Stories From A Fast Food Dude
Forums › General Discussion › Stories From A Fast Food Dude-
You got it Benny.
Ok so one night, we were really busy in drive thru. Car after car after car. For hours. The dining room was pretty slow, so I told the employee that was working in the dining room to get it cleaned up.
Now, before I go any further, I need to explain this girl. She wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, and she was always high on something. Even at work. Problem was, we could never prove it, so there was nothing we could do. Ok, anyway...
So she's out cleaning dining room, and we are busy in drive thru. She comes up to me and says "Someone stole a booth"
I'm like, wtf? How do you NOT notice that shit? Well I go out there, and sure enough, someone stole a seat cushion.
Btw, I have pics if you wanna see 😉

I was almost fired once for sending a platter full of uncovered cinamin and sugar through the oven at pizza hut

I'm guilty of this one😵🙋
Went up to a Chick-Fil-A(They serve chicken and their restaurants are based on cows) and asked for a hamburger. -
I worked at Taco Bell, at 12:00pm somebody walked up to the door, stood in front of the store times sign, knocked on the door and asked "Are you open?"

I work at McDonald's and get get that a lot with drinks like a tea and an orange hi-c. WtfA customer came through the drive thru and ordered 2 combos, with which came 2 drinks. They ordered a powerade(blue) and a fruit punch(red). I handed the customer their food, followed by their drinks. She looks at the drinks, and asks me, "which ones which?"

That made me laugh.Lady orders a single cheeseburger. About 15 minutes later she calls the store
Customer-"May I speak to a manager?"
Me-"Speaking"
Customer-"I came through earlier and got a single cheeseburger, but there are cucumbers on it. I said I didn't want cucumbers.
Me-"I'm sorry ma'am, but we don't have cucumbers here."
Customer-"Yes you do. They are on my single."
Me-"We do not have cucumbers here. Did you possibly mean pickles?"
Customer-"NO, CUCUMBERS! When I say cucumbers, I mean CUCUMBERS! Idiot!....She hangs up

Just a few short ones before calling it a day. I'll post some longer ones tomorrow evening.
Common, small mistakes:
1) "Can I get a happy meal please?" THIS ISN'T MCDONALD'S!!!!!
2) "Can I have a McNugget?" Read 1
3) "I want a 10 piece nugget, fries and a drink." So you want the combo? "No! I just want the nuggets, fries, and the drink!"
4) Orders nuggets at the speaker. Any dipping sauce? No thanks. Get to window, can I get sauce please? 😡😡😡
5) "Small, Medium, or Large?" "Um, regular." REGULAR ISN'T A SIZE!!!!!I'll post some more tomorrow, some being a bit longer, and hopefully as funny or funnier than these

Lol I drove thru McDonald's once and ordered a large smarties blizzard. Haha after she stopped laughing and said wrong restaurant I had a brain fart and forgot where I was and what they served. So I had to ask what kind of ice cream treats they had. Went up to pay and we both busy out laughing. I felt like such an idiot. But it was a good laugh.Just a few short ones before calling it a day. I'll post some longer ones tomorrow evening.

Ok, so just a few nights ago, the dining room was about to close, it was about 15 mins until 10pm, and my dinong room closer had just finished cleaning the bathrooms. I was making sandwiches, and drive thru was slammed busy. So I'm rushing to bust out drive thru. A late 40s, early 50s couple come in the dining room and order some food, including a potato. I had just sold my last potato to the drive thru, and it takes about an hour for potatoes to cook, and we had just thrown more in the oven. So anyway, my dining room person tells the husband we are out of potatoes

And this guy is irate. He is literally yelling at me "Why you outta potatoes? Why? Why? Why?" we'll I'm busy busting out drive thru, so I drown out that noise. My dining room person can handle him.
Fast forward 15 minutes. Dining room is closed, my dining room person is going to clean the bathrooms. She cleans the women's, no problem. She goes I to the men's room, and literally runs back out, gagging. I ask her what's wrong, she tells me there is a big pile of shit on the floor. Yes. I just said there was a big pile of 💩 on the floor. Except it wasn't smiling. It was disgusting. Only 1 dude was in the restroom since she cleaner it last. Potato dude. A grown man SHIT IN THE FLOOR, because we didn't have a POTATO!!!!!

One thing that REALLY bothers me, is when a customer comes to the speaker, and tells me to hold on, and will literally sit there for 600 seconds (speed of service is measured in seconds)
I mean, that's like coming to my home, knocking on my door, me opening the door, and you asking ME what I want.
Moral of the story, don't pull to the speaker until you're ready to order :)

We have this regular who comes in ALL the time. Been coming here since I started 6 years ago. He always gets the same thing, a double cheeseburger combo, plain, with 2 pieces of cheese on top, large with a Diet coke. Same order. At least 3 times a week. We call him Loretta Lynn, because his car is decked out with LL stickers. If you approach him just to ask how he's doing, you'll end up hearing all kinds of crazy shit about LL. Anyway, this guy is a really nice guy. Real sweetheart, if you will. He's about 55 years old. Single. Just a lonely guy, but he's the nicest guy you will ever meet

Divert from LL dude real quick. We offer a 10% Senior Discount for our senior customers. However, we are not allowed to just give it out. Customers have to ask for it. You know why, because some people are overly sensitive, and will get offended if you just give it to them, etc etc.
Ok, back to LL. He comes in one day, and comes up to the counter and orders his usual. He has been coming in so often, he has his total memorized, he knows exactly how much it should cost. Well on this day, the front register person(dining room) figured they'd be nice and give him a senior discount.

He asks why his order total isn't same as it usually is, and the girl tells him that she gave him a senior discount. Well holy shit, little did we know, that was apparently the key to pandoras box. This dude flips his chips. He takes his tray of food, literally throws it across the dining room, and he's going on about how he's "not a ducking old senior citizen" and how we treated him so terribly. He keeps this up for a solid 5 minutes. I swear this was the longest 5 minutes of my life. I was scared shitless. I was afraid to even apologize. Well, he eventually left, didn't come back for a solid 5 months, but now he's back. And we make sure to NEVER give him a discount of ANY kind

Lesson of the night 2:
Senior citizens don't like to save change, it's freaking heavy dontcha know -
Some of you may remember, Wendy's used to have chicken strips. And they were GOOD. well, they were expensive to buy and did not sell good enough, so about 4 months after I started working there(I started in 2006) we stopped selling them.
To this day, every once in a while we get a customer who tries to order chicken strips. Now, I know people don't like keep up with our menus, but 6 years? Seriously? You haven't noticed for 6 YEARS that we don't have chicken strips?

Actually, you'd be surprised at how many people flip the fuck out if they DON'T get it. It's dumb. They are older and smaller, so they get like a potato, a small hamburger, and a water. Total is around $2. 10% of $2? It's like 8 cents or some shit. They literally yell about that 8 cents broLesson of the night 2:
