and it's windy, wet so I decided to stop at McDonalds, something I have very seldom
done.
I pull in the driveup...I ask for a grilled chicken Ceasar salad and an unsweetened med. tea.
and say, that will be all. "you would like a salad?", "you would like a Ceasar salad?" Yes please.
"grilled chicken?"....Yes please. "would you like Ceasar salad dressing with that?"...Yes please..." the med. tea is a dollar-fifty and today the large is a dollar"...I'll have the large thank you. "Ok, a large sweet tea"....No, a large unsweetened tea please....
"Ok, a grilled chicken Ceasar salad and a large unsweetened tea"...."would you like sugar for your tea?"....No thanks...."would you like anything else?"...No thanks.
 
I thought talking with Dell customer service was ruff. Glad I didn't ask for a full meal deal, whatever that is.
 
 
 
 

They're just not used to people ordering the healthier items from them - lol!

LOL...I guess that makes us even. I'm not use to ordering from them either.

Then I pulled up to get it....she hands me the large tea and I grip it and half of it spills out
and runs down my arm because she didn't have the lid in place LOL. That's a funny place.
I may go inside one of these days.

If you want to really torture them, give them not quite exact change and watch what happens.

For instance if my bill is $5.82, I'll give them $6.07 naively thinking "that way I just get a quarter back and it's simpler for everyone!".

You didn't see those women at the window!! I'm glad I was polite! I think you could turn them loose in the woods with a switch and they's show up with a five course meal.

I always get Charlie Browns teacher...wa wa wa, wa wa wa, wa.

I went to Wendy's the other day and they did the exact same thing (different menu options, but...)

it's because you can't tell them what you want unless it's in the exact order they have on their screen or they'll not be able to handle the latency.

ME:  I'd like a #8 homestyle with small fries and a diet coke.
Wendy's drone: a #8, would you like that grilled or ****y?  <== frickin' stupid forum software!  s - p - i - c - y is NOT a racial slur!
ME:  homestyle
Wendy's drone:  what size fries and drink?
ME:  small
Wendy's drone:  what type of drink?
ME:  diet coke

and when it arrived, it was grilled chicken instead of "homestyle" 

I like home. I seem to understand things around there much more.
"What would you like?"...whatever you feel like fixin' baby...and a wonderful meal
happens.

You always have to question any fast-food place creating something "home-style!"

that's just code word for "breaded and deep fried in a vat of dirty vegetable oil."
