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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, I found $20 in an old jacket and celebrated by buying myself a fancy lunch (well, Burger King, but that just goes to show how well I'm doing in this economy). When I got home, I realized I'd left my wallet at the restaurant while paying with the $20. 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, while using the restroom at McDonald's, a hand reached under my stall and took the remaining toilet paper. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

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.

#216 fails at reading comprehension. There's a trick to most McDonald's: right after you order and pay for you food, nonchalantly ask for the sauce you want, all most like an afterthought. This especially works if they're busy and will more likely work inside than through the drive-through. More often than not, the cashier will be too annoyed to ring it up. You can also wait and ask the person who brought your food to you, if they have a runner. And yes, I worked at McDonald's once upon a time.

You sound like the sort of person everyone is ashamed to be seen in public with if that's how you react to something as inane as this.

Wow, I'm sure the manager will be regretting his actions and making you pay for your food (what a jerk!) when he makes a staff member clean up the napkins. Grow up. And don't litter.

Wow mate, have a cry! YOU HAVE MONEY IN YOUR WALLET TO SPEND. That's the only reason it's bloody well in there. I've had customers like you, who think it's ok to try to wheedle money out of cashiers, even though it's not their money, even though it's a matter of their job v the inconvienience of carrying money around, even though a customer decides he wants to embarrass himself in front of everyone else. Get over it, kid. I don't know what a six year old is doing with a $50 anyway.

Ya man YDI, it's $21 cents, geez #81 - There is no way that mcdonald's is "pretty healthy", have you looked at the calorie count and fat content of their food? That stuff is horrible! Subway is "pretty healthy"... not mcdonalds.

Today, I went to McDonalds and those bastards charged me for a big mac. In protest I made a homemade explosive and destroyed the building. But I left my big mac inside. FML.

"The jerk manager made me break a $50 bill." Uhh, no one made you break *any* bill. If you didn't want to break the 50, you could have just gone without the honey mustard.

Also, I would also think it should be more of an annoyance for the manager/cashier to break your $50 for 21 cents than for you to take the $50 out of your wallet and hand it to them. That's retarded that you feel breaking a large bill is such an inconvenience. I usually try not to break large bills for small change just because I usually feel bad for the cashier who has to give me all my change back.
