Since when did McDonalds have a host? Isn’t the point of fast food for me to have as little contact with the employees as possible. I don’t go to McDonalds for the atmosphere or for a rousing conversation. It is all about efficiency and convenience. Get in, get out.
So, last night, I went to McDonalds with my family. We have other places to be, so this meal is all about speed. We are eating quietly and this old lady approaches me and my mom.
“Good evening ladies. My name is Bev and I am your hostess for the night. If you ladies have any questions or comments please let me know.”
But that wasn’t all. She kept coming back and telling/asking us more things.
“Would you ladies like a refill on your drinks? Compliments of McDonalds.”
“We have a special on right now, two pies for $1.39. Can I interest you in some?”
“Everyone loves McDonald Gift Certificate and today only, they are on sale! You can purchase them from me, or one of our other customer service representatives. Gift Certificates make the perfect gift for everyone, teachers, neighbours, family friends.”
There was no escape. Maybe this lady was really into her job. And maybe people enjoy getting interrupted continually. Just beware next time or use the drive thru.
Happy Friday! Enjoy your weekend. And the time spent with me.

that job must be the worst in the world. That lady must have gotten to work that day, saw "hostess" by her name on the schedule, and nearly went home to poke her eyes out.
