The fast food industry has a rule
"the customer is always right". However, it is very sad that sometimes mistakes can and will occur and people's feelings can and are often hurt. For example, how often have you ever gone
through a McDonald's drive-thru and ordered 5 orders of hotcakes & sausage for your family only to find out halfway home that forks and napkins and syrup packets were not included. And despite
your anger over the situation you either didn't have the time or energy to actually drive back and collect the needed peripherals for your meal.
Situations like this happen on every level of the industry. From the crustiest ice cream stand that's owned by one singular person all the way up to the biggest megacorporations, mishaps in the
process of feeding the masses are more than "an everyday thing", indeed they take place every hour and this very hour is no exception.
Right now, somewhere in the world, someone's cheeseburger is being served without cheese. Someone's apple pie was defected and cracked open during cooking and the heat-sensitive filling was
rendered well-done, leaving a plastic-tasting goo (and plenty of bad memories). Right now, because of raw carelessness, someone's extra value meal is being handed through the drive-thru window
*with french fries that were not only forgotten to be salted but had been sitting amok on the counter for beyond the mandatory 7 minute maximum*, leading to a most unsatisfactory fast food experience.
THE BOTTOM LINE: people don't have time to cook nutritious, home-cooked meals anymore. Life in the fast lane prevents families from sitting down to a full-course dinner the way they used to. From the
lives of children all the way to seniors on-the-move, time to eat is short and no relief is in sight. With this in mind, wrongdoings in the fast food industry should be slim and none. You should NEVER have
to worry. But, sooner or later, you'll be the next victim. Mark my words.
