    I manage a gas station.

    When people complain to me about the gas prices like I personally made the decision to jump it up to $4.09 a gallon.

      When restaurants are out of something on the menu.

      Went to Subway tonight while on lunch break. Been craving one of the new Chicken Pizzioli sandwiches. Turns out they didn't have the bread i always get, or any pepperoni. So i said **** it, i wanted one so bad anyways. Then they want to charge me full price of the sub without the pepperoni. I refused to pay full price and ended up just walking out from frustration.

      This Subway was inside a Love's truck stop BTW. Guess i should have expected this.

        Haha, i got the same thing when i worked at a steak house. I used to be one of the guys that seats people, and if we were packed I would tell them it would be a 15 or so minute wait. And people used to get PO'd at me for it like it was my fault everyone eats dinner at 6 lol.

          I always have that problem with ice cream at McDonalds. Everytime I've gone through the drive through for an ice cream cone, their machine was always broken.

            People who do not brush the snow off the roof of their vehicle. I was stuck behind an SUV this afternoon where it felt like I was driving directly into a blizzard.

              So do you assume every place you go to eat has an endless supply of food? Like they all have a pack of kebbler elves in there stock rooms producing everything? not trying to be a jerk at all dont take it that way but its amazing people complain about the individuals that slave for crap pay to feed millions of lazy people who could easily fix there own food

                I see you're point, but it's not really relevant. Just because they make minimum wage or whatever isn't an excuse for their manager(who wouldn't make minimum wage) or whoever is in charge to let them run out of pepperoni.

                  I manage a very successful pizza place in my area and it happens more than you think. Cant just pick up a phone and have your "pepperoni guy" bring you more on a seconds notice. Most places only get one to two deliveries a week and you can never tell what kind of buisness your gonna have. And you may also have a tightwad owner who montiors your ordering and you have your hands tied and just have to deal with it.

                      I can see it happening sometimes, but this place and McDonald's ice cream/McFlurry machine is always out of commission. If they are out......make a sign or something. Don't let me order it then say were out.

                        Corporate won't allow that. I use to have to explain that to customers all the time when I worked at Walmart and people would say the same thing, post a sign that xxxxxxx is sold out.

                        So I am assuming it is the same way in fast food restaurants.
