One failed sundae mission too many: the result

So I never received a reply to my complaint about the sundae, but the following things have happened since I sent it:

1. A few people I know have started a "Refuse the waiting bay" campaign, basically choosing not to move their cars if asked to wait. The Maccas workers are usually a bit gobsmacked, but do tend to hurry up a bit

2. Despite my threats, I've been back to the local Maccas. The sundae quality has improved significantly. They now look a lot more like the pictures

3. At the drive-thru window there is now a computer screen that shows you how long you have been waiting. Judging by the makeshift nature of this, I can only assume it is in reaction to my complaint. Since the clock has been there, service times have really reduced

I am still a little peeved that they didn't reply to me though....

  1. Have you seen they now have a 3 minute waiting period and if you wait any longer you get a free Big Mac or something on your next visit.

    I went to try this out but as fate would have it NO ONE was there. So was in and out in a minute. Grrr normally this particular maccas takes 20 minutes minimum.
