I SAT IN LINE FOR OVER 30 MINUTES TO ORDER AND THE GIRL IN DRIVE THRU SAT AND HELD A CONVERSATION WITH THE DRIVER IN FRONT OF ME FOR ANOTHER 30 MINUTES KNOWING IT WAS ANOTHER CAR BEHIND THEM. SHE GOT THE FOOD AND THEY CONTINUED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION LIKE THE NO ONE IS BEHIND THEM. I WILL NOT WASTE MY TIME NOR MONEY HERE ANYMORE.
