This goes even beyond McDonalds, but I am tired of going to all of these fast food places and no one can understand English. We are told that you cannot fire someone for not speaking English, but yet you can be let go for not speaking Spanish. Something is definitely wrong here. The last straw was this morning when I went to McDonald's I ordered what I wanted drove to the first window paid and then drove to the second window to pick up my food. The girl hands me my food and a coffee and I told her I asked for a Diet Coke. She just looked at me, and looked around at the other people, then figured it out. I got my Diet Coke then I asked for salt and she just kept saying salsa, and I kept saying no salt, then once again she started looking around, then figured it out. I realized she had filled my Diet Coke to full and it was coming out of the top all over and filling up my cup holder, so I grabbed the napkins and started cleaning it up, and I looked at the girl and asked for some more napkins and she just looked at me and I kept asking for napkins, and she started again looking around, I was really upset at this point, and told her I need some more napkins now. The girl turned around and got the manager and she came over to the window, and asked how she could help me, and I told her I need napkins because my drink is leaking all over. The manager handed me that napkins and apologized, because she new I was upset. I told her that they need to hire people that can speak and understand English.

Part of my family immigrated here and they spoke German in the home and English everywhere else, they didn't expect for everyone that was an American to conform to them, they adapted. The other part of my family is Cherokee Indian, and they are as native as you get and they even learned English. Why is it that only Hispanic people from Mexico are aloud to have a culture, and me as an American citizen are not aloud to have a culture, demand that English be spoken only, and why are my rights less then people that have broken the law to get here.

I was in Mexico a couple of weeks ago, and no one there was bending over backwards to speak English to me or give me something for free, and I didn't see an American's down there working in any of the places we went.

Something is really wrong here, and we need to make this corporations accountable for the people they hire. Maybe start hiring young American kids that speak English and would like to make some money while going to school.

Thank you ,

My orders are incorrect over 75% of the time. Food is prepared very sloppy and cold most of the time. The price of food at these places is as much as a sit down restaurant now and they still are low quality.

Dear McDonald's,

Fix your Ice Cream machine. When we want ice cream, your machine is always broken. How do you keep breaking it?

Signed,

I went to Putnam McDonald's at 3:30 on 07/22/2022; in the drive through line I heard the staff say that there was no carbonation in the soda but they were whispering about it and I thought, they won't serve me flat soda knowing it is flat. Wrong, they served me two flat soda's without a care in the world.

After I drinked my iced caramel macchiato got ready to eat the ice and it was a bug in the bottom of the cup! I have been vomiting since I seen it in my cup! That is VERY NASTY! And not very safe. I have lupus and can not afford to get sick! This needs to be handled ASAP! That is very unsanitary

Went in to McDonalds on Wilma Rudolph rd, Clarksville. This was 30 Jul 2022. Completed our order and went to sit down and could not find one clean table to sit down and eat. Looked over and saw a mother actually having to clean her own table with a borrowed washcloth. Every trash can was full with refuse on the ground. Totally unsanitary!

McDonald's on Pembina and Grant has terrible service. I Stop there at least 3 times a week to grab a coffee in the morning, and sometimes a breakfast sandwich. When I do, every time I'm told to wait around the corner for my food. there are often one or two cars also waiting. Today I went for breakfast, and again, told to wait with two other cars. I was waiting fore over 5 mins, finally went in and they forgot about my order. I will start going to the Burger King down the from now on. Whoever owns or manages the Pembina location, need to take a look at the staff.

I used to love the traditional cheeseburger but over the last month, 4 times I have received it and the bap just crumbles and obviously is stale. What is going on? 1, 2, 6,12, and 14th August 2022

The cashier is not here so we did not pay for a few minutes, but I noticed that cashier or team member talked outside of McDonald's. We were waiting for around 10 minutes to get food because no one is there in front table.

Andrik Guajardo is such a little [censored] he never takes my order and tells me "Could you hold on for a moment?" and then takes 5 minutes doing god knows what. And when he finally took my order he repeated what I said and kept asking "What was that?" And he had the audacity to say "We don't have any ice cream at the moment"

Blond fat guy very disrespectful and uses foul language. Calls people Karen's because his service is terrible.

On Saturday I witnessed this man use found language Sat Oct 15 at 7 pm berating customers and cursing.

I saw him do the same a few days earlier. This guy is over the top disrespectful. His first name is Mat, I believe.

When I went to two different McDonalds and when I pulled up my app, they said no Wi-Fry, not funny, but I could sign up for their Wi-Fi. Now when I pull up my app at any McDonalds, they say no Wi-Fi Fry but I can't sign up. It just says no Wi-Fry. I am very frustrated.

Had a delivery from McDonalds Aylesford.

Two double quarter pounder meals with coffee and a coke.

stone cold coffee, Luke warm food.

How can it be that bad when McDonalds is only 5mins drive from my address. And before you accuse me of being lazy, I am disabled so I could not get to McDonalds.

I pulled up to drive thru about 11:44 pm. 2 cars ahead of me. He took first car order. Told 2nd car & me they're closed. I sd why, sign says 12. He said we don't have any food! I told him I only wanted a soda & your sign says 12. He completely ignored me! Not the first issue with this location.

Thank you

Hello, I have been trying to get a job at my local McDonald's at 1006 south high street, Columbus ohio 43206, I have filled out numerous applications, every time I go in for my interview it gets cancelled while I'm waiting and then I'm told to leave.

To add to into this someone is manually cancelling these applications.

I live in Hugo Oklahoma and went to McDonalds here, the meat in the burgers was not cooked properly, the meat was raw, the parking lot was dark, they need their parking lot lights fixed, plus they need to cook their meat until it is done!
