Work-related rant...

Really? Interesting. I don't eat anything fancy from there (never had a Big Mac, :eek: I know) so I wouldn't know. That event took place about a year or so ago.

lol I'm not a McDonalds fan either. I stick to either Subway, Taco Bell, or just pack something from home.
 
UGH! I feel ya Patti!
When I worked @ the movie theatre, I would often have to make a FRESH batch of popcorn for someone who didn't want salt on theirs. It takes about 10 mins to make a fresh batch, people get annoyed for having to wait (ugh) then you have to scoop all the salt-free stuff out of the regular kind. ridic. :rolleyes:


I work at a record store now (not legit records lol) and you wouldn't believe how demanding some people are. If we don't have your obscure underground/indie artist we don't have it!!!!!!! That's what myspace is for! lol
 

don't chu just hate people. I work at a summer camp and this one kid had all these crazy allergies so he couldn't be around anything we served. we didn't know this until the beginning, she was supposed to fill it out on a form but never did. she came up with the long list the first morning and told us all the stuff he couldn't have. I swear there is like thirty items on here. Almost everything we were going to be serving. We told her this, and she lost it. She was screaming and cursing and we didn't know what to do. Our supervisor came over and talked to her. I still don't know what happened to them but they never came back. and I'm glad.

I've never had a Big Mac either.
And the Angus burger isn't good, my dad had it one time, I took a bite...
Not good.
But I'm picky about burgers, I'll only eat thin ones, or President's Choice Blue Menu Angus Burgers.
And that's a little too specific for most barbecues :P
 
OK. I work at an ice cream shop. We have Dippin' Dots and today I had the most annoying lady come in. Her son says "Mom, I want bubblegum!" and she looks at me and says "there's no peanuts in that, right?" and I say "I can't guarantee that the flavours containing peanuts haven't cross-contaminated the non-peanut flavours".

She starts getting angry and says "Well, at Story Land they got an unopened bag and a clean scoop and a clean bucket for him".

I told her: "Ma'am, the company itself doesn't guarantee that their bags are peanut-free, regardless of flavour". She gets angrier: "But at STORY LAND, they did it and it was all right". I say: "Ma'am, I don't have room for more bubble gum right now" (the tub I use for bubble gum was full). She says: "Well, isn't there any place you could put them? You can go get that bag now.". Just like that.

So, I wasted seven minutes (that's the average amount of time it takes to walk to the main DD freezer, find the flavour I'm looking for, get back, transfer from bag to bucket, and serve) doing all the aforementioned and now I have what is probably going to end up being a full container/bag of bubble gum dippin dots that will most likely be thrown away when the freezer is next cleaned (bubble gum isn't a very popular flavour and the freezer gets completely cleaned out on Thursday). All because this kid wanted 5 ounces of dippin' dots.

I told the lady that there may be peanut cross contamination on everything but my soft serve (which I had plenty of), but nope. Her kid wanted that bubble gum flavour.

UGH! I was so close to having my boss come speak to her because there was a line about 8 people long behind her (that only grew by the time I finished serving her little prince).

Please promise me, TB, that if you are allergic to anything and somebody tells you there may have been cross-contamination, you won't make that person waste almost $75 in product just so that the chance of cross contamination goes down (but isn't eliminated).
WOW.:sad2:
If I was you, I'd be soooooooooo cheesed off. :furious:
 
lol thanks.. Rachel was kind of pissed, though lol.

i think what got me about it was the nom nom nom... it reminded me of lolcats and all those other sites like that :) and my mom gave me this look like i was crazy as a i fell to the floor lol... all i had to say was nom and she laughed too, we love that site :)
