And That Is Why You Work At Fast Food

Genius: What can I get you?
Me: Large roast beef on sourdough
Genius: You want everything on it?
Me: No, just olives and lettuce only. Nothing else.
Genius: Olives and lettuce only?
Me: Yes, only olives and lettuce.
Genius: *Puts mayo all over the bread*

Jesus Christ. I'm the only one in the store and you can't get the most simplistic order right.

The best part was when she then removed the mayo from the bread and put it back in the pile to 'save it for the next customer'.
 
The guy taking the order isn't the one making your shit. The guy making your shit is looking at a screen readout of your order. Maybe the guy making your shit is new and doesn't notice the special order, but instead just slaps another burger together the same way he's been making 100's of other burgers that day. Or the guy taking your order may be new and can't find a magical button on the ridiculously complicated register for your whiny special order and would rather make fun of you quietly for ordering fast food and having the balls to ask for a custom order. Jesus christ, if you want something specific go make it yourself. If you want something fast and cheap made by someone who isn't paid enough to give a shit about your fucking faux-health-concerns or your frivilously picky taste, expect mistakes.

Have you ever worked in fast food? Do you have any idea how fast paced and stressful it can be?

Fuck you, asshole.

Actually I don't think it is complicated or stressful for intelligent people that will eventually have real careers.

For high school drop outs and other idiots, then yes it is a very difficult job.

Its all relative.

You went to burger king and you're ignoring the 15,000 calories you're taking in for one meal and instead electing to worry about what a manager is doing on his break that he'll wash his hands after enjoying?

I bet you're the kind of asshole who rolls up to the window with a custom order and gets pissed at something as pedantic as a little mayo.

Relative, indeed. I work at Intel in a lab with product engineers who have degrees and are some of the smartest people I've ever met. I frequently answer their questions and I know for a fact that many of them couldn't keep their head screwed on straight in a fast-paced physical environment with half a dozen things going at once, multitasking like a motherfucker.

Can I write up a bios from scratch? Hell no. Can I out-class any of these guys away from a keyboard? You bet your ass. Does that make me dumb? No, I have an IQ or 146. Does that make them dumb? No, they're pioneering the bleeding edge of the technology industry.

Relative my ass, it's about experience in the job and practice.

Wow you god damn retard, it was at a Subway where the person taking the order is also making my food. The girl has been there at least a year, which is moot because it doesn't take a genius to understand what "NOTHING ELSE BUT THESE TWO ITEMS" means.

Not to mention no one else is in the store, it's well before the lunch rush hour, so it's not stressful in the slightest.

Go die you pathetic loser.

Haha, no. An ex girlfriend's high school drop-out brother works at the local McD's though. He's smart, he just doesn't apply himself. He's fast, smart, but if he's not getting a paycheck he doesn't care. He'll never go to college. I sincerely doubt he'll ever have a real career until mid-life and that'll be because he earned it the hard way by working hard and being good at what he does. He does work hard, he is good at what he does, and he's working his way up the ranks quickly.

I've worked both McD and BK. I now have a "real career". Both fast food places were WAY more stressful than what I do now. Having the CEO all over my ass because of a project is nothing compared to serving 400 high school students, 100 constructions workers, and a slew of whoever else drops by all within a 2hr period.

Try it some time...

well, since you know she's been there a year, which means you're a repeat customer, which tells me that she doesn't fuck up your order that often.

So, yeah, continue to denigrate people you see as 'below you'. It will work for you.
It will serve you well in your no doubt long life ahead of you, you immature twit.

Yup! ex girl's bro tells me about $1000+ per hour during busy hours. A thousand dollars an hour coming through one window and going out the other. With meals that are almost all less than $6.50? Good freakin grief! And, during construction and certain seasons, he's talked about tackling $1000+ every hour for his entire 8 hour shift. Holy fuck.
 
I was about to side with those agreeing that your order didn't need to be special, but I realized this was at a Subway. No excuse for these slip-ups by said employee.
 
I'd have given you a sandwich with sourdough bread, olives, and lettuce. have a nice day!
What do you do for a living?
