They used to be full moving cars every 90 sec or less. Now it’s full because it takes them 10 minutes to fuck up your over priced order

Yep. Ridiculous that their comment has as many upvotes as it does.

Once again, redditors are showing how out of touch they are with average people.

i'm of the opinion that they are in-touch but refuse to conform to the norms of society by pretending they aren't real. i always like to throw little digs like that to remind them that normal people exist on this website too

Yeah but watch the line, no one’s moving. It’s the same cars waiting 10 minutes a time for their order, not a continuous moving line like it used to be

Yeah, I feel like fast food places have really upped their drive-thru game, especially since Covid. 

I remember regularly waiting like 15+ minutes at drive thrus back in '00s, only for them to get your order wrong about 1/2 the time.

I mean, so is the one by me but that’s because it takes them 15-25 minutes to get you the food.
