"McDonald's: I'm lovin'it" - Well, not quite!

The girls and I went shopping this morning and before I knew it it was lunch time. I knew it needed to be fast since I had to get Ali home for nap so we stopped at McDonald's. It is fast and has outdoor seating so I didn't have to take the kids jackets off which always saves time. Anyway, I went in to order our food. I order 3 hamburgers without onion. The cashier asked if I spoke English. I said yes. He said, "no special orders only what is on the menu." I had to laugh. Can you imagine being told in the U.S. at a McDonald's or Burker King that you couldn't get something the way you like it??!! It may be the golden arches but apparently I can only be "lovin' it" (the McD slogan) my way in the US, otherwise I have to love it their way. The humor was compounded when after getting my order together and accepting my money he offered to carry my food to a table for me. So the kitchen staff can't take the extra minute to put a hamburger in the microwave but the cashier can walk my stuff to a table out in front of the restaurant! Oh well, such is life. At least he carried my food for me.
