Send that shit back, they forgot the lettuce.

[–] lobut@lemmy.ca 16 points 6 days ago (1 children)

If it's McDs, there's no lettuce on a cheeseburger right?

Or am I taking this too seriously.

[–] AlecSadler@sh.itjust.works 13 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

There is no lettuce on a regular McDonald's cheeseburger.

Source: I just had one.

edit There is on the daily double and the big mac and the quarter stompers though.

[–] regedit@lemmy.zip 1 points 5 days ago

There is on the daily double

I only remember there just being double money with the daily double.

If the price remains the same, is it a possible way to launder money?

[–] prettybunnys@piefed.social 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Not with a receipt that detailed presumably tracked by transaction number in the computer system which also is tied to an inventory system.

Unless of course you’d worked that into the software too.

Anyways. Yes.

But also no.

Maybe.

[–] phdepressed@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The laundering would come from making extra profit per bs sold because its charged as a full burger but only takes a cheese slice out of your inventory/stock cost. You'd lose some of it to franchise overhead and a corporate analyst would probably catch it at a chain when they get greedier but you could do small scale laundering for a while if you didn't get greedy.

[–] prettybunnys@piefed.social 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

but the system would account for the lack of inventory loss, so it would become increasingly hard to justify this.

If it was a mom and pop, easy.

McDonald’s, yeah for a little while but I bet they’d catch you stealing from them before someone caught you laundering money.

Who would catch this, though?

The question asked is whether a franchise owner could use fake orders to use dirty money and boost clean profits. What does the inventory have to do with anything? The franchise owner doesn't care, because they're the ones doing the money laundering. And McDonald's corporate doesn't care because they still get paid.

It doesn't seem like a particularly efficient method of money laundering, but I am curious to know if this could feasibly be a pipeline for cleaning money in small quantities.

If you had someone on both the inside and outside you could gradually steal the exact amount of food that would be missing from inventory and sell it for clean cash.

Each extra wish costs extra

[–] judgyweevil@feddit.it 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

even the wish to not have things?

How could they crop out the price!

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I would hate to work in fast food just trying to get through my shitty day for shitty pay and keep getting weird, stupid prank orders so people online can get upvotes.

[–] Baguette@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 5 days ago

Depends on what the order is

If it's something like this where it's not adding complexity, then I'm fine with it. Makes for a fun story.

when I was working at a coffee chain, I would get terrible orders where it'd be like a fruit drink with twenty scoops of fruit, which is annoying because when that person came in they wanted me to remake it because they wanted it in a separate cup. That's not fun.

[–] cobysev@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

And they still put the ingredient on haphazardly.

Half the time I need to manually rebuild my burgers because the ingredients are slapped together like they're assembling a burger from across the room. You'd think this "burger" would be easy to get right.

excuse me, this cheese was not grilled

[–] Krudler@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

When I was fat as fuck I used to eat McD's breakfast. They had the breakfast sanwiches for like $1 and one day I ordered two English muffins only. They tried to charge me like $6 explaining that the "special" price was only for the sandwich.

So fine, I ordered 2 breakfast sandwiches with no butter, no cheese, no meat. They wanted to argue "that's not how it works" to which my reply was "oh yes it is, now here's my $2".

[–] generic_computers@lemmy.zip 6 points 6 days ago

Reminds me of the scene from Good Burger

I wanted a Good Burger with nothing on it, you just gave me a bun. You said you wanted nothing on it. I at least wanted a meat patty. A meat patty is something, you said nothing.

[–] coolman@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

That cheese is raw though, a cheeseburger goes on the grill

This right picture at first looked like a duck for me.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Had to scroll back to see the duck. Can’t see it.

And Jesus the one time I actually try to write duck it autocorrects to fuck. wtf

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 days ago

Haha nice. I’m still not seeing a duck though. Looks more like the robot maid from The Jetsons.
