What is your biggest pet peeve....

when dining in a fast food restaurant? I have several, but my biggest is to wait forever in line, order, get my food and when finally at the table ready to eat, discover that something was left out of the order!

Oh, I have a long list. First of all, I almost never go to fast food, except with my clients. A real recent trend is not to give receipts. Since I need to turn in receipts for the individuals who receive residential support, and I need to turn in receipts for myself to get reimbursed, this is a real problem. Some places are not very cooperative about it or understanding either. Next pet peeve, a restaurant with poor handicapped facilities as far as even getting in the door. Also no place to move a chair so I can fit a wheel chair at a table. Or it is too tight for a large person to move around comfortably. I also do not like when tables have not been cleaned and there are no napkins or straws available.

Yes I agree and the bad news is this happens nearly every single time. The other thing I don't like is the food is cold.

I hate when the perso in front of you, who just happens to have been in line for the same 15 minutes that you have, gets to the counter and can't decide what they would like to eat. How can you be in line that long and still have no idea what tickles your food fancy? It's either a burger or chicken, how hard is that?

I agree, finding something missing after going through the drive-thru is annoying. But, when eating in my biggest pet peeve is when people come and sit at the table right next to you when the restaurant is empty. I know its kind of silly, but its just something that annoys me to no end. *LoL*

Dirty floors and no clean tables to eat at and bad customer service.

I really hate when an item is missing from an order even more when I'm in the drive through lane. The idea of being in the drive through is not to have to get out of the car. If we're talking fast food-food, I really hate it when the french fries aren't fresh. If I'm going for the grease, I want it just fried.

Cold coffee and fries. If I order these foods and find that they are cold, I go right to the counter and ask for hot coffee and/or warm fries, whatever. Another pet peeve is the higher prices of so-called "basic" items such as hamburgers. White Castle hamburgers are way too expensive.
