when you go eat at fast food restraunts are you more tollerant if it tazkes a long time for them to get you your food or less tollerant? I'm actually less tollerant because i know in general how long an order should take to make.

I used to work at Burger King, and I'm very tolerant. like if I see the cashier is just a teenager (like myself) and is swamped with customers, i can understand why my order will take a bit.

the real problem is the savage, and barbaric customers that think they can just leave all their trash over every table. I yell at my friends all the time and tell them to stop falling to such levels of savagery

so can i and in fact i mostly ticked at the cooks not the cashier who doesnt actually control the food not so much when they are swamped but like Taco Bell when I'm the only one in line and it still takes forever and they somehow still mange to get my order wrong

I've learned to never question my order. If they screw it up, oh well. I just eat it.

It depends on the place, if my plate is more costly I'm more tempted to complain if there are "issues"

this.

I don't usually care if it takes a long time either, unless I have somewhere to be.

If they mess it up, i'm cool with it. The only thing I always ask for is Ranch. I will actually go when busy just to get ranch dipping sauce. haha

But yeah, customers can be jerks, so I give fast food people an easy time.

More tolerant because I worked in a place where it actually took time to cook the food so I can see why it'd take long.

i worked at a taco bell for awhile, and after I am really tolerant with fast food workers. Working fast food sucks really bad. And you have to remember even if its not busy food can still take awhile. Some food at taco bell like the chalupas had to be cooked each time, so if they run out they have to make a new batch, anyways y eat fast food, its disgusting

yahmcdonalds does this to me like every night. I go there after work and order 2 double cheeseburgers and a large fry. It always takes at least 7 to 10 minutes. And there ususally isnt anyone in there. I bothers me, but im used to it now.

I had to wait maybe 7 minutes or so at a McDonalds in Boston. I have no idea why, but it was quite surprising that it took so 'long'. I didn't really mind, but it seems a lot longer when you're expecting it to be about 2 minutes.

naw man, im usually very patient, but i hate stupid people.

heres what happened to my last visit at mcdonalds with the stupidest **** i have ever seen.

Me: A double big mac combo with a coke please...

her: k... what would you like to drink?

me: ...a COKE....please

*receipt is printed, price looks too cheap*

me: did you charge me for a DOUBLE big mac??

*she examines the receipt*

her: yep

*order comes and its a damn regular big mac*

me: im sorry but I ordered a double big mac!

pissed off supervisor: k well i gotta charge you an extra dollar because SHE didnt do it.

he overheard everything and I can tell he was so irritated that anyone could be so stupid.

I've never had a problem at a fast food place--well, nothing I consider a problem--and the people are always nice.
