McDonald’s funny mistake & the rest of my day

Tweet

My daughter asked me a week ago if I would drive her to meet a woman to buy some manga off of if she paid me for the gas. We lined things up for today at 1pm. My husband wanted to go visit him mom and took the baby and my stepson while my older two kids and I went out My son noticed when I made right turns that my turn signal was blinking very rapidly. I’ll have to get that fixed tomorrow before the big snow storm comes at night. I had a $15 off coupon for Burger King but my internet wouldn’t work well and when I used their wifi inside it wouldn’t let me log into the app to use the code. I was very frustrated. My son bought a few cds at a music store and then we went to Aldis and Walmart for groceries. Our last stop before heading home was McDonald’s to use two coupons I had. One was for a free hamburger and the other for a free ice cream cone. I told them I wanted the burger plain but would pay extra for bacon and cheese on it which is what my daughter wanted. I heard them ask if she wants bacon on the side and the cashier said no on it. I drove away and my daughter bit into it and discovered there was no burger at all. I giggled the entire drive back thinking that was a really funny mistake they made. A burger plain means no onions, no ketchup no pickles. But it still means a burger between the buns! I went in to the cashier I had just ordered from and said “I don’t know if I wasn’t specific enough about what I ordered but they didn’t put a burger inside just bacon and cheese.” She took it to her boss who had helped her ring the order up a few minutes prior. The boss said “that’s not..” but I couldn’t make out the rest of what she said. The cashier just came back with a fresh burger didn’t say a word and handed it to me but gave me an irritated look. Sorry kid you and the staff got the order very wrong not my problem I was nice about it she should have said she was sorry for the mixup. I thanked her and left. I can use good manners even if she doesn’t know how. Photo is unrelated but is of the new magnetic strip my husband ordered to hang his knives up. One is new and he liked it enough he is going to replace the other two with that brand. It’ll look much better when the knives all match. I don’t like the white knife at all but I have other knives I use anyway.
