First of all, let me be clear: There is absolutely nothing wrong with a drive-thru worker, or any fast food employee, trying to lighten the mood and amuse customers. But I’ve got to wonder if perhaps the bar for personal interactions is set so low during those transactions that if a worker shows even the least effort in entertaining people, it’s like the most extremely hilarious moment of everyone’s lives, ever.
We’ve had the Singing McDonald’s Employee in Ohio, the Drive-Thru Guy Who Did Silly Voices in Louisiana and now the world is meeting the Wendy’s Drive-Thru Worker With Enthusiastic Accents (h/t Jezebel).
All are great examples of workers who, perhaps to break up what could be a pretty monotonous job into more of an enjoyable comedy experiment, go that extra bit to provide a unique fast food experience for customers.
Here’s a little bit country, a little bit rock ‘n’ roll, a little bit of everything and also Elvis:
If I happened upon this worker, I would most definitely tell everyone I know about it to the point where my friends and coworkers were like, “yeah, we heard that story, it was hilarious and awesome and he/she is the best drive-thru worker ever, got it.” But if I ran into this particular individual at a party and he ran through that vocal array? I’m not sure. Actually yeah, that would be pretty funny too, only I wouldn’t end up with chicken nuggets when all was said and done.
