I give customers more food as a McDonald’s employee

r/

Thats pretty much it. I make sure that customers get their moneys worth. I make the McFlurries full and add a good amount of sauce, I make sure the fries are as full as possible, and sometimes I give the sauces away for free. I once put about 14 nuggets in a 9 piece box. I genuienly don’t care anymore. I think the job is fun and stuff but it’s taken way too seriously.

They haven’t taught me how to work the grill and how to make the burgers yet, but to be honest, that’s for their own safety at this point.

    I worked at kfc in high school. The potatoes are made from flakes. I always added more butter bc they tasted better. Also, colleagues would mix the coleslaw in a huge bin with bare hands and arms. They were elbow deep in these bins. They wouldn’t buy us gloves. I always turned the long bag buns inside out (in addition to washing up really well) when it was my turn to make coleslaw. No one wants dead skin cells in their food 🤢

    High school 1979, buddy worked at Carl’s Jr. Open campus, we’d walk to his store in the next parking lot for lunch.

    He always had me order the kids burger meal. The burger was usually a 6-9 cheese patty burger, and a 1/2 filled bag of fries all for $3.99 (or so).

    Life was good.

    I’m convinced that McFlurries tastes way better in Canada. I always ask for a "triple the amount of SKOR" McFlurry, and tell whomever is taking my order that they can charge me double or whatever. It’s so delicious. For those who don’t know: SKOR is a candy bar – crisp butter toffee center enrobed in milk chocolate. Kind of what Butterfingers used to be back in the day, but better.

    I also enjoy tipping McDonald’s workers $20, when I pick up my order. Not trying to be a big-shot or flex or anything. It’s just so fun to reward genuinely hard-working people. I mean, if the person punching in my order at Pressed Juice has a default setting for 20% tip for 20 seconds of work, I’m gonna tip that McDonald’s worker.

    I used to be a manager at McDs. They gave me a “manager meal code”. Any issue and I’d give people free food or refund their food. Or randomly. Or if they waited too long. Friends. Family. Myself. I can’t imagine how many thousands of dollars it cost em.

    I used to work pickup at kroger. I’d always add at least 1 free item to each tote, usually by doubling up on something they were already buying. I did it because pickup wasn’t my job, but they’d pull people from other departments when they got behind, which was all the damn time.

    My friend was a singer in a local band, when he went to the counter, the teenager serving him recognised him. He said hey aren’t you _ from __ band?

    Then he took the order, pretended to type some stuff in the computer and my friend said he gave him $20. The guy put the $20 in the register, then gave him back a $10 and 2x $5s. Then smiled at him and told him to have a great day.

    He must have done it that way so it didn’t look obvious on the cameras.

    You’re a kind one. To be honest, most of that is how it should be done anyway (not the nuggets of course tho). But things SHOULD be filled up properly. The mcflurries are notorious for being like 3/4 full and with the bottom half not even having the toppings (like Oreo or skor). Plus it’s dumb they charge for sauces. Maybe if you want a crazy amount but like…I think they can afford to give us 2 in a meal. lol.

    My very first job was at Subway. I did my very best to make the thickest, tastiest little sammies in town. My goal was to make every person feel like they got their money’s worth… and it worked. We had the highest satisfaction rating of any Subway in my city at the time but, consequently, the highest food cost in the state lol.

    Give the most you can without totally bankrupting your franchise and the karma will pay off. I had one guy who would drive across town when he knew I was working because I was the only one that made his wife’s sandwich correctly (she was dying and could only eat certain foods). The day he came in and ordered one sandwich was an awful day. Those little moments are what makes working in that industry worth it.

    Side note, funny story, one time I had two guys that were clearly baked out of their minds come in and order. They joked that they’d eat a sandwich with everything on it. I told em I’d do it and if they ate the entire thing in front of me, it was free. Needless to say I blew their minds. Made the most soggy, disgusting sandwich I’ve ever seen. They ate the entire thing and made me come out to the lobby so they could hug me.

    Life is too short. Take care of your people 🙂

    When I worked at Popeyes I would add extra fries to every order and even extra chicken if we were close to closing time (chicken was thrown out anyway)
    I would also give cups for free and tell them to refill as much as they’d like. Even with sauces I was not stingy with that (manager allowed us to only give out 2) but I would ask how many they wanted

    My high school buddy’s GF worked in the kitchen area of a local KFC. We went in and ordered a 2 piece meal with fries. His GF managed to stuff 13 pieces of chicken into the box. Obviously, the box was bulging to the extreme and there wasn’t any room for the fries.

    The ladies at the front counter knew what was going on. We were regulars and always gave them a tip when we were there. They just smiled and handed us the box.

    When we finished the chicken, my buddy wondered if he should go back up to the counter and ask for his fries that weren’t in the box. We didn’t.

    I worked at McDonald’s and I packed the fries well.

    One time when the owner came in, she weighed the fry container and shook some fries out before putting it on the tray, all with the customer watching.

    I know the customer said something to the manager on duty, and manager said, "she’s the owner" to the customer. But I never saw the owner weigh the fries again, so hopefully she realized how petty that must have looked to the customer.

I can only imagine at mcdonalds that might be true for sauces on burgers, I don’t want a ton of sauce overpowering everything else. However extra nugs and ice cream hell yeah.

    I think it’s because they have zero loyalty to their employers due to shitty treatment, and they’re grateful to me for feeling seen and being kind to them.
