Too much time at McDonald's?

Yesterday, I was waiting at a red light about 10 miles from my residence, when I hear a voice from the car in the lane next to me yelling "Hey beautiful!" I turn and look over . Now, I'd like to say that I'm so hot that this happens often, however, it does not. The words that followed the "Hey beautiful", were "been to McDonald's lately?" Since I recognized the guy, I informed him that I had not, because I'm cutting back on junk food. At that point, he told me that he hadn't been there lately either, and he quit McDonald's because it didn't pay enough. My response was "Well, duh!"

As the light changed he said "Nice talking to you, beautiful".


I don't know if I am more troubled by the fact that I've frequented the 24-hr McDonald's so much that I had a drive-thru pal or that he quit and no one will compliment me the next time my willpower breaks and I am back at the drive thru picking up a grilled chicken wrap or chicken nuggets and fries.

I completly understand. I had a simular problem with the pizza delivery person...I figured once they knew me, maybe I should stop ordering pizza for dinner.
