I work at a Dairy Queen, and I can confirm in fact that Blizzard (ala McFlurry) is more expensive to produce then a shake, so yeah... you totally got you moneys worth :3

As for employee incompetence, it's honestly about 30% the employee just making mistake, 10% the employee being a compete idiot (for example in the store I work, about 3 of the stores total 12 workers are just absolute bottom of the evolution chain.). 50% is customers not knowing what they want/being picky/ordering oddly/etc/etc/etc/etc. The last 10% is trainees.

Can't speak for all fast food, that's just what I see at the store I work in...

I'm sure this kid wouldn't be complaining about it.

Oh, you mean under-trained and under paid employees with no prior experience working aren't very good at their job? Just something that everyone has to deal with. Just take it back in and get your money back or your order fixed, No big deal.

Lol@your fat crybaby ass. I worked fast food before and it always amazed me how fucking weak hearted people can be over their food. This one guy tried to throw change in my face over not getting free syrup but was unsuccessful.

Toughen up.

1. The service industry is difficult. You're not the only customer in the restaurant, and your order isn't the only one they have to worry about. They have to do a ton of work all at once, so don't get pissy when your order is messed up, just politely point it out and they'll fix it.

2. Most people in the fast food industry that aren't just working to save for college aren't great with multitasking. It doesn't necessarily mean that they're stupid, but they aren't brain surgeons, and if their job for the rest of their life is working at a fast food restaurant, don't expect a brain surgeon.

3. That job fucking blows. It is not fun, it is not easy, and it is not rewarding. Do you expect them to put forth 110% into every, single, solitary order that they receive? The amount of work they do and the amount to money they receive is just depressing, so don't be shocked if they're not pouring their heart into your cheese burger.

4. It's a small mistake made, and it's made over an even smaller thing. Just calm the fuck down.

I concur good sir.

It's amazing how little consideration we take to fast food. You must understand at good times they have very high volume and must work under surprisingly high pressure. As well they get paid fuck all and work in shitty conditions.

You're paying for food, you should always get what you paid for, I don't disagree on that. If they fuck up, get it fixed, and possibly a refund depending on how bad the fuck up was. Don't just bitch about their incompetence, do something about it.

dude.... they are fast food employees

but ye, i also hate when people get to screw up and be incompetent in so simple tasks

i once ordered a large fry but i got a McBrewski i was SO fucing mad

It's their job to serve. They're getting payed for that.

Clearly you have never once in your life worked in the service industry. They rely on tips because their paychecks are so small.

For fuck's sake, how retarded do you have to be to fuck up at a fast food job? An easy job like this and these imbeciles still can't do it right. I hope these dipshits get fired in the near future (and never hired again).

Nobody deserves a fast-food job.

I'm aware of that but, morals aside, it's still optional.

I can't stand fast food anymore. These guys only care about money. They wouldn't mind if they dropped my order onto the ground and refused to remake it, let alone give me a refund.

Are you high

RB's implying that since no one realistically tips fast food employees, you shouldn't complain if the service isn't "up to your standards"

I don't want to sound racist, but it's typically because a great deal of fast food workers are foreigner who aren't very familiar with the new language.

People immigrate into country (often illegally), people are poor and have no educational record, people are desperate for money, people get minimum-wage job at Wendy's. Anyone who lives in 'Murica knows that there's a ton of poor Mexicans working at fast food joints, many of which barely speak English.

Where I live they seem to have the most problems with getting the drinks right. I usually ask for a Fanta or Sprite, but half of the times they'll just give me a Coke instead. It seems like they're on autopilot for that or something.

As long as it's little things like that I won't go complaining about it though. We all make mistakes at work and with repetitive jobs it's especially easy to lose your focus. Secondly, for a 2 bucks meal you really can't expect world class service, can you?

Yeah, I can imagine that.

Wat. No, I was not implying this at all.

Just don't give them a fucking hard order. You don't need to ask them to not put something you can easily pick off. I can see not getting onions or cheese because its impossible to get it off the burger but shit, just order something simple for christs sake.
