Tantrum

I have a huge party that I'm planning at work today

HUGE

it's the big show for the whole year and guess who's in charge?

Yeah -- the girl that is now and will forever be "STRIVING for Peace"

easy to forget sometimes that's what SFP stands for

So yesterday -- after I spent the day troubleshooting the electrical supply for the Bounce House and discovered that the Sno Cone Machine that we own is gone -- missing -- disappeared - -not to mention that someone put the cotton candy machine away filthy 3 YEARS ago

oh

and someone's been eating food that I've bought for the event

Bastards

where was I -- oh yeah

so Yesterday after all of this -- I needed to go get 8 cakes for the cake walk as well as a few other things -- and I realized I hadn't eatten in 7 hours -- I pulled into McDonalds

"I would like a #14 with no Cheese"

"What?"

"No Cheese -- a #14 with no cheese"

"ha ha - double cheese? -- I'll make one with extra cheese - -ha ha"

"No, NO Cheese.  Last time I ordered it came with cheese - -I hate cheese -- NO Cheese"

I pull around

get my food -- and discover it has cheese

"This has cheese"

"oh - sorry"

they disappear and bring me a burger

I check it

and they've pulled off some of the cheese

not all the cheese

just the part of the cheese that hadn't melted onto the burger

which wasn't much -- because the burger wasn't all that hot.

and

um

I flipped.

I said something like "You should make a NEW burger"

which wouldn't be that bad except that I had pulled a bit of the cheese off the burger and was waggling it at this poor kid out my window - -and

um

he might have had the impression that I flung the bit of cheese at him.

yeah.

um

total tantrum

I can never eat at McDonalds again

not just that one

ANY McDonalds

I'm a cheese flinging crazed wackadoo

    What's the company that says"special orders don't upset us". But they do enjoy upsetting those who are silly enough to expect them to be filled as ordered.

    I am beginning to think you and I work at the same place, but no, we can't afford a bounce house this year... other than that, stolen snow cone machine, check, dirty cotton candy machine check, sneaky larcenous bastards that think nobody will notice or mind if they rip into a few chip bags... double check. Do you work at a school????

    And I know you didn't REALLY throw the cheese... that incompetent person had to be mistaken or worse, hallucinating.

    Good post, I was laughing out loud.

    I saw her. She threw the cheese. Hit the kid at the window. Missed him with the burger though. Number 14 with the cheese half pulled off. Tsk.

    Btw. I should tell you I think I went to the same McD's last spring.

    I ordered a Big Mac with no cheese and extra pickles. When it arrived it had no pickles and extra cheese. When I returned it the girl at the counter was quite huffy, but took it back. I got the same one back again where they had peeled off most of the cheese, but still no pickles. I opened it right at the cash, said not good enough, I want a new one.

    17 year old Ashley flounced off to order me another, clearly quite annoyed that I was making her do this.

    And I didn't throw the cheese at her, but it's an idea for next time.
