Everybody is trying to screw me
(and not in a good way)

It seems like everyone is trying to screw me.  But this isn't a personal issue - they are trying to screw you too - and everyone you know for that matter.  Hell, there's more screwing going on nowadays then their was in the rockin' muddy tents of Woodstock.  We are talking about serious cases of getting bent over without the courtesy of a squirt of vaseline or even a dab of KY Jelly.

On a recent trip to Burger King, the home of The Whopper, I noticed a poster that is intended for the employees hanging well within my site.  The poster was basically telling employees to sell a large size value meal unless the customer specifies a different size.  This basically means that unless you specifically say that you would like a small or medium when you order then you are getting screwed for an extra 89¢ so that you can have a full gallon of soda and 5 or 6 extra french fries.  

You may think that 89¢ isn't a big deal, but think about it like this:  According to www.burgerking.com, they serve approximately 15 million customers daily.  If 2/3 of these people order a value meal, and 2/3 of them don't think to specify that they don't want a large, then we are talking about $5,815,260 PER DAY, or $21,22,569,900 PER YEAR that Burger King rakes in due to a shady business practice.  And I believe that my "2/3 of 2/3" number is a very conservative estimate.

As if this isn't bad enough, the same poster offers cash and prizes to the employees who sell the most large size value meals.  This leads me to believe that almost anyone who orders a value meal is getting screwed.  My asshole and my wallet are put in jeopardy so that some high school kid can win a cd player or 50 bucks.  So the next time that you order a value meal, stand proud and proclaim that you refuse to be screwed.
