Inilah Kumpulan Doa-doa Para Nabi dan Rasul yang Diabadikan dalam Al Quran
I realize people are doing the best they can with what they have to work with. However, when will technology at the fast food drive-through allow for at least an invisible experience. Google "drive-through communications" and look at all the companies that apparently sell these things.
Today, Anger Management Clinics should be buying ad space on the drive-through speaker thing. Reality television? "The Speaker Thing" on television could be better than most of the reality shows available today. If I was taking the orders, I would leave the Speaker's transmitter in the "on" position all day. Can you imagine the dialog coming from the vehicle prior to the order?
Enjoying the Drive-Thru Experience
While waiting in line, watch the tail lights of those in front of you. While they are wearing out their brake pads with every one inch advancement in line, witness the lead car and the verbal skills and antics of the person communicating with the speaker thing.
The person in the lead car, is on stage for all of us to enjoy. After they invent countless ways of ordering a hamburger, they hang from their window, resting on one arm, yelling at the speaker thing, while swatting their children with the other arm. Once the order has been well communicated, 3 or 4 times, they donate rubber to the asphalt below.
The next lead car has one of those driver side windows that won't go down. I anticipated that one since it was not down listening to the communication between the previous lead car and the speaker thing. While opening their car door, so they can scream their truly inventive order, the door smacks that poor speaker thing right in "the kisser". After the order has been clearly communicated to the speaker thing (and everyone else in line), the car pulls forward displaying all of the "dings" on the drivers door. I ask myself, "I wonder if this place requires one to make two more stops; one for paying and one for receiving"?
I am almost there, one more vehicle to go. I've been watching the new lead vehicle for about 5 minutes. It's a nasty looking truck, with oversize tires, and a driver that has been spiting tobacco from his window. I must admit, he's a pretty good shot, he's been aiming at the trash on the ground and hitting most of it. A friend of mine would always sit In-Between Swing Sets at the park and spit into a bottle. Back to the lead vehicle, the man is screaming an order for a milk shake. No, vanilla MILK SHAKE, oh a VANILLA MILK SHAKE. Great, he's done, oh, he spat tobacco on the poor speaker thing - he's driving off - passing everyone on the right (the shake machine is broken). Note: when in line, watch for passing vehicles on your right side.
Being the lead car now, I can give my order ..., wow, that speaker thing has been brutally mistreated. Leaning to the right, decorated with coke, coffee, fresh tobacco stains, four flavors of gum, and topped off with a pickle stuck on it's face, I wonder if someone really hit the front of it with a fist or baseball bat? Anyway, ordering "drinks only" is easy, you can actually say, " 1 ar-ar-ar-ar (Dr Peppers), 1 ar-ar-ar (Seven Ups) and 3 ark (Coke)"; 3 art = Sprite - remember to hit the "k" or "t" hard. My personal order is easy, it is one of the numbered offerings with no adjustments. My family's order (three children & a wife) is usually printed on a piece of paper in three languages; English, Spanish & Persian. If they are with me, my wife, not being in the driver's seat, leans toward the middle of the car and yells the order from the piece of paper. My job is to scream YES after a bunch of noise from the speaker thing stops. If I am alone (me - speaker thing - and order document) I order by the numbers then show remorse at home because they got the order wrong.
The Future?
With bluetooth technology, perhaps we could type our order into our cell phone and transmit it to the speaker thing? Perhaps a memory card, or a flash drive slot that we can utilize to insert our own storage device that contains an order.html or order.txt file?
