McDonald's...psh

Well I missed dinner tonight, and I ended up getting caught up in some tv shows and didn't leave to get food until 10pm. Now this is what I do usually once a week or so, head to McDonald's for some late night snacks because they're the only place open 24 hours. And I've noticed that it always takes FOREVER. Granted, it's right at a busy intersection, but come on...I blame it on crappy staff. So anyway, I went tonight and noticed two things about this glorious restaurant chain. First, I'm pretty sure they only make a one-size-fits-all shirt for the employees. I tend to like tighter shirts that don't have the short sleeves hanging down way past your elbows, but every single person I've ever seen working at a McDonald's is wearing a huge shirt. Either they only make one size, or the thug people who work there like to wear bulky clothes so they can hide guns and drugs in them. Second, the people who work inside never ever ever ever ever look at the person sitting at the drive-thru window until their food is ready to be handed over. The lady handed me my food tonight and turned around to prepare the next order just as I discovered that my burger had onions on it. So I'm holding up the burger, frantically trying to make eye contact with the 3 people standing inside and not one of them looks over at me. Finally, the next order is ready and the woman walks over to the window, opens it, and halfway handed me another bag of food before she realized that I was the same customer as before. Somebody needs to tell the McDonald's employees to work on their people skills before somebody gets mad and throws the food back through the window at them.
