2012 May 15 - McDonalds. Paid for it.....Do you really want it?

You've paid for it...do you really want it.

So - I left a very busy day of work today! It was wide open busy all day long. I've got a broken ankle and it hurts...more now than it did when it happened two weeks ago. So, I try to keep it lifted and try to stay off of it when I get home, but it still hurts...(but I digress).

I stopped at McDonald's restaurant because the huge salad I ate was long gone by 5pm. It was starting to rain. I paid for my meal and went up the window to receive my food. This girl acted like she wasn't all there...intentionally or not... Anyway, She finally tells me to 'Please move up (where?) and it will take 2 minutes to cook my fish sandwich.

Ok, I'm game. So I pull up but there isn't a specific place for me to park. There is a sign at the only park in front of the drive through and it says DO NOT EVER PARK HERE! OK then. So, I am sitting out in the way as far down the drive through as I can. It starts to rain harder. I sit and wait. They are supposed to bring me my food. Nothing. Finally after 7 minutes, I park the car in the next available park and I walk to the restaurant.

Then, I walk in and one girl is leaning on the wall behind the counter. I walk up and say 'Yes, you CAN help me!" I ask if she can help me get my food that I was sitting outside waiting for and was only supposed to take 2 minutes and now 10 minutes later I don't have. Then there is all kinds of discussion about it. One of the servers (?) ask me if I was the one getting the fish sandwich. "Well YEAH, supposed to". I was a bit sarcastic.

Everyone looking at each other and one young man goes to get my food and on the way back throws in (unknown) 2 apple pies. I thank him when he apologizes and I stalk (as best I can with my cast on and glad they can see me hobbling) out the door, into the rain and into my car.... I'm still seething halfway home. Had to make myself relax. Oh well. I won't ever again pull forward. I will make them change my order before doing that again. :(
