Coke and Sponges

I've had two people so far outright refuse the free coke glass with the large meals this year. I'd refuse too if I'd already gotten that colour. One guy just said 'I'm not a coke fan'
Me, I don't care what's on it, it's free dishware!
These glasses are a great idea, business-wise, as is most of what McD does, but dammit, it sucks on a crew member level. As usual. (50 piece nuggets, McRibs, gift cards through drive-thru, etc)
This lady kept asking and asking if she'd get a free cup, and I kept reminding her it was for a large meal only, and that's what she got. She handed me the money, wordlessly. I can't remember exact details but it felt like she was antisocial/grumpy, and the kid in the back was giving apologetic looks. And she also drove for the second window quickly.
This year, we're handing out the glasses at the first window, I guess to make it easier. Sigh.

My point is, these gross despicable people need to stop worrying and caring about their 'free' shit.
And stop relying on their children to be polite in their place.

Anyway, the other day a kid actually asked for a Krabby Patty.
This was when I realised I am Spongebob IRL.

Also Mac Snack Wraps have returned.

That Time of Year

People have started saying 'Merry Christmas' as they leave now.
The first guy sounded like confused reflex. The next, was serious.
To each I replied 'not yet'.
We still got 18 days or so.

Plus it's a meaningless holiday. It only holds magic for children and people in movies who enjoy massive amounts of luck and sexy christmas miracles. And people who hope real life is like that.
Why do we need a certain time of year to be nice to each other?

It's silly. Also christmas music is overplayed. Except for silver bells.
Could listen to that all day.
