McDonalds - what the hell?
Robert Mahoney
Apparently my first message came out like shit so here the deal.
About a week ago I went to McDonalds when the sales rep (McWorker) tells
me I'm not suppose to be there. I ignore her ramblings and ate my meal,
but the whole time she was eyeing me, like I was a criminal. Then I came
went to McDonalds yestarday and I saw the McWorker (Lucy) talking to
another McWorker and when I get to the front of the line they refuse to
serve me. Now I'm pissed like hell and ask why. So Lucy tells me that
me and my friends were in here a month ago causing trouble for a manager
and now I can't be served. The thing is she has mistaken me for someone
else and when I try to explain it to her, she says how she's sorry but
Head management says I can't be served. I ask her how long this is
suppose to be for and she says the ban is FOREVER. I asked to speak to
the manager(George) and he tells me the same thing how "I can't call
women dogs and treat them poorly". I tell him they have mistaken me and
he gives me the same story. The patrons behind me were on my side but I
didn't get served. What Shit! I asked about the manager if I could get
her name so I can prove that it wasn't me but Lucy says "Sorry, but thats
confidential information." Now what the fuck do I do?

And you`re complaining? Jesus, sounds like a blessing to me. Take your
business elsewhere.

i'm really suprised that mcdonalds of all places would have that much
consideration for their employees.
you should call the owner of that franchise and have a talk with them, if
you really have a strong urge for mcdeath food.
if not.....eat somewhere else...isn't there usually more than 1 mcdonalds
in any given area?

You could stand outside and proposition somebody {or get a friend}
to buy your food for you. Or go through the drive through with a hooded
sweatjacket on and sunglasses. Or you could grow a beard and moustache
and cut your hair or shave and grow your hair out. Wear hats. Or do none
or all of the above.

Do you know HOW to read a thread properly? If you did, it would be
obvious where Bozo dropped off and where I picked up. I felt sorry for
the poor slob. Maybe he lives in a one-room flat equipped with nothing
more than a bunsen burner. Maybe McDonalds is his only salvation for
morning coffee. Who cares? Rake me over the coals me for trying to lend
some advice will you? Go choke on a $20.00 steak.
Do you know anything? Why don't YOU go try and get a permanent injury
using public facilities and S_U_E American Standard. Go to Hell.

Or you could just go to Burger King instead.

Let's see... if you are a U.S. citizen, I'd say you have the following options-
a) Complain to the world on Usenet.
b) Get a lawyer, a publicity specialist, and do lots of TV interviews while suing
McDonalds for a disgustingly out of proportion amount.
c) Write your congressman/local newspaper/name on the drivethru menu board with a
big black marker.
d) Join a fringe terrorist group, go back, and fight to the death for your right
be overcharged for cheap fried foods.
e) Hang out on alt.revenge, and try some "good" ideas you'll pick up there such as
siccing the Health Inspector on them or pissing on the manager's car.
or, f), simply eat somewhere else and enjoy the warm glow of inner righteousness.
The real question is- What do you think is the RIGHT thing to do?
Of course, no matter what choice you make you can never really enjoy a meal there
again; even if they did serve you you'd always wonder if they were tossing pubic
hairs in the fries or making a "special" special sauce just for you.
..I always wonder that, having done time in the restaurant business myself.

Apologies for misreading the history on the thread: I should have said
"so anyway, Robert,..."
Now that I've pulled my head out of my ass: Screw you Spanky. I never
"raked you over the coals..." or anything close to it, so that part of
your response is incorrect and stupid.
And why the hell shouldn't I slam McDonald's -- it isn't about food
elitism, it's about shameful and socially irresponsible corporate
practices.
: Do you know anything? Why don't YOU go try and get a permanent injury

Go to Hell yourself. American Standard makes a decent product that
doesn't (AFAIK) hurt anyone aside from the occaisonaly victim of a
junior-high-school bully. So that company doesn't deserve blatantly
unfair lawsuits.
McDonald's, on the other hand, fucks up the environment and economies
of whatever regions are unfortunate enough to raise cattle for them.
And because McDonald's sued those british hippies for saying so, as far
as I'm concerned they can be lawsuit-bait for any gold-digging asshole
who can figure out an angle.

Order your food through the drive-up window then take it inside to eat.
