Not correcting a mistake in the order
Be as clear as possible when ordering so nothing gets lost in translation. The employee will repeat your order back to you, or you’ll be able to see it on a screen, so make sure everything looks correct. It’s harder to fix once you get up to the window.Handing over extra money
Your total is $17, so you give the cashier a $20 and two $1 bills,
expecting a $5 in return. It makes things easier on your wallet so
you’re not carrying around extra bills, but it’s not always easy for
fast food employees to add in that they’ve taken in extra
cash—especially if they’re in a hurry.
