What would you do if???????????

DALENEWELL

You were just enough under your calorie goal for the day and you decided to split a mcbristro and fries at Micky d's and when you drove away and parked your car you found out they messed up the order. You got a large fries, a med fries, a big mac with extra pickles and a Double BIG MAC? I will let you know what we did but just wanted to know what your thoughts were????

I would have taken it back and got my own order.

Honestly I'd go back and ask where the hell my salad was, because that would have been more order. I LOVE McD's fries and now they make more feel like crap for the day. . .

I would go back and get my correct order, just for the principle of it. They should have gotten your order right.

I probably wouldn't of gone to Micky D's to begin with, but if I did, I would go back and make them give me what I ordered! Here is something my daughter shared with me. It's a little lengthy but you can skip through some parts although, we watched it all. Didn't realize what effects foods really have, specially fast foods. Let me know what you thought about this video...curious.

If i had the time, I would take it back and have them fix it.

Basically this. If I ordered something and they screwed up everything, I would return to the place I got it from and demand either they make the order right or demand a full refund. If they're out of something, they need to tell you. If they're out of medium fry holders and decide to, stupidly, give you two different sizes instead, they need to tell you. Otherwise it just sounds like you got the shift lot that couldn't give a flying monkey turd about their jobs, just the paycheck.

i would take it back and have them fix it too.

The worst part about going back, is they cant re-serve they gave you, so you are usually stuck with it.
So you get what you ordered+more!

if you live in a bigger city, give the food to a homeless person

eeek Yeah if I was watching my calories (like I do now) I would take it back..because if I ate the fries and burger, it'd double my calories :-( my husband said he'd "mow that all down" bahahah! But he's not on a strict diet .. :-)

jcriscuolo

That must have been some kind of test of your will. Resist the temptation to driv off and eat it. Take it back, get your money back and stay under your daily caloric intake ;-)

mmstgr

Take it back! Because I don't like the Big Mac, lol

ihateroses

I would have ate it.

eaten* :laugh:

I wouldn't have (willingly) gone to McDs either - but I've been in that spot with other fastfood places -- I'd have taken it back and gotten what I ordered.

Now, if it was something from another place that I actually *liked* -- it would have been much harder to do - probably would have ended up as one of my BAD days.

This always happens to me. We have the biggest turnover at our McD's in the world it seems, because everyone is in training all the time. I hate to get some poor kid in trouble who probably just started his/her first job, so I dunno, if I went back, I would just be very calm and sweet about it explaining what happened but that the person at the window was very nice and pleasant, just made a mistake, that's all.

I have older kids and both of them had at some time or another worked in fast food and made mistakes, so maybe I am just acting like I wish people would have been toward my kids.

My son says once on his first or second day, he accidentally switched orders, giving one car four diet cokes when they ordered regulars and giving the next car reg when they ordered four diets. No one complained, though. I thought that was odd. I would have thought the non dieters getting diet sodas would have raised hell, but they didn't. I love people like that.

Must be a location thing. Every fast food place I've been to here, if you return in the restaurant with the order, they throw it away. Now if you call it in, talk to the manager, and either then go get the new order or go redeem your free meal at a later date then yeah you get to keep all the food.

I would take it back - having worked fast food through high school and part of college I have little patience for having my food messed up - though i am usually nice about it when i do take it back but it does need to be fixed the way you order it.

debbieLamphere

not sure.........I try to stay away from fast food lately ..........but i do go from time to time...when i go now i order small everything and no milkshake! but in the olden days the funny thing is the order you got sounds just like what i would have ordered! i love the big macs with EXTRA pickle!!! and Extra sauce too!! lol . chances are i probably would try to eat half of everything that way i would not feel quite as guilty. lol

mikey1976

if and when back in the day i would of just kept it. but now if i went their for frys and they messed up i would still keep the frys and give the rest away to someone but thats me

Well I actually do like big macs so I ate the double big mac and most of the largre fries and my wife ate 1/2 of the the reg big mac and 1/2 of the med fries. We knew they couldn't reserve the food. We then tryed phoning but couldn't get through. So we brought our receipt back asking for our money back for our orginal order. I said we didn't want the chicken sandwich at that time. They made another mistake and gave us money back and made another Sandwich which they gave us. No... I didn't eat that one we brought it my son who does not have any weight problem. I went over on my calories and intended to work them off but never. As I write this I am under today and plan to work out within 10 mins. Thanks for your imput..... I knew some would say they just don't go to Micky D's.

I try not to go to fast food as much as I can.I am trying very hard to watch what I am eating. If I do go in for any reason I normally write down my order on a paper, write it neat give it to the worker who is taking my order. It helps me go on track in stead of being lazy and eating what ever. After paying and my stuff I go through my order make sure its right before I leave. If it's not and if they give me a hard time I give them the paper and say you can't read?? My order is written on paper of what I want. So fix it. That's if they are very rude about it. Other than that I am nice about it and tell them they made a mistake on my order.

Go back and pay for the extras. I am sure that as I am on my way to pay for the extras, someone will come across my path who needs the extras more than I do, and I'd give them the extras. But that's just me.
