Free breakfast

Post by Grntea » Sat Nov 11, 2023 9:47 am

Went to the advertised "Free Breakfast for Veterans" today at McDonald's. After waiting almost 10 min for someone to come to the counter, I was informed our local McD's was NOT participating. The lady told me it was the owner's decision - he owns 19 McD's. Not to be wining - my wife and I are both veterans and we live in a community that host 6 military bases. So-o-o-o we went across the street to Wendy's and had their FREE Veteran's Day breakfast - and it was GREAT. BEST BREAKFAST I ever had. Just as a side note - I will NEVER eat at another McD's.

Seriously ? A little research in to Big Mac's operations and you would not
eat that crap if they paid you. Well seasoned fingernail clippings and dog
dirt, with a liberal slathering of carcinogens. Nevermind the woke corporate
BS. Go find a small business cafe, even if the food isn't free. Your organs
will appreciate the effort.
More people are doing it today than ever before !

Got an email from our daughter-in-law to show me all the free meals and enticements various places were offering. I thanked her, and responded that "I enjoy the greater reward of acknowledgement and respect. I hesitate when I feel I'm taking advantage of a business trying to make an honest living."
"Let's Figgur it owt!" Just fix it (right), and make it work.....
Aah-OO-Gah! (and), "Happy T-ing!"

Thats so funny Burger, here in NZ McD's have a great reputation and quality good food standards. However, Wendy's - oh dear that is very poor stuff and not at all appetizing......

Guess it all has to do with the franchisees?
