Me: I'm going to make a McDonald's run if you want anything.

Friend: <starts to say something>

Me: Don't order something that makes me seem like a total asshole.

Friend: <long pause>
He's ordering at McDonald's. There's no way to not look like an asshole.

Even if only assholes ate at McDonald's, which is clearly not the case, there would still be a relative scale of assholery. On one end of the spectrum would be upstanding citizens like my self that mostly stick to the number system, and on the other end of the spectrum would be the scourge of society with their light ice and their pickles on the side bullshit.

I agree. Pickles are bullshit.

I used to work at mcdonalds and "special requests" were just normal, they were very common. not a problem.

#teamPickles

edit: but expect to see others getting their food before you, even though they ordered after you. people get really mad when they see that happen. keep in mind yours might be a little fresher than theirs, plus you wanted something different.

Maybe not a problem for the people working inside, but if you're the one stuck behind a van full of special ordering special people, it's a problem.

I bet America would save 50 billion dollars a year in lost productivity if people limited themselves to 1 alteration per order at McDonald's.

had never thought about it like that :LOL: I didn't care what the people in the parking lots and drive through were doing as long as they weren't screaming at me or barfing.

I like the idea of some kind of customer service program that incentivizes saving peoples' time and punishes the wasting of peoples' time. Like when you step up to order, you're on the clock. If you get in and out before the standard allotted time, pow, auto discount. If you dig through your stuff for 5 minutes looking for a penny because you have an unhealthy obsession with never getting change, you get charged extra. This would of course probably enrage people and kill a business, but it would be so worth it just to try.
