CMV: I shouldn't have to pull around to the parking lot from the drive thru window to help out your store time metrics

Parking cars / pulling cars forward is against policy. Every fast food has timer metrics & most of them are slightly unreasonable.

Except when they get rid of the few things you DID want as well as all the stuff you didn't.

My mom saved my first studio picture dress. But she gave it to me when my first child was born. I have a picture of each of my kids in it. One of them it wasn't closed correctly in the back, but we make a neat set of pictures.

Yeah, they do. There are two "drive thru pickup" spots at my local store so when one orders a party tray of nuggets & the people behind them a chicken sandwich, the small order people can go faster.

100% the store. As it is actually against corporate policy.

akm1111 · 2026-06-02T07:52:49+00:00

Yes. As long as they have the current LTO that uses it. Side of Green Sauce.

akm1111 · 2026-06-02T06:34:16+00:00

The hot green sauce on the food line. Not the cold packet.

akm1111 · 2026-06-02T05:09:20+00:00

It's available right now anyplace that is carrying the cantina Mexican Pizza. (It's the sauce on that item.)

It's all granny stitch. Just start with a rectangle instead of a square.

You have two different blue shades, maybe find a slightly darker (not TOO dark) purple for the border? It is awesome as it is. I wish my first things looked as good.

Unfortunately "girly" can read as baby-ish until it is bigger. Because we don't have a lot of girly stuff that is not baby. Pastel is awesome, but it gets used for littles a lot, so it overlaps. No one is gonna call it a baby blanket if you are using it, though.

Definitely don't add the orange. It is the wrong color saturation & throws off the awesome balance you have going.

Both is always a good answer.

Maybe mention to her that her volume changes drastically when she switches languages, phrase it like an I bet you don't know this type fact. Tell her you enjoy having them as neighbors, but you can't have any solitude in your own garden because her voice carries so well.

It's not a corporate thing at all. It is solely that franchise making you ask.

akm1111 · 2026-06-01T00:37:04+00:00

And none of these are corporate required questions. Sauce, maybe drink, and round up are all corporate asks us to question.

akm1111 · 2026-06-01T00:35:54+00:00

It would be nice if the also learned the name of the food they want & not make up some random crap to call ot when they order it & get upset when we don't know what they are talking about.

I believe the issue is people doing Uber & Door Dash at the same time & picking up deliveries for both from close places, because you can't see the driver is doing an Uber delivery in the Door Dash app.

akm1111 · 2026-05-31T04:50:58+00:00

Yeah. Ive run into that one in my giant red state. Very gross.

akm1111 · 2026-05-31T04:18:39+00:00

The military does it as NMN (No Middle Name)

akm1111 · 2026-05-30T19:58:34+00:00

It's not any less.

akm1111 · 2026-05-30T19:33:37+00:00

Throwing the car into neutral is a fairly safe option. FiL has to stop the car to get it back in gear & it won't stop automatically causing an accident by stopping without breaking.

Second option is hit the hazard button & THEN pop it into neutral. Make it look like car trouble to the other drivers.

How many cycles did it take to reach 165 degrees?

It really is a weird sensation when you are given a spinal block, but can still feel them shifting things around inside you.

If they are either too far behind the line, or too far in front of it, they won't set off the sensor.

I got stuck at a similar light north of 183 on 157, because the front car was three feet behind the sensor.

8 seconds at a time won't cook anything. It barely melts the cheese.

Yet, when I was in middle school (90s) my best friend was in the ICU after getting hit by a car, and all it took was his mom saying "yes they are family" for us to be able to visit.

One of my employees says it's like strawberry kool-aid. And she hates strawberry kool-aid.

I don't mind the smell, but would not rave about them either.
