911 call over a burger

[Doomsday101]

Dispatcher: Sheriff's department, how can I help you?

Woman: Yeah, I'm over here . . . I'm over here at Burger King right here in San Clemente.*

Dispatcher: Uh-huh.

Woman: Um, no, not San Clemente; I'm sorry, I live in San Clemente. I'm in Laguna Niguel, I think, that's where I'm at.

Dispatcher: Uh-huh.

Woman: I'm at a drive-through right now.

Dispatcher: Uh-huh.

Woman: I went . . . I ordered my food three times. They're mopping the floor inside, and I understand they're busy . . . they're not even busy, okay, I've been the only car here. I asked them four different times to make me a Western Barbeque Burger. Okay, they keep giving me a hamburger with lettuce, tomato, and cheese, onions, and I said, "I'm not leaving . . ."

Dispatcher: Uh-huh.

Woman: I want a Western Burger because I just got my kids from Tae Kwon Do, they're hungry, I'm on my way home, and I live in San Clemente.

Dispatcher: Uh-huh.

Woman: Okay . . . she said, she gave me another hamburger; it's wrong. I said four times, I said, "I want it to go. Can you go out and park in front?" I said, "No, I want my hamburger right." So then the . . . the lady came to the manager. She . . . well whoever she is, she came up and she said, um, she said, um, "Do you want your money back?" And I said, "No, I want my hamburger. My kids are hungry and I have to jump on that toll freeway." I said, "I am not leaving this spot," and I said, "I will call the police," because I want my Western Burger done right! Now is that so hard?

Dispatcher: Okay, what exactly is it you want us to do for you?

Woman: I . . . send an officer down here. I . . . I want them to make me . . .

Dispatcher: Ma'am, we're not gonna go down there and enforce your Western Bacon Cheeseburger.

Woman: What am I supposed to do?

Dispatcher: This is . . . this is between you and the manager. We're not gonna go and enforce how to make a hamburger; that's not a criminal issue. There's . . . there's nothing criminal there.

Woman: So I just stand here . . . so I just sit here and [block]?

Dispatcher: You . . . you need to calmly and rationally speak to the manager and figure out what to do between you.

Woman: She did come up, and I said, "Can I please have my Western Burger?" She . . . she said, "I'm not dealing with it," and she walked away. Because they're mopping the floor, and it's also the fact that they don't want to . . . they don't want to go through there . . . and . . . and . . .

Dispatcher: Ma'am, then I suggest you get your money back and go somewhere else. This is . . . this is not a criminal issue. We can't go out there and make them make you a cheeseburger the way you want it.

Woman: Well . . . that is . . . that . . . you're supposed to be here to protect me.

Dispatcher: Well, what are we protecting you from, a wrong cheeseburger?

Woman: No . . .

Dispatcher: Is this like . . . is this a harmful cheeseburger or something? I don't understand what you want us to do.

Woman: Just come down here. I'm not . . . I'm not leaving.

Dispatcher: No ma'am, I'm not sending the deputies down there over a cheeseburger. You need to go in there and act like an adult and either get your money back or go home.

Woman: She is not acting like an adult herself! I'm sitting here in my car; I just want them to make my kids a . . . a Western Burger.

Dispatcher: Ma'am, this is what I suggest: I suggest you get your money back from the manager and you go on your way home.

Woman: Okay.

Dispatcher: Okay? Bye-bye.

(*We're aware that the Western Bacon Cheeseburger is a menu item offered by Carl's Jr., not Burger King. The caller either misidentified the type of burger she was trying to order or misstated the name of the restaurant. Both chains have outlets in Laguna Niguel, and Burger King has periodically promoted a Western Whopper burger.)

I have the sound file of that downloaded and home. The lady that called is looney. I love the way the operator handled it.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

People like this need a beating....and scary thing is the lesson she is teaching the kids.


This woman needed the police to come down, take a cheese burger from the grill, load it with everything, leave the top bun off.

Then throw that thing right in the womans face and tell her to **** and quit wasting their time.


Then again, she would have sued the police and won millions and still not have gotten the cheeseburger she wanted.

BTW...moving this to off-topic section.

If you get a chance could you find a link to that, would love to hear it.

What is sad is I know people (work with one) like this. There are a great many people who just can't function in society, but have nowhere else to go. It is sad really....

Look up Asperger's disease - I think there are more who suffer from this than are diagnosed.....

We seem to have a disease for every action these days or could it be this lady is so self-centered and has no regards for others that she would actually want to take officers off their job to handle a minor burger problem. LOL .

It's actually worse than you would expect... this lady is INSISTENT...

Hey Dooms, don't know if you remember. But there was a woman here who ran down a worker at McDonald's because her order was wrong. I don't remember all the particulars, but she caused the woman major injuries. She said her foot slipped and she hit the gas instead of the brakes. Jury didn't buy it and was convicted of vehicular assault.

Crazy, crazy world we live in.

Nothing surprises me now days that is for sure. What is worse is the fact that people will make excuses for this type of behavior as if it is not that persons fault.

LMAO - sorry...just listened to the link that was gold. I take it back, this isn't Aspergers, this is just a moron.

Aspergers isn't a "disease" like ADD or other so called behavioral issues from chem disorders. It is a mild form of autism that is rarely diagnosed, but common enough that we have all seen it. It involved the inability to view reality through the same "filters" that "normal" minds normally do.

It is usually exhibited as social disfunction - not behaviourally, rather, the subject simply doesn't have the same wiring as others. Something in their analysis of social interaction is lacking, causing them to be unable interact properly. They seem to be missing protocols, connections, SOMETHING that keeps them from normal interaction....

We have all met at least one person like that - a person who, when you talk to them, doesn't seem "all there." We often right it off as "oh, he isn't all there," or "he must have some problems." While often this is true, a person with Aspergers is not "mentally ********," rather their mild (very mild) autistic system is preventing them from UNDERSTANDING what most of us take for granted....

Me too Crown.....at first i started laughing while i was reading that post but by the end i felt the way BP did, someone needs to smack that lady, or even better, put her on jerry springer and make her listen to how rediculous she sounds in front of a crowd of people.

Recently I was getting lunch at a deli near my work and this lady came storming in shouting, cursing and demanding that the guy making sandwiches make her a new hoagie because the roll was not soft enough. the man tried to explain that there were only a few rolls left and they were all the same consistency as they were waiting for fresh ones later that day. she was offered her money back. the woman refused and kept screaming "your gonna make me another hoagie right now with a fresh roll", the man again tried to explain there would be no fresh rolls until later that afternoon. again she was offered her moner back but the woman yelled louder the same thing. this went on and on until i could not beleive that any human being could possibly be so dense,
meanwhile the rest of the customers in the store, we are laughing and shaking our heads. at any rate, it was funny up to a point but then things started to get psycho and the woman was just downright annoying....so i left and went to the deli right across the street and got a hoagie on a nice, fresh roll.

You know what kills me with these idiots....do they stop to think about what these people will do with their food before they give it to them after acting like a derranged donkey?

Really....I mean I can see a fast food worker getting mad and dropping the burger on the floor or putting dirt on it or spitting on it or this or that.

You are better off being kind or just getting your money back.

However I do have a confession lol...

It was right before I was getting out of the army, and I went to burger king.

I always had trouble with this burger king and their lack of understanding what EXTRA pickles meant.
I actually asked on time, does extra pickles mean just one...the lady said yes...so I actually said extra pickles five times and made her show me on the ticket.

Well I did that this last time and I picked up my order, opened up the whopper and noticed there were only two pickles on it.

So I said...how many pickles do you see here, the lady at the counter said two, I said how many times does this ticket say extra pickles, she said five.

I said I am not mad at you because you just took the order...so this is not directed at you.

Then I took the whopper, with the top bun off, and threw it at the french fry bin...it hit the metal above the bin and slid down, causing sauce to trail, down into the french fries and I said have it your way my arse and walked out HAHA.

I felt bad about it afterwards but it felt good at the time haha.

I am a barista at Starbucks here in Arlington (tell me you are from the Zone, get a free drink!!!). I see at least one of these everytime I work.

"Can I have my half and half steamed to 190?"

"Yes ma'am, but I should warn you, we recommend never to go past 180 because it burns the milk..."

"I know how I like it...."

"I have a D V 1pSFV 1pSFV B 3SP 190degree No Foam with whip Latte ready at the bar."

>sip<

"Ughh....you burned it, can I have another?"

I tell you there was this "Woman" that worked there...I swear to you that she looked like elvis after a sex change.

I told my buddies that she was really elvis and he had a sex change just to hide out.

The woman was big, had elvis type hair do and I swear she had some small sideburns lol.
