While RQS and I were out this weekend, we turned into a Mickey D's to eat. And guess what we saw in the Drive-Thru lane: A Checker Cab! If one looks carefully at the car from all angles, it's easy to tell that this car is not registered as a cab. Instead, it was registered as a Historical Vehicle (25+ Years Old), and limited to 2,000 miles of driving each year. They enjoyed seeing me take pictures of the car, and I enjoyed doing so. May they have many more enjoyable miles to go in this retired cab.
Once I shot the above picture, we went inside for lunch. Not only did they get the order wrong, but they did not bring the meals to the table as ordered at the kiosk. (We picked up a table number, and we were called to pick up the bag with our food.) Although RQS got what she ordered, I ordered a Big Mac meal and received a Quarter Pounder meal and a small order of nuggets. And the nuggets had less than no flavor. There was no ketchup in the pumps - we had to ask for packets. The washroom had a funky smell. And we ended up with a list of 7 complaint items which I intended to forward to McDonald's headquarters.
When we got back home, I sent off my complaints to McDonald's - and received a call back a couple of hours later. I guess the parent organization actually cares that customers have an enjoyable experience at their stores.
