Have It Your Way
You can. Or so all those fast food places claim. And most of the time I do end up “customizing” my order. No pickles, hold the onion, add cheese, etc. But it’s nice to be able to walk into a place and just order up the item on the menu without having to change it. This is the nice thing about going to Burger King. I order the chicken sandwich. It comes with lettuce and mayo, which is fine by me. So I just tell them I want the #9 value meal, or combo or whatever they call it. Nice and simple. No confusion.
Whenever I go to Wendy’s I have to order it with no POT (pickles, onions or tomatoes). At McDonald’s I say “only ketchup”, because I hate that their onions are tiny little pieces that can’t be picked off a sandwich. At Arby’s I could order the roast beef straight up, but a girl’s gotta have her cheese, so I have to order it with cheese or get a cup of cheddar on the side and add it myself.
At Burger King, it’s already the way I like it, so there’s no fuss, no confusion, no praying they get it right, because it’s not the usual way. It’s so much easier and the person behind the counter ringing up my order tends to be much friendlier when I don’t start changing how my sandwich is made.
If only they were always as nice and friendly as they are on the commercials.
