Dude, if I pay $16 USD per person for food and get horrible service, then fuck them. No way my meal was worth $16 to begin with. I'm not there to cover their horrible business practices.

I usually tip 20%, but when we had to wait forever, they got both our drink orders wrong, messed up my food order and sat us next to a crying baby, then no, I didn't tip. Dick.

Also, fast food restaurants serve everything in paper/cardboard containers and wrappers, but only have trash cans there for when you're done. Why not recycle bins?

Do you get a paycheck that you agreed to? Are you actively trying to advance yourself to get bigger paychecks? No? Sounds like you are content with your station in life. Not my fault buddy. Don't expect others to over-compensate you for your chosen ****ty lot in life.

Pedals????

Leave the math to the grownups son.

At the doctors the other day my BP was 181/106. Two days back on the meds and it was 126/82.

You can do it Frowny.

****ting on lower class food service workers sure is classy.

I'm sure you thought you accounted for every reason you were wronged, but sometimes workers are understaffed for whatever reason which increases confusion by like 500%, sometimes customers think they've ordered something correctly but are in fact morons who confuse the hell out of us by just saying dumb ****, and how the **** are they supposed to account for a crying baby? They seat by section according to each waiter. **** happens. Don't be a whiny bitch.

What does that have to do with us? Take it up with the company. We have no control over what they do.

So you're a Republican. Minimum wage slaves are worth what the company says they're worth and if they don't like it they can get another job. And if they want better pay then they should form a union and then get fired for having the temerity to demand being treated like human beings.

Bruh, you don't tip because you value the human beings, you tip because you appreciate the opportunity to feel like you have servants to lord over. You are a nouveau aristocrat yuppie.

Like I said, if you don't value the people serving you then get the **** out. We shouldn't be expected to slave for entitled twats whose children have hair they bought out of a cheap porno.

Yeah **** gets confused at times. I assume this usually happens to you when we're busy? We're going to prioritize drive-thru because we're being timed and that drive-thru time is basically the most important thing in our work lives. In-store customers absolutely get ignored at times when we're busy and our drive-thru time is going up because we simply have to treat you secondary. At times we have little option but to not make eye contact because we have no time to deal with you as human beings.

And then there are five million tickets flying around and one or two will get misplaced and then we don't even know who even needs an order, and the people making the food have so many orders on our screen that we don't bother looking at it because it's information overload, and by that time everyone is on edge because tiny things that go wrong snowball and teamwork becomes isolated worlds where the drive-thru people are pissed at the sandwich makers for not making food quickly enough and the front counter people for not bagging their food; the people in the back are pissed because they're running out of things while trying to also account for fifty orders at once and the people up front are too harried to communicate properly; and the front people are pissed because they've got customers glaring at them for waiting for five minutes because their orders are being sidelined to keep drive-thru time down.

It's a garbage job that pleases nobody and pisses off everybody and we have just enough people to actually do the job but not enough to be efficient at peak times.

But hey Chula makes amplifiers by exploiting cheap Chinese labor so let's suck his dick. Oh wait, he used to. Then they made him suck.
