More fast food places need a copy of the menu farther back in the drive-through line, or large enough so you can read it before you get to the intercom. I don’t go often enough, or always to the same chain, so I haven’t memorized every place’s food-like products
I stopped at a KFC drive thru after work one evening to pick up some dinner. A woman in a big SUV was in front of me. She just sat there at the speaker for several minutes, then finally said “I don’t know what I want!” I said in a loud stage whisper “Yeah, and some people shouldn’t go through drive thrus!” Oh she got mad, thought she was gonna get out of her car and kick my ass.
When i worked at a pizza place, i would ask people their names for their orders. The amount of “uhhhh…” I got from that question was incredible, and i included it on their ticket. They would be “uhhhh Jeff” or “uhhh Sam” and then on a few glorious occasions, i would hear one of my coworkers call out “i have an order for uhhh Jeff” and it made working there bearable for another few years.
Put your menu where somebody can read it before they’re asked to order and have it display the entire menu, not be a screen that rotates portions of it. Drive-thru postings are done poorly so they’ll look nice but are not designed to be functional. This is primarily the fault of the designers of drive-thrus and not the people ordering.
Then have your damn menus BEFORE and at the order box, half the time me and my mom never even know what is on the menu until they are asking us for the order
Well then don’t have the only menu right up beside the goddamn speaker, all the while strobing the fucking thing between 3 different screens of advertisements like a banned pokemon episode before you can read a single line.
Hey some of us have brain farts. Some farts are just more public than others.
can i get uuhhh mufukin uuuuhh
“Uhhhh” is the sound of the human loading screen
Someones gotta add a menu item called the “Uhhhh” burger. It would sell so well.
I practice out loud while waiting in line.
I half expected a “HOOOOOOOOOOO YAAAAAAA!”
https://youtu.be/h1fBYUWxaKQ makem say uhhhh
Why am I picturing Butt-head ordering?
Can I get uhhhhh boneless pizza
They’re just McRibbing you.
If they would stop changing the menu so drastically, and stop having animations cover the menu people would know their options.
“Make ’em say UHHHHHHH, NA NA NA NA!”
Boneless pizza with uhhh a 2 liter coke
Na na na na!
I’m the colonel of the motherfuckin’ tank
Master P working at McDonald’s now?!

If they quoted me it would be:
> “I’d like a… hold on until the menu rotates back to the page I’m interested in… one sec… just another couple seconds…

Just remember P.O.O.P.
lucky for me I don’t say “uuhhhhh” I just elongate the “a”. much more dignified.
“Can I get aaaaaaaaaaa #3?”

The proper response is “Na nah na nah”.

“Y’all got fiestas?”
“Can I get a uhhhhh Liter of Cola?”
I often wonder if the workers have me pegged as that guy for the way I order, usually pausing for feedback.
“ah, yes. Can I please order a large Number 1.”
-what to drink
“A large Coke with light ice please.”
-okay, anything else.
I could just belt out the entire order but have no idea if they’ll be experienced enough to just mark it all down.
Then I worry about the order their Register lets them input data.
Should I say a Large Number One with a Coke with Light Ice?
or a Number One with a Large Coke with Light Ice?
I’m obviously just over thinking and trying to be too accommodating.
That’s McDonald’s fault for not putting a menu both BEFORE the squawk-box AND at the squawk-box.
I can’t figure out what I want while I’m waiting in line if the only time I get to see the menu is right where I’m asked what I want.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve thought to myself while 3 cars back, “man, if only I could see a menu RIGHT NOW.”
Also those damn video screens that only show cryptic info and switch every 3 seconds don’t help.
Oh kirksville. What a classy place haha
Can I get uh wut wut. Uh, medium Jay z, and a small coffee with sugar.
Post the fucking menu somewhere that I can see it besides right in front of the goddamn speaker.
“Patrick, if I could make a suggestion. Why don’t you order a krabby patty?”
“Great idea Squidward. One krabby patty please.”
“Will that be for here or to go?”
“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
Master P intensifies.

Can I get uhhh… two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda.

Almost accurate, except I’ve caught myself just saying it all as one word. “Canigetuuuuuuuuh…..”
It’s crazy how many people get in line without knowing what they want.
Looking at my gf here.
Well then don’t have the only menu right up beside the goddamn speaker, all the while strobing the fucking thing between 3 different screens of advertisements like a banned pokemon episode before you can read a single line.
Maybe if they just showed the menu instead of it being screens flipping around constantly I could tell you what I want!
