Not much bothers me in general. Especially at the drive thru window at a fast food place. I don’t have a problem if the food takes too long. It doesn’t bother me when the car ahead either has 30 orders to get or wants a hamburger with certain condiments where I know I’ll be pumping more carbon in the air from my car engine. The only thing that does bother me is if it seems I am being treated differently by the staff. Last night was another example and it made me write this post.
Occasionally I will visit a fast food burger joint near my house between 11 PM and Midnight for a snack. I won’t name the place but they are known for their Frosties. I don’t go every day but enough to pick up on what I think is strange treatment from the staff at the store.
I’ll drive up to the menu board and place my order. A nice Hispanic woman will take the order and have me drive around. Sometimes there will be a car in front of me but a lot of times I will be the only one in line at that hour. The order taker is dressed like she is the shift leader and I can see the manager working the second window.
I’ll come up to the window and the order taker will leave the booth and the manager will appear to take my money. Then I drive up to the 2nd window and the manager will hand me my food.
If there is a car in front of me the order taker will take their money, see me, leave the booth, and the manager will take my money while I see the order taker hand the first car their food. Then when I pull up to the second window the manager will give me my food and see in my mirror the order taker taking the money from any one behind me.
I’ve gone to this location many times at different hours of the day and this only happens when this particular order taker/team leader is working.
I don’t know why she does this to me but it is obvious she doesn’t want to take my money or give me my food. If she is afraid of germs then she is in the wrong business.
It just pisses me off and I had to vent.
