Today, I got threatened with a gun at the drive-thru, all because my coworker forgot to include extra fries in the guy's order. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got threatened with a gun through the drive thru speaker because I didn't offer some guy any pies to go with his meal. FML
Today, I ordered fries at a drive-thru, then drove away without paying. Realizing my mistake, I panicked and circled back, only to drive past the window again. The worker just stared at me as if I was pulling off the slowest robbery in history. FML
Today, when making a delivery for the restaurant I work for, a customer shoved and yelled at me because she didn't get any fries with her order. She didn't order any, which isn't unusual, considering we're a Chinese takeaway and don't even sell them. 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, 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 got yelled, screamed, and cursed at by a customer until I was reduced to tears. This was all because I double-checked to make sure she wanted large fries. FML
Today, a guy asked for hot fries at the drive thru. After receiving the fries, he threw them at the drive thru window, complained that they were too hot, and asked for the manager for burning his mouth. I am the manager. FML
Today, I was taking a table's order. After I finished, the guy told me, "Just FYI, I'm not a tipper." Trying to lighten up the situation, I replied, "It's amazing how many people forget I handle their food." He complained to the manager that I'd threatened him. FML
Today, a drive-thru customer ordered a deal that includes fries and a drink with the sandwich. When I gave it to her, she screamed at me because she "didn't order fries." When I brought up that the deal includes them, she told me I should have "figured it out," called me a "fugly fat slob," and sped off. FML
Today, my boyfriend came to my work, at a drive thru, in my car, and then got mad at me because I wouldn't give him free food. In his anger, he put my car in reverse and backed out of line very quickly, only to smash into a paying customer. FML

Minutes before the action went down: "Look, are you sure this is the pickup location? A drive-thru just seems weird." "Sure I'm sure. Just ask for 'extra fries'; they'll know what it means. Relax, I can't see any reason things would go wrong."

This is what happens when people get a drive-by confused with a drive-thru. Just wait until they hear about a drive-in.

Why would they get fired? If they got fired for being threatened at gun point, I'd be really surprised.

I mean, what is a burger without fries? You obviously had it coming, OP. Don't you know you have to watch every single move your coworkers make?

I'm guessing they won't be messing up on any order for a loong time.

"This is a stick up. Just put the fries in the bag, and we all walk away!"

This explains so much. Last time I asked for extra special sauce, I got a half pound of cocaine between the buns. It was the greatest burger ever, but the bill was outrageous.

You two together are the perfect commenters. I am never disappointed.

There was like a mcdonalds worker in Oregon who did that but they had to ask for a kids meal toy and she'd basically sell heroine through the drive thru

The customer was pretty hangry it sounds like. But honestly, what was this guy on that made him think that doing that was totally OK. fyl indeed.

Now that's a very extreme case of drive through experience!
