I have the distinct feeling that the guy who took my order at Taco Bell didn't give a fuck. |

I don't know exactly what is was that gave me that impression. Maybe it was the disinterested look in his eyes, or the fact that he got three of my four items wrong, or that he only gave me one fire sauce for my order, or the one napkin that he put in my bag...
Whatever it was, I'm pretty sure he just didn't give a shit about my dining experience.

I sure would have liked a chicken grilled stuffed burrito instead of a ground beef one though.

12. it's best to assume that a fast-food order is only a semi-polite suggestion |

3. He should've been stuffing tacos instead of stuffing reefers with the DEVIL WEED! |
|
He is dark sided. Where is he located? I must cleanse him with fire.

4. He's at the Taco Bell next to the Walmart. |
|
Go "cleanse" him good. Make sure you get a chicken grilled stuffed burrito and a chilli cheese burrito out of him before you do though.

6. An lo, I shall deliver the grilled stuffed burrito with chicken and the chilli cheese burrito |

unto thee. For his sins, I shall consign this young rapscallion to the fiery pit, the eternal grease fire of justice.

... make sure you get some fire sauce too. I ended up having to use my own tabasco on my food. That shit can't go by unpunished.

It's locally owned. They cop an attitude with you, if you ask for condiments. They will snatch the bag out of your hand like you are trying to steal their purse or something. God help you if you ask for extra sweet and sour sauce. It's like you are stealing food from the mouth of a baby or something in their eyes. They look at you like you are a raving lunatic murderer. Well, they look at me that way, anyhow.
Maybe I shouldn't have posted the experience. I do look like a raving lunatic murderer lately, or a deer caught in headlights. Still, they need to unass the damn condiments. I gotta restock the new fridge. I bought their crappy greasy burgers that always make my stomach hurt. The least they can do is unass the fucking condiments. I'm going to have to go all Ramboette on their asses, if they don't stop being so stingy with the sweet and sour sauce and the ketchup. My last words will probably be, "Just hand over the ketchup, lady, and nobody gets hurt." :evilgrin:

8. at least he didn't give you a creepy smile |
|
in college, at the taco bell i used to go to all the time there was this guy that was always at the drive thru. Every time he would hand you your order he wouldn't say anything at all, but he'd have this really creepy smile on his face.

13. Heh. I remember once calling a waiter on his total disinterest. |
|
His response? "Yeah, well now we understand one another." It was rather shocking.

i have a college degree, and make 7.50 in retail. I'm not a dick, i genuinely try to be nice, but i'm not going to go to extraordinary ends on a given sale :shrug:
and i've only been doing it for a year, and that was while waiting to start grad school this fall, so there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Some people don't have that light, especially in central ohio

16. Well. I was abou 28 at the time. I had my degree, had worked and |
|
would never have been as rude as the waiter in question. I phrased my complaint delicately; he was an ass. I'm not sure that the darkness entitles one to Asshood. God knows I'm in the dark now, and my greatest happiness is being kind to people, and getting the same in return. Seriously. What the fuck else is there?

i'm never rude to customers. I just know that dealing with them on a regular basis makes you bitter as hell. i like being nice to people, i really do; it just gets hard after a while when every other one treats you like a piece of filth

I got the same feeling at Corner Bakery yesterday when my Half BLT with fruit as the side arrived as a tuna salad sandwich with cream of broccolli soup.

20. Call the 1-800 number for Taco Bell for customer service |
|
I did the last time my order was fucked up, and I got a two free item coupon in the mail.
The biggest thing I hold against Taco Bell is that for some reason, they can never roll a burrito correctly. I DON'T WANT A FUCKING CORNET, I want a burrito, please :P
