Don't you hate when you order food at a drive through and find it is missing when you sit to eat.

Kevin Spacey, in "American Beauty", is recapturing his youth by working in a fast food restaurant drive thru and his wife and her lover drives up to get their order. They have a quizzical look as to whether the food is safe to eat or not.

I believe more than a few of fast food workers are angry, frustrated and resentful. No telling what they do to your food. (What special condiments are added)?

I'm always paranoid of that. I have a friend that sends back food all of the time at restaurants. I asked him if he was afraid that something may be done to his food that he would not like. He said he just doesn't want to know about it.

Where do I start? The local McDonald's no longer exist to me. They screwed up my order three times in a row and 5 out of 6 so I do not go there anymore.
The last time was the best, after church I ordered a number 1 and a number 4 and was standing waiting when the guy who ordered behind me looked at his receipt and noticed that it was not what he ordered. They had changed the numbers of the meals and even had a big sign that stated " Look the numbers have changed" but did not change the numbers in the cash register. So you order a 4 and would get the old number 4. I looked at my receipt and sure enough I got something different that what I ordered a 2 (old number 1) and an 8 ( old number 4). Now I will eat anything but my girlfriend will not and will make a big stink if she does not get what she ordered. So the guy behind me points it out to the counter person, I added that mine was wrong also and they call over the manager who make the all time comment " OK we will fix it THIS TIME" I am thinking no if you screw up you will fix it EVERYTIME not just THIS time. Then I thought no, there will not be a everytime because I will never go back to that McDonald's again. Odd thing is that this was at 9:30 how could they have not had this problem solved by then.

Also have had no meat Big Mac, no meat Sub at Arby's, and completely wrong order at Wendy's. I am sure paying they $15/hour will fix all these.

You mean at some BK's you had to actually pay for a beverage to accompany your "scored" Whoppers?
Oh the humanity!!


To each his own RoadTrip, but IMO you're one cheap conniving bastard.

Drive through humor.

HEY, I do resemble that remark, but you left out "shameless". I prefer to think of it as "social engineering".

If you don't ask for "comps" you, most likely, will never get comps.

But, if you do ask, you may be pleasantly surprised at the result.

I've walked into casino's for the first time, signed up for a players club card, and immediately asked a host or pit boss for a comp meal, "before I start playing, since I'm hungry from my travels to visit your casino". Usually, I'll sit at a table game, and begin to buy in for a significant amount, $500 - $1000. And ask before playing a single hand or placing a wager. After I get a comp, I'll say something like "I guess I should take these with me" and pick up my chips. Or, if denied, than I'll use that as an excuse to not play. ::: shrug :::

And, I have gotten them on more than one occasion.

I'm getting sick of all of the places that want you take their survey, with all the info at the bottom of the receipt. I don't need to know about it every single time I visit the store, just give me my food and let me be on my way.

Kroger is like that you buy three items and the receipt is 2 and a half feet long because of ad for their credit card.
