What's Your Story?

Nikki25,

I think you know the words I deleted from your post. If you have any questions, e-mail me.

Total Elegance, I wish I did what you did in my story as described below:

Picture it, McDonalds, 1999 *I couldn't resist*

I placed an order for my food, and paid my money. I gave her some change with my payment so that I could get my change back in whole dollars, not coins. She said, "Too late". I asked then if she could give me a dollar bill for a dollar in change. She said "I can't do that". I then said, "I thought the customer was always right." She said som smart@$$ remark and then started to use profanity at me. Seeing that this was an escalating into a shouting match, I shouted, "I WANT A REFUND!" She said some other smart@$$ remark, I said again, "I want a refund! Just give me my money, please!" This lady was still talkin' mess. I gave her the talk-to-the-hand gesture and said, "Feed the hand" (read: give me my money). When I got my $, she was still talking mess. I said whateva, ok, bye-bye *blew her a kiss to aggravate her* and left. I never went back to that McDonalds again.

Is it me, or is fast food becoming SLOW FOOD!
I mean, there is a Mickey Ds right across the street from my grad school and they are slower than a constipated mule. On Saturday mornings, the line looks like 1st of the month at the welfare office. I hate going there. I have nothing against young folx trying to make some $, but it seems that all the fast food joints are staffed by ignant teenagers who are there solely to make a buck. And they know that fast food help is hard to come by, so they knowingly do the minimum work and drag their [butts] b/c they are needed more than they need their jobs.

Am I on track or out in left field?

Shalom Everybody~

ROTF! ROTFL! ROTFLMHO!!!

See now, you all remember I swore off to eating at Fast Foods after viewing those pics from the Black Planet site---but now you all have really made me stick to my commitment of not going to Fast Food Joints (again, sorry Dave)!

Total Elegance and Rain Man, my mom would have only one comment for you two..."Leave them craza folks alone"!

Shalom~

I am so mad that I can just spit. The boys and I decided to have pizza today. I called the Pizza Hut nearest to me. They said that they were out of stuffed crust. I had to go across town (20 minutes) just to get stuffed crust. Before I left, I called to place my order. I simply wanted one pepperoni and one itallian sausage. When I got there, I had to wait over 40 minutes. Finally, the young girl said, "Miss, your pizza is ready, but he forgot to make itallian sausage." I was on fire!!!!!

In the Austin Powers sequel, Dr. Evil says rig**damndiculous. It's not right, but in the context it was said, I have to admit it was funny for a split second.

[AKA2D '91]

Where do you all live?

I mean, I ain't ever had an incident like you all speak of. I visit fast food joints on a REGULAR basis...

The only thing close is that there is a wait on pizza deliveries like 1.5 hours, but that's it!

My Mickey D's incident happened around my Aunt's house in Hollis, Queens.

I want to know where those Taco Bell's are that run out of beef That's "ridurndiculous"

HAPPY EASTER to everyone!!!!
I have been a silent "observer" for a while but I just had to post on this one.

One day while trying to place an order at Burger King, there was a sign on the window that read (exactly like this)

"Closed, we are out of meet"

Some of the workers were still there and we tried to let them know that they needed to correct the sign(after we had our laugh)....but of course you know the type of "cousins" we were dealing with...they were yelling at us "Can't you read the sign, we're closed" You can never try and help our "kin folks" out without the drama, it sometimes better to keep your mouth closed.

LOL

We have a restaurant here by the name of Jack Pirtle's. It's a shack but dang they sell some good chicken. Every week they have a special. Well instead of having a real sign advertising the specials, they use a sheet of white paper and a black magic marker The sign read:

2 Chilli dogs & freis $1.49 +tax

I pointed and laughed then told the girl (she went to highschool with me) the sign was spelled wrong, then I told her to spell fries. She told me girl you know what the hell it is lol.

I have a theory about the shake machine @ McDonald's. They're not truly out of ice cream nor is the machine really broken. It's just that the ONE PERSON who knows how to put the machine back together (it has to be taken apart at night to be cleaned) is off that day.
ain't B]

I want to go ahead and prove this theory about the shake machine. See the guy at our store who fixes most of the ice cream and shakes quit, and I was the only person he taught how to operate the machine. The other person who was suppose to learn how to work the machine couldn't get it right. Well, I only worked on Fri.-Sun. becaue I was a minor at the time.

Within a week of the guy quiting, I was training three people (including the crew leader) how to work the machine.

So just to think, I must apologize to all those people who wanted ice cream and shakes, but I was getting an education from Mon.-Thru. so I think I have a valid exuse.

So the theory is true, it's true

Not trying to be funny but why does someone need to be TRAINED to use the shake machine?

OK I don't know where you people live. The only thing I have experienced is that really late at night ( abt 2 am ) KFC will be out of honey bbq wings Considering that they close at 3 am I can dig that. Perhaps it's b/c I live in the GHETTO. I'm talking across the street from some very mean projects GHETTO I'm talking someone had a argument with the landlord then at 5pm he ends up shot in the parking lot GHETTO So the people in the fast food restaurants don't even give us neighborhood folks attitude. It is quite possible that they may catch a serious beat down. I don't know about you but $5.50 an hour is not worth ya a$$ on a platter! Ya heard!
