The napkins thing is a thing at McD near me.

You have to stand there and wait for about five minutes to flag down a member of staff (they’re all in the back now due to the self serve kiosks). The same for sauces. Which to me says that my time is meaningless to them. They don’t trust us to not take too many but they’re also too lazy to put some in every customers bag.

I will no longer eat there due to this and the crazy prices for the same mediocre food.

Fucking ghouls. Yet we have debates at work all the time and I’m seen as some weirdo for not wanting to be fleeced by every company on the planet.

Be like me and steal what you can from these companies. Commit delivery fraud (item never arrived when it did). Raise chargebacks etc. take what you can as that’s what they’re doing. Just don’t do it to sole businesses.

Maybe they just didn’t restock the napkins? Dude went to Taco Bell and almost had an aneurysm

What do you expect from a place like Taco Bell? You are enabling their behavior by giving them money.

It's because of the napkin gnomes. Nobody can ever catch them.

We really can vote with our dollars. The issue is that we don’t (I’m point right at myself here).

Don’t buy the things, we probably don’t need em.

The US has not set up a system that compensates properly. Most European countries have a security net in place when capitalism squeezes regular people. The US does not. You're on your own.

Also everything breaks in five years at best. Doesn't matter how much you spend, basically everything is shit quality minimum viable products.

It's a shame so much time has passed for the public to even recall how much Teddy fought for the average Joe blow public with his first deal. He fought the corporate overloads and they couldn't believe he couldn't be bribed like those before him and since.

The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life. -Theodore Roosevelt

"WE" don't. You all might. Playing my role as a "consumer" I expect a certain level of customer service. If it doesn't meet my standard, I stop consuming.

If it isn't meeting your standard, stop.

bruh they just didn't have napkins, the employees probably just didn't give a shit

I mean things are getting shittier but you're complaining about napkins?

Its shitty only for the poor. Rich has the best life there. If you're rich , move to US Of A

Ask for napkins, if they won't give you any, pour a soda out on the counter and steal some of the paper towels they use to clean it up. (Actually don't, this method isn't nice for the workers)

It's going to be a fun next few years. Corpo dickheads keep trying to make another nickel next quarter, but more and more people have had enough. If food is too expensive, people will start stealing it, and the police can't be everywhere. Better hope there isnt 't some global pandemic or something that would suddenly make it acceptable to wear a mask in public.
