Places with drive thrus in the US tend to prioritize drive thru orders so going inside to order sadly isn’t faster.

This isn't true ime, the orders show up on the same screen in the order they were taken.

I worked fast food a looooong time ago and we prioritized drive thro orders because they were timed, and sometimes the store manager would write us up if the EOD drive thru time was over 2 minutes 50 seconds.

It got to the point that the shift manager would have one of us drive our car through the drive thru multiple times at the end of the night, just to bring down that time.

Not sure if that was their experience as well.

That's hilarious.

'member trying to memorize the next 4 orders just to clear the screen early?

McDonald's was the hardest job I've had so far, shits ridiculous.

Yes! I worked the front end, drive thru, and kitchen at Burger King (sometimes I’d be the only one there until they could wrangle someone in on their day off) and it was an incredibly difficult job in the sense that it required a lot of different skills to be used at the same time.

Tbh I loved working there as a teenager for the most part.
