    Default My drive-thru maccas rant

    Saturday night at about 4:30am I went through a 24 hour maccas drive through after a night on the town (sober before you "never do anything wrong" people say something).

    Long story short it took 45 minutes to get a simple Bacon and Egg muffin meal. I was there long enough that my MAF heated up so much it went spastic and threw error codes at me.

    Any one else had a longer drive through time then this?

    lol maybe turn the car off? You weren't really idling for 45 minutes were you?

    Haha I hate late night maccas I did actually throw it back once after some bs (on foot) and got arrested then let off with a warning after 1hr while my mates bailed lol.

    Good times.

    Firstly....You waited for 45 minutes? Thats ludicrous. I would have left after 10 mins max.

    Secondly....You left your car idling. Even if it was only idling for 10 mins or so. After 5 mins max I would shut it down.

    Thirdly....Obviously you weren't pissed cause you stated you were sober, so why not head home and catch some zzzz's and come back in a couple hours for brekky?

    Forthly...I have 3 good friends who are Managers at our local Macca's store and there is no way that a single meal has ever taken 45 mins to make....thats just hard to believe!!

    Firstly: Yes I did, a bit hard to leave ina single lane with cars in front and behind.

    Secondly: Yes I did, air con is required in 29 degree 80% humidity...

    Thirdly: Maybe I don't feel like driving first thing when I wake up. So no not an option.

    Fourthly: Believe it or not, if not tell your friend managers to pass it up the COC that hiring 15 year olds to work at 4 in the morning just isn't working, so stop hiring pimply faced retards.

    Firstly...Get them to park you. Macca's policy is to park you if it can't be made within a couple of minutes. So are you now saying that there were other cars ahead and behind you for the 45 minute wait??? hmmmm

    Secondly...Common sense would say that idling a car for 45 mins in that much humidity aint the smartest move. It was either you or the car that was going to lose out in the overheating stakes....

    Thirdly....Don't drive when you get up. Look in the fridge or the pantry for food at home.

    Fourthly....If your unhappy, then don't go to a place with which you seem to have issues!

    LOL you just don't quite get it do you kiddo... from the time I ordered to the time I got my food was 45 minutes. In a single lane with cars in front and behind, hell, if it's there "policy" I'll give them the keys and they can park it... If they can do it without going up a gutter, into a concrete wall then taking out the side of all the cars in front.

    Don't keep pushing it, you're only making your self look like you're one of those pimply faced retards.

    FYI, the car was in no danger of over heating. The engine temp didn't rise what so ever. However, the MAF absorbed enough radiant heat from the exhaust manifolds to give false readings which the car picked up on. Hence the error codes.

    Finally, ... I give up...

    I think you were baked. You expect us to believe 3+ cars idled in a drive through for 45 minutes? Maybe one of you might be that retarded, but 3? Yeah right.

    See kids, take drugs and reality gets warped.

    ROFL, mabye it was too much desert sun?
    Nah seriously, it's a fast food joint and a shit one at that, so after 10 mins i would've been out of there. I would've thought one of you would've gotten out of your car and blasted these maccas morons for taking so long.
    One thing's for sure, you have alot more patience than me.

    Hey man, haven't you seen the ads? Maccy D's uses the highest quality Australian "beef" lol. What a load of Mccrap.

    That'll teach you for eating such Mcshit.

    Maccas = Filthiest Mcfood ever besides Hungry Jacks. Add onto that: KFC, Red Rooster and all the other shit take away around. Mchome cooked food FTW!
