    I was a DTWA years ago. I always hated it that the speakers picked up engine sounds better than human voice sounds. And when I was already busy, I’d get another customer, I’d say “Thank you for choosing (name), please hold” and they’d go right ahead with making their order as if it didn’t matter to them that I needed to first take care of other customers who were there first.

    Working at a Dairy Queen drive through for 8 years made me hate air conditioning (also because my POS Ranger didn’t have it) since at low RPM, the A/C compressor is louder than the engine.

    The other thing I hated was people who’d let their 4 year old order…especially if there was a line.

    I hate the new automatic ones that say “go ahead with your order”. then after you do … a live person comes on and says to wait a few seconds.

    That’s the whole point. The customers did not understand a word you said. They thought you were saying, “Please order when ready.”

    I don’t know why they can’t just let the customers press the buttons to choose what they want. It would eliminate sxxqh AND the total would come up with a list of what was ordered, so if the customer makes a mistake it’s HIS/Her fault!

    Today’s comic strip has left me totally in the dark.
    Would someone be kind enough to “translate” the conversation for ignorant me please?

    That’s because your business promotes itself as FAST food. Folks expect food to be fast (get it?)
    Your compaint should have been voiced to management as: “Get me some help!”

    You don’t save any time at the drive-through. Go inside and get it to go.

    They are all talking like they sound when you’re in your car at a drive-thru.
    You know, the SCCCCCCCH and GRGGGG sounds that the speakers make as you’re trying to make out what they are saying.

    Good advice for able bodied people and would thin out the line for us disabled.
