My wife found this in her FB feed so I just had to share:)
"I know I shouldn’t have done this, but I am 83 years old and I was in the McDonald’s drive-through this morning and the young lady behind me leaned on her horn and started mouthing something because I was taking too long to place my order. So when I got to the first window I paid for her order along with my own. The cashier must have told her what I'd done because as we moved up she leaned out her window and waved to me and mouthed "Thank you.", obviously embarrassed that I had repaid her rudeness with kindness. When I got to the second window I showed them both receipts and took her food too. Now she has to go back to the end of the queue and start all over again, Don't blow your horn at old people, they have been around a long time.. "
And put more stress on the employees, trying to figure out what happened and then quickly remaking it for her while she's at the window.
I don't know why they would think she had to go back to the end of the line. Have they never had a screw up at the window at McDonald's? They either fix it while you wait at the window (holding up the entire line) or have you pull ahead or into a parking space and they bring it to you.
Exactly. She may have even gotten it for free if she made enough of a fuss, and TBH I would understand her point of view. It's a flawed system where you can pay for and take the food meant for the car behind you. Rude behavior isn't fixed by even more rude behavior. Maybe grandma should learn to order more quickly - it's McDonalds... not that complicated.
100% agree. 👍
