Need humanity

On my way through Wendy's parking lot, I noticed two people, who I assumed to be strangers. Who knows. Well, they do. One has a receipt, complaining about the restaurant. The other was headed inside.
Angry lady apparently kept getting the wrong order from them. And the other customer turned away because of that.
This would have been a perfect time to invite them to McDonald's, which was my destination. Unfortunately, I have zero confidence in my crew's abilities. (and I was running late) I'd talk it up, and then they'd muck it up, because
everybody makes mistakes.

EVERYBODY

and people act like it's a big deal. Shit. You paid less than ten dollars for a whole MEAL. Put your big girl thong on and get the fuck over it.

I finally wrote down a litter-ers license plate number. Now, what can I do with it? They deliberately dropped a sonic cup in my drive-thru. I said 'thanks for littering' and sent them on their merry nature-hating way.

I hate it when people ask for directions, and I've never heard of where they're trying to get to. Next time, maybe I should draw a treasure map, and hand it to them. 'x marks the spot, laddy!' and shut the window.

speaking of windows, it's very unsettling when someone walks up to the window after midnight. I understand we forgot a mcchicken. But think about it. It's past midnight and dark. I'm not opening this window for foot traffic, bro.
On a related note, I saw a guy walk into sonic. Yeah, sonic. Sonic is a drive in, no eat in, no walk in. Sure, they got his coney wrong, but,
THERE IS A BUTTON NEXT TO HIS TRUCK THAT LETS HIM COMMUNICATE WITH EMPLOYEES. I know he knows how to use it. I watched him use it.
this button does three things, saves him time, and effort.
saves employees time and effort
DOESN'T FREAK ANYONE OUT when some old guy wanders into the kitchen/store/whatever the heck sonic is.
jeez people.

Dumpster was full of trash bags this evening. A normal occurrence. Manager told me to make sure there weren't any bags on the ground. This dumpster is overflowing. And five bags already on the side. I've got a bin of ten or so that needs to go in.
Sigh. I climb up onto this dumpster, it's like ten feet tall. I notice that the entire back area of the dumpster is empty. So after some maneuvering and removal of the CARDBOARD boxes I was able to get everything to fit. So now it really is overflowing.
Hooray.

And we have TWO cardboard dumpsters. For cardboard only.
There is no excuse, except sloth and apathy.

And to make it all even better, a few of those trash bags weren't tied off properly. Meaning they spewed their contents everywhere as I threw them into the dumpster.
FUN!

I think I'm getting sick. Allergic to change.
