McDonald Breakfast Meals :-|


Anyone and everyone who knows me know for a fact that I am not an early bird and infact nearly always get up late and always have to make a quick dash to work to get there in time. Rarely, if ever, do I have the most important food of the day, i.e. breakfast. If at all I do, it is generally a banana, so I myself was pleasantly surprised when I got up really early today, infact I got up at 6am, and today is my day off as well. There I was sitting up on my bed feeling slightly groggy but thinking to myself, I have to use this day to the best of my ability, so I jumped off my bed naked, which was pretty awkward cos I remembered sleeping in my boxers. As I stepped of the bed, there on the ground lay my boxers, how it got there...well your guess is as good as mine, one thing for sure, I did sleep alone yesterday.

Anyway went and brushed my teeth and decided to go jogging. By this time it was 7am, I opened my front door, stepped outside smelt the fresh morning air, felt frost on my nose and then coldness running through the rest of my body and decided Nah...I am heading back in. So I came back in and played aroun with Photoshop until 10am, then decided to actually have breakfast for a change. Closest place would be McDonalds and my tummy was actually growling for a burger.

So still in my tracksuit headed down to McDonalds and rather sleepishly asked the lovely looking lady behind the counter for a double cheeseburger with all the trimmings, to which she replied, "Sorry Sir! We Dont have any double cheeseburgers!". Hold on a minute, I was sleepy but not that sleepy that I had walked in to another restaurant, I was 100% positive that I was in McDonald's, McDonald's without Double Cheeseburger was like Laurel without Hardy, this was unthinkable, hence not being put off by the reply, requested for a double cheeseburger again. The lady responded back by saying "Sorry sir, we only serve breakfast meals until 10:30am!"....I thought to myself okay fair enough, I might have been early and I decide to go for their breakfast meal after looking at the POS situated above the tills.

I paid for my meal and while the lady was packing my meal, the manager comes and changes all the Breakfast Meal POS to normal McDonald POS...I was like hold on a second little lady....Somethings wrong here...She was "Sorry sir, but you were a minute early, you came in at 10:29 when we only serve breakfast meals..."...and then she gave me this gorgeous smile. I lost my double cheeseburger meal because of one bloody minute, you have to be kidding me. While I was about to lose my temper at her, she gave me one of her gorgeous smiles again and I could not find it in my heart to have a tantrum at someone who smiles at me this early in the morning, so I decided to just go have my breakfast meal. Which to be honest was really good to tell you the truth and probably healthier than a double cheeseburger. I got a muffin with bacon and fried egg and it cost me a lot less than the double cheeseburger which would have been a lot more dearer.

So I guess, by going to McDonalds a minute earlier, I managed to save on my damage and also got a pretty girl to smile at me quite a few times. Maybe I should really make an effort to have breakfast more often....hmmm!
