is it me? or are they really quite nasty creatures? i almost instinctively avoid dealing with them when i go to mcdonald’s. i love maccas. i love their food. i love the atmosphere of their restaurants. i know how cringeworthy that just sounded. i must have given you the impression that i’m a pimple-faced porcine glutton. i’m actually none of that. granted, morgan spurlock manage to keep me off maccas for a few months after watching his film. the allure of the golden arches proved to be too tempting to resist. upon reflection, i’m not sure if spurlock’s film was any more of a
documentary than Borat The Movie. anyhow, i’ve digressed enough. shall we proceed with the point of the post.
not 3 hours ago i was at a 24hour mcdonalds (how i love those) for a little snack as we were a bit peckish. the place was oddly packed, and at 11pm there was a kid’s birthday party taking place so the place was overrun with rowdy kids. only two counters were open to serve the crowd. the queue to the counter with the
male server was longer so we joined the slightly shorter queue for the female one. came our
turn to place our order, the cunt at the till did not greet us. i wouldn’t have minded the lack
pleasantries had she not given us the feeling that we just completely interrupted her peace. well , i guess whatever no biggie. we placed our order and i had a medium double cheese burger meal set and a choc sundae. when the sundae came, the cup was only have full. annoyed at the apparent attempt at pulling a fast one on me, i politely pointed this out to her, not wanting to offend anyone, or making a scene. of course , she obliged, but not before pulling her face in protest and stomping off the sundae machine to top it up. we saw her pumping the chocolate good with such angst we were taken aback by her reaction. just made us wonder how big a request we just made. as she came back, still sulky and stropped out she slammed the cup on the counter as if to say “take your fucking sundae and fuck off”. me and my sister just exchanged perplexed glances and coughed up the total showed on the til.
this is a very typical experience when dealing with these wretches. it’s extremely rare to
receive such an appalling service from a male server. this might sound rather sexist but i’m just speaking from my experience. the ones who normally fill only half your cup or fries sleeve are normally women and not to mention a big serving of attitude. why do they ever work at these establishments if they find it to be so draining ? it’s probably got to do with their cyclical reproductive functions that affect their hormonal balances. or perhaps they feel they are too good for the job but forced into it by their circumstances? whatever it is, i often find their performance on their jobs well below their
male counterparts. i cannot see why they would so flagrantly skimp on fries or sundae when the guys have no trouble filling them to capacity. could this be a justification for the pay-gap between genders in their jobs? as politically incrrect it might sound, it does seem like men perform better on their jobs
compared to their female peers. perhaps the business world secretly acknowledge this by
rewarding their male employees a certain percentage better. i very much doubt this to be the case as far as maccas servers go but if my experience mirrors a wider reality, i see no reason to pay women as much as men. the politically correct theory goes that women and men both with the same position performing the same duties ought to result in the same outcome. but if experience is anything to go by, the executions of the aforementioned duties are starkly different between genders therefore the higher pay should go to the ones who give the customers a less distressing time ie the men. lazy maccas cunts will continue to rely on their bra burning lesbian sisters calling for
“equality” in pay when they are both clearly not doing the exact same things.
this is i realise a gross generalisation. perhaps i extrapolated my experience a bit too far as to call for a justification for the pay gap. this is a rant pent up in me for years and years and years of being irritated at mcdonald’s. the common denominator of these events seem to be the gender of the server. i suppose i’m just allowing these little things to get the better of me.
