    I think there needs to be drive thru etiquette followed by those inside the store. something that requires them to wait till I am done giving my order. yes today's lunch was frustrating and I just wanted to grab a quick bite so I could come back to work. :wtf:

      Are you saying you should be served first when you didn't get out of your car and those that took the time to go in should be second?

        No, rather I was saying when I am giving my order let me finish giving it before you start talking over me and guessing the rest of my order.

          OK, I misunderstood. However, they are food experts. Maybe you should just listen? :)

              Sure. If you were offered that job would you take it? Of course not, because you don't have what it takes. They are around delicious high quality food all day. Just trust them. Actually better yet, don't go to any food establishment that has a drive through, period. That's probably better advice.

                                It seems fair to me also that if you into the store you get priority, but in my experience the drive through is always faster. Clearing the cars is priority.

                                What me worry?

                                  It's the same thing with phones. If I am standing in line for 5 minutes and the phone rings why do you answer it? I have been waiting, I should get priority.
