Huge numbers of fast food places now want you to enter a four digit code read from the app on your phone , to usually save money iirc. Ever had an employee say the got the number but they did not and no other codes can be used for like two more hours and it was their fault?

This is certainly not a thing at "huge numbers of fast food places" unless you order online and use promo codes.

Yeah most major ones really want customers to use their app now, many with codes.

Is there any reason besides having to download a different app for everything that people are so against transitioning to placing mobile orders?

Never heard of it. Do you have any actual examples of places that are doing this?

This is what I'm talking about then. McDonalds mobile order will give you a code to give them in the drive thru.

I can't speak for everywhere, but around here literally every single fast food joint will spit in your food for ordering online. It's crazy how many pictures I have for refund purposes.

Mcd's? Ordering online pisses them off, why though?

I'd rather my food not sit there for 5-10 minutes before I get to it.

They were the first, actually. They didn't even try to hide it lol most places will try to mix it with a condiment so it isn't as obvious but at McD's they just spit between the two meat patties. One time I even watched a guy at Wendy's stick his hand down the front of his pants and sure enough the first nugget I checked had a pube stuck to it. But the joke's on him because I didn't eat it and got a refund, so now he's just some weird guy that rubbed fried chicken on his junk.

No idea why employees in this area hate online orders with such a passion, but it doesn't happen if you order in person with a mobile code. Only if you order ahead.

This feels like a "this happened" sort of thing, especially considering

Not sure what my karma or lack of activity on such an old website has to do with anything but here's a pic of the nugget. You can see they also doused it with a ton of salt

Happens occasionally for me. Usually happens when it's something free (like fries at mc d's) and you give them the code first before the item is there. Also happens when a code from a past order/from using points is still loaded and it tries to use that over the new deal.

Like 99% of the time if you tell them at the window and show them the deal wasnt applied they'll just promo it in.

Lol nah this nugget was actually fairly recent. A little over a month ago I believe?

Yeah just checked the camera roll and it says April 30th. I love that movie though so many lines from that film live in my head rent-free.
