Working at a drive-through (Dunkin Donuts) I must say that the job is good, despite my hatred of coffee and all things related, because I get a regular salary (like min wage) plus tips, so it leads to extra money.
I must say however that people need to learn what is an approiate order in a drivethru, a proper order is maybe at most 3 coffees and maybe a bakery item (sandwich, donuts, muffins), this is because we are timed for each order and we can't get an acceptable time if you spend the entire time ordering. Also, as much as you might hope, we are not phsycic, this leads me to this, a typical case of our phsycic abilities is people go, "uhh, medium coffee cream and sugar" then, "anything else?" next, "no" then, "$1.79 drive up," then after paying and receiving the coffee they go, "what the hell? I wanted iced."
Damnit if you want iced coffee say iced coffee, if you want decaf say decaf if you want milk and splenda or any other sweetener other than sugar say so and how many of each. Don't go, "Medium regular coffee," because the next question is, "Cream and Sugar?" which leads to an indignant, "No Milk and Splenda." Regualar in our trade regular means cream and sugar not anything else. Also if you want ice cream from Baskin Robins, Don't ask for it through the drive, are you really that lazy to go in to the store. Finally if you need to ask what kind of donuts we have you aren't allowed to order through the drivethru.
I know most of you will respond indignatntly to this but I must say try being a person in a drive through and tell me how you feel.

Sounds like a career at Dunkin Donuts is a fucking godsend.

Kinda Like Jesus. Makes me think of an old joke:
Q. What's the hardest part of committing suicide by crucifixion?
A. There's no easy way to get that last nail in.
As for you, I have a hammer and would love to help.

i'll start this off by stating that i'm pretty ignorant. now that that's out of the way, i have to ask you this: WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU CARE ABOUT TIMING IF YOU WORK AT DUNKIN DONUTS? it's not like you're a doctor and have to do surgery in a certain amount of time. corporate isn't gonna call you and say "ummmm johnny, we noticed that you were 2 seconds over on your time. we're gonna have to fire you." and if they do, so what? go to starbucks across the street and they'll hire you in no time.

I love drive thru's, what could be better than getting tasty food without even having to leave your car! I do, however, hate the fucking tards that work at most of them. I understand that over in the US perfectly normal, intelligent people can end up working in drive thrus, BUT over here in the UK you only end up working at one if you've really fucked up your life or if your a complete TARD! We have some of the stupidest, ugliest, lowlife, tard scum working at our drive thrus.

This makes sense. You are aware of how irritating these people are, and you are trying to make a difference.
