Speaker 1 (00:01):
Well, guys, I ran into a situation yesterday that I
honestly thought the universe was playing a joke on me. Oh,
at one point, I go, is this karma? But then
I went karma. I didn't do anything the first time, like,
why would this be karma? It didn't. It didn't make
any sense to me what happened to me. So yesterday
(00:23):
was a weird day. Yesterday we got donuts, thank you,
and so I ate a pretty hefty one. It was
like a bigger donut. I think it was from donut bars,
so it was. It was one of those giant ones.
And so I ate a big donut early and then
I never got hungry again. Usually we eat breakfast in
here about nine and I was not hungry and I
(00:44):
didn't even think about it. And then after the show,
I had a meeting that I had to go to,
So I didn't get to eat all day, all morning long,
except for that one donut.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
That'll catch up with it, and it did.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
It did. So after I was done with my meeting
and everything was wrapped up, I was like, I got
to get some of the eat, Like this is not
great for me, and so you know, I decide, you know,
what quick, easy, I'll just go swing through McDonald's. And
I thought this would be great, you know, super easy.
And I didn't want to eat like a giant meal
because you know, I was about to take a nap.
(01:16):
That whole thing. It was just weird. And so I go,
you know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna go with
a double cheeseburger and a small fry and I'll be good.
That'll be a perfect little small fry.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
What are you a child?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Only a child? Can you eat small fries?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Like I yeah, because the paper, the paper makes me
feel like a little baby.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
H the paper. The paper's an issue.
Speaker 5 (01:39):
And then also just the fact that I don't know
if this is just me. I mean I think in
this room we've pretty much agreed that McDonald's has some
of the top fries.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Wait, why why see that? Why why put it that way?
Why not just say they're the best? Well, I know
it was like I don't want to give any credit.
That's what she was doing, right, kind of right, because
obviously they're the best fries. Everybody we always say that.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Okay, well here, wait, why.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Did you have to put it like that?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Because I didn't want to start a fight in the room.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
I thought that because I thought this one over here
Thorific had said that he likes other kinds of I.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Like the McDonald's. I don't like their nuggets.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Oh you're a Wendy's nugget.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Donalds are yeah, okay, okay, so we all agree in
the room they are the favorite.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
He's in a rough place right now.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
It's not okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I mean, I don't need to attackacking.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
My order, attacking my fries.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
I'm just saying I would, even no matter how minimally
hungry I am, I would never go small fry, like
I feel like small fry would never be enough eat.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
How often do you eat a McDonald's So not very often,
right right? I eat there more than you. So I
when I get a normal order, I'll just get like
a big mac combo, which is medium, okay, And so
it's not something that I crave all the time.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
I have to because I get as special as it is.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I get it enough where I'm okay.
Speaker 6 (02:57):
Yeah, I'm with you, Like I would get a bigger
fry just because I don't go there all the time.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
Totally understand that, Like Honestly, even if I'm not eating
the fry, I feel like I have to get a
bigger fry.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Sorry, well, and I don't need to, you know. So well,
here's what was really crazy. So I don't I didn't
want to eat that much, and so small fry, double chi.
I'm good. So I pulled into the draft through. I'm stoked.
Nobody's there. I'm the only car. I'm like, this is
great and I'm starving. So I order my order double cheeseburger,
(03:29):
small fry, and the you know how that comes up
on the order thing. Now, like I'm stunned.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
What.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
I don't know what happened. Remember those two items, those
two items used to be on the dollar menu. Okay,
I know that that doesn't exist anymore, but I okay,
I still think it's going to be on the cheaper side.
You know it's going to be cheaper.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Yeah, absolutely, I don't know how much.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
You don't know how much the double cheeseburger cost me
five ninety nine, shut up, small fries three ninety nine.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Oh my god, you might as well just got a meal.
And that's why I don't know. The whole reason you
went to fast food was because it was cheap and easy.
Now it's I'd rather just either a make it at
home or B go to a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Legit, you could get an entrede restaurant for nineteen bucks.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah. I could not believe.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
It's a combination of inflation and having to pay they're
actually having to pay their employees.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Now.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
No, I will say, you're right. I will say, you know,
every McDonald's price is their own way, So there could
be a different price at a different one. But that
was the one I went to. How much was it
when you were working there? It was a dollar, just
one dollar, one dollar because we had the dollar menu. Yeah,
and so you could get a double cheeseburger, which was
a rare order. Like nobody ordered the double cheeseburger everywhere.
(04:49):
I remember when back in the day somebody would order
the double cheeseburger. I was like, oh, oh you judge,
not judge, but like surprised.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Why everybody going Big Mac.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, if you went Cheeseberry, you'd get the two cheeseburger.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I get the two cheeseburger meal ya.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Which is the number two?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Yeah, which everyone else.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
It's great, it's great. I think they moved it. I
don't think it's two anymore. I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
It's nine or something.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
It's down there anyway, And so I didn't want to
eat two burgers for some reason. One it's the same
thing because it's double cheese. He's stacked on each other.
Made sense in my brain. And then I look over
and like five ninety nine, I couldn't like, I couldn't
believe it. But I was like, listen, it is what
it is. I'm in it. Whatever. So I go, you know,
(05:41):
I pay. I pull up to the next window, and
I'm getting ready and a younger guy is working the
drive through. Respect Is he fifteen? No man, No, I
was when I worked there. But he's on the younger
side for sure. And he goes, he, you know, says
ask me if I wanted any ketchup or anything.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
I said, no, I'm good, good customer service because I
know you okay.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Because you asked me if I need ketchup? You know
that's that doesn't ever happen. That's good, okay, okay. And
then he goes, uh, sorry, sir, you're gonna have to
pull forward. And I went what I ordered a double
cheeseburger and small fries.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
No special order on the cheeseburger.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
These things to be sitting on the under the lamp
for the last twenty five minutes.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Even even now, they don't they don't do that, really.
They they make them pretty quickly. And there's nobody behind me,
and there was nobody in front of me, So why
are you pulling? I have no idea, I don't know
they know who you are. I don't know. Well, and
then they go, you know you're gonna have to before
and it's it's literally in front of the drive through
where the where the first stall thing is, the first
(06:54):
pull forward thing is. So it's not that big of
a deal. I mean, I would either be sitting at
the drive through way to or I'd be sitting there,
So okay, but I don't even really question it.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
Oh yeah, I'm thinking it's easier as the employee to
have you just stay there so I don't have to
run it outside if no one's behind us.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
That's what was confused.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Yeah, what's the problem.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I don't understand what's going on.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Maybe God needs to get a stand as.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
I'm as I'm sitting, you know, waiting, I'm confused, definitely confused,
and I'm wondering, like why did I have to pull forward, Like,
I don't understand, okay, but whatever, it is what it is.
I'm just starving and i want my food at this point,
so I'm trying not to be angry. It is what
it is. So i'd say, you know, a solid four
minutes go by or somewhere around there, you know, And
then they finally it was a decent amount of time.
(07:38):
It wasn't like real quick. And I'm looking behind me
and still no cars in the cars, no cars, and
I'm like, this is is definitely weird. He comes out,
brings out my food and you go and I have
to ask. I'm like, how come I had to pull forward?
Speaker 5 (07:51):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Because there's no special order. There's nobody behind me. And
he goes, oh, sorry, we were waiting on fries. I
got a least. I'm getting hot, fresh, live, and so
that made me feel good and I went, okay, whatever,
and I had the you know, tiny little bag because
that's the only two things I got.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Where's your child?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
He didn't care, and so it wasn't sky. So I
started to before and I'm going to eat as I
drive because I'm starving, and so I pulled forward out
of the thing and I start to turn around and
I get my double chie out and I take it,
unwrap it, and I just start crushing it. Oh you
go double chi first, Like, well, I know the fries
(08:34):
are red hot.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Okay, I always have to what I normally, so I okay,
but you know.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
What I know. I know. I know the game, man, Okay,
it just came out piping hot.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Be so excited to eat the pipe.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
You're gonna do.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Hot?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I had to drink either.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Oh, this is sketchy.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
So I know I'm listening. I playing the game. I'm
playing the game. This is my first road of the game. Okay.
So I got to get something in me, gotta get
that protein in. And so I start crushing the double
g I get halfway done, and I go, okay, I
think I'm safe to touch the sculling fries. Now here
we go.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
And you're probably excited too, because you know this fresh patch.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Oh I bet they're extra salty because they're like, I
don't know why I feel that way.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
All these things are going through my yes. Yes, So
I reach into the bag, pull it out, and I
am horrified, absolutely horrified of what I just see. So
they are piping hot Okay they are. They look wonderfully salted.
But when I look into the bag, I went, you're
you're messing with me right, Like, what's going on? I
(09:37):
look down in the small fry bag and see that
my fries are halfway filled.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Oh damn.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Which if you don't know my famous story on which
I don't know how you couldn't at this point when
I was working at McDonald's in the drift, when I
was fifteen years.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Old, you did you me finished?
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Sorry?
Speaker 1 (10:02):
I had French fries thrown in my face from a
guy who, yes, somebody else bagged.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
The order with somebody else.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
He would come in every day. He had a special order.
He was a jerk to me every time.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
But you were a little it wasn't cock was a
little cocky.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
He was a jerk to me. He had a special order.
In fact, I was afraid of him because he was
like a gangster.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
How would you tell pull forward?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Sorry, sir, we're gonna have to pufore cocky. It's not cocky.
I was very scared. Uh, And he would get pissed
every single time. This one particular time he had to
pull forward, he threw a fit. Somebody else bags the order,
and they ran it out to him. He comes stormy
back in, kicks the door in. That's not a joke,
he really did kick. No, he's an old stole Mexican gangster,
(10:51):
so he was not I don't remember what the shoe
type was thirty years ago. And he was so mad
that this person half filled his fry bag, which was
a paper thing back then. You know. Yeah, and oh god,
in my face, throw it in my face and you
(11:12):
went down and I went down like a sack of potatoes,
no pun intended. Yeah, yeah, and yeah yeah, and so
that that left me scarred for life. Yeah, literally literally
for life.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
No, Like I think within the first year of meeting Eddie,
I was made well aware. Hey, I can joke about
whatever you want, like I'm I'm a fun guy, pranks whatever.
I have one hot button and it is throwing food
if you like throw food. He like, he it's it's
his one hot button. Like, you can't do it, don't
(11:44):
ever try it because I I don't know. Well, you know,
we do stupid stuff in here. Yeah, yeah, just let
me know. Boundaries are It's good to know. It was
good to know.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
So I glanced down after I was told to pull forward.
I didn't feel like I they needed to order nothing,
and I waited and then I get my bag of
fries and it's half filled.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Full full circle moment.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
Here.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
It really was how you have a choice to me,
But I'm are you going to go in there, kick
the door and throw.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
I'm pissed because I'm starving and I had to pull
forward aad weight and all these things. So I sort
of get it, but I'm also like, wow, do I
go in and actually do what I've been talking about
all these years?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Like I'm watching a true crime Netflix documentary where the
victim is now in the similar situation and it's a
full circle moment and they need to realize they're they're
kind of having empathy for the for the killer.
Speaker 5 (12:39):
Well, they're contemplating their whole entire life, know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (12:43):
What I mean?
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yeah, Because he's like, now I get it, Yeah, he
gets it.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Yeah, Wow, I listen. I don't get throwing a bag
of fries at a fifteen year old.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
You don't understand that, So you don't get that. I
feel like, but you could wrap your mind around the anger. Yes, okay,
I did rage. I do understand you still would assault
a fifteen year old.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
No small fry, half a small.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Fry, probably seven. That is sad. That a sign it
was not good. It was not a good It was
bad guy. And especially if you make me wait for
the fries. You gotta fill that thing. Oh yeah, I
know the rules. Man fill so some ton spill in
the bottom of that.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
You're probably thinking, it's this isn't the guy that took
my order because he didn't cook it.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
So the guy that took my order, who I talked
to him paid for is the same guy that ran
out the order. I wasn't that guy. I took the
order and then somebody else ran.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
So do you think he could have bet he could
have filled the fries too.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Oh wow, here's the thing.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
The other thing I'm kind of and all these things
are going through my head is like, it's it's noon, Yeah,
it's noon. How fries? Why are we waiting on fries?
What's going on there? Oh? Do I need to get
in there?
Speaker 6 (14:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Oh you're going back?
Speaker 1 (14:07):
What the hell is going on?
Speaker 6 (14:07):
You should be cracking those things out. They should never
have fries that are available.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
It's it's rush hour even though there were no cars.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
And what are we doing here, and you're far away
with this, so you started eating the burger already, so
you're like, you're.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
I'm still in the parking lot. I could put that
puppy apart and walk in and be like, hey, fill
these fries up.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
It could be that now that fries are fifteen dollars,
they you know, they hold off on me if I'm.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Paying, if I'm paying more, I should get the full amount.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Well you should, But I'm just saying why they're not ready?
You know what I mean. We can't.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
We can't mess around and waste fries in this economy
because now that they're like fifteen million.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I don't think that's so You're.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Right, they should be ready to.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Go, and so I just go. I guess this is
just the universe just laughing at me, and I just
have to accept it about time.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
Or you can look at it like this is the
unif are showing you, you know what, you made a
choice to be the better man.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Look at you.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
That is true.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
You were challenged by the universe, and.
Speaker 4 (15:07):
You showed you.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
Would have thrown I wouldn't have thrown fries, but I
would have marched in there and gone, what the hell's
up with this?
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Bro?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Oh Philip drop.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Is people like you? Man, I hated people like you.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Yeah, they're the worst.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
They're the worst. Mistake, it was a mistake. You don't
need to yell.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
At come on, you've never made a mistake.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
Only I'd walk in there and I'd be calm at first.
I'd walk in there and be, hey, my fries, Aren't
I get some more fries? That's how I'd say. And
if they were like annoyed, then I'd get annoyed. Yeah,
and then I'd be like, hey, whoa, what's the attitude
for you? Ned to fill up my fries?
Speaker 1 (15:47):
But it would be a thought, you would think throwing.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Fifteen year old punks, you know, the year old punk
learned a lessons assistant manager.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
So it happened to me. Powers happened to me, Man, ridiculous.
This sucks
Well, guys, I ran into a situation yesterday that I
honestly thought the universe was playing a joke on me. Oh,
at one point, I go, is this karma? But then
I went karma. I didn't do anything the first time, like,
why would this be karma? It didn't. It didn't make
any sense to me what happened to me. So yesterday
(00:23):
was a weird day. Yesterday we got donuts, thank you,
and so I ate a pretty hefty one. It was
like a bigger donut. I think it was from donut bars,
so it was. It was one of those giant ones.
And so I ate a big donut early and then
I never got hungry again. Usually we eat breakfast in
here about nine and I was not hungry and I
(00:44):
didn't even think about it. And then after the show,
I had a meeting that I had to go to,
So I didn't get to eat all day, all morning long,
except for that one donut.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
That'll catch up with it, and it did.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
It did. So after I was done with my meeting
and everything was wrapped up, I was like, I got
to get some of the eat, Like this is not
great for me, and so you know, I decide, you know,
what quick, easy, I'll just go swing through McDonald's. And
I thought this would be great, you know, super easy.
And I didn't want to eat like a giant meal
because you know, I was about to take a nap.
(01:16):
That whole thing. It was just weird. And so I go,
you know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna go with
a double cheeseburger and a small fry and I'll be good.
That'll be a perfect little small fry.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
What are you a child?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Only a child? Can you eat small fries?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Like I yeah, because the paper, the paper makes me
feel like a little baby.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
H the paper. The paper's an issue.
Speaker 5 (01:39):
And then also just the fact that I don't know
if this is just me. I mean I think in
this room we've pretty much agreed that McDonald's has some
of the top fries.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Wait, why why see that? Why why put it that way?
Why not just say they're the best? Well, I know
it was like I don't want to give any credit.
That's what she was doing, right, kind of right, because
obviously they're the best fries. Everybody we always say that.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Okay, well here, wait, why.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Did you have to put it like that?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Because I didn't want to start a fight in the room.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
I thought that because I thought this one over here
Thorific had said that he likes other kinds of I.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Like the McDonald's. I don't like their nuggets.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Oh you're a Wendy's nugget.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Donalds are yeah, okay, okay, so we all agree in
the room they are the favorite.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
He's in a rough place right now.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
It's not okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I mean, I don't need to attackacking.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
My order, attacking my fries.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
I'm just saying I would, even no matter how minimally
hungry I am, I would never go small fry, like
I feel like small fry would never be enough eat.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
How often do you eat a McDonald's So not very often,
right right? I eat there more than you. So I
when I get a normal order, I'll just get like
a big mac combo, which is medium, okay, And so
it's not something that I crave all the time.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
I have to because I get as special as it is.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I get it enough where I'm okay.
Speaker 6 (02:57):
Yeah, I'm with you, Like I would get a bigger
fry just because I don't go there all the time.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
Totally understand that, Like Honestly, even if I'm not eating
the fry, I feel like I have to get a
bigger fry.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Sorry, well, and I don't need to, you know. So well,
here's what was really crazy. So I don't I didn't
want to eat that much, and so small fry, double chi.
I'm good. So I pulled into the draft through. I'm stoked.
Nobody's there. I'm the only car. I'm like, this is
great and I'm starving. So I order my order double cheeseburger,
(03:29):
small fry, and the you know how that comes up
on the order thing. Now, like I'm stunned.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
What.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
I don't know what happened. Remember those two items, those
two items used to be on the dollar menu. Okay,
I know that that doesn't exist anymore, but I okay,
I still think it's going to be on the cheaper side.
You know it's going to be cheaper.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Yeah, absolutely, I don't know how much.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
You don't know how much the double cheeseburger cost me
five ninety nine, shut up, small fries three ninety nine.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Oh my god, you might as well just got a meal.
And that's why I don't know. The whole reason you
went to fast food was because it was cheap and easy.
Now it's I'd rather just either a make it at
home or B go to a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Legit, you could get an entrede restaurant for nineteen bucks.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah. I could not believe.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
It's a combination of inflation and having to pay they're
actually having to pay their employees.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Now.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
No, I will say, you're right. I will say, you know,
every McDonald's price is their own way, So there could
be a different price at a different one. But that
was the one I went to. How much was it
when you were working there? It was a dollar, just
one dollar, one dollar because we had the dollar menu. Yeah,
and so you could get a double cheeseburger, which was
a rare order. Like nobody ordered the double cheeseburger everywhere.
(04:49):
I remember when back in the day somebody would order
the double cheeseburger. I was like, oh, oh you judge,
not judge, but like surprised.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Why everybody going Big Mac.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
No, if you went Cheeseberry, you'd get the two cheeseburger.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I get the two cheeseburger meal ya.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Which is the number two?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Yeah, which everyone else.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
It's great, it's great. I think they moved it. I
don't think it's two anymore. I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
It's nine or something.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
It's down there anyway, And so I didn't want to
eat two burgers for some reason. One it's the same
thing because it's double cheese. He's stacked on each other.
Made sense in my brain. And then I look over
and like five ninety nine, I couldn't like, I couldn't
believe it. But I was like, listen, it is what
it is. I'm in it. Whatever. So I go, you know,
(05:41):
I pay. I pull up to the next window, and
I'm getting ready and a younger guy is working the
drive through. Respect Is he fifteen? No man, No, I
was when I worked there. But he's on the younger
side for sure. And he goes, he, you know, says
ask me if I wanted any ketchup or anything.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
I said, no, I'm good, good customer service because I
know you okay.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Because you asked me if I need ketchup? You know
that's that doesn't ever happen. That's good, okay, okay. And
then he goes, uh, sorry, sir, you're gonna have to
pull forward. And I went what I ordered a double
cheeseburger and small fries.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
No special order on the cheeseburger.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
These things to be sitting on the under the lamp
for the last twenty five minutes.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Even even now, they don't they don't do that, really.
They they make them pretty quickly. And there's nobody behind me,
and there was nobody in front of me, So why
are you pulling? I have no idea, I don't know
they know who you are. I don't know. Well, and
then they go, you know you're gonna have to before
and it's it's literally in front of the drive through
where the where the first stall thing is, the first
(06:54):
pull forward thing is. So it's not that big of
a deal. I mean, I would either be sitting at
the drive through way to or I'd be sitting there,
So okay, but I don't even really question it.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
Oh yeah, I'm thinking it's easier as the employee to
have you just stay there so I don't have to
run it outside if no one's behind us.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
That's what was confused.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Yeah, what's the problem.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I don't understand what's going on.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Maybe God needs to get a stand as.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
I'm as I'm sitting, you know, waiting, I'm confused, definitely confused,
and I'm wondering, like why did I have to pull forward, Like,
I don't understand, okay, but whatever, it is what it is.
I'm just starving and i want my food at this point,
so I'm trying not to be angry. It is what
it is. So i'd say, you know, a solid four
minutes go by or somewhere around there, you know, And
then they finally it was a decent amount of time.
(07:38):
It wasn't like real quick. And I'm looking behind me
and still no cars in the cars, no cars, and
I'm like, this is is definitely weird. He comes out,
brings out my food and you go and I have
to ask. I'm like, how come I had to pull forward?
Speaker 5 (07:51):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Because there's no special order. There's nobody behind me. And
he goes, oh, sorry, we were waiting on fries. I
got a least. I'm getting hot, fresh, live, and so
that made me feel good and I went, okay, whatever,
and I had the you know, tiny little bag because
that's the only two things I got.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Where's your child?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
He didn't care, and so it wasn't sky. So I
started to before and I'm going to eat as I
drive because I'm starving, and so I pulled forward out
of the thing and I start to turn around and
I get my double chie out and I take it,
unwrap it, and I just start crushing it. Oh you
go double chi first, Like, well, I know the fries
(08:34):
are red hot.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Okay, I always have to what I normally, so I okay,
but you know.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
What I know. I know. I know the game, man, Okay,
it just came out piping hot.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Be so excited to eat the pipe.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
You're gonna do.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Hot?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I had to drink either.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Oh, this is sketchy.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
So I know I'm listening. I playing the game. I'm
playing the game. This is my first road of the game. Okay.
So I got to get something in me, gotta get
that protein in. And so I start crushing the double
g I get halfway done, and I go, okay, I
think I'm safe to touch the sculling fries. Now here
we go.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
And you're probably excited too, because you know this fresh patch.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Oh I bet they're extra salty because they're like, I
don't know why I feel that way.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
All these things are going through my yes. Yes, So
I reach into the bag, pull it out, and I
am horrified, absolutely horrified of what I just see. So
they are piping hot Okay they are. They look wonderfully salted.
But when I look into the bag, I went, you're
you're messing with me right, Like, what's going on? I
(09:37):
look down in the small fry bag and see that
my fries are halfway filled.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Oh damn.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Which if you don't know my famous story on which
I don't know how you couldn't at this point when
I was working at McDonald's in the drift, when I
was fifteen years.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Old, you did you me finished?
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Sorry?
Speaker 1 (10:02):
I had French fries thrown in my face from a
guy who, yes, somebody else bagged.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
The order with somebody else.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
He would come in every day. He had a special order.
He was a jerk to me every time.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
But you were a little it wasn't cock was a
little cocky.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
He was a jerk to me. He had a special order.
In fact, I was afraid of him because he was
like a gangster.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
How would you tell pull forward?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Sorry, sir, we're gonna have to pufore cocky. It's not cocky.
I was very scared. Uh, And he would get pissed
every single time. This one particular time he had to
pull forward, he threw a fit. Somebody else bags the order,
and they ran it out to him. He comes stormy
back in, kicks the door in. That's not a joke,
he really did kick. No, he's an old stole Mexican gangster,
(10:51):
so he was not I don't remember what the shoe
type was thirty years ago. And he was so mad
that this person half filled his fry bag, which was
a paper thing back then. You know. Yeah, and oh god,
in my face, throw it in my face and you
(11:12):
went down and I went down like a sack of potatoes,
no pun intended. Yeah, yeah, and yeah yeah, and so
that that left me scarred for life. Yeah, literally literally
for life.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
No, Like I think within the first year of meeting Eddie,
I was made well aware. Hey, I can joke about
whatever you want, like I'm I'm a fun guy, pranks whatever.
I have one hot button and it is throwing food
if you like throw food. He like, he it's it's
his one hot button. Like, you can't do it, don't
(11:44):
ever try it because I I don't know. Well, you know,
we do stupid stuff in here. Yeah, yeah, just let
me know. Boundaries are It's good to know. It was
good to know.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
So I glanced down after I was told to pull forward.
I didn't feel like I they needed to order nothing,
and I waited and then I get my bag of
fries and it's half filled.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Full full circle moment.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
Here.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
It really was how you have a choice to me,
But I'm are you going to go in there, kick
the door and throw.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
I'm pissed because I'm starving and I had to pull
forward aad weight and all these things. So I sort
of get it, but I'm also like, wow, do I
go in and actually do what I've been talking about
all these years?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Like I'm watching a true crime Netflix documentary where the
victim is now in the similar situation and it's a
full circle moment and they need to realize they're they're
kind of having empathy for the for the killer.
Speaker 5 (12:39):
Well, they're contemplating their whole entire life, know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (12:43):
What I mean?
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yeah, Because he's like, now I get it, Yeah, he
gets it.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Yeah, Wow, I listen. I don't get throwing a bag
of fries at a fifteen year old.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
You don't understand that, So you don't get that. I
feel like, but you could wrap your mind around the anger. Yes, okay,
I did rage. I do understand you still would assault
a fifteen year old.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
No small fry, half a small.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Fry, probably seven. That is sad. That a sign it
was not good. It was not a good It was
bad guy. And especially if you make me wait for
the fries. You gotta fill that thing. Oh yeah, I
know the rules. Man fill so some ton spill in
the bottom of that.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
You're probably thinking, it's this isn't the guy that took
my order because he didn't cook it.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
So the guy that took my order, who I talked
to him paid for is the same guy that ran
out the order. I wasn't that guy. I took the
order and then somebody else ran.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
So do you think he could have bet he could
have filled the fries too.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Oh wow, here's the thing.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
The other thing I'm kind of and all these things
are going through my head is like, it's it's noon, Yeah,
it's noon. How fries? Why are we waiting on fries?
What's going on there? Oh? Do I need to get
in there?
Speaker 6 (14:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Oh you're going back?
Speaker 1 (14:07):
What the hell is going on?
Speaker 6 (14:07):
You should be cracking those things out. They should never
have fries that are available.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
It's it's rush hour even though there were no cars.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
And what are we doing here, and you're far away
with this, so you started eating the burger already, so
you're like, you're.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
I'm still in the parking lot. I could put that
puppy apart and walk in and be like, hey, fill
these fries up.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
It could be that now that fries are fifteen dollars,
they you know, they hold off on me if I'm.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Paying, if I'm paying more, I should get the full amount.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Well you should, But I'm just saying why they're not ready?
You know what I mean. We can't.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
We can't mess around and waste fries in this economy
because now that they're like fifteen million.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I don't think that's so You're.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Right, they should be ready to.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Go, and so I just go. I guess this is
just the universe just laughing at me, and I just
have to accept it about time.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
Or you can look at it like this is the
unif are showing you, you know what, you made a
choice to be the better man.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Look at you.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
That is true.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
You were challenged by the universe, and.
Speaker 4 (15:07):
You showed you.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
Would have thrown I wouldn't have thrown fries, but I
would have marched in there and gone, what the hell's
up with this?
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Bro?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Oh Philip drop.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Is people like you? Man, I hated people like you.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Yeah, they're the worst.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
They're the worst. Mistake, it was a mistake. You don't
need to yell.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
At come on, you've never made a mistake.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
Only I'd walk in there and I'd be calm at first.
I'd walk in there and be, hey, my fries, Aren't
I get some more fries? That's how I'd say. And
if they were like annoyed, then I'd get annoyed. Yeah,
and then I'd be like, hey, whoa, what's the attitude
for you? Ned to fill up my fries?
Speaker 1 (15:47):
But it would be a thought, you would think throwing.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Fifteen year old punks, you know, the year old punk
learned a lessons assistant manager.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
So it happened to me. Powers happened to me, Man, ridiculous.
