meh, never really cared about charging for the sauce. No tcoming out of my pocket, and for the kinda of profit they're are making I just saw that as greedy.
Unless you were being a douche. Then it'll be 50 cents for you.

Wow. McDonalds sucks more than I thought. You aren't allowed to cut sandwhiches? You actually ask customers to move out of the drive thru? You charge extra for more sauce? That's all ridiculous. Maybe that's why I stick to In N Out. They actually care about customer service.

even though its been quite a few years since ive worked there i still pass by it everyday. but to put up a defense, we dont cut anything because everything is processed already, if a customer wants to cut anything, we would glady provide plastic knives so that they can do it themselves. also, we ask the customer to drive to the end of the drive through, where there are 2 lanes, so that people who just want a single item can be on their way. i dont see the harm in asking a customer to drive 20 feet down the drive thru, its not like they have to come in to pick up their food, we still walk outside and deliver it to them. and i do feel charging for sauce is legitimate. althought we didnt charge 38 cents for one but we did charge 11 cents. and it was posted up on the wall. this was to deter away the ***holes who buy a 4 piece nugget for $1 and ask for every single f*** sauce we have to offer. pick one f***! but to those who actually order a meal or something we generally dont charge them anything for extra. from a employee's POV, if your franchise gave away free sauce youre just losing money.

yes micky d's sucks, but it sure doesn't help when customer's attitudes suck. It does nothing for you, by getting mad at us little folks in the restaurant. how about you go find the owner of the chain and complain to him, or use your brains and call the corporate office number that is plastered on every window and door in easy to read black text on white paper. It's even laminated. This isn't directed to you guys on here, cause most of y'all don't even go near Micky D's. I'm just saying in general.

I just have a different perspective of customer service in a fast food joint cause I worked at one that is very hard-core on giving awesome customer service. I see things that other places do different and think it's weird, like charging for sauce. We gave out as many as the customer wants for free. I just have a different view point is all.

And yea Dre, I don't generally do McDonalds. I don't really do fast food very often. Only very rarely.
