#24: There's a difference between the two now?

McDonald's is an interesting place. Of course, that's only if your definition of "interesting" involves poor sanitary conditions, obesity-inducing food, and grumpy workers.

One time when driving through that handy-dandy drive-thru (which I only recently realized actually has a parking space for) the worker there gave me the atypical "Hi, how are you today" muttered greeting that they've been brainwashed into giving.

Being in a cheerful mood, I couldn't help but tell her I was fine, and asked her how she was doing. She suddenly stopped what she was doing, looked at me, and bluntly said, "I work at McDonald's."

Not planning on losing this mood I had, I cheerfully answered, "Well, you've got to get off at some point, don't you?" She answered, "Well, do you want to help me with that?"

… I still wonder what that McGriddle would've tasted like.
