One question, at these upscale fast food joints. After you have ordered, do they still ask you if you would like _______ with that?

I hate that!!!!

If I wanted _______ then I would have included ______ in my order!
How many times has that actually worked?
How many times has someone actually said, you know a McIce Cream cone sounds really good right now.... Yea we'll take one for each of us!
That's an especially great suggetion when in the drive thru!

If you can call it a suggestion....
At a restraunt they say, might I suggest _______ with that.
No you may not, but thats alright atleast they were polite, classy, and respectful about it so I will respond that way.

Are people in this society really that undecisive? I know exactly what I want when I either pull up to the mic, or approach the counter.

I love Sub-Way but it pisses me off to go in there. I'm alright after we get through the bread questions till we get to the toppings.....
OMG just shut up!!!!
I know what I want, I will tell you what I want, when they ask me if I want olives or onions; that my friends confuses me. I then have to decide if olives or onions are on my list of what I wanted. Why does it have to be "or" what if I want both?

rant off...

They are doing the "upscaling" here too. I guess they are going to put gas fire places in some. I've seen a couple that they've done that.

We do service work in the area McD's. They may have made the places look fancy but they are still serving you the same food. The employees might be wearing black ties and cumberbuns but they are still the same "cream of the crop" they have been employing for years.

They are investing all this money because they are losing customers. I personally think they need to do more than change their image to gain appeal.

Think of it as Dante's Inferno and all the circles (levels) of Hell.

There are many more levels of boredom than you might imagine.

I was only skimming the surface last night.

Be thankful you haven't experienced (and remain oblivious of) it because it isn't pretty.

As you can see though, I am typing once again. Thank God for that.

I havent seen ur truck around man, have you seen mine at all, I am usually at the mall on friday and saturday nights I normally park underneath by the ice rink... To get to the mall, I just take McDermott to preston, people are affraid of my truck, so I stick the front out a little, and they let me get on to preston, but turning on to preston, I always go down the left hand lane, cuz the right is always backed up... Ill look out for your trcuk now...
