Went to Taco Bell last night at 1 AM to get my TB-Fix™ that I was cravin'.
I pull up to the drive thru window to see a haggard man in his 50's to 60's, and I could just see the pain and defeat in his eyes and demeanor. What the fuck, Taco Bell? When I roll up to your late night drive-thru, I expect to soak in the misery of some pimple-faced punk kid working late at night, not some poor fucking old man. Shit made me so depressed that I barely finished my double chalupa box. Anyone else know these feels?
Thomas Clark
Yeah well maybe you should have voted for Bernie then
Mason Diaz
I saw a middle-aged grocery store stocker getting reamed by some kid manager who couldn't have been thirty. Good grief, I don't know if I could stick it out if I was that hard-up at 50.
Sebastian Long
I go to taco bell once in a while after work on Friday. Even though I only go once every two or three weeks, this autistic looking guy working the drive thru window recognizes me. Last time I went and pulled up to the window he said "Hey it's James Bond!" I have no fucking idea why. I guess because I was wearing a collared shirt and tie and had a sport coat in the passenger seat? Anyway I haven't been back since then. I don't want some fucking faggot making jokes at me at the window. Just give me my damn food and stick to the formalities.

/pol/ really did infect every board.

A lot of these old people aren't even poor, they have plenty saved up in retirement.
They're just super bored and lonely, and want to stay occupied.
Jackson Thompson
In spite of making a good living I'm fucking horrible with money and honestly see myself doing this in the future unless I take myself out first.
That being said, I feel for the guy and good for taco bell for giving him the cake job instead of staffing some cute high school qt and throwing him back behind the scenes for shit work
>t. Former McDonald's drive thru teen kid

At 1 in the fucking morning? Nah, bro. The dude looked fucking miserable. Nobody in their right mind would voluntarily choose a graveyard shift at TB, taking orders all night for obnoxious stoners while your staff of high school dropouts fuck up every order. He had the face of a man fallen on hard times.
Cooper Sanders
maybe you should go in tonight and kiss him
Kevin Russell
I don't know if that's necessary. I gave him a $20 bill and told him to keep the change (my order was $17.30). He kind of just looked at me in confusion for a few seconds before closing the window again and starting the order. I did wish him to have a really great night when he handed me my bag and it looked like he sort of started to smile, so maybe I broke through something there, boys!
Dominic Sanders
>smile and then maybe he'll drive away
Anthony Johnson
>I gave him a $20 bill and told him to keep the change (my order was $17.30).
I'm sure your measly tip really cheered him up. Wouldn't be surprised if he committed suicide when he got home that morning haha holy fuck dude you really spent 17 bucks on yourself at Tbell and gave him a 20 and said keep the change. Hahahah
Nicholas Smith
Has anyone ever met a cutie at the drive thru window?
Joshua Wilson
he was probably insulted by some faggot feeling sorry for him and giving him $2.70
Brayden Taylor
50s and 60s is the new 20s and 30s not sure what youre talking about
Jordan Cooper
I know that feel OP, I went to WalMart the other day for condoms and saw that .300BLK was on sale, so I asked this old patronly looking guy to open the ammo case and he looked like he wanted to die. I wonder what his small gunshop was like before the WalMart put him out of business? :(
Connor Gonzalez
>millenial syndrome
Perhaps if you got off the tit, you'd learn life is never what you think it will be.
Oliver Russell
Nah, I didn't want the dollar to be worthless in 10 years.
Sebastian Wilson
The kinds of people who work at fast food restaurants generally have some sort of personality disorder or reason why they couldn't work in a real job.
Jaxon Scott
tell that to george clooney, all he does is eat expensive food all day and bang some hot chick with a thigh gap
Jose Robinson
Met, like had a convo, got digits and cocktails? Or just seen when handed fat sandwich? I've seen. Got hit on. Never met. To me, they are all single mothers with half black children and ridiculously jealous ex-boyfriends.
Evan Ross
You've never worked fast food. That "tip" wasnt a tip. It just means you fucked up his till and he got in trouble for being over.
Elijah Perry
Fuck you, buddy. I could have given him $0.00 instead. People like you are so elitist and entitled, like as if Taco Bell was paying the poor sap any much higher than minimum wage. That was probably like half of his hourly pay right there.
Thomas Anderson
or he put the change in the donation box, faggot.
Aaron Perry

Benjamin Butler
>some hot chick with a thigh gap
Yeah, that bitch just gave birth to twins. Blew out the whole region. I mean, GC is old now anyway, so he might as well settle down, but I guarantee his life isn't what he expected either, even if old uni brow is rich.
Cameron Cruz
>getting made fun of by fast food staff Good lord
Lucas Gomez

Liam Wood
>bring up politics on food board >get told to go to political board >"why are you talking about pancakes?" what?
Elijah Hughes
What does this thread have to do with politics. This is the OP speaking.
Nothing in the OP had to do with the political reasons for why such a man ended up working a drive-thru graveyard shift, but simply if other fast food foodies have experienced the same feels in their late night tb runs.
Jace Clark
>I gave him a $20 bill and told him to keep the change (my order was $17.30). He kind of just looked at me in confusion for a few seconds before closing the window again and starting the order. >$17 at taco bell >$2.70 tip Holy shit OP, im fucking dying.
Michael Russell
I don't understand what is so funny
Jason Adams
Are you 300 lbs?
Leo Jackson
Your existence.
Luke White
Why would I feel sorry for them if they choose you work there?
Brayden Butler
Then we would all be haggard instead of just the poor
Nicholas Ward
it depressing just buying fast food in the first place...don't you have any shame OP? are you a white trash flyover fatso?
Parker Kelly
thats the way she goes
Kevin Moore
your $2.70 turned everything around for him
Lincoln Bailey
Kek'd. With that $2.70 he bought a lottery ticket and made it out the joint.
Bentley Anderson
I went to Taco Bell last night at 1am too. The dumb kid running the drive through window put my double chalupa into the bag upside-down so all the filling fell out of it. A miserable old man wouldn't have made the same mistake.
Ryan Parker
why didn't you throw a gatorade bottle full of water at him? he wuz a dumb cracker lil bitch.
Jonathan Anderson
Who are U? you are a very funny man
Matthew Campbell
the name's Drew
Jackson Brooks
Drew. Drew. Drew. not many songs have been written about a drew. can you sing
Jason Walker
I expect below average slightly overweight women.
Justin Turner
>implying life is this simple
You live in a bubble.
Jose Brown
Reviewbrah pls go
Michael Cook
What if the dude's got dementia or shaky hands or something? Your order could still get fucked up
Nolan Foster
>I gave him a $20 bill and told him to keep the change
Congratulations, if TB management finds out, they'll fire him. You've just cost him the only job he could find that was letting him buy enough cat food to live on.
Ryder Lopez
Drug addicts need jobs too man.
Grayson Gutierrez
How the fuck would they fire him? What are you talking about retard? If tb fired me for accepting a tip, I'd sue them.
Aiden Phillips
did ya'll fuck too
Adrian Green
fantastically executed bait OP
Leo Jenkins
I can't sing but I like to write songs. Thanks for asking :^)
