Forgive me my intemperate language, but McDonalds’ systems are designed for morons. When you’re serving food that comes in at under a quid and your staff are a combination of minimum-wagers marking time during half term and people who would otherwise be retired or unemployed, you can’t rely on a willing attitude and customer service innovation arising from the ground up.
Even so, the McDonalds in Ripon must run ads like this during recruitment drives:

We go there once a week and I swear that in 190000 visits, there’s been something missing or wrong in every single one. Today, I ordered a Big Mac… and got a McChicken sandwich. Anthony ordered a plain cheeseburger that took 15 minutes to arrive. 15 minutes! For a burger! In McDonalds!
If there are any would-be Burger King Franchisees in Ripon reading this… please, please, please take the plunge.
[UPDATES: 18:2:2010 - ordered a double cheeseburger, got a single cheeseburger. Antcliffe order fries, got wedges]

Probably all too busy on the Married Dating scene. You forgot to mention the fact that the last two times before today they forgot my chicken nuggets. Fuckers.

That would imply that they are attractive to more than one person Ant. Also: SPAM!

Perhaps if you made an effort to make some
filling homemade lunches there would be no need to frequent such places.
