Things fast food places do that make you mad. Which one makes the most mistakes?

[KSigkid]

I don't eat a whole lot of fast food, because law school has done enough damage to my body. But, the Dunkin Donuts near my house is pretty special. There's always a guy who works mornings who stands in the middle and talks to the rest of his co-workers while they're trying to fill orders. I've never seen him do any work - he just starts talking randomly about stuff and waits for someone to chime in.

Ah, Dunkin's! There's a reason that the coffee is cheaper there than at Starbucks.

My standard order is a medium iced Latte Lite. Latte Lite is their name for it, not mine. It's latte with skim milk and Splenda.

One would think that using the Dunkin' established product name would ensure a standard result. Noooo! Since this is New England and "coffee light" means lots of cream, often a cup of very light beige is handed to me through my car window. That's definitely not skim milk.

If the closest Starbucks had a drive through, I'd be there all the time!

The "white sauce" is sour cream.

Well, OF COURSE I haven't paid, you weren't there!

But yeah, this is just one example of the wonderfully idiotic kind of things that McDonalds has pulled.

That same thing happened to me at KFC!!! I waited like 5 minutes at the payment window and the girl never showed so I went to the 2nd window and she freaked out. She yelled at me about how i'm suppose to wait and the 1st window until she comes yada yada yada, and how she was going to tell the manager that I tried to avoid paying. So I told her that she could go ahead and tell the manager, and I'll tell my uncle (who's the supervisor of all the KFCs in the city) and see who gets in trouble more--her or me.

Really? I do agree that the southern chicken isn't very good, although I had the sandwich not the biscuit, but I don't think Chick-Fil-A is good either.

For some reason, I think that's one of the funniest things I've ever read on this site...I think the term is "deadpan."

Ditto. I wanted to say it so badly. I'm glad epchick said it.

LOL, agree. And I can just see the confused Taco Bell workers: "well of course we'll leave the white sauce off -- we never put any on to start with."

I still say KK is evil. I can't eat a donut that's too warm. But I can't get enough of the DD donuts. The chocolate frosted ones are my favorite

I've had more proplems with Wendy's than any other fast food restaurant. For a place that custom makes each and every order, it's amazing how often they get it wrong.

A few years ago, Mr. KR and were driving on I-95 and we stopped at a Wendy's drive through and got something to eat. When I opened up my chicken sandwich, I saw that it had mayonaise on it and I detest mayonaise on my chicken sandwich. So, instead of turning around and going back, we pulled into the next Wendy's we saw. I marched in, told them that their drive thru people had made a mistake, and got a new sandwich

I love the one in Providence. They make great hot chocolate and the line in the morning is usually pretty short (if there is a line) not like the long lines @ DD! Yum!

Wendy's:

My then roommate and I through drive through and I order my sandwich without lettuce. We get our food and then pull over in the parking lot to eat (we were both hungry but didn't want to go inside.) I check my sandwich, it has lettuce. I go inside now and talk to the manager. He tells them to make it without lettuce. I open it up in front of him...yup, there was lettuce. He then went and made it for me.

Taco Bell:

Always running out of chicken.

There's a bunch of locations in Connecticut - I don't think I've ever stopped at one, but there are quite a few in the area.
