I feel you. I actually have found myself at "Rally's" and "Checkers" often the last few weeks (damn Bacon Double Cheeseburgers!)

Customer service is the absolute largest example for circular logic that I have ever encountered. The people typically working in a fast food facility are those that do not necessarily want to be there, yet they have to be because either a] they are high school drop-outs who can never aspire to do anything further with their lives as a direct result of their lack of integral schooling throughout their so-called youth, or b] they are a bitter or indifferent teenager looking to make a decent bit of cash to buy the new Grand Theft Auto or something else that is equally beneficial and/or enticing. The irony lies in the fact that customers do not, under any circumstances, want to deal with these rude individuals. It would be so much more simple if the people working for Checkers enjoyed their line of work, but the reality is that they probably never will. And unless we make a line of Sarah Brown robots programmed to keep an everlasting smile, this will almost always be the case.

Hey Man, I feel you..I just wrote a post on simular bad customer service on my blog at an IHOP (See
"Pancake Flip") It was in a white neighborhood, but the server was Black. This just must be a bad week

this reminds me of the 1st time i ever went to Popeye's. we didn't have them where i'm from, so my 1st experience was at the one nearest the AUC. the girl got all mad at me b/c i didn't understand her pronunciation of "dirty rice." (gotta love that ATL accent!)

It's Checkers, what do you want! LOL. The one around my way is just as bad. But sometimes you do get a nice one. Maybe she had a long ass day. I worked food service once and people can be mean to you. Tho at least I'd be nice to the customers until they get rude first... then forget about asking me for that extra cherry on your sundae! lol.
