Fast??? food rant

If you are going to go to Wendy's on Min St in Suffolk (nexto the bridge).....

Don't order anything complicated.....
No one behind me when I placed my order... went up and paid and was told immediately to pull ahead to the door and they'd bring my order out... still no one else in line... except for the truck in front of me at the door waiting on his order.

They brought his out to his truck (3 bags of food) and he ended up having to go in for another bag they forgot.....

He pulls out and I pull up to the door and wait.... 5 minutes.... still no one behind me.....

I finally get fed up (i wish) and backed up to the window... another 3 minutes before anyone came to the window..... the girl finally opened the window and I asked where my food was.. "Oh they still have to fix it"... I went off....

My complicated order?... a Double cheeseburger only catsup....

REALLY???? She started to tell me to pull forward and I told her I would as soon as I got my burger.

I just realised that it must take WAY much more time and effort to make one only catsup and cheese....
They MUST have to make a fully loaded burger ... then scape all traces of everything off.

And they want more money?

YEAH RIGHT!

get use to it

I went to a KFC in Memphis once and they were out of chicken! Middle of the day! Out of chicken! Really?!!

When Mickey D's use to make a good double cheese burger it was my choice. Now I never eat there anymore.:dono

I still get 'em: 2 McDoubles, a small fry and an glass of ice water. Around $3.40, total. Hard to beat...what a cheapskate/that is me. But I always get notoriously slow service... Wendy's shudda known betta!! Next time, ask for the little girl with the red pigtails!

I'm boycotting McDs for reasons I'll not go into here.

That being said, I used to do 2 McDoubles large fries and large Unsweetened Tea for less than $5.

I haven't been in one since my wife got robbed in the ladies room of one about 15 years ago. Don't intend on ever buying from one either.

If they get the $15 an hour that they want & the big government wants to give them, they would do a better job. :Rofl
$15 an hour for a French fry technition. Give me a break. They can't even get a 3 piece order right.

They cant even get a 1 burger order right.

Those places should burn to the ground, the Wendy's in franklin is notoriously bad... I'd much rather spend a few extra dollars at a mom and pop place or even five guys or firehouse...chic Fil a proves that it can be done well, in a timely and professional mannor... at micky ds best case youll get a " you want dat plain or like it be comin?" It all starts with bad management, the rest just trickles down.. And a med combo at BK is like $8 now... Poor quality and asking alot for it!

And then..........
















There is Hardee's crew all the way down here. I think you have to get fired from another slop house to work for Hardee's.

Them Mom and Pop places were the best. If you saw more than four rigs out in front you knew it was the best. But they are all gone now due to the "fast food" Just what is fast? There was a place in front of the Chevy dealer I used to work at in Northern Ill. soup and a sandwich for two bucks. NOT FAST but just good. That's why I like fishing its slow.

If you wanna keep your blood pressure in check and get your order correct do NOT use the drive thru...............It's not that big of a deal to park walk inside place your order check your order at the counter.........then leave.

For some reason I do not understand almost all FF joints put their worst employee's in the drive thru! Then top that off with multiple drive thru lines and it's a recipe for a disaster............

Think leathal weapon 2 and the funny but true line Joe pesci extols about a drive through..............:Rofl

Joe Pesci was my first thought.


it is what it is. Good food ain't cheap, cheap food ain't good, and none of it is really fast. Pay your money, take your chances.

Ill be be at wawa picking up a gobbler and a grapefruit juice for the days fishing. Get my ice and gas while in there thank you. Maybe royal farms for some fried bird if I feel froggy.

Id like to think you could make a good business with a small burger and BBQ joint somewhere off 58 or 460. Do breakfast, lunch, knock off at 1500.

BK down this way has it THEIR way. Not yours. Wendy's here just got sanitation grade B. Mcds serves gut grenades. Try to stick with local choke and pukes. CF

...hard to beat a balogna sandwich on Wonder bread.. 'cept one with mustard. :crazy:
