Musing – Walking-up at the Drive-thru

While out on an errand I visited my local MacDonald’s for my quarterly infusion of guilty pleasures.

I placed my order at the drive-up location and was told to proceed to window 1 where I paid for my purchase.  With one vehicle ahead of me at the food pick-up line, I began the slow roll toward the second window and then stopped.

I noticed a lady walking up to the front of the vehicle at the second window and she made a halfhearted attempt to squeeze between the vehicle and the building to get to the drive-thru window.

That attempt was unsuccessful, she decided to walk between the first vehicle and my car to access the window. Noting her actions I decided to wait for her to accomplish her mission. The other vehicle drove off and I continued to wait, not moving to allow the customer on foot to access the window with no interference from my car.  During her transaction at the food pick-up window, she pointed in my direction and the staff looked out at me. The customer then walked away, bag with goodies in hand.

Curious of course when I rolled up to the window I asked the server what had transpired. She told me the customer ”wanted to know why you weren’t driving up to the window”.  I smiled, and responded “with her blocking my path, I may be good but not that good.” The McDonald’s staff laughed and said “you’re so right.’

This is an interesting world with interesting people.
