I just wanna add to the whole “fast food workers dont deserve the shit enraged costumers give us” conversation.
Most staff at the fast food place I work at only know enough english to take orders and do their job. This isnt uncommon in america. When people speak fast they are harder to understand. When people are angry, they tend to speak loud, fast, and slur their words. Theres also the general stress of working minimum wage on top of that. When we mess up, and we do, slow down your speech and try to understand that the worker is human. They will do everything in their power to get you what you ordered, because it is their job. And also, mumbling doesnt help either, its okay to ask to fix an order. Just be clear in how you speak and the stress will be far less for everyone involved. Even if they ARE fluent in english/your first language slowing down and trying to be clear can help because when we’re working we have a lot going on.
#fast food workers are NOT robots#also the kiosks arent there to replace me they’re there to make a short staffed day less stressful#we will take ur order if you need us to. customers ARE priority#its just when a massive group of teenagers comes in and we’re short staffed#or when a big group comes i#if they understand how to work it it makes things easier#also creates new positions. i work in the dining room instead of behind a register#fast food#karens are silly#the term karen is weird i dont like it. ppl just label whoever they want it#like yes theyre angry but dont dehumanize karens either#essential workers#minimum wage
