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

College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
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

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.

Who cares if you have a broken up $50 in your wallet. What's the problem??? Why did you get mad because you had to PAY for something? Things aren't free in this world dumbass. And just cause u have a "big" bill that you don't want to break doesn't mean the manager is gonna say "oh well in that case, I'll just give it to you for free." YDI. And if I were the person at the counter at mcd's I woulda stole your money out your wallet that u left and then claimed "what money?" haha!

You really needed the mustard that bad? If you didn't want to break your $50 bill, you definitely didn't need the mustard.

I've worked at McDonald's for 3 years. It's policy to charge for the nugget sauce packets. It isn't cheap! It's not the store's fault that McDonald's said to start charging for sauce, and your littering the napkins around did nothing but cost that store more money, and make some poor, minimum wage worker spend who knows how long outside cleaning up the mess you made over 21 cents. Congratulations, jerk. I hope they kept your wallet.

When they try to charge me for stuff I shouldn't be, I demand to see the manager and if they still say no I hold up the line. A cup of tap water is free!

We can actually be fired for handing out free sauces, tyvm. Some do it anyway but the rest of us don't want 2 get in trouble.

Although I enjoyed your enthusiasm, I'm going to have to ask you to not litter. The planet shouldn't suffer because mcdonalds suck.
