Every @#$@#$@#$ place I go, someone manages to mess up my order!!

Olive Garden forgets my Tiramisu, Red Lobster forgets my alredo sauce, Schlotzsky's forgets what kind of sandwich I ordered so through in a pizza. I just went to McDonald's on the way to the office because I'm in a hurry, asked for a #3 w/ ketchup & CHEESE (have to specify, otherwise they don't understand that a cheeseburger should have cheese if you get ketchup only), and I get a hamburger, w/ NOTHING ON IT!

Sorry, just a rant. I'm annoyed.

You can blame Ornery; he doesn't want to pay a living wage so you get zombies. :D

Nothing wrong with the establishment itself - it's the people working there...

Sex is the only thing that sells... In this case, it's the only thing that'll get you the right order.

Solution: Bring both a good looking male and female with you to the restaurant. Have THEM order.

Jeez Moonbeam, our fast food places are paying $7.00+ an hour and they still can't find people!

Good call, Gaul ;) We do the same and ask for certain waitresses. Pays off EVERYTIME!

Funny, but true. I will order a cheeseburger and say I only want ketchup and mayo. The highly trained attendant wearing 2K dollars of electronics will ask if I want cheese on that. I say, yes I want cheese on my cheeseburger. Other times, I will get home and start eating my cheeseburger that has no cheese.....

o hell yeah! Sheesh, the quality of service has DRAMATICALLY fallen due to the need for workers. It doesn't mean they need experience/quality.
