Welcome once again to what I fondly like to call my “Seriously..are you kidding me?!?” favorite police call of the night.
AND THE WINNER IS….
Caller or Little-Man-Syndrome-Man(From here on out will be known as LMSM)
..any similarities to the Ronald Mcdonald Clown are purely coincidental.
Me: 911..what is your emergency?
LMSM: (Talking very fast, very agitated and angry) I was just at Mc Donalds and didn’t get all of my food that I ordered.
Me: …and that is an emergency?
LMSM: Let me finish. I went back in to the restaurant to get my missing food and to report the poor service to the manager.
Me: Uh huh…
LMSM:..and after I told this manager about their poor service and his employee’s awful work, I was walking out of the place and the employee who messed up my order started throwing me hard looks. You know I was in the Marine Corp..
Me: ..okay…
LMSM: So I went right back in to Mcdonalds and started asking him , “Why are you throwing me hard looks, huh? What is your problem?!?” Then I saw the man put his hand in his pocket. So I asked (his voice getting louder), “What is in your pocket, Hey..what is in your pocket?!?”
Me: Did you see anything in his pocket?
LMSM:No..
Me: So what would you like the police department to do?
LMSM: Someone needs to go out and talk to this guy!
Me: Sir, there doesn’t seem to be any crime here. But if you want to wait in the parking lot for the police to come by and talk with you and the management there we can do that.
LMSM: No, I can’t do that. My girlfriend and I are headed to a business meeting. I am just so mad. You know, I was in the Marine Corp. What did you want me to do?!?
Me: Okay, sir, I get it that you were in the Marine Corp. I understand that. I was raised by a Marine, my daughter’s birthday is the Marine Corp birthday..I get it, oohrah and the whole bit. I understand being upset over not getting all the food that you ordered. But really, is it worth it to possibly get in a fight over a Big Mac and some fries?
LMSM: This is just wrong. Someone needs to go out and talk to that guy.
Me: Sir, the next time this happens..and it will happen again, that you don’t get your complete order. My suggestion to you is to let your girlfriend go inside and pick up your fries…you should just stay in the car.
