Me: "Sure, thank you B"

I went to McDs for a tea on my way to work...I order it very Sallylike I admit ....

Large tea half cut with lemon and no ice

I tell the orderer that...and it doesn't come up on my screen correctly, so I tell her so. She tells me she knows and the amount and such...

I get my tea...it has ice...I tell the girl it was supposed to be NO ice..she looks at me and says "she says you didn't say no ice" And I proceed to tell her that I did and it the screen thing...She looks confused and upset...and this other girl comes over (the one taking orders I believe) and snatches the cup from my hand (since the other girl wouldn't even take it back from me) and dumps it out and makes it all over....Hands it back to me without a word....and instead of half cut she has put half and half in it. With lemon

By this time I am going to be late for work and I can't do anything more about it...but I was tealess and tired as a result of my caffeine free day!

And yes...I know there are far worse things in the world...but this was my peeve for the day. More so because it is further testimony to the downward spiral that is customer service...and human relations in general

Despite the ridiculous amount of joy I am feeling after the Ravens Super Bowl win, I am still pissed off at the shit load of sexism in the Super Bowl commercials. The Go Daddy commercials absolutely disgust me. I am so tired of the devolution of American advertising.
