GIVE ME SOME FREAKING KETCHUP!!!

  I will try to make this quick. I don't want to sound all whiny and complainy, but this has been building for a while and I just need to get it off of my chest.

  When did fast food places stop just automatically giving you ketchup when you order french fries? I remember a time when you would go through the drive thru and you didn't even have to ask for ketchup. When you went home or back to work and opened your bag, inside was always a couple packs of ketchup. You never had to ask.

  I'm not sure if they stopped doing it because of financial reasons or because putting two packs of ketchup in each take out bag added an extra 4.3 seconds to the time it took to get the order together and that was just unacceptable by headquarters standards.

  You know I probably wouldn't be so frustrated by them not just giving me ketchup if they would at least do it when I asked them for it. Has that ever happened to you. You go through the Wendy's drive thru, place your order and when they ask if that is all you add, "Can I have some ketchup please?" Now here's they thing. They tell you yes, so when you get your bag you just assume its there. Well, let me tell you something. When you assume, you end up searching your fridge for anything that fries might taste good dipped in. Tonight i ended up using mustard. That's right. On this slightly rainy evening, I fell victim to drive thru laziness. Oh the horror. THE HORROR!

  If any of the fast food big wigs are reading this, please just toss a pack of ketchup in my bag. It won't break you and I will greatly appreciate it. 

  Let me leave you with these words of wisdom. I believe it was Plato who said, "Do not be a f--k up. Give me some ketchup."
