On my way home haven't eaten anything since like 8 this morning so I say fuck it and pull into the BK drivethru.
I try to order a bbq bacon whopper, before I even get the words out of my mouth this lady just cuts me off and says "We don't have that!" ".......okay, you don't serve bacon and cheese whoppers anymore?" "We can do a bacon and cheese whopper" ".........can you add bbq sauce to it?" *awkward pause* "I can give you some packets of bbq sauce" *I drive off* Now i have a fresh reminder of why I really don't ever go to those shit holes anymore. Gross food I can deal with. Gross food and shitty attitude from the biggest losers in society? yeah, no thanks

Burger King is the bottom of the barrel of fast food. I wouldn't generalize all fast food workers because whenever I go to lunch at an Einstein's or a Port of Subs or even Taco Bell I have great experiences. But Burger King is always a bad experience. Nope, that's KFC/Taco Bell, attitudes and slow |

Gee, I wonder why these people you're calling society's biggest losers are giving you attitude Probably cause their life sucks and their shitty attitude is all but cementing them in their shitty pointless existence? I served tables for years, I'm the easiest and most laid back customer you're gonna come across. But if you're gonna give me attitude over nothing you can go fuck yourself.

Yup one time I had a hungover and ordered a big Mac meal with a large coke (I really just wanted the coke) I get the order it's fucking ice tea.
I make another order for a Jr chicken and another coke, I get it and it's a diet coke... I fucking flipped (I was already grouchy from the hangover) I sent a big complaint to the place and never ordered from there again. Idiots.

At worst they're hilariously aware of how everyone that eats there past a certain time is high as hell.

fast food is hit or miss for me...sometimes they are useless wastes of space and sometimes the workers actually give a fuck and do a good job. the shitty ones that have bad attitudes should be fired tho

How was their attitude shorty? You ordered something that wasn’t on the menu then demanded they make it for you regardless. You seriously can’t add your own bbq sauce to a burger? Does mommy have to cut it into pieces for you too? https://www.bk.com/menu-item/bbq-bacon-whopper-sandwich She was being a bitch, and she was wrong. pretty unlikable combination. And yeah I can put it on my own burger, but I don't fucking work there. This a restaurant, I buy food, you make the food, I eat the food. That's how this works genius. It's not like I was asking for tacos or some outlandish shit.

Probably cause their life sucks and their s***ty attitude is all but cementing them in their s***ty pointless existence? Half the reason their lives suck is that they work under shitty conditions for sub-living wages. The other half? Entitled and condescending customers such as yourself. If you don't like fast food workers' attitudes, you can choose not to be part of the problem.

The Burger King right next to where I live is great. Just finished up my lunch from there, actually. They were very pleasant at the drive-thru, were happy to customize my sandwich the way I wanted it, and even cooked my fish to order to ensure it was fresh and tasty. It was so flaky, it practically melted in my mouth. Better than any Filet-O-Fish I've had from McDonalds, although that's a good one too.

Fast food workers aren't so bad. You just had a shit experience. It happens. A shit experience that was partly brought on by his own attitude. Clearly went in with a bias against fast food, used the first interaction to justify those biases and then cried about having to put his own condiments on.

Also, that seems odd they don't have BBQ sauce anywhere but in packets. I was just looking at their menu, and they have several burgers (including a Whopper) that come with BBQ sauce on it. Somebody didn't know what the fuck they were doing, or maybe you went to a small BK with a very watered-down menu.

so you asked for a menu item they dont have and they said they didn't have it. and then you asked for a condiment and they said what they could do for you.

I know what TC means. I’ve worked at McDonalds and in restaurants. I’ve never acted like some of these moody people.
They cut you off mid order with their monotone, deflated voices. “What size?” Maybe if you’d let me finish, I’d tell you you impatient, bitch. I get it. I’ve had to man two drive thru lanes while taking money for the first window. I get how hectic things can be. I get how things can be slow without it even being your fault. But get out of your funk.

fenderbender321 posted...Burger King I've had bad fish from BK before, trust me. But it was at a different location. I swear they would sometimes sell me fish sandwiches that had been sitting there for 3+ hours. It didn't kill me and it wasn't rotten, but the texture and flavor was definitely sub-par. This one I go to now always cooks fish to order. I've never had a bad meal from them, and they've never fucked up my order. Location matters. BK should do a better job of making sure independent franchise owners are doing a better job so that their reputation doesn't get tarnished. On the plus side, because so many people have had bad experiences at BK, the great one that's right by my place rarely has any cars at the drive-thru, so it's right in and right out every time.

so you asked for a menu item they dont have and they said they didn't have it. and then you asked for a condiment and they said what they could do for you. Bro they have burgers with bbq sauce on them, which means they have a squeeze bottle with sauce in it back in the kitchen. She either didn't want to do it cause she's lazy as shit or didn't want to admit that she's an idiot and couldn't put that together herself without me pointing it out to her. It's not about having to put the sauce on my burger, its about you being an unpleasant person to deal with. I'll take my business elsewhere. Fast food isn't even really that cheap anymore. Might as well spend a few more dollars and go to burger fi and get an awesome burger and not have to deal with lazy ass unmotivated people

I don't understand why a manager/owner of a BK would choose to not stock BBQ when that's a sauce that goes on several of the sandwiches on their menu, and something that is fairly commonly desired among fast food customers. What are they gaining from that? What went into that decision? There's just no explanation. Even if they had just run out, you can literally buy BBQ sauce at grocery stores and convenience stores. No excuse at all. Really bad management.

You're both missing the point, I don't give a rats ass about the god damn bbq sauce.
You're not going to talk to me like I'm a piece of shit and get my money, it's as simple as that. That goes for fast food and anything else. When I asked for the sauce all she had to say was "sure".

“What size?”
Maybe if you’d let me finish, I’d tell you you impatient, bitch.
After working in 2 different fast food places for a total of 6 years, most customers do not tell you a size until you ask. And for the places I worked at, the size was the first thing I had to push on the register to even begin the order, so once you move to the next item on your list, I'm interrupting you to ask what size. "What size?" was probably said more times than my standard greeting to customers.
But I agree with most people in this topic, dealing with annoying and stupid customers everyday will make anyone angry. But on the other side, if your nice to them then everything goes great, especially if your after the stupid customers. I was at a place over the weekend right before they closed. I ordered, they said they had to replace a certain part of it because they were closing and out of stock, and I said that's fine. The person behind me ordered the same thing, they told her, and she threw a fit and started insulting the people there for "closing early". I got an extra container of fries for being nice and she left angry.I am a juggler/prop manipulator/fire performer, here's my channel:

Again, I’ve worked these jobs. I know this. But fast food workers are terrible often times. I literally go through everything. I say “10 piece nugget meal, no sauce, with a Dr Pepper, no ice. Medium.”
SOMEHOW I get cut off before I even finish. Somehow my drink still has fucking ice in it. Somehow the dude at the second window just hands me my food without even saying shit. And somehow my nuggets are stale as fuck.
I’m the most patient, understanding customer you’ll find precisely because I’ve been in their shoes. But tone, and your lack of giving a shit gets old.

Yup, that's exactly why I cut you off. First thing I have to do is press the size, so EVERYTHING you say until you say the size has to go into my memory.

must be the tip worker entitlement he's carrying aroundAt this point I just laugh about customers who bitch after they make our jobs harder than they need to be. If a fast food worker asks you something, just answer it. Prompts make you put some orders in first. Can't count the number of times every fucking day where I ask a customer for their drink and they continue ordering other shit.
I won't lie I can be one of those attitude employees, only because I'm fucking jaded and hate certain customers. If you're cool, I'm cool. If you fucking suck at communicating, can't follow directions and feel entitled to anything you ask then fuck you I'll give you attitude. I do admit I don't like employees with that attitude from the first sentence but I've noticed its less attitude and more they're busy and can't commit enough emotion. You kinda go into autopilot especially during rushes or if you're short staffed.
Btw tc if I had to guess on the BBQ sauce, they ran out of the line sauce and at least where I work, employees cannot open condiment containers due to cross contamination rules (and managers can be pretty hardcore on that)lol at people trying to add context to tc's story that have no clue...people with shit customer service deserve to be treated like shit and fired. if you dont like working with the public you probably shouldn't get a job serving the public. most people (not all) are reasonable customers, some are assholes. that is life. if you treat reasonable customers like shit dont be surprised when everyone treats you like shit and gets you firedI am thinking about just walking into the river now that Megaupload is gone and condoms are in porn.-FubonisYea I'm really not understanding this "Ugh!

I'm sure many others are. as a result these employees have to ask and it probably just becomes part of their routine.

I’ll never understand the full-on complete handwaving of incredibly rude behavior or a display of minimal competence.@Solid_Snake07
i've worked in a fast food place once
some of the kitchen staff would add the bbq if told but many times the manager just wants the drive through line to move
getting the bbq over to the kitchen staff would take a minute, then the kitchen staff has to remove their gloves, wash their hands, and get new gloves after applying the bbq sauce since the bbq is typically handed to them by the other workers who can spread germs and so on
so a lot of time is wasted adding some sauce that the customer can really just add themselves and save everyone time
the managers would gladly deal with an unruly customer and the grunts are disposable and need to do what they're told so if the manager says "we cannot do that", the they cannot do that
the whole purpose is to make it FAST food so unnecessary steps like adding bbq sauce to a burger is avoided to speed up the process
if the bbq sauce is added to the order the line is slowed down by a lot and the other customers in line get mad because now they have to wait for YOUR food and they'll think like the people here that you're an idiot for not being able to add your own damn saucenever don't give upEpicMickeyDrew posted...@DarthDemented posted...

Interrupting people is extremely rude, period. If your computer system sucks, that’s another issue. At my job, I could put in solo items, and then add them as a meal after.A show of kindness may not do much help, but a show of cruelty may do much harm.DarthDemented posted...EpicMickeyDrew posted...

What's wrong with this? You're an adult right, I'm sure you can handle being alone for 5 minutes.
You never leave customers unattended. That opens you up to being fired for any vandalism or theft and also common sense should tell you "hey one of us should stay in here in case they need anything". This your first day being alive?
So just to be clear, you decided to get an entire night crew fired because you need to be babysat, like a child. The entitlement of some people never ceases to amaze me.Just how, pray tell, does your dick "take life"? How could a dick take a life? - XciteMeSolid Snake07 posted...TheVipaGTS posted...
How was their attitude shorty? You ordered something that wasn’t on the menu then demanded they make it for you regardless. You seriously can’t add your own bbq sauce to a burger? Does mommy have to cut it into pieces for you too?

She was being a bitch, and she was wrong. pretty unlikable combination.
And yeah I can put it on my own burger, but I don't fucking work there. This a restaurant, I buy food, you make the food, I eat the food. That's how this works genius. It's not like I was asking for tacos or some outlandish shit.
"Not all products shown are available in every restaurant."
You seem unreasonable. Put your own BBQ sauce on. Act like an adult.Hmm...Not for nothing, but I generally don't have issues with fast food drive ups that often. A couple times every now and then they'll forget something but I always remember to check before I drive off. That's the worst of it.
Except for Burger King. TC, believe me when I tell you all Burger Kings hire the dumbest people on the planet. Everytime I show up it's more for the entertainment factor of what they can pull off next than it is getting the actual food.yankees ws chizzampsDblade3k posted...Solid Snake07 posted...

the one i worked on lacked a certain sandwich completely yet it was still listed on the menu
sometimes customers would ask them and i'd explain that we didn't have it and i'd admit i didn't know why they don't change the menu but w/enever don't give upEpicMickeyDrew posted...DarthDemented posted...

The firing in both cases wasn't on us. We never said "fire their asses". Corporate did that themselves. Also common sense tells you NECER LEAVE CUSTOMERS UNATTENDED! How hard is that?boobies...Dblade3k posted...Solid Snake07 posted...

As someone who worked in the food industry previously, you have no idea what you're talking about. BBQ on a burger is a valid request and would be honored by any decent employee.yankees ws chizzampsEpicMickeyDrew posted...DarthDemented posted...

I was left alone for 25 mins one time at a drive through. Honked my horn twice. Manager came over and asked me if I ordered yet. I said I received my drink but my food hadn't come yet. They legit forgot to make it. The manager would have known if I didn't see him come in from the emergency exit where he was more than likely vaping or some shit.
This was a Burger King btw, one of my horror stories.yankees ws chizzampsSolid Snake07 posted...And yeah I can put it on my own burger, but I don't fucking work there

Solid Snake07 posted...It's not about having to put the sauce on my burger, its about you being an unpleasant person to deal with. I'll take my business elsewhere. Fast food isn't even really that cheap anymore. Might as well spend a few more dollars and go to burger fi and get an awesome burger and not have to deal with lazy ass unmotivated people

This. I’m confused. TC is the “easiest and most laid back customer ever” but will storm off in a huff if he has to get BBQ sauce on the side?..The other day before work I stopped by McDonald's to get lunch. I had plenty of time. It was one of those drive thrus where there's a wall blocking you in. I was in the drive thru for like 25 minutes. When I finally got to order I had to repeat it like 5 times (it was a simple order too). I finally get my food and it's not even the shit I ordered. To top it all off I was late to work because I was stuck there for so long.Hope rides aloneSolid Snake07 posted...
I try to order a bbq bacon whopper, before I even get the words out of my mouth this lady just cuts me off and says "We don't have that!"
".......okay, you don't serve bacon and cheese whoppers anymore?"
"We can do a bacon and cheese whopper"
".........can you add bbq sauce to it?"
*awkward pause*
"I can give you some packets of bbq sauce"
*I drive off*
I used to work in fast food, you were in the wrong here. When we say "we don't have it anymore" what we mean is that it isn't in the system. There's no way to ring you up for it, thus no way to charge you for it. And unless they put bbq sauce on a reasonable amount of other menu items, they also have no bbq sauce outside of the packets. It's not like ketchup and mayo that goes on damn near every sandwich, they don't gathe have bottles of condiments laying around to fulfill special requests like your order.Switch FC: SW-3917-4425-6106

I am, how is asking for a sauce to be added unreasonable our needy? I drove of cause she had an attitude. If I were an asshole I would have asked to see a manager or called corporate.
And I would bet good money that there wouldn't have been any sauce in that bag when I checked."People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time"

-Detective Rust Cohlecuttin_in_farm posted...You think interrupting someone just to go 2 seconds faster is an efficient decision?
2 seconds? Maybe your simple nugget order will take 2 seconds, but when people want to customize everything in their order, I'm not waiting for it to finish to then say "ok, now repeat the entire thing back to me because you didn't tell me the size first and I don't want to get it wrong". That's extremely rude to them and all the people waiting behind them because them continuing to talk is a waste of time for everyone, and that time can add minutes to the transaction if I let them continue. That's time where I can't input anything into the machine so I'll try and remember everything I can to make the recap shorter, and we will be doing a recap (which is a waste of time). When workers don't do the recap and try and just remember the entire thing, that's when your order might be wrong. Reminder that this entire issue can be solved by just moving a single word from your order from the end to the front. That's what good customers do, they learn how to order correctly so they can make the employees lives easier, then the employees are nice back and might even give you some extra stuff for free or added discounts, I've done it tons of times to nice customers. But if your a bad customer, getting mad at me because I missed the "no ice" while trying to memorize your $50 order you said in a weird way, making me delete stuff and adding them back and remembering all the customization involved in it, no free stuff, no discounts, full price, have a nice day.
And if the person can't even remember to tell me the size of an item that always has sizes no matter where they go (like soda), then they likely didn't give me all the information for everything in their order. So we're going to end up going through everything one by one so I can get all the information needed. In 6 years of working in fast food, no one ever complained about being interrupted for information because it makes everything go faster and easier, plus it reduces on mistakes a ton. I rarely ever had mistakes. And if someone was on the phone at my counter, I would gladly interrupt them to ask questions, and most of them apologized.I am a juggler/prop manipulator/fire performer, here's my channel:
