QUICK! Need some with foreign language skills!!!

slipgate
Does anyone here speak or know of anyone that speaks Giberish? I just go back from the McDonalds and apparently it is no longer even possible to get your order correct when ordering just by the number on the menu. I don't think the girl spoke any language at all but the closest I can guess is she was a native Giberish speaker.

Just one more huge negative in the DC Metro area - all the "career" McDonalds employees.

    Youngest granddaughter (11) continually gets the giggles at restaurant drive throughs- she likes cheeseburgers, with ketchup as the only condiment. I'll order for her- "Cheeseburger, with ketchup only." "Uh- did you want cheese on that?" <DUH! That's why it's called a CHEESEBURGER!>[:p] If they were a TV set, would be looking for the control to turn up the brightness.

    I say this too if i can't understand them. I refuse to make hand signs or use other ways of saying something when i say it in perfectly clear simple english the first time.

    Had a phone call at the auto parts store I work at.
    Ladies voice "Do you speak Spanish?"
    Me "No ma'am, not a word"
    Lady "Is there anyone there who does speak Spanish?"
    Me "Not at the moment, our Spanish speaker will be in later"
    At this point the obvious dawned on me.
    Me "But ma'am your speaking perfect English, perhaps I can help you"
    Lady "No, I will only talk to a Spanish speaker"
    And she hangs up!!!
    Now when someone asks for a Spanish speaker I turn on my broadest Cockney. Confuses the hell out of them.

    Even before I had a Bachelor's in English, poor grammar/other languages perturbed the urine out of me.
    I like to point out that I can speak and write English like a native. (I'm native American-I was born here. I'm also half African-American. The American half.)
    Words are so much fun.

    Girl at window: "What will ya have"

    Here is an easy way to get free fries - Order a sprite. I haven't met a McDonalds worker yet that will not ring up a "Fries". When you clarify the mistake, they just let you keep the Fries and give you the Sprite.
