So I go to McDonald's since I'm sick and don't feel like cooking,
and order a big mac meal and head home. I get home and to my
amazement there's no burger...on my burger. Initially I wanted to
be upset, as a paying customer, and blame whoever it is that made
the sandwich for such a stupid silly mistake. However, as someone
who has worked in the service industry for a long time I couldn't
help but to laugh. It really made me reflect on some of my worst
days where I've made silly mistakes and had to stand silently while
getting screamed at by some angry middle aged Karen lady about how
stupid and uneducated I must be. I headed back to McDonalds to show
them and get a corrected one and we all had a great laugh about it.
I was happy to laugh with the staff and wait for a fresh one. We,
as humans, all make mistakes and no matter how stupid or silly it
may seem, it happens! Not every situation involving simple mistakes
needs to be hostile or make the individual feel belittled. We have
all forgotten to put the Big mac on the Big mac at some point. Be
kind❤
