Do you take advantage of the free Big Mac deal?

Just curious about the number of CPers that go for the freebie from McDonald's the day after a game where the Chiefs record a sack.

No pole, no stats.

I recently found out that we have a Hamburger University here. I guess its McD's community college where they train all their middle managers or something.

Supposedly people can eat there and it has menu items from their around the world franchises.

If I ever get one of those just ****ing kill me now hangovers, I may roll through.

Mickey D would actually make more money if they gave you a sammich with the combo meal.

I'm not sure why anyone would order the combo meal if that's the case.

I didn't know McD's had a "medium" fries, only small and large, and whatever used to be called super-sized.

They make a version with quarter pound patties

My personal theory is that the burger patties aren't smaller or drier than they used to be, but the bread is more dense. My usual order is a McDouble or two, and even with 2 patties on each they feel like eating half a loaf of dry bread.

They can also be stingy with the condiments at times which doesn't help.

Satisfied that craving for about a year.

Although see they have QPC'S 2 for $6. May hammer a couple of those down soon.

Well, most people don't want to get out a slide rule when ordering. So, they should just give people an extra Big Mac if they buy the Big Mac Combo Meal.

With closed-circuit tv and constant monitoring a lot less I am sure in my day than perhaps yours. I worked at an amusement park Worlds of Fun in my youth. I had many friends who worked in foodservice. Payback for rude customers made for good stories at after-work parties.

Good to know you're are an A++ employee I'd eat a sandwich you made
