there i was, hungry for food and McDonald’s came to mind. i ordered a value meal for takeaway and the cashier informed me i had to wait for 3 minutes for my burger. she told me to sit down.
and so i did. assuming she’d bring my order to me, i flipped through a copy of The Sun while waiting.
a while later, i got tired of waiting, and noticed someone who came after me collecting his takeaway order.
i got up and walked to the cashier, and i saw her gesture towards me while looking at her colleagues, as if to say, “ah, there she is!”
my wait felt like forever. i was definitely cranky.
“kenapa lama sangat?” i asked.
“ha? dah lama siap, cik!” she answered.
“tapi, kamu minta saya duduk dan tunggu, kan?”
“order cik dah lama siap!” she repeated.
forget speaking proper malay:
“you suruh saya duduk tunggu, saya duduk tunggu lah. sekarang, fries saya ni, dah sejuk lah, macam mana?” i retorted.
she just looked away.
what is wrong with the picture? was it a miscommunication? i didn’t think so.
fastfood service can be so crap at times.
