I didn't think that I would ever post in this thread because I seem to be bitching about certain things alot. So I just decided that I'd keep my mouth shut when this one opened up.

I have to admit that tonight something happened that pushed me over the edge.

I hate people that go through the drive through at a fast food place, and ask the person on the other end of the speaker how much things on the menu are.

Do they NOT see the big sign out near where their car is ??? It has these things called LETTERS on it..and usually (but not always)right after the letters, are some things called NUMBERS. If you read those two things, you should be able to figure out how much the food (in this case) costs. Some of the signs even come with PICTURES to help explain what the item is.

(come up for air, Nutworld)

It may come to a shock to people, and evidently most people don't realize, that the store employees probably don't have the entire menu committed to memory, and can't recite all cost on a whim. That is the reason for the sign that is back there in the first place.

(breath, nutworld, breath)

It was completely shocking to me to hear a customer complain that
A)because I didnt have the menu committed to memory, and
B) didn't know the price of a newer item that they wanted.. the result of this was,......... and I quote:
"you are a fucking idiot, and we are leaving".

I've never in my life had the F-bomb dropped on me by a customer at a place of employment. I don't mind having someone complain that the service I give is slow, or I'm not speaking clearly enough, but is there a call to drop an F-bomb, when the customer has the info at their disposal? Is there anywonder that the general consensus is; that people are getting more and more rude.


We now return you to your regulary scheduled broadcast.
