A McDonald’s customer has been slammed for complaining after he ordered ‘a salad with no lettuce’ and got exactly what he asked for.
James Ellinsworth says he ordered a Shaker Salad without lettuce from a McDonald’s Drive-Thru in Leven, Fife, Scotland, last weekend.
He claims he received a small portion of two slices of cucumber and a slice of beef tomato- while he was expecting cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and a selection of seasonal salad leaves minus the lettuce.
James Ellinsworth was expecting cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and a selection of seasonal salad leaves without lettuce but got two slices of cucumber and a slice of tomato instead
Mr Ellinsworth, from Anstruther in Fife, Scotland, posted a hilarious photo on social media but didn’t receive much sympathy from other social media users.
He shared the snap online with a caption ‘Leven drive thru, ordered a salad with no lettuce and this is what I got……. Are you having a laugh McDonald’s?’
However McDonald’s fans didn’t agree with his complaint and branded him a ‘Karen’ for complaining over receiving ‘exactly what he’d asked for’.
Sarah Megarry said: ‘Would you have been happier if you didn’t get what you asked for?
‘Most people complain about that, it takes a special type of Karen to complain about getting what you asked for.’
Kathy Brown said: ‘What did you expect lol salads are like 80% lettuce.’
He shared a photo on social media but didn’t find much sympathy from McDoanld’s fans
He explained he was expecting cherry tomatoes, seasonal leaves and cucumber
James then replied: ‘Maybe more slices of tomato and cucumber?’
Kathy added: ‘We’re not allowed to give you extra just because you’ve removed an item.’
James said: ‘Extra? Even if it had lettuce, one slice of tomato and two slices of cucumber doesn’t constitute a salad!
‘McDonald’s Shaker Salad. Seasonal salad leaves, cucumber and cherry tomatoes’ where are the seasonal leaves, and has the cherry tomato been genetically modified?’
In another exchange, Stefan Gibbs said: ‘So you’re complaining about receiving your order how you asked.’
The disappointed customer was branded ‘Karen’ for complaining about getting exactly what he ordered
Socia media users didn’t see his point of view and said he ‘got what he asked for’
James said: ‘I ordered a salad not a slice of tomato and two slices of cucumber. I was expecting seasonal salad leaves, cucumber and cherry tomatoes as in their description.
‘Thanks for your comment though, enjoy your day keyboard gangster.’
Stefan said: ‘Lol. No you ordered a salad not lettuce, meaning that they are gonna take out the seasonal leaves as they are classed a[s] lettuce. Maybe they ran out of cherry tomatoes.
‘You’re very welcome happy to help. Hope you enjoy your day to[o] Karen.’
