  • My favorite was pretending to be a robot/prerecorded message. I’d put on my announcer voice to greet them, and then say “to place an order, press 1” but there was no keypad, so they would just say “uh…one?” And then I’d be like “para español, marque dos”

    I would be super petty when Midwestern transplants would butcher the word “quesadilla” as “cassadila” by responding “sorry, a what? Oh, a quesadilla, okay” which got really funny (to me) when they would order several different kinds of quesadilla and I would do the same schtick every time within a span of 2 minutes

    This was before I got woke, so sometimes I would put on an Indian accent and act like I was taking their order from an overseas call center


    I used to fuck around in all sorts of ways there: putting a sign on the drive-thru menu telling people to yell bc the mic was damaged; not turning on the lights at night so people thought we were closed;

    My favorite thing though was doing customer surveys (which would get printed and pinned in the back) and leaving insane reviews- like one went on and on about how the cashier was sooo hot, and then at the end mentioned he reminds me of my dad (that employee was a babyfaced teen which made it extra bizarre)
















  • For the folks disagreeing with you, I think a helpful analogy might be to think of it like a recipe.

    If you try to make a fancy dish at home without the high quality equipment and ingredients the chef had, it’s not gonna turn out like the chef intended, and it’s not the chef’s fault or a bad recipe.

    It’s art meant to be enjoyed in a particular fashion, and will naturally be less enjoyable when prepared or consumed in another manner.

    There’s a valid argument to be made for remixing it for shitty speakers, since it doesn’t seem hard and would make a lot of people happy, but artists shouldn’t be obligated to bastardize their work if they don’t want to
