Open Letter To The McDonald's Corporation And/Or Its Associated Franchisees

Nobody should EVER grab an order of McNuggets - and I'm talking now about the folks behind the counter, pulling orders - NOBODY should EVER grab an order of McNuggets without already having the sauce in hand! Everybody wants some kind of sauce, for those McNuggets. Or if they don't, those who don't are by far in the statistically insignificant minority of McDonald's customers! That sauce is IMPORTANT. You can't enjoy the McNuggets without that sweet, sour, tangy, hot, spicy, and/or delicious sauce! So grab the sauce first and then the McNuggets.

Or at the very least, grab nuggets and sauce simultaneously. If you don't know which sauce, if you forgot - FIND OUT FIRST, and then go back for the McNuggets and the sauce. None of this "oh, I forgot which sauce, let me just get the McNuggets first, I'll come back for the sauce in a second..." NO. YOU WON'T. THAT'S THE PROBLEM. You put the Nugs in, then some part of your brain is like "ok, McNuggets taken care of..." - maybe another part of your brain is like "...still gotta get that sauce at some point," but that must be the part of your brain that whispers. Its voice doesn't get heard. Then VWOOOP! that bag is out the window with no sauce in! So in reality, NO, you DIDN'T get the McNuggets "taken care of" DID you? Because...they have NO SAUCE!!

Every damn time, they give it to me with no sauce in the bag. Changes need to be instituted at the global procedural level. EVERYBODY but everybody wants some kind of damn sauce with those!

We've been over this, I'm repeating myself now.

There need to be changes instituted. I don't want to be insulting, or to put the back-of-the-counter culture of a McDonald’s on a level like a maze for rats, but maybe there could be a button they could depress - only AFTER picking up the correct sauce - and then they press that button, and the box of McNuggets is dispensed, like a reward. That could work. Or one time, if somebody really did order a McNuggets with "No Sauce!" - then the manager could come over and turn the override key, allowing the McNuggets to be dispensed even though no sauce. But in that case, the manager should really step over and have a word with the customer. "Have you tried the Honey Mustard? We've added seeds!"

How'm I supposed to get my McNuggle on without the McDippystuff!*
