Today, a customer yelled, "I'll bash your fuckin' face in, cunt" at me at 9:30am because we don't serve the lunch menu at breakfast time. Yes, the 15-year-old girl in high school is responsible for McDonald's entire menu. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
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, I placed an order at a fast food joint, when the elderly lady behind me cussed me out for ordering the same thing she wanted. She ranted that I was a "dirty thief", while everyone else glared at me as if I was holding up the line. What the fuck? FML
Today, as the manager of a McDonald's, I had to ask a group of high school kids to calm down after several complaints from other guests. Their rational response was to pour soda on my head and throw burgers at me. Upon returning from chasing them out, I sprained my foot. FML
Today, while at McDonald's, I saw an 8 year-old girl licking a life-size Ronald McDonald sitting on a bench. Being concerned, I told her mother, who then yelled at me for 10 minutes for being a "paedophile" and "being turned on by an 8 year-old girl." FML
Today, as usual, I worked at McDonald's. Although I tried to diffuse the situation, an old man was absolutely furious, and punched me in the face over BBQ sauce. FML
Today, my mom was "that" customer at the local drive-thru. She slipped into attention whore mode and bitched the guy out for not giving us extra fries. He said she didn't ask for any, which was true. Instead of apologizing, she swore at him and floored the gas, sending our drinks spilling all over me. FML
Today, a customer wanted corporate's number because we aren't allowed to sell pies after midnight. After a drug-fuelled cuss-storm, she punched me in the face through the open window, then peeled out of drive-thru like a bat out of hell. FML
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
Today, at Burger King, I was coming back from break. A customer screamed at me because she ordered a double cheeseburger without pickles, and they were put on anyway. She threw it in my face. My face was covered in ketchup mustard and pickle. Did I mention I was on a break and had nothing to do with this? FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I think every person should have to work in customer service before they die..

Translation of sammiking's comment: "I feel like an idiot for making an obvious comment, and I feel like an even bigger idiot for then clarifying my obvious comment, so now I'm going to do exactly what the customer in the story did and go completely apeshit to cover up my needless frustration and make myself look like an asshole."

Unreasonable troublesome

breakfast food > normal menu at all times of the day, they should extend the breakfast menu all day

I believe I read an article once stating they were using a few specific locations as trial runs for breakfast all day, to see if it's profitable. I wish I lived in those locations.

I work at McDonald's too so I feel you. I get yelled at a lot because some McDonald's apparently started serving breakfast all day but the one I work at didn't.

No wonder you have 89 submitted FMLs. Customers in McDonalds must be difficult to handle

Oh trust me they are

So sorry, OP! That was totally uncalled for.

Don't get upset she's probably on her period
Poppy_buchanan 15
That's right, because they couldn't have been a dick or anything so let's blame it on the period.

I feel you. I work at McDonald too and one time while working overnights I got yelled at by a customer at 4 in the morning because we weren't allowed to serve her a big mac because we started serving breakfast at 4 but we couldn't change the outside menu to our breakfast menu due to safety reasons. Sometimes customers can just be an ass and sometimes they aren't.

I take it people like that customer were the "safety reasons."

If you don't change your menu, you kind of deserve some grief.

I hate to break it to you, but not serving lunch foods when you display them is considered false advertisement.

Should file a complaint with the FTC that McDs is false advertising by not subjecting their employees to being outside in the dark behind a building in a bad part of town to flip a piece of plastic around.

Now I'm not sure whose rule it is for us not allowed outside after hours either its corporate itself or the owner. But overnight usually has three employees working. A manger and two crew member. We were not allowed outside due to either getting rob easily or something bad could happen to us in the dark. Menus aren't allowed to be changed till 6 in the morning when the rest of the morning crew gets in.

Get them mc banned

I second that. No one should get away with using that kind of language in a place where little kids and grown ups are trying to get their greasy food and plastic toys in peace!
tranced_ 45
I'd be pissed about that as well!
