Okay so this is a culmination of my off the wall experiences in the three short months since I started my job at Madison Wisconsin's local Downtown McDonalds.
This one is kinda meh compared to some of the others but I personally find this hilarious. So here we go!
On my first Saturday I was asked to give a hand during a Local Badgers game, and we were packed. I'm talking we had a line a block long at one point due to us being the only McDonalds in 3 miles to the stadium and right next to it. So I'm taking orders, thinking to my self a multitude of thoughts of what the heck I got my self into, trying to break back into the work force. As I am taking orders all of a sudden I see this college aged girl, just push her way through people and start shouting. "The ladies toilet is plugged! Fix it!" "So I'm like Rude customer whatever." And greet the next one and going crazy on my line of customers. My Manger responds with "Okay we'll get to it when we can." "What does that mean?!" "That means we'll get to it when we can, we're unfortunately busy right now."
He proceeds to wave to the lobby full of customers and the triple if them outside likely wanting a Quick McDouble. So she leaves and we're still going, this line is like a endless sea of customers, like I'm talking I swear I died and was condemned to the ring of Sloth level crazy. Well three more times no more then 3 minutes apart she bothers our manager. It got to the point where he said if she asked one more time he'll have her removed from the store. So after she disrespects that wish she bugs us again and one young man simply said. "No, shut up. If you have to go pee THAT bad. Use a bottle, these men and women are sitting here braving probably the longest line I have ever seen at a McDonalds. You're just making it worse." Probably the only time I'll ever see a round of applause at a McDonalds.
So his one actually involves me, my manager, Â a man who I have no idea what happened.
So I had arrived a half hour early to work, wanting to grab a bite to eat before my shift and noticed my big bad store manager and a rather scruffy man arguing. I assume another dispute and just let it go, confident he'll handle it I go take my order. So I come back in a half hour later and the man returns. My manager tells him to give him a coffee refill and to deny him further service as he is suppose to leave. The man gets noticeably upset, and looks to me, then to my manager and then to me. Then clocks me right in the face, he hit like a wet noodle, but dang he just unprovoked punched me. Then turned to my manager and threw the scolding coffee at him and then hopped over the counter. Now we're scrambling people calling the cops. However, this man suddenly is met with one of our trays full force in his face. One of the cleaning crew had grabbed a tray and sent him careening right back over the counter. Just in time for a our usual officer to come in to witness this event. I look up to find the person who had just knocked this man over the counter with a plastic tray is our shortest member. A Four foot tall elder lady, her only words were. "Stupid people." With a shake of her head and she went back to work.
