McDonald’s doesn’t provide a receipt at the first window, they provide it at the second along with your food.

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago

That's not true at the McDonalds I've been to. They always ask me at the first window if I would like a receipt.

[–] KokusnussRitter@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Not acusdomed to drive throughs. How would the guy get the karens receipt?

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 12 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

By paying for it at the first window. He's in front of her. He gets to pay, says "I'm paying for me and car behind me. I need both receipts please"

Goes to second window for pickup. Shows both receipts, gets given both orders.

Leaves.

They don’t even have a receipt printer at the first window.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

The McDonalds near my house works as I've written. I hand them a card, they ask if I want a receipt, they hand me back my card and the receipt.

[–] Trail@lemmy.world 1 points 21 minutes ago (1 children)

You physically give them your card?!

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 1 points 19 minutes ago

Yes. It's how it works with most restaurants here as well. Hand it to them, they leave and return with the thing to sign and the card. Or in the case of drive throughs, the card and the receipt.

[–] KokusnussRitter@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Ooooh. Thanks for explaining :)

I was driving back from Atlanta a few years ago and stopped into a chicfila drivethru to grab some lunch on the go. I didn't realize how backed up they were until i was already stuck in line and had no way to get out. There were 2 parking lot entrances merging into 1 drive-thru lane, the guy in front of me let a car from the other lane go in, then he went, so I figured the understanding was zipper merging and just taking basic turns so I let the other car go, then I went. When I got to the person to take me order she said "The guy in front of you has already paid for your meal for letting them go in front of you."

When basic courtesy is so rare it needs to be rewarded.

Saw this a few months ago but it was from a woman. Congrats on the transition!

I had a run in in the drive thru a couple years back. I pulled into one of the two lanes at McD, and another car went through the second lane. I wait my turn, and then try to pull forward, but the person in the other car was riding up on the bumper of the person ahead of them, like, clearly intentionally making sure there was no room for me to take my turn.

So I roll down my window and call out "Hey, they're gonna get our orders mixed up" and before I'd even finished my sentence the driver GOES BALLISTIC on me. Just screaming "oh my God, really? Really?? Over a burger? Really?? Really? Really??" And I just rolled my window back up. The person drove forward just far enough to keep me from moving ahead, but not far enough to get to the first window to pay. They waited. Waited until the line cleared up. Then they gunned it past the pay window and straight to the food window.

I pulled up to the pay window, rolled mine down and loudly declared "Yeah, could I get my receipt too? I think this person ahead of my is trying to take my food!"

At which point the driver ahead of me peeled out of the drive thru without having received any food.

Window person said that such a tactic had been done a few other times that month by other people.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

Would have been hilarious if they slid into a curb while peeling out and got stuck because their wheel got fucked up.

[–] binarytobis@lemmy.world 19 points 10 hours ago

McD is the kind of place where they would say “Tough shit, re-order” as well. That’s why I stopped going like a decade ago.

I worked a drive-through for long enough to believe it.

[–] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Same. Every day was like a lengthy masterclass in infinite fresh flavors of assholery and Karen-hood. As soon as you think you've plumbed the shadowy depths of the human condition, the floor comes out from under you. Then, all of a sudden, you're gazing straight into the maw of a clapped out Chevy Trailblazer where there used to be a drive thru window, and the driver is now prancing around nude, ranting about dipping sauces and firing a 12-gauge into the ceiling tiles.

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 75 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

Nah, it was

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 4 points 13 hours ago

Wow, I haven’t heard that song in a long time… thanks for the ear worm…

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 9 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (1 children)

I'd almost put money on the attendant asked the guy to wait a moment, then this lady honked because she had to wait in line for an extra 14.7 seconds...but when it was her turn to order she stared at the menu for 2 minutes, then ordered for more people who can fit into her car.

The same type of person at the grocery store who will complain yOuRe TaKiNg ToO lOnG if someone is looking at something she wants, but then will park her cart in the middle of the aisle and stand there for 4 straight minutes.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

At my Walmart, everyone tends to be so polite, Ive unintentionally left my cart blocking the aisle until I realize why someone is standing there holding a basket. I kind of wish more people would be like "Oi! Move it!"

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

This is some god-tier trolling

[–] SaorSol@startrek.website 5 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

No one should be giving money to IDF burger

Apartheid burgers and a geno-side of fries

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 12 hours ago

Is McDonald’s all that much more active in supporting Israel than any other corporate fast food chain?
