USA here. I’ve gone to McDonalds twice in the past year. Here’s the experience:

1. Wait in line at the Drive Thru for 15 minutes.
2. Get to the speaker, no one acknowledges me for several minutes.
3. Someone finally asks me what I want. I tell them and it’s radio silence for several minutes, no acknowledgement that they heard me. The screen that shows my order is shattered.
4. “Pull around”
5. Get to the window, person opens it and holds out their hand for my payment. Doesn’t tell me how much it is or confirm my order. Doesn’t respond when I say “Hello, how are you?”
6. Get to the next window, wait several minutes.
7. Get my food. Person at the window doesn’t respond to my hello, Doesn’t even look at me.
8. Get home, fries are raw, order is wrong.

I go to Wendy’s sometimes for the chili and it’s a similar experience, but at least my order is always right. Taco Bell at least the people say hi, depending on who is working.

I wonder if you’re allergic to one of the fillers they use in the meat?

Go to bed earlier. Give yourself 9 or 10 hours to sleep so that you wake up before your alarm rested.

Not possible for some people, but as a single person without kids it works for me.

One to two minutes late to most meetings. I don’t have time or energy for the BS of “How are you” etc. Let’s get down to business.

Caveat is that if it’s with a VIP I’ll be exactly on time.

Sleeping is my super power - I fall asleep within two or three minutes every night. Here’s how I do it.

• No caffeine ever.
• Listen to the same white noise track every night while sleeping. Your brain will recognize that the track equals time to sleep.
• Go to bed at the same time every day, even on weekends.
• Don’t hang out in bed. The bed is only for sleeping or sex. No phone use in bed.
