Today, while checking out a couple at work, I handed them their receipt and wished them a good day. The woman promptly pulled her husband to the side, and whispered to him about how much of a "fucking idiot" I was for making the prices so high. I work at McDonald's. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was at McDonald's. As I left the counter with the food, I heard the cashier mutter, "Fat ass." I turned around and demanded to see the manager. Once he came and heard the situation, he looked at me and said, "Well, it's not like he's wrong, right?" FML
Today, while I was working at McDonald's, a man and his wife ordered a Sundae. I gave the guy his sundae and realized I'd forgotten something. I said, "One second sir. Let me grab your nuts." I realized what I said when his wife gave me the death glare. FML
Today, I saw a man help an elderly lady with her tray at the local McDonald's. I wanted to do something nice for him, so I added a couple extra nuggets in his meal. He later came up to me and told me I was dumb and didn't know how to count, and that was why I was working at McDonald's. FML
Today, working at a fast food restaurant, I was berated by a customer for a good two minutes. It's okay though because she ended with, "Sorry, I forget you all are real people." FML
Today, I was working the drive-through at McDonald's. I greeted a customer with a, "Hi, how are you doing today?" His response: "Better than you." FML
Today, I was sitting in McDonald's. A lady came up to me and started complaining about the bad service, and asked for the manager. I told her that I didn't work there. "But you must, someone that fat has to work here!" FML
Today, at my new job, I took some food out to a customer. Walking away, I heard a lady mumble, "Oh my God, you could never pay me enough to wear that." FML
Today, at work I was trying to be nice and give a customer a discount because she was having trouble finding money to pay for her food. Everybody behind her then demanded a discount as well. FML
Today, I was at work at McDonald's, at the front counter when an elderly lady came up to me and whispered, "I just shit everywhere in your restroom," then turned around and walked out the door. FML
Today, while working at McDonald's, a woman returned to the drive thru because her fries weren't hot enough. She was so angry about coming back that she threw her cold fries at me through the window and told me to "choke on them." FML

Well, you do not deserve that at all. Be happy that you are not as stupid as this woman and know that McDonalds has only one prize everywhere and that the normal cashier cannot influence it.

... What a bitch. It's not like OP made the prices. I'm guessing they didnt order from the "$1 menu". Oh wait, that's probably too expensive as well. Shouldn't eat anything at all!

I hear that in the service industry, you have to be equipped to deal with a constant stream of "******* idiots" I couldn't deal with morons like that on a daily basis.

What smart person eats at macdonalds?

Not too surprising. People blame employees all the time. Ex: When my job's prices go up, I've had some say, "I can't believe "you" raised your prices!" As if I had something to do with it? Wonder who that woman blames at the gas pump? :P

for many many years humans have blamed the faces they see about something they're pissed about whether or not they had anything to do with it

I voted: I agree, your life sucks. Not for the story but for you working at McDonald's.

There are a hundred reason you would work there. Couldn't it possibly be a part-time job helping him pay for college?

i totally sympathise with this. i used to work in Harry Ramsden's (my fellow brits can vouch for how much of a rip off it is) and whenever the prices got put up i always got shouted at, people told me how disgusting 'my' company was and i can guarantee they'll never come back. the email complaints were the best; more often than not it would be a 3 page bleat on how when they were younger they ate at the original Harry's in Leeds and they wanted to show their grandchildren how delicious it was, only to have their hopes and dreams shattered when they paid 4 pounds for a piddly little bit of fish (read: they had ordered the small fish and chips meal deal) FYL OP

Are they not aware of the dollar menu?
RedPillSucks 33
Unless they ordered 10 things on the dollar menu and expected the bill to be a dollar. IDIOTS: What?! I ordered from the dollar menu and this came out to $12! How ******* expensive!!! OP: It says dollar menu. It doesn't say how many dollars. If you want to pay in Dinar, go a couple of blocks west.
