Open Letter to Fast Food Employees

Hi!

I wanted to let you know that I truly believe you deserve to work in the Fast Food Business. There are many reasons why I feel this...lets list a few.

1. You have the worst attention span of anyone I know...are you smoking weed on your break or during a trash run? Do us all a favor and stop taking hits from the bong on break. I know that your job must suck (I worked in the industry when I was a teenager), but when you can't even get my order entered into the register correctly two seconds after I tell you what I want, you have a problem. I have no sympathy for you because YOU DESERVE TO WORK THERE!

2. When a customer asks for no ice in their drink that is what you should do. I understand that sometimes it is busy and you confuse easily, but that does not mean fill my cup to the brim with ice. I swear that one day I am going to throw my drink at you if it has ice in it. If I want to water down my soda I will do it myself. The soda comes out of the tap cold...I don't need any ice to make it colder. If you can't get it right working at fast food, how do you think you will make it working at a real job? I have no sympathy for you because YOU DESERVE TO WORK THERE!

3. When someone pulls into the drive thru line and finally gets to the order taking contraption, don't greet me with the following; "How are you doing tonight?". lleB ocaT employees are notorious for this. "Can I Take Your Order" is all I want to hear from the drive up box. If I wanted to have a conversation I would call you on the phone and ask for you by name. I am sure slapping meat into tacos all day is a GREAT JOB! If I could do that all day long I would, trust me. You are not my friend so don't act like it. I have no sympathy for you because YOU DESERVE TO WORK THERE!

4. When I get home and realize half my order is missing you should not only replace the food that is missing, you should also refund me the money for the items missing and also give me money for the time I have wasted coming back to your establishment. Gas prices aren't that bad right now, but a few months ago at $4 a gallon I would also want gas money to replace the gas I used driving back. I have no sympathy for you because YOU DESERVE TO WORK THERE!

5. I have no sympathy for you because YOU DESERVE TO WORK THERE!

I accidentally shaved them off.

No one noticed until I told them or they read the blog.
