I do this, but only when I'm on my lunch break at work. I have a decent stash of stuff at work that has came in handy many times.

The break rooms here have nothing but coffee, hot cocoa packets, paper towels, paper cups, and water. No salt, no pepper, no ketchup or mustard packets, no stirrers or plastic utensils, nothing. many of the rooms even have a toaster oven but with no tray or foil.

There are PLENTY of items in the vending machine that require salt or utensils for preparation.

I started bringing in my excess salt packets and leaving them in the closest break room to share but people kept throwing them away. I got an aluminum foil bowl thing (like a pie crust pan) for the toaster oven and started filling it with plasticware and packets and put it in an empty drawer (one was full of coffee packets). I came back 1 day later and they threw it all away again and stuffed the second drawer full of coffee packets too. Why do we need two drawers of coffee packets and no salt? It's not like there isn't a ton of room in the rest of the cabinets. Just to screw with them, I found 2 packaged tampons and a wrapped maxi pad on the floor and set those in the same drawer. They are still there two weeks later.

None, they make you grab your own off to the side.

At the drive through?!
 
Where the fuck do you work that not only one femenine hygene product was on the floor, but three? How old are you to put them in a food drawer?

Probably part of the reason that place doesn't leave out anything for you guys.

I only need one to wipe grease off its if dripping off whatever I got -- which is usually not the case.

If I need to wipe my hands off, I use my socks. Only a fool uses their pants.

News flash: Women's restrooms typically have coin-operated dispensers for these products. Janitors drop stuff. They drop rolls of toilet paper too. It was clean.

There is a local Burger King that gives TWO napkins whether ordering by tray or bag.

I am not joking.

To top it off, there is no dispenser. It is consistent and been going on over a year. It is not an oversight. They receive specific instruction to provide only two in a ridiculous effort to save condiments.

When I eat, my nose usually runs. I can't blow it in the bathroom because they only have an electric hand blow dryer (no paper towels), so I need more napkins. They usually just throw my tray up on the counter and walk away even though I make it a point to stand there and ask for more napkins and salt/pepper (yes; they don't even have salt shakers on the tables or packets available... it's all behind the counter). Even though I was ready and belted it out as soon as they showed up, I have to stand there and call/beg them to come back, by which point they are already doing something else and I have to wait. It pissed me off so I stopped going for the $3 Whopper Wednesday value meals (yeah; a $3 Whopper meal. NOT the Whopper Jr.). Simple as that.

There are so many damn things wrong with this post.

1. Your nose runs every time you eat? Dude, see a doctor.
2. You KNOW your nose will run, and you KNOW they won't have sufficient napkins. Why not bring your own or bring a handkerchief?
3. You're complaining about a lack of salt an pepper? At Burger King? Shit dude, how much seasoning do you need on your food?
4. This has been going on for over a year, and you've finally decided you're not going to go back there. You're a slow learner.

You must have comprehension problems.

I stopped going very quickly ("fool me twice"). I went back AFTER a year to make the video.

No, my nose doesn't always run, but most people get runny nose and watery eyes when they have something spicy or have a little cold.

One can EXPECT a dining establishment to have napkins. Why would *you* EVER supply them?

Fast food is not consistent. VERY often fries have nearly no salt and the meat is flavorless. If it's flavorless and salt isn't available, eating it is only killing yourself with junk food for nothing.

You fail at describing what you encountered then. Most would have assumed you were talking a non-bathroom area.

Still to put them in the food drawers and think they were clean once found on a public bathroom floor is pretty fucking disgusting. What kind of slob are you?

What were you doing scrounging around in the ladies bathrooms anyway?

anyone ever tell you that you are a bit self-perpetuating in your problems.

You are also inconsistant in your tales...you say the stuff is flavorless but then go on to say you need the napkins because it's spicy.

You trying to sue someone, you sound like one of those types.

They were dropped from a janitorial cart. The janitors have the same cart in the break rooms while they clean out the fridge and change the trash cans. These carts spend comparitively very little time near the women's restrooms. Each of your assumptions adds to the "WTF?!" factor I was going for.

I simply described that there are many things that can make my or anyone else's nose run. It's cumulative... not contradictory or an alternate explanation.

My nose is rarely clear and, when eating, it means that I can't reliably breathe through my mouth. The means clearing my nose, if possible. Sometimes, once clear, it runs. It's somewhat common. I had surgery 17 years ago. Spicy foods and colds/flu affect me the same as anyone else and certainly factored in a year and a half ago when I first went there.

Regardless, are you actually implying that they should not have salt and pepper shakers or packets available to the customers directly?

As much as you snivel about it, no wonder your nose runs all the damn time. Quit being such a whiner. Besides, real men either a) don't need napkins because they get the food in their mouth or b) wipe the mess on their "working man's clothes" versus the little designer shit that you probably wear.
 
Dunno about mcds but i always order like 4$ worth of food at taco bell and take all the hot sauce they have out. I put that stuff on everything: eggs, soup, sandwiches. Even make bbq sauce with it.

damn dude you are fucked up. Enjoy playing with tampons....perhaps try sticking them in your nose since you snot all over the place.

Could be an epic win for you in life.

It's a seurity uniform. Insult me for being a security guard, but don't insult me for my "choice" of work shirt (or lack thereof). It must be cleaned or else I can be written up for being in an improper uniform. In this restaurant, you can't even do that in the bathroom. You have to make a public spectacle of yourself asking for two napkins at a time and using water from the soda fountain. It's ridiculous.

Besides, I'm just participating in the thread someone else created. Don't attribute it to me.

Oh, very intelligent. FWIW, "playing" with them probably involves more than picking them up so no one slips on the round tubes and, instead if throwing them away, putting them in the drawer closest to me while still stewing over my inability to eat my lunch due to the inconsiderate disposal of my utensils.

Mischaracterize all you want, but I speak the truth.

like I said, next time keep them with you and shove one up your nose if you are a lunger.

Nice story telling. How about next time just throw them away like an adult would or return them to the janitorial cart.
