Question for the Dads here. Perhaps some who have worked fast food like McDonalds. Hopefully as a manager.
Went through the drive through this morning and ordered a sandwich and 2 breakfast burritos with a hash brown. That’s it. No drinks no coffee. Very simple order Paid at first window. Pulled up to the second window and was asked to take a pink window card and park to the side and my order would be brought out. I refused, didn’t even let them finish the sentence, it’s happened here before, the thing is they weren’t even that busy. Only 4 cars in the line and looking inside not a lot of people in the dining are,I put the car in park and waited. Another person came to the window to ask and I don’t let them finish. I told them they could give me my refund or my food. Within 1 minute my order was handed to me. Why does this seem to be happening more frequently? I go to places like McDonalds for rapid service. Are they simply understaffed? Wondering if my reaction was appropriate or not. Thanks.

>> No.12666761

It was not appropriate. McDonald's can not perform rapid service anymore. The fast food business model used to accommodate a small range of burgers so they could be made in advance. Now they rely on a wide range of burgers, and always a few novelty seasonal options, so there is no way to predict what is going to be ordered and everything needs to be made fresh. Fast food is not fast anymore, and can not be. You had three orders waiting behind you. You were being an ass.

>> No.12666771

Every time I go to mcdonalds they ask me to pull into a parking space and wait for them, but I think the reason is because I usually order breakfast food for dinner, which they cook to order.

It's not unreasonable to wait a few minutes while they cook you some fresh eggs

Idk, I usually go to mine and get my food within a minute, it's pretty fast. Then again I oder pretty basic stuff like a bigmac and Poutine (there's always fries ready so they just put on the gravy and cheese and it doesn't take more than 15sec). The wildest I go is getting extra sauce in the bigmac.

I guess if you order some chicken and none is fried you'll have to wait a bit but otherwise it should be pretty fast.

>> No.12667732

They get timed for how long a person waits from start to finish and get certain rewards for keeping the wait time low. When they ask you to wait somewhere else, it doesnt count as wait time anymore. I never worked at McDonalds but I did at another chain. The staff would get bonuses with the intention of spreading it around to all the workers but the franchiser would keep most of it himself and gave some to his two top managers (who were both related to hin). Then he wondered why the next year the wait times were so much longer.

A "maintenance" worker is suppose to come in once a month to fix shit. Except that its usually just one of the managers, and I've even been the "maintenance" guy a few times.
The machine is always broken because it overheats and will just refuse to work until you reset it. (Which isn't that hard, but nobody knows how open them up and just reset them).
Btw, guess who's job it is to clean the machine? Yup... the "maintenance" guy. You think any of the managers or workers they ask to fix shit ever both actually cleaning the slime out of the nozzle and shit?
Once a year, someone does come into to do a hardcore cleaning of all the machines though.

if you ordered something small, chances are the orders being made for the bigger order (waiting person) will be stolen (taken by another coworker) and given to the smaller orders (this is what causes most fucked orders IE "i said no sauce" or "I said extra pickles".

So the bigger order has to wait longer and the other orders get completed. If there is a big order, one person usually puts the order together. while other people do the smaller orders.

It gets pretty complicated when there is a rush. but just some fatass coming in before the rush and ordering 15 big macs usually isn't a big deal and can get done fast. btw if you're a fatass like this, please don't try to order this much food during a lunch rush. YOU CAN CALL/PAY AHEAD, and your food will be freshly made, but you won't have to wait 30 minutes.


There is always this order almost every other week I get. Someone comes in and orders exactly 21 pickle slices on his hamburger (the 99 cent one). He literally came in one time and said "there were only 19 pickle slices on it". When I slapped on more than 21 pickles he said to the girl working the counter "wow, okay but now thats too many. its okay though, i can pick them off.".

Kek. I had something like this happen before. Someone over the mic couldn't hear me so I spoke up then she asked why I was yelling at her and called my a fucking idiot in Spanish thinking I wouldn't understand her. I got out of the line, parked, walked inside and asked to see the manager immediately. I talked to him normally and never even raised my voice at him yet he still asked me to calm down like I was about to chimp out or something. These types of people work at these jobs for a reason. They suck at normal human interaction and are borderline autists. The effort there is minimum for a reason, because that's all their wage is worth.

Bad management at modern fast food drive throughs places stress on the employees for not making times during unavoidable peak hours. Often times this leads to poor decision making on the employees part that management allows like diverting people to the front or rushing orders.

On a separate note, chik-fil-a fucking sucks and I'll never understand why people like it, it's just overpriced soggy fried chicken (with no options for double or anything to help the fact that it's tiny and goes down in 3 seconds) on a bun with some slightly above average, but expensive, fries on the side, and their drive thru system is even cringier than McDonalds'.

If you request an item that ISN'T prepared, and someone behind you just wants a drink and a basic bitch burger and fries that can be done in 30-45 seconds instead of 3 minutes to fry up a chicken sandwich or something, then yeah, the person with the basic bitch order should be able to be serviced BEFORE you, even if you ordered first.


It's far more efficient for the line as a WHOLE.

Instead, you backup EVERYONE keeping orders from coming in and potentially making that line even longer because you can't be fucked to wait off on the side for 3 minutes while your shitty order is prepared.

Is this something new? And why pink of all things? That's pretty gay. It should be red or yellow to fit the theme of McDonald's.

When my dad would take us to McDonald's 30 years ago we'd always get asked to pull up to the side (not being a given a gay card either) so this is nothing new. McDonald's has always had shit service as long as I can remember. I'd say you were in the right. If they can't handle 2 burritos something is drastically wrong there. I've seen people sit at the pick up window for 5 minutes without being told to park elsewhere so it's not like it's unheard of to just make people wait. Food should be delivered in the order the order was recieved, so if someone behind you's food is ready first that's another fuck up by the staff.

This. It's not easy when you're low on the employee totem pole and have to balance "the customer is always right" versus "my boss is a bitch and I'll get written up if I don't do as ordered" when both are in direct opposition. It's a no-win scenario. Even worse now that sites like Yelp exist where pissed off customers will publicly call you out by name if they feel you somehow wronged them.

I used to work at a visitor center where there was a movie playing every half hour. The rules were once the doors were shut, tough luck, let no one in. So I'd tell people they missed the show only for my boss to personally go let them in, completely undercutting what little authority I had. Shit drove me insane. I told her in the evaluation but she said it's better to please the customer, but often times she'd waver on that too and tell people they couldn't go in. It was a total 50/50 shot in the dark whether I was doing the right thing or not.

They want to park you so they get credit for being fast without actually having to put in any effort.

Oh hell no. This neighborhood? I don't think so. The fact is that people use drive throughs for protection from getting out of their car and walking to and from their car in a high crime area. When you pulled up to a window, no one can reach into your car and rob you. Sitting in a parking lot, they can. No no no.

The stress of having an angry customer not cooperate with you is never pleasant. Knowing that your times will be messed up for however long and you'll get an earful from some executive that doesn't know what you go through is never pleasant.
I don't know if you've worked retail at all since 2000, but angry customers are very common (angry before they even reach your building) and it is very easy for one to ruin your whole day. It's hard to just ignore them after they left because that customer HATED your guts for that moment and people will never get used to be yelled at while not being able to retaliate in some way.
