Thanks John.

That explains the trumpet duct-taped to the microphone.

If you ever do say it, just don't go back there unless you don't mind some extra "matter" in your meal.

I hate to sound cynical but I suspect that happens A LOT (even to polite patrons) just out of spite for their customers.

Todd, we have been loving Canes here in BR for many years now..great stuff..if those guys ever went national, they would make buckets of money!!!

I hate the latest trend, where the restaurants have pre-recorded greetings for the drive thru, saying stuff like, "Welcome to Taco Bell--would you like to try our new Super-Deluxe Mexi-Melt on a stick?" Your natural reaction is to respond immediately, but the order taker is usually not ready for you to speak, so you end up having to repeat everything.

I have a friend who works for AT&T, and apparently the next big thing is nationally centralized drive through order taking. When you pull up to a drive through in a Chicago-area McDonald's, you may be speaking to a person in Houston. That way, the restaurants can do with fewer people (in theory, at least).

Woah, there's one in New Orleans now??? I've lost about 5 pounds since leaving LSU just because there weren't any around here. Where exactly is it (site doesn't seem to work)?
