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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, 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, my mom opens at McDonald's, and I go with her to chill before walking to the bus stop. The lobby was closed. I had to shit so bad, I was knocking on the door, and usually they let me in, but nobody noticed. I had to shit so incredibly bad. so… I went into the car and found an old McDonald's cup and some napkins… FML
Today, I opened my front door to see that someone else's McDonald's was delivered to me overnight, but the food was all moldy. The one time I get free food… FML
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 and exhausting day at work, I had no energy to do much of anything, so with that in mind, I got Arby's on the way home. When I did get home and was trying to carry the bag inside, it ripped open and spilled my food all over the driveway. FML
Today, while using the restroom at McDonald's, a hand reached under my stall and took the remaining toilet paper. FML
Today, after stopping to pick up dinner at a fast food joint, I got a nosebleed. I immediately reached into the bag to grab napkins and began stuffing them up my nose, only to find out too late that a mustard packet had burst in the bag. FML
Today, I was waiting for my food at McDonald's. I watched the most obese, sweaty man sneeze into the chips, wipe his nose on his hand and use his hand to shovel chips into a bag. They were my chips. FML
Today, I was exhausted after a long day at work and didn't feel like cooking so I went to a drive thru. I placed my order, went to the window and paid. I then drove off without my food and didn't realize it for a couple of blocks. I was too embarrassed to go back and get it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

This is why you check to make sure they got your order right before you leave!

You don't eat half the bag of chips/fries on the drive home?

Unlucky! Ronald McDonald was probably fooling around in the kitchen and decided to play one of his clown tricks on your order... "For my next trick, I will make this greasy meal disappear and replace it with... Paper!"

Those must have been some heavy napkins.

They never get orders right! They usually just give me the wrong order.

Sometimes it's just utter bullshit just like what OP got. I once ordered a burger. What I get? The bread. Just bread

the food itself is utter bullshit.

Phone the store and explain what happened. They'll give you a free meal voucher and refund/replace your meal.

YDI for not checking ALWAYS CHECK!

I'm thinking the same thing, besides the fact that napkins obviously won't weigh enough to make the bag heavy or appear full...
Drake_The_Dragon 23
Yes, exactly.

This is why I never use the drive-thru in any place. And when I go in to order, I'm the asshole who stands at the counter and watches them put my order together. The few times I didn't do that, my order got messed up. You are dealing with people who are getting paid pretty crappy, who really don't care about their job, and just as soon leave when there is a long line because shift is up in 10 minutes. And I'm not saying that to insult the workers at fast food places, I'm saying this because how crappy it is to work there. So I go in, stand watch my order be made, that way I make a scenario in which it would be more hassle to screw my order up than to take the care to make it right. The drive thru, however, creates a barrier in which they don't have to really deal with you face to face.

So your the piece of shit i always wanna throat punch cus your standing over my shoulder acting like i dont know how to read or put a puzzle together......id **** your order up on purpose just to piss you off, itd make me laugh deep down inside ******

That is true. I had several customers do something similar. It really isn't a bad idea. The only fast food workers that should take offense to what you said are: the workers that are guilty of not caring about there work, nor the satisfaction of the customer. The ones that have no pride in doing something right, no matter the pay rate. That is one of the many reasons why I left McDonalds and pursued other things.

ah 54, it doesn't appear you can read or put a puzzle together. ******* people over because they have to watch you due to your own demonstrated incompetence isn't at all funny. if you get filled with so much rage that you want to "throat punch" the "piece of shit" and "**** up their order just to piss them off and laugh deep down inside" because they have to babysit you because you're too vapid to put a patty between a bun and toss it in a bag, you should learn how to do your job or find another one. "******."

McDonald's actually has a higher pay rate than most places, around here anyway.

#21 maccas workers dont get paid pretty crappy. they get paid pretty decently. i would know, i am one of them. and i dont think its crappy to work at maccas. sometimes its bad, yeah. but more often than not, it is not that bad. i care about my job. & all the people i know who have worked at maccas will stay and help past the end of their shift for a few minutes until the long line is gone - its all up to the manager when people leave.

I can certainly understand why people watch, and a lot of them have every reason to! When I worked at mcdonalds, the thing I hated most about were asshole customers, though. I thought it was a pretty fun job and I tried my best, otherwise. Even the pay wasn't bad! But, when you have to take a break because a customer reduces you to tears over shit your coworkers do, well... Then it sucks. And it makes you horribly nervous of the watching customers. They're like time bombs, ready to explode at the slightest wrong-doing. Is it an effective way to get your meal right? Absolutely! Just be careful about who you do it to! Now, if the workers are complete shit and not nervous bunnies like me, then by all means be an asshole to them. Not everyone who works in fast food is some unsung hero of the working class, people! Some just genuinely are morons.
