I know that they only employ teenagers, but is there a rule that says McDonalds can only employ friggin idiots as well? :mad:
Here is my encounter this afternoon
Me: (in the drive thru after ordering two happy meals for my son and daughter) So which Transformer toy is it this week? If its a new character we will want an extra.
Intercom: Um.. Bumblebee
Me: Na, ya had Bumblebee a few weeks ago. Do you know which it is?
Intercom: (10 seconds of silence)
Intercom: Do you want anything else?
Me: And a large triple cheeseburger meal please.
Intercom: That will be $21.45, please drive through.
Me: Hang on, so did you know which Transformer toy it is?
Intercom: It's Bumblebee
Me: Ok, never mind.
I go through the drive-thru and get the food. Before I even leave the carpark I check my sons Happy Meal and sure enough there is a Drift in it. So I park and and go back in and take the Drift to the counter.
Me: Hi, the guy on the drive-thru said you had Bumblebee Happy Meal toys but its this one so I want to grab an extra one.
Cashier: Oh you want to swap it? Sure
Me: No, I said if it was a different character I wanted another but he said it was Bumblebee. Since it's not I want to grab another one too.
Cashier: Ok, I'll be right back (she disappears into a storeroom)
Cashier: Sorry, we don't have any more Bumblebee's, its just that one.
Me: (irate now but managing not to yell) I don't WANT a Bumblebee! I TOLD the guy on the intercom that if it was a NEW CHARACTER I would want a second! He said it was BUMBLEBEE so I didn't get one. It's NOT BUMBLEBEE so I WANT TO PURCHASE A SECOND ONE OF THIS TOY PLEASE! (holding it up)
Cashier: Oh ok, sure, sorry.
I mean, for frags sake! :mad: I'm guessing the idiot on the intercom only knew the name of one TF character so thats what he said which makes him lazy at his job, but she's a moron too. As it is Ive taken to getting reciepts since half the time I order a triple-cheeseburger and when I open the bag half way back to the farm it turns out to be a regular one :rolleyes:
