At my Mcdonalds, we make it a practice to offer on duty police officers free meals when they come through our drive thru. This is to keep them close to the restaurant evenings and nights, so that if there is an incident in our 24 hour drive thru, they'll be close at hand. Believe me, there have been instances where we've needed the police, and they were merely a few cars behind in line.
As the manager last night, I had to go down into our drive thru both and promo out a cops meal. We chit chatted a bit, and he asked if he could have dessert too...well, normally i wouldn't give it to them, but he was pretty cute, so i gave him a free flurry, and told him he owed me.
Now, I finished work around 2:30am, struggling with the days cash deposit because an earlier manager had messed it up royally. After dropping off one of my maintainance workers at her home, I pulled up to a red light. The light on the opposite street was turning yellow, so I did a bit of a stop and roll and turned right at the red. Aparantly I didn't stop enough, because 2 seconds later, I saw police lights. At almost 3 in the morning, with the 11 hour shift I had just finished, I was not too happy to be in that situation. I just wanted to get home in too much of a hurry it seems. Well, the officer approached my window with his flashlight, and low and behold, its flurry guy!! He saw me, and just started to laugh. He said: You just got off? Thats crazy! Oh, that flurry was pretty good....if i come in and see you tomorrow night, can i have another one?"
I just sort of laughed nervously and said, Yes i guess so...so is this the moment where i ask for the favour you owe me?"
Which he found quite funny. So, with the promise of free flurries when he comes in, and also the promise to come to a complete stop next time, I made my way home, shaking my head at the fact that I not only got away with running a red light, but bribing a police officer as well.
It must be my good looks and wonderful charm......and my flurry machine.
