McRib is returning!

Never had a McRib, probably won't try one but if you like it, eat it. More power to ya! It's kinda nice to see people getting excited about something they enjoy.
 
You and I go to very different McDonalds then. Yesterday I presented them one of those instant winner game pieces that awarded me a free Big Mac after I ordered one. She looked at it like it was written in Latin. So she gets another cashier that was working the drive thru who then looks at it like it was written in Klingon. Finally a third person was able to unlock the mystery of the promotion they’ve been running for the past two or three weeks and touch the right buttons on the screen to comp the Big Mac.

:laughing wow

Clearly you don't appreciate how lucky you are that it only took three MCD employees to figure it out.

I've never had a McRib or a Big Mac. I don't think I'm missing out.
 
Mmm, mechanically separated, reconstituted meat product that's pressed into the shape of ribs. Or maybe it's injection molded?

My coworker gave my the game piece and said hey grab me a Big Mac while your there and here use this. 5 seconds into the transaction and the absolute befuddlement on the face of the first cashier, I was ready to just cut bait and just pay for his Big Mac to put an end to the misery quickly. Each new person would ask me if I wanted a Big Mac as if I hadn’t already ordered it.

So this McDonalds actually has touch screen kiosks where you can order and pay by yourself. It works quite well. However since I was redeeming this stupid game piece and actually had to use the cashier, I quickly saw how fast the cashier training has gone downhill since this McDonald’s out the kiosks in several months ago.
 
Generally I hate self checkout kiosks but it makes so.much sense at a fast food place. Let me hide my shame. Better yet, just shoot it out of the building like that 3 flies up football launcher when in was a kid. I dont need to interact with anyone

No they’re amazing. Almost completely eliminates anything getting lost in translation. Ever say no onions only to wind up with what apparently they thought you said was “extra” onions? Of course there’s other links in the chain where the ball can be dropped, but the kiosk at least one human factor that is usually the source of the most frustration when going to a fast food place. I actually prefer it over the laziness of being able to sit in my car and just order in the drive thru.

Complaining about the ineptitude of McDonalds workers is just too easy. Like talking about something involving going to the airport always turns into a TSA sucks conversation.

Let’s all return to the gloriousness that is the mighty McRib.
 
I've never had a McRib...I imagine if I want to evacuate my bowels in a hurry, I'd give it a shot...
 
I could advise how to make a good McRissole. But then I would get shot down by a Messerschmidt
 
I used to really like them. But last year something changed about the taste. It just doesn't taste good anymore. It's more bland like something is different in them, or missing. I tried one from three different locations. Same thing. I'm officially off the McRib.
