You would think that ordering a burger with no cheese would be pretty simple right?
Not so. Every other time we get my brother a burger they inexplicably put cheese on it. Like the slip even says "no cheese."
Sometimes they fuck with us I think because they will put extra cheese. Or like fucking hide the cheese under the patty. Or both. So when he scrapes the cheese off the top he misses it on the bottom.
When I worked at McDonald's in high school they'd allow us one free meal for our lunch and everyone went totally fucking bonkers while concocting it.
"today I shall try, 2 quarter pounder patties, 4 McNuggets, a hash brown, 4 slices of bacon, a sausage patty, 2 slices of cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and special sauce on a sesame seed bun."

One time I was in West Virginia with my dad and our car broke down near Some City in a Valley (that was under a sniper attack, where we also witnessed a riot of forty odd 13 year-old-girls marching down the road to kick the shit out of some 14 year old girl for a perceived sleight at school). The shuttle driver who took us from the Ford dealership to our hotel was named Sam. He was a wrinkled old ex Federal Marshall who had never heard of Richmond, Virginia, despite living in Norfolk for about a decade.
My Dad always asks the locals where a good place to eat would be, to get the most out of the travel experience.
Sam just kind of smacks his lips, keeps running red lights, and finally answers.
"The Red Roof Diner... they have a bowl of soup that is entirely adequate."
We didn't actually go there. We left our hotel to go to a different hotel's restaurant and got served Classic Rock Themed food. The theme applied to name only; the Rolling Stone hoagie was virtually indistinguishable from the sandwich Dad got in St. Louis, and the Love Me Tenders weren't especially lovely or tender. Or part of me, as I never finished the meal.
All in all, it was a surreal trip.
I also (14 at the time) thought I was having a heart attack at one point, and the ER Doctor kept giving us restaurant recommendations. Like, The Golden Buffet, where you can, and I am quoting this cardiologist treating me for a potential heart issue, "Eat and eat and eat until you die."
Fun trip. But surreal.

Nah man, Made For You started about 6-9 months before I started working there.
As for the "bin them when their time is up", well, I heard a lot of stories about time tags just being moved.

Back when I was studying music and I spent every weekend smoking tons of weed and playing video games at my friends' share house
One of them was a shift mcdonalds manager and we'd count down the seconds to when she'd finish work on friday and saturday nights and come home with arm fulls of stuffed bags. She'd pretty much just grab whatever was pre-made, fill a sack with fries and dip outta there.

One year my mom got some piglets
My mom used to grab all the dead burgers throughout the day to feed to the pigs
One of my friends who worked at McD's got charged with theft for taking home patties that were past their use-by date and not allowed to be sold. It was especially ridiculous because everyone at the McD's was doing it yet he was the only one charged. All of the missing patties were attributed to him meaning he was initially charged with the theft of $25,000 dollars of food stock. That was reduced once they realised that it was insane.
someone explain to me the dumb reserved drive-thru parking at mcdonalds. they are two spots, in addition to the two drive-thru ordering boxes. and you pay, and then they tell you to park in one of those spots, and they bring the food out. except i had to wait literally 10 minutes for a double cheeseburger and small fries.
if i wanted to park my car and wait, i would have gone in, not used the drive-thru mcdonalds. get your shit together.

depends on time of day and how long the product they had sitting in warmers (if there's any) is ready. you might have come along right when they had no cooked paddies available and no fries available and were in the middle of having to prepare food for your order

Your mcdonalds is short staffed because nobody wants to work there and their line is slower than normal during rush

Shit are we still talking about McDs and all the crazy shit antics?
I used to manage a McDonald's. Well, I was an assistant. There were six people on the management staff for the store, and I was the only one that was a not a middle aged hispanic woman.
Will I be served if I walk through the drive-through
Not anymore in Australia! We didn't used to give a fuck, but then someone got run down in the eastern states, so country-wide company policy is to ignore any pedestrians that approach any of the drive-through windows or the order box.

How fast are people driving through the drive-through in the US that I might get run over
Well they might think youre a carjacker or tweaker . You know the kind of people that walk in areas where pedestrians are prohibited
They stopped serving walkers at drive-throughs in Australia and now people do shit like get cabs just to loop through the drive-through to burg up. It is a great loss for the free people of Australia.
Thanks a lot, America, for your tweakers walking through drive-throughs and the other tweakers freaking out and running them over because other people are scary

so I'm trying all kinds of crazy and new... variations on pepperoni pizza
because I need variety in my life, you know
I'll bet this was a special order which you got mistakenly.
People get real weird on special orders, man.
