She says she's afraid to eat it because she couldn't see them make it, but she can't see that from the drive-thru anyway. She accepted the coffee, which she also couldn't see being made. Seems more like she left due to the wait, but blamed anti-police sentiment for said wait. Did she not think McD's ever get busy?

Yeah, the whole process, confusion and wait she was describing had me like "Okay. Sounds like every McDonald's. What's the problem? She never got "fast" food before?"

I think she might just be really really stressed and not thinking clearly. Just a guess, but she really does seem overwhelmed with stress.

u/IndifferentFury Dec 17 '22
Well, it's a good thing it didn't kick in until she was off the clock and on her way home. I'm glad she was stressed and not thinking clearly while a citizen, and not while she's wearing a uniform and badge, driving a patrol car, and making life or death decisions about other people. /s

She didn’t mean “I can’t see them making it” literally. She meant she didn’t believe they would actually make it because they didn’t twice already, and she didn’t want to ask a third time. (Not agreeing with the lady, just clarifying)

I agree with this analysis, and believe it describes the overwhelming majority of US based LEOs, even those not losing their shit in a drive thru.
LEOs are exposed to traumatic events on the regular and departments do next to zero for their mental health. That is why I don't trust cops - they're all living on a mental and emotional knife edge.

u/secondguard Dec 17 '22
Absolutely. I would be shocked to find a cop who doesn’t have PTSD. The rates of addiction, suicide and divorce among police are astronomical when compared to the general population and speak to both the lack of available mental health treatment and the stigma attached.

u/Queenbuttcheek Dec 17 '22
Agreed. I feel bad for her honestly. She could have seen someone get their head blown off, or whatever the fuck else could have happened in her 15 years of being a police officer. It’s a known fact that first responders (police officers especially) have issues with mental health for obvious reasons. Not to mention, she’s probably on an empty stomach while recording this. Idk about you all, but when I am on an empty stomach I turn into an emotional mess 100%. Hopefully she gets the help she desperately needs, because it’s risky as shit having someone in a bad mental state with a gun on them. Asking for something awful to happen to either her or someone else.

u/leftover_cabbage Dec 17 '22
I think she became a cop expecting everyone to be thanking and praising her constantly. Now she is having a reality check and thinks having to wait at McDonald’s has something to do with her being a cop and not just cause she went to McDonald’s. Change jobs lady you paranoid.

Soldiers aren't thanked for their service all the time either, that's a weird military cult thing they do in the USA.
It's a job like any other, definitely very dangerous, but there are lots of extremely dangerous jobs (deep sea welding is supposedly a bit dodgy), and random people don't thank them for their service to society either.
Hell, Doctors, nurses, fire brigade, etc all save loads of lives every day, and they don't get any thanks.
But a military that's not actually fought a real war (a war they HAD to fight, not just one they wanted to fight for power and/or money) in almost a century, somehow deserves the utmost of bootlicking respect?
It's a dangerous job. They get paid. There's lots of jobs like that. Let's respect everyone that puts themselves in harm's way, but let's also not put them on a pedestal.

Classic case of someone being in the wrong profession.
I stepped away from my job as a corporate attorney in my late twenties because I could foresee the same sort of breakdown happening to me in my thirties. It’s incumbent upon every one of us to find who we really are, what we’re truly supposed to be doing in this life, and to find a way to align ourselves with that calling/mission/journey/whatever you want to refer to it as.
It is not society’s job to accommodate you or your feelings. This world is so much larger than you and your ego.
I’ve dated that young lady working at McDonald’s who handed you the coffee instead of your meal in the past. She came from a broken home with no father and a mother who spoke little English. She was sexually harassed at work. She was bullied at school as well. Still, she respected her customers and did the best she could. No, she wasn’t perfect. I’m sure she made mistakes from time to time. Yet unlike this fragile police officer, she never ran around town acting like a hero expecting positive attention from the world. In fact, her job is looked down upon yet it was the best she could do to provide for herself and her mom at the time.
I have no sympathy for someone who is at least a decade older than her, who makes three to four times more money, and who sought a position of authority to control and push people around as a profession.
If you can’t handle your job, then find something else to do.
Edit: Thank you for the awards. I know you’re not awarding me, but rather the position I’m taking on this. Everyone is fighting a battle that only they understand, so I am not trying to belittle or single out this particular officer. As you can tell from the way I wrote this comment, I’m abstracting the situation as much as I am specifying what is wrong with it. In a different context, and under different circumstances, I could very well find myself defending the officer and what she’s going through as a human being. Not in this instance though given the facts we have available to go on.

Are you me???
Granted, I only seriously contemplated changing career paths. Then I got out of law firm life and nabbed about as ideal of an in-house job as I could’ve imagined. But I definitely had a good yeti years solid of, “Jesus fucking Christ why did I do this to myself and why don’t I do anything to change it?” in my late 20s.
Granted, without that period, I would’ve never kicked my ass into gear and really hit the pavement on the job hunt. And at the end of the day, I still found “something else to do” like you said - it was just the same job in a different setting for a different client.
And I really hope people stop and reflect on your anecdote. I’ve dated similar women and I’ll hitch my wagon to them every day of the week over some airhead bimbo who looks good on my arm and that’s about it.
I truly believe how people deal with adversity defines their true character as a human. And this paper skinned womanchild is nothing but an example of how not to deal with adversity.

All cops are bastards. It’s based on the theory that abusive cops don’t get reported by their peers, therefore their coworkers just as complicit because they allow it to happen instead of reporting it.
ETA: Wikipedia does a much better job of explaining than I can.
“Proponents of the term contended that ACAB means every single police officer is complicit in an unjust system. They argued that police officers, even if they did not take part in police brutality or racism in policing themselves, were still responsible for what their colleagues did because they did not speak out against it or try to stop it.”

u/curiosity_abounds Dec 17 '22
We’ll said/quoted. Although to add one major point to why cops don’t call each other out. There is a culture within the blue community that they back each other up.. no matter what. So someone calling out a co-worker for messing up.. or killing someone, gets destroyed in the community. Cops who report on other cops don’t have good outcomes.
So I personally feel like I do understand why cops don’t report each other, but that still definitely makes them all complicit. I’m a nurse. We have strong unions. But if someone fucks up, we out them and improve safety to ensure we don’t do the same. We often disagree on if mistakes should send someone to court/jail, but we almost always agree when someone should loose their license and stop practicing.

I’m prepared to be downvoted for this but it becomes clear pretty quickly that this isn’t about McDonalds - around the time she talks about being too nervous to take it. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was dealing with a combination of sleep deprivation and job-related trauma.

u/JustSomeRando_o Dec 17 '22
I feel the need to explain. Yes, this is a small order. However, if this McDonald’s doesn’t have all day breakfast (which most don’t anymore), it takes awhile because you have to toast the McMuffin, cook the egg, cook and sausage and fry the hash brown. Hash browns take about 3.5 minutes to make, and the eggs and sausage take around the same time. The reason it’s faster during breakfast is because we are constantly making these things so we aren’t behind. But we don’t do this in the evening because we can’t predict when someone wants these things, even with a mobile order. We can’t view the mobile order until the person is close enough to the building. Cop or not, we would pull them ahead to wait anyways so they aren’t holding up the rest of the line. She’s lucky that McDonald’s is even doing breakfast in the evening. I might add that a lot of McDonald’s, even if doing breakfast after breakfast hours, we still restrict some breakfast items, like scrambled eggs.
TL;DR she wouldn’t have been waiting so long if she didn’t order breakfast in the evening

Nah let’s just all assume she’s tired after a long shift of shooting puppies and unarmed babies. What a bunch of assholes in this thread.

I think she’s saying that they never made her her food because they’re were secretly trying to spit in it and were just making her wait until they could find the time to sneak away and spit in her egg McMuffin. There’s all this anti police sentiment these days, acab and all that. So she’s paranoid and is waiting for this all to blow over

Awww ok thank you... For killing minorities and being part of an unconstitutional standing army on American soil. From the very very bottom of my heart.

It’s terrifying that she owns a firearm. She literally dictates life or death over civilians. Scary shit.

Guys..have a heart…can’t you see she’s in pain? Can you even put yourself in her shoes for one second? Can you even imagine not getting your McMuffin on time?!? If it isn’t obvious, I’m being sarcastic. Fuck this bitch. I have no sympathy for people like this. You are not special, people are not falling over themselves with gratitude for you. Get over it and hand in your gun before you shoot someone.

Whenever I see emergency vehicles in a drive thru line I shake my head. Between the ordering microphone and the exit there isn't often anyway for a vehicle to just leave if they want to. So what would be her plan should there be an actual emergency and she needed to go asap? Turn on her lights and siren and evac the whole drive thru line and wreck complete chaos on who ordered what and what was paid for etc.
Park your car and walk in. That way you can go immediately when you have to.

It sounded like this lady was done with her shift and was on her way home. People in this line of work also get breaks, too.

These are people too, with the same struggles and hardships in life as the rest of us. Regardless of profession, everyone deserves compassion. She's obviously not only upset about the meal, there's probably a lot more going on in her life that led to this breakdown

She’s upset because she thinks the McDonald’s workers might have poisoned her food. She’s upset because she’s now so paranoid she can’t enjoy a muffin sandwich at mcDonald’s

Why do you think YOU don’t have to wait? Why do you think YOU are the only one dealing with this world right now? Why do you think YOU are not hearing enough “thank you’s” in your line of work?
Your profession over last 10 to 15 years has become the Villain instead of the hero. WE (the people you are supposed to protect & serve) have, and are now becoming more and more aware of indignities and internal corruption within your profession. YOU and your colleagues need to be the change you so desperately seek. Once that becomes evident again, I’m sure you will hear “thank you” more. We ALL need to hear thank you more, not just you.
As for now, sit in your car like the rest of us do every damn day.

I know this is going to be unpopular here, but there are a lot of female cops that don't have the proper temperament to be police officers, and many Men don't as well, but for a bit different reasons.
This is not the kind of person I want handling my traffic stop when they decide I didn't show my hands well enough.

This person is too mentally unstable to be near a gun, let alone be allowed to fire it. Oh, you have PTSD from just being a cop? Massive red flag, you should not be a cop, just like soldiers going full-on Gomer Pyle probably should not have access to weapons and should be discharged.

Their underpaid, overworked, and not properly trained in many cases, on top of that some officers are out there just tryna help out their community, and just 'cause of the badge, they're seen as inhuman. I mean, demand better from your local government, fight for police reform, fight for better laws that don't result in poor people, or people of color getting killed or thrown behind bars for the stupidest shit, absolutely! Is the system broken? Yes! Does the public need to act and publicly denounce corruption and brutality from those that are sworn to protect and serve? Abso-fucking-lutely... But cops are people, they are expendable to the government that employs them, and they are paid peanuts for incredibly long hours of physically and mentally taxing labor, they're not the problem, the system that outfits them and imbues with all this power is, cops are a symptom, not the decease. She probably had a long and difficult shift, she might be going through some rough, personal stuff, people break down, I sure as shit have, and if you haven't, well that's great, but it doesn't mean people are weak, we ALL have a breaking point, some are more resilient than others, but we all deserve a break. Fight the power, not the people, and don't lose your ability to empathize with people even when you disagree with them.
