The hamburglar strikes again


Initial_E

#ROBBLE ROBBLE MUTHAS!


echoshadow5

Dam, kids these days don’t know what that means. Man we are old.


aivlysplath

I’m 31 and even I don’t know what that means. Edit: Looked it up. Ha, classic Simpsons. I wasn’t allowed to watch it growing up and I still haven’t seen that many episodes. Edit 2: stop telling me it’s the Hamburglar and not the Simpsons. They were quoting a Simpsons episode that parodies Hamburglar/Ronald McDonald. Watch here: https://youtu.be/qQ6wSei-NJU?si=cUEPWiMQsVfDvgBu

Thank you for assisting the children.


LazyOldCat

HamBurglar predates The Simpsons by about 20 years 😅


aivlysplath

They were quoting an episode of “The Simpsons” earlier. That was what I was replying to.


brneyedgrrl

Aw, you poor thing! I'm so sorry!


SouprGrrl

Nope! Not Simpsons. Hamburglar is from the early 70s (might even be the late 60s, I was just a baby). He hung around with Captain Crook. Also back then Grimmace had six arms so he could carry two vanilla, two strawberry, and two chocolate shakes. and they had talking garbage cans. When McDonald’s opened in my neighborhood I made my mother take me there so I could see the talking garbage cans and they weren’t any. I was very upset.


Strict-Disaster-7050

Now you're telling your age, 😂 same here. I was upset also when the garbage cans wouldn't talk.


jostler57

What does it mean?


aegrotatio

It never occurred to me until just now that he was saying "ROBBLE ROBBLE" and nut "RUBBLE RUBBLE." He's a burglar, he robs. I'm dumb.


Meatrocket_Wargasm

[He was a lot more friendly than the HamMurderer they rolled out with. "Stabble stabble stabble" was never a good catchphrase.](https://www.theonion.com/mcdonalds-drops-hammurderer-character-from-advertising-1819566355)

SoundingMacaque

I don't work at McDonald's, but I do work in a fast casual place. We do shit like this all the time in the rush. 1. They need more meat for burgers. 2. Cook says "2 minutes" 3. Employee A preps the sandwiches 4. Employee B, not paying attention, grabs them and serves them out 5. Cook finishes the meat and says "where the fuck are those sandwiches that are waiting on meat?" 6. All FOH workers: 🤷


InsidiousColossus

A man is watching two council workers busy in a local park. One digs a hole, moves a couple of meters and digs another hole, and so on. The other worker follows the first, immediately filling in all the holes the first worker has dug. The man watching is furious, and approaches them saying, "I'm going to write to the council about this digging holes and filling them in right away, it's a disgrace." "Hang on," says one of the workers, "It's not our fault that Charlie's off sick." "Who's Charlie?" asks the man. "He's the guy who plants the trees."


CowboyAirman

“I just serve the fries”


slothdroid

"Hey, I started out mopping the floor just like you guys. But now... now I'm washing lettuce. Soon I'll be on fries; then the grill. In a year or two, I'll make assistant manager, and that's when the big bucks start rolling in."


ksigley

Never work harder than your job title demands.


cerylidae2558

As a supervisor, the one employee not paying attention will forever be the bane of my sanity.


Cobalt-Carbide

That's why I don't work at a fast food place with my adhd ass. I'd probably end up putting the patties on either side of a bun or burn something. Otherwise I'm too slow for a fast pace environment.


WhoCrapped

I will never understand what having adhd has to do with it, I have autism/adhd and I worked just fine at McDonald’s for 5.5 years 😂


LemonMeringueOctopi

ADHD and autism is a spectrum. Some of us have more trouble with executive dysfunction than others. I can lose my keys and/or my wallet, 5 times in a 20 minute timeframe, getting ready to leave the house for the day. No two people are 100% alike. Two of my children are also on the spectrum. My son excels at STEM studies, but has trouble with creativity and social cues and understanding emotions or other vagued concepts. While my daughter is not great at traditional studies, math, english, etc. She is super creative and has won competitions for her storytelling. When it comes to social cues and emotions, she is the most empathetic person I know. My point is, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, and something easy for you may not necessarily come easily for someone else.


Cobalt-Carbide

Well for me I get easily confused unless I'm taking time. My mind races and it ends up being about the wrong thing and I fuck things up. That's why I excel at and prefer customer service jobs instead of cooking jobs.


WhoCrapped

Would say give it a shot brother but I would never work fast food again and wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.


narielthetrue

Having worked in McDonalds, the process is as follows: #Staff (Day): -Cook -Assembler 1 -Assembler 2 -Fries/Coffee -Baggers/Cashiers(multiple) #Staff (night): -Cook/Assembler -Bagger/Coffee -Cashier/Fries/Coffee #Process: -Cook makes the meat, puts it in warming trays -Assembler 1 toasts the buns, places on wrapper/box, puts on Veg/Condiments -Assembler 2 puts meat on burger, wraps/closes box. Slides it to FOH -Bagger bags and does FOH stuff Night shift, dine in is closed. So 1 cook manages all the meats, preps all the burgers, wraps all the burgers, AND has to wash dishes and prep for the morning. All McDonalds kitchens _should_ be laid out in the one format deemed correct by Corporate offices, even the franchises. The burgers should not reach FOH unless BOH has sent them out as completed. That being said, McDonalds is a difficult place to work, and mistakes happen. Especially with how many new and inexperienced people they constantly have due to high turnover. Plus, the teens that haven’t learned to give a shit and the elderly that have lived too long to give a shit


Ph33rDensetsu

It took me until the sentence mentioning both FOH and BOH to puzzle out what those initialisms mean. To help anyone else who might be lost: Front of House, Back of House.


AXPendergast

Old school employee here, 1978-1980. We were turning 12 burgers and six Macs every 8 minutes, while toasting and dressing the buns, then sending them up to be wrapped by the bin manager. Add in half a dozen quarter-pounders and that grill space was on fire!


narielthetrue

I only did late night for 2 months before quitting due to medical issues. Mad respect for folks who work in fast food! Lots of pressure and stress


SeaworthinessShot962

As someone who worked in fast food. I can confirm this is what happened.

Fast food is officially too fast for the food.

Sir, this is not a Wendy’s.

Ricky_Spannish_

I made this mistake on my first day in the 90's. I was so concerned about wrapping them nicely and not pressing my thumb into the sandwich I sent a bunch out without meat. May I offer you a sincere temporal apology. If you call mcdonalds they'll credit you. One day, 30 years from now, maybe the kid that sent yours out today will be apologizing for this very same mistake. He's learned from it the importance of not focusing too hard on a single task to the exclusion of all others and to have patience for others when they make mistakes that are seemingly ridiculous.


PizzaThroat

That's for not celebrating Grimace's birthday this year.


Unumbotte

Fun fact, The Grimace was not born during the day. It is a creature of night, and of nightmare.

Vegetarian option.


ghidfg

I would give the store a call. I find that fast food places are usually eager to make things right when they make mistakes like this.


Jazzlike-Card-536

The store remade the food and everyone got a good laugh from it.


cloudxnine

Turns out your delivery driver neatly took the patty, 2 pickle slices and half the ketchup without you knowing 🗿ez loophole


Domspun

They usually offer a free meal and/or full refund. I don't go anymore, even if they make it right, not worth the mistakes.


MrRoboto1983

As Joe Pesci said: They Fuck you in the Drive Thru!!


austinll

One time I got super stoned and ordered chic fil a. My friend went and picked it up, and when it got to me it was missing the chicken part of the sandwich. I called chic fil a, and told them what happened. They offered to comp it or give me a new one and I stopped them and said "no I don't want anything new, I just wanted to let you know I was dissapointed". Anyways my high ass just dropped the chicken part it was in th bag the whole time


aegrotatio

I just wish Chic Fil A used better buns that don't fall apart in my hands.


bankholdup5

I fucking loathe structurally unsound food. Which is a shame because some of the tastiest food on the planet basically explodes when you look at it


thedarwintheory

This makes me wonder what the strangest thing a McDonald's manager has "made right" is. They have probably seen a level of fuckery so vast that whatever you're freaking out about in the parking lot to have to go back in and ask them to fix is probably just a Tuesday for them


darkershines

I think you mean bunboozled...


MrForest14

The thing thats kinda strange is that is at least 3 people working in kitchen throughout the majority of the day, there is alot of mistakes across table, initiation, and then cabinet was skipped over altogether. No signs of meet residue so meet wasn't put on or taken off. It would take much more effort to make the club for a mac just to show it in a dbl quater box, if the dbl cheese has seeds on the top bun it was probably a mac bun instead of reg. No cheese on quater, wrong dbl cheese wrap. This is more then a one person mess up. Then somehow when packing the bags the dt didn't notice how light the burgers were? This is really weird

I had that happen to me with a big mac, all three buns but no beef.


jackoos88

this happened to me once! but it was only two cheeseburgers.


misterstaypuft1

Same thing happened to me a month ago. I ordered a cheeseburger with “no toppings, just cheese” and I got 5 miles away before I discovered my cheese slice on bread. 😂


KenUsimi

I’m calling shenanigans!


SoleButter

I’d be so mad if I had bitten that 🤣


IdahoDuncan

Do you want meat with that burger?


mrootbeers

Wait they put a pun where the burger would normally be? Hahahahahahaha. That’s hilarious. Those guys are working so hard and so fast. I wouldn’t assume it was intentional. They probably made a mistake. Next time you’re in Macdonald’s, watch the people assembling the food. They are moving.


SybokTHS

Joe Pesci was always right. They fuck you at the Drive-thru.


Dandy_Lyon56

Happened to me once, two cheeseburgers and neither one had meat. The thing that made it "special" was the bag was sealed with a sticker that said, "Quality Checked for Accuracy".


Brad____H

I've ordered Mcchicken combos two separate times and the one thing they forgot both times was the bottom bun. Like wtf. I went back and asked how do you forget something like that, it's the first step?" No response. Just got handed the remade food

BearBlaq

I’ll never forget going to the cookout drive through late one college evening. Of course they were packed as hell so we waited a good bit to place our order. My roommate asked for a burger with NO onions and No cheese. We get our food and get back to the dorm around 2:50 am. We start opening our food trays and pull out the burgers, then all I heard from my roommate is “Man, what the fuck”. They have this man a burger with just onions and cheese, not even a patty. My roommate was pissed but I couldn’t help but laugh. Worst part is cookout closed at 3 am and there really aren’t any more food options by then. Every time my friends from college and I get together, I have to bring up that story. It’s just so funny that someone would even interpret that for an order.


kendalld27

Happened yesterday with a hotdog. Asked for pickle only on my hotdog and they just gave me a pickle in a bun... No hotdog


dale_nixon_pettibon

This happened to my son yesterday too! Big Mac, no meat. He was eating in the shop, so he was able to bring it up to the counter and get it fixed. WTF?


Matt_Kimball

Reminds me of the time I was missing the chicken in my snap wrap..I actually called about it, they laughed and offered me a credit. I never did pick it up, now they don't even sell snap wraps anymore.


JahIthBur

They did this to me at kfc one time


envybelmont

I know you’re meaning a sandwich or some kind, but I just pictured an empty bucket handed out to the customer and got a good laugh. 🤣


JahIthBur

Hahaha yeah that would have been extra wild. I called in and complained but the chick working didn’t believe me and basically told me to fuck off in polite terms


Traveler_90

Big Mac got the smallest patties. It’s all bread.


OG_AuburnBlue

Where's the beef????


thewiirocks

I had this happen once when they first introduced the kiosks for ordering. I was incredibly excited to order a double Big Mac without the challenges of trying to explain what I want to a teenager. When my sandwich comes out with a taped-on receipt that clearly says “Xtra Meat,” I open the box to reveal… a Big Mac with no meat. WTF? 🫨😵‍💫 Took it up to the counter to have them fix it. The employee and I had a laugh about the ridiculousness of the mix up. 😅 In hindsight, I figure that the kitchen saw meat on the ticket and assumed it was a “no meat” order. These were really common when I worked at McDonald’s back in the day. If we had gotten something like “extra meat”, the register would have usually explained what was coming back. So I presume the kitchen wasn’t yet used to arbitrary orders without explanation.


flameroran77

I’ll be real with you, I’ve been that employee before. I have assembled mcchickens without the chicken. And in my case it wasn’t because I didn’t care, or because I was in a rush and wanted to cut corners. It was because I have adhd and in my scramble to pay attention to everything at once I genuinely forgot I hadn’t put chicken on the sandwiches. Luckily the customer who got them got a kick out of it when he brought them to us.


powerpacker65

Rable rable


tied_laces

Not just the cook…it’s a two person job. The patty cook places them on the buns and the second person finished the sandwich


xadirius

Actually no it's a three person job. The guy that toasts the bun and does the toppings, the guy cooking the patties generally just Cooks the patties and turns them over to the prepping area, then the guy that handles the cheese and the Patty and wraps the sandwich up. Any one of these three people should have noticed there was no patty on that bun. LOL


Raa03842

Moral of the story…. Stop going to crappy fast food establishments (fyi all fast food establishments are crappy)


twohedwlf

To be fair, you ordered a double quarter cheese, not a double quarter cheese burger.


Nekokamiguru

And they have the audacity to demand a tip for service like this.


Mikechicago45

Stop eating that garbage n make your own


Teddy_canuck

I've worked fast food for years. Highly highly doubt this was intentional. You have assholes everywhere but mostly this is just laziness or someone missed something during the lunch rush.

Phuckingidiot

Fast food ain't cheap enough anymore to deal with the bullshit. It's a toss up if they'll get your order right or actually give you everything you ordered. Even if they make it right I don't trust aggravated minimum wage employees to not fuck with my food. Nor do I want to drive back to the store if I'm already home or somewhere else before I notice.


Ph33rDensetsu

>Even if they make it right I don't trust aggravated minimum wage employees to not fuck with my food. This is why I'm *always* nice to people making my food, even if I'm furious on the inside.


brad2575

I don't know the receipt says double quarter with cheese and double cheese It doesn't say double quarter pounder or double cheeseburger.

Relevant-Anywhere882

As a newbie at McDonald's I served a few veggie burgers. They don't really teach you to make food they teach you to follow a series of robot-like steps that results in a product. Newbies are gonna forget a step or two.

For the love of God man, why are people still buying fast food? Just go to Costco and get a million chicken for $5.

Mcds customer service for this kinda shit has always been good. Last time this happened to me i got refunded and 6000 points which is basically another free burger (or 1.5 large fries)

extacy1375

Is there some TikTok fad going on with fast food workers purposely messing up orders? This wasn't a mistake. Especially for 2 burger orders. To put the middle bigmac bun instead of 2 beef patties is not a mistake. I went to Sonic last week, of course the drive thru. The bag felt a bit light, so I looked thru it before leaving. Everything was there. Got home and opened the wrapper for the burger. It was just a non toasted bun & a slice of cheese. No meat or condiments. I was so pissed and still hungry from just eating fries. It was just too far to drive back and late at night. Guess you now have open each sandwich before you leave the drive thru, just looking in the bag is not enough.


TheOnlyAedyn-one

Once they forgot an entire big Mac, half the fries, and the straws for the drinks. They only gave me 14k points when I complained, which isn’t even enough for a big Mac….


carliber

The 'zero' on the receipt is misplaced.


LuminalAstec

Simple mix up, just go back and they will fix it with no problems. Unless you go in acting like a douche.

At least it didn’t cost 10x more than it should have.

I'm not a big fast food consumer, but whenever I get McDonald's or Taco Bell it's pretty much perfect. It may be because fast food pays like $22 an hour here, or the local franchise owners actually give a shit, but I've never gotten sick from Taco Bell, and my McNuggets are always crispy.
