We went to the KFC on Michigan Ave (downtown) for dinner tonight. While enduring a wait of approximately 12 minutes for our food (with a less-than-patient toddler in tow), I witnessed two people trying to scam the cashier for either free food or refunds.
First, a very rotund young ghetto queen wearing a skin-tight midriff (by that I mean massive-gut) baring tank top, stomped up to the counter ignoring all other patrons. She insisted that that drive-thru employee shorted her on cole slaw. The cashier checked the order and told the plump customer that she was not charged for any extra cole slaw. After several minutes of snotty back-and-forth between the two, the cashier and manager relented and gave the lady her $1 or whatever it was to make up for the missing slaw.
Almost immediately after cole slaw girl squeezed her way through the exit door, a ghetto boo came in and walked up to the counter. The cashier asked if she could help him. That’s when he unintelligibly started muttering about being shorted some biscuits from an order earlier in the day. He ended his rant with “just give me five biscuits.” The cashier brought up his order on the screen, discovering that he had ordered two meals. Each meal comes with ONE biscuit. She told him this and he just said, “ok, just give me five biscuits then,” while waving a $20 in her face.
I’m no longer eating fast food, particularly chicken, in a downtown / hospital vicinity party of town.
