They have another trick up there sleeves too. I called them on it twice. I order two number 2's and know how much it will cost, let's say $7.25. She looks at me and asks for $8.75. I hand her a 10 and step aside and double check my math. After I'm sure I got ripped off, I tell her that she charged me too much. She opens the drawer and hands me $2, no questions asked, almost like she wanted me to go away ASAP. She knew exactly what she was doing. I wonder how many people she does that to everyday.

This one's fa Dave & Mike
I few years back I was in a rush to go fishin. It happen to be a full moon I just wanted to grab my coffee and go ASAP. I get to where you order, it takes her a while and she says "I'll be right with you". I'm waiting and waiting and waiting, man it seemed like forever, mean while this freakin B*&^%tch is yappin away with her freind who's in the car a head of me at the pick up window. Finally I just couldn't take it any longer. It had to have been at least 10-15 mintues.. seemed like forever. At this point my blood pressure is rising and I get a bit nervouse too, so I drove up real close to the car in front of me while shes still yappin away. Now I very F*&^in pissed. I started counting all the pennies, nickles, dimes and a couple qaurters if I remember correctly. I had as much change as possible. Finally after about 15 or 20 minutes the car drove off and I pulled up to the window. I swear to you.. I don't even know how I got the words out of my mouth but I did..... cause my head felt like it was gonna blow. I tell her "med regular"! when she put the coffee down, I wipped as hard as I could a handfull of change at the stainless steel counter and that chit flew every where I grabed the coffee and yelled as loud as I could....."YOU F@%&in B*&^tch, who the F do you think you are?" I'm pretty sure those where my exact words. I was so pissed I remember was gonna go inside a reem her a new a$$ because I worked for the owner at the time(after all that I problably would have lost my job for being a nutt case). I chilled out alot since then and avoid those kinda situations and I use a little more tack.

No Tip Policy
Mac:
The DD located in the Mobil station at Cobbs Corner has a no tip policy. The sign is on the register.
This is the only one I have seen like that. Too bad more places don't adopt this policy.

That shop is fine. This shop is on the corner of 138 and Central.
Well I went to see the manager again since she never called back. Guess what; she said the girls draw was short 41 cents  So apparently the manager never intended to call me back either. I informed her that I was going to write a letter to her corporate headquarters which didn't seem to faze her either. I asked her what ever happened to " The customer is always right" ? To which I got no response.

Of course her drawer was only off by that much, cuz she pocketed your $10.
Supplementing her income.

I Hate Dunkin' Donuts so much I get angry just thinking about that place! On Cape Cod, as with most places I am sure, they become so F'ing crowded in the mornings that the traffic on the road in front becomes impassible. Then it's 20 minutes of waiting to get a cup of lousy coffee with a side of attitude.
Screw that place, I gave up coffee completely. You'd be amazed how much stress that relieves.

Well there's the problem right there. The management. I go to a Wendy's in Acton. Workers are polite.. hell.. friendly even. 9 times out of 10 the order is ready as I drive up to the window and I've never had a problem with a screwed up order or change. I'd write dd corp headquarters and tell them about the treatment you got from the manager.
