Have It Your Way at Burger King

I have never worked in the fast food industry. By the time I was looking for a job, I jumped right to busser at Juanita's Mexican Food in Denver because I was so advanced in the art of food service. Sadly, I missed out on the fun that is drive-through windows, all-you-can-eat french fries and the lovely customers like this one who lost her shit at a Burger King this week. Usually, she is probably a soft delicate flower of femininity, but not this day. Apparently, her Whopper, Jr. took too long so she felt like the best way to show her dissatisfaction with the service was to slap an employee, pull some hair, climb up on the counter, hit someone with a plastic container and throw napkins all over the place. Oh yeah. And she did it all while in a bikini, because she's classy like that.



I don't get it. All this over a Whopper, Junior? It's not like it's a Mexi Melt from Taco Bell or something. If they fucked up your Mexi Melt, by all means, go for it. Kick some Taco Bell ass. But this Burger King, honey. Who cares? Of course she was arrested and it came out that she is the mother of four. Three of her kids were with her when all this went down because she is real big on providing positive role models for her children. You can be sure that the next time her daughter wants an extra chicken finger at the school cafeteria, the six year old will strip down to her bikini and start going to town on some lunch lady, slapping her with a lunch box and throwing Crayons at her.

My favorite part of the article on The Smoking Gun:
"When I walked in they had no smiles on their faces. We weren’t treated fairly." Having herself previously worked at McDonald’s and Church’s Chicken, Smith added, “I know how to greet my customers.”
Oh, so it's the employees' fault? They didn't have smiles on their faces because they are working at a fucking Burger King. In Florida. During Spring Break. Can you blame them? I'm surprised they didn't all have suicide notes pinned to their shirts after they opened the doors and saw that their whole clientele was in bathing suits that day. I don't like Whoppers, but to eat one while looking at women in bikinis makes me wanna puke a little bit. Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce, bitches in bikinis might upset us.

I cannot beleive that people would act like that EVER in public. How embarrassing...why anyone would choose to work in the hood is beyond me.

What ever happened to "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service"...and self respect?

Jennifer, if you live in the hood, you don't choose to work in the hood, you work where you can get to work, where you know the culture.

I thought you had to be dressed in shirt and shoes to be served at BK. That is what the sign says.

Hopefully, they called the police for the damage she caused and the hitting of other people.

This is insane, how can anyone behave in such an embarrassing and idiotic way in public, with her kids watching! Over a burger! If she wasn't satisfied with the service, why not just say so, instead of trashing the place in your bikini like a cavewoman. Who orders burgers in a bikini anyway? Another great impression of the US

Jennifer,

I wasn't working in the hood until my original store closed and they transferred me. It was a culture shock, but I did it for three years before finding a better job. In that time, I was threatened with bodily harm by a fellow co-worker over a quarter when she came in as a customer on her day off. Yeah, classy area.

Hiya Bitchy! I know this is a little off timeline but I just found you a few months ago. Since I enjoy your wit and wisdom so much I decided to read your entire blog back to front stating with the oldest post and this is the point I have progressed to. This particular BK is right across the street from my restaurant. Just wanted to give you a little update...Trashy McTrashytrash was arrested for violation of probation, and has now been been sentenced to PRISON for her antics in our little local BK! http://bit.ly/XyFx0S Oh and BTW during spring break they go EVERYWHERE in bikinis, they're tourists, they're drunk, they're walking. Locals become inured to it. We have a little saying down here I thought you might like: "Come on vacation, leave on probation, come back on violation!
