It's The Little Things

[SmokinHammer]

So, I worked late last night, and stopped at a little burger joint on the way home. I knew I wouldn't feel like cooking, so I picked up a couple burgers, fries, and onion rings. Then I saw that the frozen custard flavor of the day was butter pecan, my wife's favorite, so I asked for a quart of that too. When they handed me my order, all of the hot food was in a plain, white paper bag, and the custard was in a thick, insulated paper bag. It was, at the time 30 degrees outside. I thought about saying something... but just went home and had dinner.

LOL--I think we have all been there. I have one place--drive thru. An order for a family of 4--burgers(big), fries--all crammed into 1 bag(small bag)-can't even close the top. They get a bit irritated when I tell them to put the orders in separate bags.

The first time it happened, I didn't say anything--got home and the burger on the bottom (mine) was a mass of squished parts.....

How hard is it to figure that one out...

I went to Arby's today and after ordering went to load up on Arby sauce. They didn't have any sauce or ketsup out!

If you want any sauce you have to go back up and ask for it. That's just stupid and bad service. There wasn't even a place for where the stuff would normally be, it just like they don't put it out, EVER! Anyhow, guess that's not a little thing, but figured this was a good place to post it.

It's been awhile since I've been to Arby's, but when did they start doing that I wonder? Now I'll have to go and see if they're doing it here, too. I really hope not cause I wouldn't like that.

I hate it when people dont merge to the right to turn into a driveway!!!!!!! They take up the whole lane and everyone has to slam on the brakes.

My pet peeves...

Now I'm not an aggressive driver, but I believe in the right of way, in other words, do what those around you think you will do. Scenario:

So you are on a side street and come to a stop sign at a major road and you want to make a left. There is Mr. Nicey Nice on the major road coming up on your right, left blinker on about to turn onto the same side road. There are people traveling behind Mr. Nice and they expect Mr. Nice to make the turn. Instead he:

1) Does not turn because he wants to be nice and wave you out

2) Is too stupid to realize you are not coming out because his window is up and it's tinted

3) Decides he shouldn't have done this and the dance starts as you both try to make the turn, stop, start again.

4) You weren't expecting this so hopefully you check the oncoming traffic and don't just trust his judgment on whether you can get out, I've seen people do this, close calls

5) Had he just made the turn, the cars behind him would have gotten through barely touching their brakes and you would have gotten out 5 seconds later. Instead, either you get out or not, but the people behind Mr. Nicey Nice are now stuck because he can't turn because the oncoming traffic showed up.

6) And the best (ha ha) is when Mr. Nice came up to make the left, he purposefully pulled over enough to let the people behind him pass on the right, remember, he IS Mr. Nicey Nice. Now there he sits waving you out into the traffic he is letting by on his right. More close ones as neither driver can really see each other.

One time I went to McDonald's and handed this kid a roll of quarters. The kid laughed and said,"Are you serious?" I answered,"Yes." He RIPPED OPEN the roll of quarters, took out what he needed, and then handed me a hand full of quarters! This kid isn't with us anymore. jk.

I stopped at Panda Express today for lunch. I paid my bill with cash. I scooped my change out of the automatic change spitter outer thingy and noticed that all I got was $.05. The gal walked away from the register and I looked at my receipt and the 5 cents in my hand. I was supposed to get $.06 back in change. I stood there trying to get the gals attention. She finally came back and I told her the problem. She then tells me that the changer has been not giving out pennies since it was installed. She gave me the penny and walked away again.

From now on, I am going to count the change that these little automatic change spitter outer things give back to me. It is a conspiracy, I just know it!
