Miscellaneous: Today, McDonalds charged me 21 cents for a honey mustard packet....

Today, McDonalds charged me 21 cents for a honey mustard packet. The jerk manager made me break a $50 bill. So I grabbed all their napkins, carried them into the parking lot and tossed them all into the air in protest and drove off. Down the road, I realized I left my wallet at the counter. FML

Today, after a long day at work, I was starving, so I stopped by the drive-through for something to eat. When I got home and hurriedly opened the bag, all I found inside was napkins. Thanks, McDonald's. FML

Today, I walked to my local McDonald's. I spent the last 7 dollars I had on my meal. As I began to walk back to my dorm, I was mugged. I explained to them I had no money, so they stole my food. FML

Today, while working at McDonald's a car full of obnoxious teens came through. They had made a $30 order, and handed me a tin of small change, claiming that on a McDonald's ad they saw that we, employees, liked counting change. I had to count out $30 in spare change during a rush period at work. FML

Today, I went to McDonald's to get breakfast. I sat my food down at a table and went to get some napkins and a straw. I returned to the table to find that my food was gone, and could hear nothing but "SUCKKAAAA" trailing from the entrance to the restaurant. Some jerk stole my meal. FML

Today, I went to a restaurant and only brought $14 with me to eat. I ordered and ate my meal, then went to the counter to pay for it. I threw $2 into the tip jar then got my bill. My bill was $13.86. I had to reach into the tip jar and take my $2 back so I could pay for my meal. FML

Today, a customer came into McDonalds and placed his order. He insisted on putting each coin on the counter rather than handing them straight to me, because he doesn't like touching "poor people". FML

Today, my mother resolved to never visit McDonald's again. Not because of ethics or health concerns, but because they charged her for extra barbecue sauce. She bitched out the man in the drive-through for a good five minutes, while I sat awkwardly in the passenger's seat. FML

Today, after a long, horrible day at work and some fighting with my family and my girlfriend, I decided to cheer myself up by going to McDonald's for a change. I burst into tears when the cashier told me they couldn't make me a Mars McFlurry because they'd run out of ingredients. FML

Today, some friends and I went to IHOP. We joked about not having enough money, and as it turns out we were $5 short. We put down what we had and left. Upon getting to the car, I realized I'd forgotten my phone, and had to go back. I made eye contact with our waitress, our money in her hand. FML

That's pathetic. Seriously. I know the manager was being an arse, but that doesn't mean you should act the same. You should carry some friggin change on you. Who walks around with just $50s then gets pissy about it?

How about you skip the honey mustard? What is wrong with you? And you acted like a baby on top of it. Way to go, slick.

Lol. If you're going to stage a dramatic exit, at least do it right! Massive fail! Also massive fail for being an asshole customer. It costs 21 cents. Either pay for it or don't buy it. They're not going to give it to you for free, it's not exactly one of the numerous options McD's employees get! Hello, multinational corporation?? They can't just make an exception for you, just because you happen to be a gigantic asshole who carries around $50 bills! Welcome to the realization that there are other people in the world besides you. I hope they made you clean up the napkins or fined you for littering, you ******* litterbug!

Fucktard!!! YDI!!! #184 HEAR HEAR!!! Having had been a McDonald's employee for 5 1/2 years, I can see why he charged you. Yeah, for you, it's 21 cents. For the restaurant, it's hundreds of packets of sauce a day. Say they give away 200 hundred free sauces a day (and I can guarantee it would be more!) that's $42 loss a day, and over $1200 loss a month, over $15000 a year. Add that to all the stolen food by employees, the cos of morons like you wasting all the condiments in a tantrum, and it all ******* adds up. You want something, you pay for it. You don't want to break your precious $50 note, don't buy it! #191 You're a moron.

that's annoying that they are so adamant about charging for a condiment.... but a huge YDI for being juvenile and littering. Lame retaliation brother.

It is so easy to see who has never worked in the food/retail industry. All I have to say to you is that this is one of the most deserved "FMLs" that I have ever seen. The owner of the store or the company sets that price and it has nothing to do with the employees or the managers they are just doing what they have to do to keep their jobs. I kid you not there have actually been a few people fired over something as simple as dipping sauce at my previous job. OP suck it up, I hope you get your wallet back but you are the type of person who ruins a day for employees who are just trying to do their job.
