Mcdonald's

McDonald's is a family fave for sure but over the years, like so many other fast food chains, they have lost sight of what true customer service is. It is unfortunate to see these establishments take the brand on their building for granted. I went through the drive through to grab something for my daughter and I and the greeting I got from the young man was "what can I get you?"...like seriously?!!!! So I said "good afternoon, how are you?" And he seemed confused by that statement. He said "what?" So I repeated myself twice before he seemed to understand what I said. My first job was at a McDonald's over 20 years ago and back then we set the bar for customer service. Back then employees cared about their customer and went the distance to make sure the customer's order was accurate, food was hot and presentable, and we thanked a customer for choosing McDonald's. And that's the thing isn't it? These businesses take for granted that customer's have a choice. We all have a choice, so when we CHOOSE to patronize YOUR establishment PLEASE take the few seconds to welcome us the right way and let us have a good impression of your employees and your establishment! When customer's witness good customer service that is a reflection of the training and management. On the flip side of that, when the service is poor it is also a reflection on management and training so what side of that coin do you as a business want to fall on? Food for thought...

MENU HACK #3 The Big Mac sucks. too much bread and 2 small cold pink slime patties. liven it up! order a big mac and then 2 for $3.50 McDoubles only cheese. Time to get busy, open all 3 three sandwiches. throw away the buns from the McDoubles. Put one pair of meat patties on the top layer and the second pair on the bottom layer of the big mac. Now you have a true BIG MAC! 6 meat patties! (if you only want 4 meat patties then order one of the McDoubles regular and only scavenge one to make your Big Mac. (this worked better when McDoubles were on the Dollar menu) See my profile for other menu hacks. I am doing this since McDonalds has a promotion where they are pushing over - priced awful tasting "hacks" some gen zer came up with.
