WHAT BUGS ME WHEN VISITING PLACES LIKE BURGER AND OTHER PLACES TO EAT:
Burger King tricks you by advertising a large and small chicken burger. but both burgers are the same size. One just has more french fries? Con-men.
Very often both have very young staff. I think part of the reason is that young part timers get paid less?
Often, their toilets are dirty (not cleaned often enough). One reason might be that some of their branches use the kitchen staff to alternate by cleaning toilets and tidying tables when they are not too busy!
But what about that time when they are busy? We the customer pay the price with filthy greasy floors, full trash cans and dirty toilets.
One thing I like to check when entering a fast food place or a restaurant for the first time is the toilet.
The toilet is the place we are allowed to see, So if that's filthy, then do you ever wonder what it's like in the kitchen?
How many people do you know that pick their nose or scratch themselves in unmentionable places? How many young people in fast food joints want to work there forever?
I have more confidence in restaurants than fast food joints. (not inc oriental restaurants or those ones that have staff that do not speak English)
SO, "WHAT BUGS YOU?"
