He announced that he was here to scam us without realizing I heard him 🤦🏽‍♀️

Transcript

He announced that he was here to scam us without realizing I heard him. So I'm sitting in the lobby today and these little group of boys come in and I hear them say, 'Y'all ready for this? Watch this, how you get free food at McDonald's.' So then I see him walk up to one of my managers and start telling her, 'Oh, I came yesterday and I got this sandwich and it was wrong, and I got the iced coffee, it was wrong, and you guys were missing my hash brown.' So I walked up and I was like, 'Do you have a receipt?' He's like, 'No, but I used to work at McDonald's and you guys are supposed to fix it all the time.' And I was like, 'Well, we do get scammed a lot, you know, I overhear people say that all the time. So unfortunately, there's no way for me to verify your order.' And he just smiled and walked away gracefully.
