I went to McDonald's today and got a Filet-O-Fish combo with a bacon cheeseburger on the side. I was eating it in my vehicle in the parking lot and listening to an audiobook when I glanced up and saw the McDonald's worker I ordered outside having a cigarette.

She waved at me and I nodded and had to wait 7 minutes before she went back inside and I could eat in comfort again. I don't think that employees should be bothering or even trying to socialize with customers outside of the McDonald's restaurant or drive through, but that is another story.

I went to McDonald's for dinner tonight and got a McChicken combo with a bacon cheeseburger on the side. As I was driving to the second window the same girl was still working. She was acting somewhat obsequious and attempting small talk when she asked, 'why don't you come eat inside instead of in the parking lot where it is cold'.

That really bothered me for many reasons. First of all, I don't want my routine or actions to be tracked by a fast food employee. Secondly, she should not try to tell me how I should live my life. I do not want to eat inside because I find it less comfortable and would much rather be inside my vehicle listening to an audiobook and enjoying myself and my privacy.

Overall, I think it was very unprofessional to bring this up. I should have a clean slate with each drive through visit, not have to get the third degree because I committed some sort of faux pas. Which I don't think I did, because I often see people eating in fast food parking lots. How does she know I am not busy going to work or somewhere in a rush?

How do you feel about eating in your vehicle in the parking lot of a fast food restaurant versus eating inside the restaurant?

You can't talk about the weather? The new traffic lights? The stupid new bike lanes? The budget increase for the city council? How bad the game was last night?

Small talk isn't about the size of your peepee or whether you sniff your cousin's underwear. 99% of the human race doesn't give a crap about your sad life. They just want to bitch about the snow and once you're out of sight you are out of mind, snowflake.

When a person asks me what I do for a living or about sports it may as well be about those. I was just trying to convey how uncomfortable people starting up a conversation makes me feel

>99% of the human race doesn't give a crap about your sad life
It's not about me thinking they care at all. I just don't feel comfortable doing it. I don't think somebody should be allowed to talk to me unless it's absolutely necessary to complete a transaction or something. I'm basically on the verge of a panic attack in any public place and people speaking to me makes it even worse.

I really cannot grasp how "hey! our team is undefeated!" equals "does your uncle like to touch you?" If a clerk asks you how you are doing just smile and say "gettin' it done" and leave it at that. That response does not invite further conversation and hides your autism.

Heres my McDonlads experience:

Standing in the line, I order a vanilla milk shake (“Extra -thick,” I warn the guy, who just shakes his head and flips on a machine) and take it to a table up front. Two waitresses from the Cat Club walk in after me and sit in the booth across from mine, both smiling flirtatiously. I play it cool and ignore them. An old, crazy woman, wrinkled, chain-smoking, sits near us, nodding at no one. A police car passes by, and after two more milk shakes my high slowly dissolves, its intensity diminishing. I grow bored, tired; the evening seems horribly anticlimactic and I start cursing myself for not going to that Salvadorian bistro with the guys. The two girls linger, still interested. I check my watch. One of the Mexicans working behind the counter stares at me while smoking a cigarette and he studies the stains on the Soprani jacket in a way that suggests he’s going to say something about it, but a customer comes in, one of the black guys who tried to sell me crack earlier, and he has to take the black guy’s order. So the Mexican puts out his cigarette and that’s what he does.
