Do you tidy your rubbish at KFC/McD's/BK?

NeverWinter · 13 Apr 2011 at 07:52

I rarely go to these places but when I do, I generally leave the mess. It's not like they have a self clean policy

It's a fast rubbish restaurant and mine goes in the bin.

Ofcourse.

Well since Neverwinter has been the first to admit to being a slob let me say shame on you, it takes 10 seconds extra effort on the way out to drop the stuff in a bin and save someone else the trouble.

As someone who has worked at McDonalds I must say the "they have staff to pick it up so why should I" attitude disgusts me.

I don't go round to friends and family and think hell it's not my house why should I make any effort to leave it tidy.

Seems like a simple thing to pick up after yourself but some people can't be bothered and it's this can't be bothered attitude that has made the world we live in the way it is today.

My little 3 year old daughter always says please and thank you or sorry if she bumps into someone and I'm shocked how many people in everyday life are surprised to see a polite little girl.

Of course you do otherwise you ain't got manners.

At least that's my point of view

That's why you should clear up yourself. It's not like you're paying for anyone else to do it.

Of course I do - the bins are provided for customer use.

You don't even get knives or forks, and absolutely nothing comes with a beurre blanc sauce!!!

Yes, always tidy up after me, the bins aren't for decoration you know!

Larkspeed · 13 Apr 2011 at 08:21

Totally off topic but my wife and I went into McDonald's a couple of weeks ago and ordered 2 big tasty meals.

I swear to god the little blonde girl behind the counter looked at my wife and asked "what kind of burgers would you like with those"

I always say please and thank-you and I am not a slob - however, it is billed as a restaurant and as such when I go to restaurants I don't expect to clean up the mess. Sometimes, I do put the rubbish in the bin, it all depends how I'm feeling on the day.

Not that I eat in fast food places but if I did then this.

Why have staff at all, why not have a burger vending machine, the bins for people to diligently dispose of the packaging within so they can feel some how morally validated having just eaten cheap crap food in some chav infested dive. Then why stop there, mop and bucket in the corner so you can give the place the once over on the way out, just to be completely secure that you are a 'good' person and haven't got any self esteem issues that need to allayed by performing completely disingenuous 'good' deeds.

I always clean up after myself. It takes minimum effort and it frees up the table quicker for another customer, which can be important during the busier periods.

Do you work for the company? Don't worry about it then...

Bleek · 13 Apr 2011 at 08:45

I don't eat at those places but I take it from the outcry they don't have table service, so who removes and washes the plates?
