Miscellaneous: Today, McDonalds charged me 21 cents for a honey mustard packet....

Today, McDonalds charged me 21 cents for a honey mustard packet. The jerk manager made me break a $50 bill. So I grabbed all their napkins, carried them into the parking lot and tossed them all into the air in protest and drove off. Down the road, I realized I left my wallet at the counter. FML

Today, after a long day at work, I was starving, so I stopped by the drive-through for something to eat. When I got home and hurriedly opened the bag, all I found inside was napkins. Thanks, McDonald's. FML

Today, I walked to my local McDonald's. I spent the last 7 dollars I had on my meal. As I began to walk back to my dorm, I was mugged. I explained to them I had no money, so they stole my food. FML

Today, while working at McDonald's a car full of obnoxious teens came through. They had made a $30 order, and handed me a tin of small change, claiming that on a McDonald's ad they saw that we, employees, liked counting change. I had to count out $30 in spare change during a rush period at work. FML

Today, I went to McDonald's to get breakfast. I sat my food down at a table and went to get some napkins and a straw. I returned to the table to find that my food was gone, and could hear nothing but "SUCKKAAAA" trailing from the entrance to the restaurant. Some jerk stole my meal. FML

Today, I went to a restaurant and only brought $14 with me to eat. I ordered and ate my meal, then went to the counter to pay for it. I threw $2 into the tip jar then got my bill. My bill was $13.86. I had to reach into the tip jar and take my $2 back so I could pay for my meal. FML

Today, a customer came into McDonalds and placed his order. He insisted on putting each coin on the counter rather than handing them straight to me, because he doesn't like touching "poor people". FML

Today, my mother resolved to never visit McDonald's again. Not because of ethics or health concerns, but because they charged her for extra barbecue sauce. She bitched out the man in the drive-through for a good five minutes, while I sat awkwardly in the passenger's seat. FML

Today, after a long, horrible day at work and some fighting with my family and my girlfriend, I decided to cheer myself up by going to McDonald's for a change. I burst into tears when the cashier told me they couldn't make me a Mars McFlurry because they'd run out of ingredients. FML

Today, some friends and I went to IHOP. We joked about not having enough money, and as it turns out we were $5 short. We put down what we had and left. Upon getting to the car, I realized I'd forgotten my phone, and had to go back. I made eye contact with our waitress, our money in her hand. FML

That's pathetic. Seriously. I know the manager was being an arse, but that doesn't mean you should act the same. You should carry some friggin change on you. Who walks around with just $50s then gets pissy about it?

How about you skip the honey mustard? What is wrong with you? And you acted like a baby on top of it. Way to go, slick.

I work at McDonald's and we can get fired for handing out packets for free. Don't blame the manager for doing their job. If it's so important to you, carry around smaller change before ordering out and you wouldn't run into problems such as breaking a fifty. You waste a lot of time and money by throwing huge scenes such as these. And since you're the one who asked for the Honey Mustard packet anyways, how is it the managers fault when they are charging you for something that you asked for? Please grow up.

They charge you for packets because some ghetto white trash idiots and college students hoard them and keep them in a drawer at home. Or, homeless people would take ketchup, pepper, hot water and make themselves free soup. So yes, they have to charge for that. If you don't like breaking $50, there's a simple concept out there called ASKING FOR SMALLER BILLS when you cash your check. Wow. And you deserved to leave your wallet behind just for being an ass. I'd be like, "Sure, you can have your wallet - show your ID first. Oops. You can't do that, can you?" Or, I'll be like, "oh .... no, I thought ... shit, this guy/girl came in here and I thought it was you ... I'm sorry." Then I'd keep all the money.

Unfortunately, while I realize your post was facetious, the "oh, you can't show your ID" part wouldn't really work, assuming they keep photo ID in there ;)

I like it, but after this person threw all the napkins over 21 cents... imagine what he'd do over a missing wallet? Tear off the wallpaper, probably

What makes you think you shouldn't have to break a $50? Like the rest of us lowlife's have to, but you are above that. Get over yourself. Instant karma at your service

I have to say... without protest some good changes would never happen. sauce comes free with nuggets man. maybe the manager will think twice next time. that was bad business. I personally wouldn't have done that but I'm kinda glad he did. I wouldn't have a problem with the charge even though I thought it was wrong and stupid but he protests and I like that. stick it to the man. rage against the machine. thanks to people like him the American people are not oppressed. the blacks and women have rights. sauce comes free.
