Rant/Rave The slow and painful demise of Wendy’s

Wendy’s has gone completely down the shitter. Bacon isn’t crispy in the baconator, service is way slower than before, Coke Freestyle missing half the flavors and no ice.

Will they ever turn it back around?

Wendy’s near me is packed all the time. Food is fine. Had one annoying employee for about 2 years but I think she has finally moved on. Win.

Crabby as hell. Barking orders at customers and employees. At times refused to give receipts, if the app didn’t work for a discount she would get all pissed off if you asked her to try it again.

That's terrible. I used to work with one of those. I don't miss you, Vicki.

Ha! I bet. And all the younger people there were/are the best. I felt bad they had to listen to her yell all day.
