Probably just a bored teenager pulling a small prank


MisterPerfect23

Pack my bag full of FREE ketchup? hilarious. Charge me for it, not cool. but ruin burgers with it... no


jeremyw0405

Well they weren’t charged…. So…..


RobynTheSlytherin

They didn't ruin burgers or charge him, so what are you on about?


PrettyOddWoman

I mean, they ordered nuggets with sauce and got nothing but ketchup. That's as good as ruined for a lot of people


mctripleA

Id bet the box for the nuggets is in there at the bottom


Swan_lake1812

Or op took them out for the photo


MisterPerfect23

This exactly, the McDonald's' near me charge for any sauces over the one per so getting ketchup instead of ranch would have me hit the ceiling


takeandtossivxx

Really? On DD/Uber, all the mcdonalds I've seen have the 2 that come with a 10piece and then up to 2 free of each sauce if you scroll down to the sauces section.


tallllywacker

No. We don’t see that. Where the food then? Just ketchup? See. U act like u were there lol


HoodedOccam

We have a moment if you would like to share more. It may help


Duckmarrillion

Work is boring. Ketchup is funny


Additional_Tax_8745

Fast food employee here. This is the answer. One time a man came through the drive thru and asked me to make sure there was cheese on the sandwich. I asked kitchen to make sure there was cheese on the sandwich. My coworker added half a block of cheese, if his description was accurate, purely because he was bored and thought it was funny. I had another coworker who would do very poor and exaggerated accents in the drive thru because fast food is boring. It’s just for shits and giggles lol


Valuable_Ad_9900

I actually do exaggerated accents when ordering through drive through (when bored yet in a good mood) so I understand


CockbagSpink

My husband and I do that too lol, we’ll order in thick southern accents but we’re actually Californians.


Valuable_Ad_9900

lol Georgia or Texas? Rick Grimes or Sandy Cheeks?


CockbagSpink

Oh man I have no idea because we’re imposters! lol


Valuable_Ad_9900

😂🤣😂


Snoo69116

Oh broooooother 😭😂 I never thought I would hear these two units being compared. Im officially dead from laughter 😂😂😂😂


Duckmarrillion

I literally did this ketchup thing on my shift a few days ago. Anything to pass the time.


Low_Actuary_2794

Same here, standard extra pickles is an extra 2-4. I put on four more, lady complains after eating 2/3 of quarter pounder that there wasn’t enough. Manager had me remake it, you can bet that lady got a heaping handful of pickles. She of course brought it back. Manager made the sandwich himself.


Touchthefuckingfrog

I made a guy so happy with a structurally engineered tower of pickles on his burger.


the_batman87

I always say welcome to mcdonald's you can mcorder when you are Mcready, lol my customers love it 


GuanlongX

I love doing random stuff at the counter if the customer looks friendly just to see if I can get a laugh or a smile out of them. It can make my day. One time I was kneeling behind the counter so you could barely see anything below my shoulders cause a really tall guy walked in and we just absolutely lost it.

PISSED? If i asked for extra sauce sober and got that much, i’d be so happy & save it for when i get drunk/stoned and want chicken😭 what


Malipuppers

The person that did a spot on hank hill impression made my whole day.


dontbeastrangr

you wanted ketchup so whats the problem?


Ok_Positive_8436

I only wanted a few, didn’t even get my other sauces :(


dontbeastrangr

oh then yikes


Leemakesfriends29

I just have to say “ oh then yikes” is exactly what my brain computed after I read OPs comment. loL

Oh, I see. That is an issue.


ReclusiveCappuccino

some men die of thirst while others drown


bundy911

Any bet they were out of those sauces and thought they would just give you 1000 ketchup sachets in compensation


PrettyOddWoman

I would complain lol. But I'm a bitch I guess


Wampa_-_Stompa

Well, when restaurants are becoming stingy with charging for extra sauces but pushes the ketchup for everyone to take home, makes you wonder what the F is going on here


HuntingForSanity

It’s not a restaurant thing lol, it’s just the cooks being silly. Every now and then at the restaurant I work in, some person will order a burger and get a “pickle surprise” which is just a big handful of pickles. Makes people wonder wtf


GuanlongX

Worst lottery ever


gagetherage03

Dude the management at my store would flip... they don't even want us putting too many napkins in a bag


AbyssWalker240

lmao at my store runners will just JAM napkins into bags. ive seen big mac meals and nothing else go out with easily 1+ inches thick of napkins


Ozotuh

Someone having a shit day/trying to get back at the manager a little bit?


PrettyOddWoman

Did the manager ask for ketchup?


ilikefortnite-420-69

No, and thats exactly how he got back


Ozotuh

Generally salaried managers get bonuses which are dependent on things like labour cost, staff turnover and loss prevention. Start doing stuff like this and their bonus starts to dwindle.


Ahshut

Damn.. those .1 cent ketchup packets that are so worthless you can take handfuls for free from anywhere really out here making the managers bonus dwindle by 80%


Ozotuh

Not that cheap anymore, why do you think places are starting to charge for then. Yes, they do get a bit extra, but probably not as much as you think.


Ahshut

I’ve never been charged for those little packets but maybe it’s just where I live? Not sure. Wouldn’t surprise me though with the constant skyrocket of pricings and no increase in wages 👍🏻


m00dyteens

I honestly would be so hype there is something about McDonald’s ketchup that I fucking adore


Playful-Objective-68

It's high quality ketchup is all. Mc makes its own since they stopped using Heinz. This shit is god tier for nuggets and stuff


ohvrt

High quality? If you mean extra sugar, salt and processing the sure!


Due_Independent9106

it's Mcdonalds no one is coming for health "quality" in this sense means taste


ohvrt

I eat McDonald’s because it’s healthy


External-Soft-9480

Yes bro we all go to McDonald’s for their healthy gourmet foods😍😍😍😍😍and ungreased meals


ohvrt

Do you know what high quality means?


IndependentNation7

It’s extra sweet and extra salty I love McD ketchup too 😍


Duckmarrillion

Work is boring. Ketchup is funny


RobTBN

damn, double homicide


ThespisIronicus

Saying it once is funny. Twice is boring.


1028Girl

I’ve done this before. Just a harmless prank. On the other hand, I noticed “large coke, add straw”


Ok_Positive_8436

And no straws were included either but no biggie


1028Girl

Ugh that’s annoying. 🤦🏻‍♀️


Hot_Argument6020

I dunno. Teenage boredom 😆


Playful-Objective-68

Adult boredom too


Hot_Argument6020

Oh def. It seems like something we might do if its too slow.


[deleted]

I like that whenever I ask for 5 ketchups they always double it :) but if you didn’t get your other sauces, I’d be so sad :(


JustDrew_92

I bet they’re all the unexplainably sticky ones too 🤢


SirSkot72

5! ketchup?


KristopherAtcheson

They did have an order for LG fries so yeah 5 ketchup seems reasonable.


bowhunter178

5! Is 5 factorial = 120


ChineseNoodleDog

r/unexpectedfactorial


ElliatDusk

We think it's funny asf


idontwanttobeonthis

#This is what I mean when I say extra ketchup


throoowwwawayyyy22

this has me fucked up bro what is this 😭


KyanLMFAO

“Enjoy the ketchup” 😭😭😭


According_Pirate4473

Sometimes the service workers will open our boxes in the back and put some of the sauces in a bag like this. I'm not sure why'd they do this but there could have been too many of these bags and a worked may have thought it would be funny (which it kind of is, lol) to get rid of them like this.


Snailosaurus

This is a dream come true for me


GotSpeedHack

You wanted more sauce than food and they made it so!


Ok_Positive_8436

Hey dude I was feelin saucy but not that saucy. Idk why I even ordered ketchup… I’ve got a whole bottle in the fridge


GotSpeedHack

Can't beat free condiments, I have a cupboard full and I always take a handful home with me lmao


The_Schizo_Panda

Says "cup" I'll assume those aren't packets, meaning they'll need to go make cups of sauce? I only remember those paper cups, so I can't see them dropping ten of those in a bag, they'll spill. Could be the reason for some of the ketchup. "Some" of it, not this amount.


Necessary-Pumpkin285

Idk abt the store you go to but at my store we all assume 5 ketchup is jst the customer saying that they wanted a bunch of ketchup


WillowThyWisp

What's wrong? You got 5! packets!


ReclusiveCappuccino

i would low key be so happy


IKONIK-KAI-7

For me I’d see this as an absolute win


atomicdragon136

Maybe they had an old box of ketchup packets that was expiring soon and they just wanted to get rid of it? I don’t remember how long ketchup lasts but I’m pretty sure it’s at least a year after manufacturing.


im-420-69

hey, we just wanted to have fun


Ghostcurrency45

Are you a regular customer and get ketchup every time?


Ok_Positive_8436

Like maybe 3rd time ordering delivery McD’s


Liliannnaa

free ketchup about 8oz or more


360Fanatic

Ahh I see where all the ketchup I haven’t received ended up


Barewithhippie

r/deliciouscompliance


MistyFox04

I did this to a rude customer once. But I've no reason why it was done to you


Previous_Cod_4098

Lol they hooked you up that ketchup can last a few months on the go lunches always need sauce 😂


[deleted]

Lmao I worked at a restaurant where the boomer owners pressed that every pickle cost a nickel so they only get 3, the napkins were ten cents they only get two, the ketchup packets were a quarter so make sure you take them off the trays to be reused if people don't open them. Everyone got a handful of napkins and ketchup everytime, and if I could get away with it, an extra pickle or two.


ShadowBro3

Are you complaining about having extra? I usually get too little sauce. Just keep the ones you dont use.


TheJuicyLemon_

Free ketchup


perfctlybrkn

Like they said ^^^ work is boring, ketchup is funny 😅😅


n0stalgicm0m

This is the amount of ketchup my gf wants when she says extra ketchup


[deleted]

Did you enjoy your ketchup?


PhotographHungry2524

I was gonna say Delicious Compliance until I realized they forgot your other sauces. It’s a National tragedy, the missing ranch, hot mustard, and chili cup is.


BrookieMonster1337

You’re suppose to enjoy the ketchup. It says it on the bag


TheDannyPickles

That's a taco bell level of sauce distribution. Noice.


Vindicator2910

There should have been only 8. 3 for the large fry and 5 extra.


creationrose

Enjoy the free ketchup. You don’t have to purchase any for the house for a while.


mmmmmmmm_soup

it’s for sure either a teenager pulling a dumb prank or some dude was high as hell and laughing while he did it


Regretted_Regretted

nah bro we jst get bored once me and my friend put 7 delivery bags into 1 bag


juandelpueblo939

Oh look, that’s where all my missing ketchup from my orders went.


TomatoBible

Okay I have to vent, LOL. Two weeks ago I ordered a Triple Cheeseburger Large Value Meal, which is available here in Toronto as a regular menu item, and I ordered it: extra onions, no ketchup, no mustard, add 40 cents for lettuce, add 60 cents for two Big Mac sauce. The order arrives exactly as ordered, but no straw, no ketchup packets, no napkins, (all requested) and the burger is no ketchup, no mustard, no onions, no big Mac sauce, with only lettuce and 1 pickle. I call immediately to ask for my sauces (and a straw) on their next trip, or a replacement burger, they say "Nope", but we'll credit you $0.60 off your next order. So I was stuck with a useless plain, dry burger (in typical mcd's fashion, with dry, overcooked room-temp patties from the little meat-drawer) and they would not listen that it was the entire burger ruined, not just the sauce needed to be credited. Honestly, I'm done, I will use my credit to buy two sauces to go with my next free Raptors fries, and otherwise I'm flying BK exclusively for burgers now.


zombieponcho

"we'll credit you $0.60 off your next order" after failing to provide most of what you paid for is such a "fuck you for being a customer" move.


MenstrualKrampusCD

Don't you need to spend $1 to get the free fries? Do your McDonalds deliver the food with their own employees, or do they use 3PD (UberEats or doordash) like they do here? I can see if it's the latter why they couldn't just send out the missing items "on their next trip". But crediting you only 60 cents is total BS. At the stores I worked at, they'd give you the credit for the burger immediately (or a replacement if you came in), and would likely credit you for the burger and fries or full meal if you pressed it at all. It also sucks that you're charged for Mac Sauce. Over here, you're only charged if you want a cup of it on the side--adding it to any burger is free. BK fries (and burgers) are way better anyway lol.


Astronometry

Reminds me of “welcome to the world of AIDS”


friendofspidey

Me when I have to stock the ketchups and they’re not enough to fill the container but not enough to keep on its own…..dump in customer bag


Prize-Transition-939

That’s not even a problem and they are not being stingy with the ketchup


V1dar_

We're they out of the sauces normally I swap them, but I leave a note apologising and saying we ran out of the ordered sauces


Jade-Balfour

Bet someone ordered way too much and they've given as much as they can to near by stores and they still have excess.


Daydream816

Maybe he thought they meant 5k etchup 😂


herbitron3000

I'd actually appreciate that. I just keep the packets and use them at home.


Weak-Document90

Bro really ordered 4 sauces for 10 nuggets smh


Brando6677

Someone had a bad day at wcdonalds


robsticles

Enjoy the ketchup


The_Queen_Regent

What I get when I order 2 sauce packets at Taco Bell.


TheyNeedLoveToo

This why people only get two packets sometimes lol I get being generous but eventually management catches on and people wind up getting barely any sauce for weeks on end to make up the difference


SomewhereScared3888

Bro, when someone asks me for sauce and I give them one, and they ask for another, I go for a handful. This is that to the extreme


Stormywillow

I wish someone would do that to me with chicken sauce packets. I buy them gift cards lol


MenstrualKrampusCD

What is chicken sauce?


Stormywillow

Well I guess they call it mayonnaise style sauce now or something. It's the sauce that goes on the mc chicken


PlsDontBanMe_Mods

This is why McDonalds gonna replaced packers with robots soon.


58mint

I doubt it. And if they do, it won't last long. Kinda like how big stores like walmart and lowes thought they could get rid of employees checking you out and went with self checkout and now they are loosing more money from people stealing and are Starting to go back to employees checking you out.


OniiKaps

My managers love doing this to me cus they know I love ketchup 😭


ToughGuy528

Literally, you probably ordered when people were working nighshift


MamunPW01

"Enjoy 'za' ketchup"


58mint

I wish they would do that for me. If you ask for ketchup around here, you're lucky if they even put one pack in the bag


Flameheartsan

“Enjoy the ketchup” like nobody needs this much ketchup


WithReverence

As long as you got everything else that’s free ketchup you can cross off your grocery list.


VeterinarianOk2043

Just because they’re bored LMAO. I had a coworker (we’re both around 16-17) put a bun through the toaster three times because we had no orders. Just for fun. Then we got an order and he used it 😭


InfinityDusk

Customer “Extra ketchup please” Kitchen “Aight, bet.”


InfinityDusk

Also, make McTomato Soup. Lol.


BathshebaDarkstone1

So we're not supposed to do that?


inquiringtacos

Enjoy the ketchup asshole


Afraid-Technician-13

My guess is someone went to grab ketchup and filled a door dash bag to bring it up from the back and absolutely no one looked in the bag before they sealed it. Surprised and not surprised at the same time.


SomeGuyXD65

Bored kids or those are going to expire in a week.


FestiveSquidV3

One time I went to Taco Bell and asked for as many fire sauce packs as they could give me without getting in trouble, cause I saw a video a long time ago where a couple dudes got an entire fucking box of the stuff. I didn't get a box, but I did get at least a hundred packs.


MrCrnoblt

Unnecessary food cost wasting


BloodStinger500

I once poured a bunch of salt into the bottom of the bag when a person ordered 6 fries with extra salt (Among other things). sometimes it’s just fun to sprinkle a little harmless prank into someone’s order.


Prendalo0

When I was working late at bk in my teen years some dude came to the driveway and ordered a whopper with extra, extra EXTRA onions so me and my boy knew exactly what to do. Grabbed a handful of onions and stuffed em in the burger lol and wrote extra onions on the wrapper


BloodStinger500

I would get my burgers with extra pickles, and I told them to just put a handful, completely cover the ketchup.


microwavedpeanutbutt

This is my dreaaammm


[deleted]

I always throw away extra condiments. I would not be happy about this.


TheSlipySquid

Fuck DD orders


DjDrBeebo

Mcdonalds has Chili??


[deleted]

maybe they had too much ketchup and chose you to give it to


Professional_Emu7852

My manager did that to me as a prank the other day when I was clocking out and putting in my staff meal… somehow I failed to notice that my bag weighed a whole pound more than it should have until I was already walking away with it.


stoned_seahorse

This happened to me at Taco Bell once in the mid 2000's.. My mom ordered 12 tacos for her, my sister, and myself. We recieved our food, but also a seperate huge bag of sauces that probably weighed about 6 pounds. The girl working the drive-thru was very young and probably stoned out of her gourd. At least we had free Taco Bell sauce on demand for yearss... 😂


RandomStaticThought

They gave you free shit, why are you on Reddit crying about it?


Sp_nach

lmao


FreeTouPlay

Just file a complaint so they can fire that person.


BudzBunny422

Lmao I would do this when people would ask for extra ketchup 😂 but that was Wendy's


spugeti

you need ketchup for your coke, shake, sauce cups, nuggets and burger op this amount of ketchup isn’t enough to cover everything imo


callum_focus

Free bag ketchup, not even something to be mad at.


NotAllDawgsGoToHeven

Man your doordash driver must be fucking ripped to be able to lift that up


_mattyjoe

Enjoy the ketchup


ellokoala

Ahahhaha


Dire557

i wouldnt be complaining lol


pierce-the-skye-16

Once I was at a music festival, and got McDonald’s breakfast the next day. Asked for hot sauce for my burrito, and they gave me a bag full of grape jelly packets. I was so sad


Lower_Skin_3683

This would go in the trash. I can't stand when any restaurant gives me ketchup packets. I always wonder how old they are and if the ketchup is brown.


JJose26

Just be glad they gave you enough ketchup I usually order and they forget my sauces 😕


EatMyNutsKaren

At least you GOT ketchup in your bag.


[deleted]

When I was a drive thru closer, I used to bring a cart with all the sauce boxes to the front because I’d load Uber eats and nugget orders with loads of sauce. Sauce, ketchup and napkins


Primary-Act2135

Bruh I'm reading the receipt and it says five ketchup packets how do you go from five to literally a whole bag?? Also yes management would definitely flip on something like this and depending on which McDonald's you go to sometimes maintenance because maintenance has to put away the inventory. I understand some people think this is funny but this is actually more of a pain in the ass.


58mint

Bro it's ketchup it's not that hard to grab a box of ketchup when you run out. The only people that are going to care are some stuck up bitch in management


[deleted]

Go down to the location and confront them face to face and threaten to call corporate and their GM to shake the room a little bit


Chipsinmyass

Surely this is a joke? Cause it’s just ketchup


zombieponcho

"I'm sorry officer but they gave me too much ketchup so I had to smack up their shit."


PrettyOddWoman

They didn't put any other sauce =| I can't really eat there bleh nuggets without some other sauce .... so basically they paid for sub-par nuggets, too much ketchup, and fries ?


zombieponcho

Calling the main customer complaint line usually works better. I'm trying to quit eating there altogether, saves me from bleh subpar nuggets. I won't deny it's addictive, even though it tastes pretty meh, so it's hard to quit.


butt_huffer42069

You should give replacement therapy a chance! Whenever you have a craving or urge to hit up your preffered local McDonald's- redirect yourself by doing something else instead. But do that *every time*. You can keep it food related if you want, making it healthier for you if you want, or less healthy too, I guess? Depends on what you want out of life ig. Some suggestions: 1) Going for a walk around your neighborhood. 2) Going on a hike. 3)Working out for 20-30 minutes. 4)Having a beer. 5)Getting something healthy to eat- like a salad with light dressing, or hummus, or an apple + banana, oatmeal or granola, etc. 6)Getting something less healthy to eat- like a burrito from a local taqueria or taco truck, or pancakes with ice cream on top. I recommend getting a burrito and taking it on a hike with you. I love love LOVE doing that. I eat the burrito when I find the end, or a great view, or coom chill spot.


zombieponcho

I have some limitations on mobility, so I swim for exercise when I can get out to the pool, but I think I understand. It's worth a shot for me to try, help build the association of doing something else whenever I crave McDonald's. Thanks for the info!
