15 things to keep in mind when going through the Drive Thru
May 30, 2008 17:56
You don't need to specify that your order is 'To-Go'. We don't usually hand food out the window on a tray.
Just because I work at a fast-food restaurant doesn't mean I am stupid.
Don't shout it distorts your voice.
We don't repeat your order to hear ourselves talk, we honestly want to make sure we have it correct. Please listen, if you pull up to the window and complain when your food is wrong, it's not our fault, you're the one who didn't correct the mistake when we repeated the order.
Please order by size, it helps a LOT!!
Hollering "hello" the second you pull up to the menu board is just plain rude.
Please roll your window down. I can't hear through glass.
Driving through DT in reverse because the driver is too lazy to order is just plain confusing.
Please have the person sitting in the drivers seat order, it's very difficult to hear anyone else.
Please don't talk on your cell phone, I can't see you and it's hard to know if you are talking to me or not.
Please don't let all your frustration out on the DT person, chances are you're not the only one who's having a bad day. Some days every other person through the DT is having a bad day and they let it all out on the DT person. It gets really discouraging! Especially when you are doing your job right.
If you order a Medium Pepsi. That means you want a Pepsi to drink. It doesn't mean Root Beer or Mountain Dew, or any other beverage.
I am not a computer therefore I do not function like one. I promise.
Please don't pull ahead while I am still talking to you. You wouldn't walk away if we were talking face to face, would you?
