Filet-O-Fish


The fish sandwich has always been my favorite McDonald food, second to fries. Not many noticed, but it has only got half a slice of cheddar cheese in it - and been for the case for as long as I could recall.

An interesting incidence happened during my patronage today and it evolved around an argument about the size of the cheese served in the sandwich.

A customer furiously rushed to the counter holding a filet-o-fish, demanding another one made for him. Then shortly after he was given the second sandwich, he once again, returned it to the counter and complained it only had half a slice of cheese in it. The manager explained to the man that it has always been the case but the man insisted otherwise.

To settle the dispute, the manager offered to make the customer a new one and apparently, the new one must have contained a whole piece of cheese in it as I heard no more complaint thereafter.

2 filet-o-fish sandwiches got thrown into the bin because of a selfish jerk who could not tell right from wrong. The man got what he wanted this time and there is no reasons why he would not ask for the same treatment next time.

I understand why life is so unfair, it is due to the fact that a minority few cannot uphold integrity.

as a matter of fact, McD has 'shrinked' all their burgers and fries... if you noticed.

Similar case in PnS, I bought chicken powder for $22,90 last Fri. Then on Sat, they advertised a special price for $17.90. So, I asked my maid to go down and ask for a refund and buy a new can later. In PnS, she was harassed by the cashier asking all sorts of nonsense questions and holding up the queue... the manager came out and settled with the $5 difference.
