Reason I am An Asshole #2541752

Here is some good entertainment for $5 on your next lunch break.

Step #1 - Pull up to a busy lunchtime drive though.

Step #2 - Order a fish sandwich. (By sales volume the least ordered item)

Step #3 - Pay for the the item.

Step #4 - Get out of line quickly before you pick up your food and get to a place quickly where you can watch all the cars after you get the wrong orders.

It never ceases to amaze me how many people will drive off without looking at their order. Or the kind of mayhem this can cause during the lunch rush. Don't ask me why I think this is funny it really isn't but I can't help laughing to myself.

This only works on lunch because the dinner rush people are ordering for full families and quickly notice any errors. Plus lunch people are too busy trying to get back to the office to notice anything.

most of the places here have a single window for pay/pick-up. the only exception is mcducks. i guess i could try it there...

A fish sandy would certainly gross me out. I usually do a quick check anymore because everyone is too damn lazy to fill the order properly...my favorite story was when I unwrapped the burger to find a bun with lettuce, tomato, and mustard...no meat.

I'm lovin' it.

haha excellent.

There is also a similar trick you can pull in order to bag a free lunch.

If I ever get a fish sandwich I will know who to blame.

Now see, THIS is funny. I've done this-but not on purpose. After waiting WAY too long for something, I hopped out of line when I could and watched as they gave the wrong orders out. Funny...

Most of the time you can't get out of line though-they have a curb preventing it.

Evil...just evil.

And amusing.

Don't do it to me. I would kill someone if I got a fish sammy instead of a Southern Chicken one.

This makes me so glad that you do not live in SD.

Why have I never thought or heard of this?! Brilliant.

If I’m at a drive-thru and it’s taking too long, I’ll just get out of the car and go for a walk for half an hour. When I get back, I’m much calmer and the fast food joint gets an important message about wasting people’s time.
