Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, everybody. Welcome back to your stupid opinions. Welcome back. Here we go. Hey, thank you for joining us. My name is James Petrigal. I'm here with my co-host. I'm Jimmy Wiseman. We are here again today to hear more people's complaints and grievances about places we've never been and don't want to go from people we certainly don't want to talk to. So it's the best show going. You don't have to talk to these people. You would love to hear these reviews. but you don't want to actually have to deal with them. So we'll be the middlemen here is what we're doing. We'll bring you just the funniest of them and have a good time doing it. Head over to shut up and give me murder.com for all the merchandise. We'll also find out about our other shows, crime in sports and small town murder.
Starting point is 00:00:56 If you haven't listened to those, they're just what they sound like, except really funny too on top of it. So please check those shows out and get yourself some merch and keep hanging out with us. And then bring yourself over to the Home Depot. Oh, yeah. 81-81-airline highway in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, as we talked about. The hottest Home Depot attendance is out there. What are they called? Associates.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Associates, yeah, with their, the hottest people with their name scribbled on their clothing that you're ever going to find. You never find it anywhere else. Wouldn't it be cheaper to, corporation-wise, wouldn't it be cheaper just to print out name tags rather than writing on an apron? it would seem that way. Maybe that writing comes off real easy. I'm not sure. It looks like it's a marker, though, so I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:01:46 What's your name? We have a Megan one in the back. Go grab that one. Yeah, just go grab a Megan smock. Megan quit last month, and we saved her smock because it's a common name. So we started out last week with some positive. Now let's get into the negative of Home Depot in Baton Rouge with Thara one star. This is a fucking long one, and it's funny as shit.
Starting point is 00:02:06 Okay, let's start. Yeah. Came in today to purchase a window. Seems pretty normal. How hard can that be? Right? The cashier at customer service was too busy looking at Instagram reels and seemed highly irritated that she had a job to do. Yeah, she's in the middle of a fucking, of a hole here.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Yeah, she's looking at her competition. She's hot, you understand. Jesus Christ. Now, working at the customer service at fucking Home Depot. She's the influence. of the team. Not a lot of hoties going at the home, the customer service desk at the Home Depot, usually. Yeah, they're usually at the pro desk. That's where you're going to fight the paint. That's where they are. No, I have no idea. All I was doing to cut was, all I was doing was coming to
Starting point is 00:02:53 pick up an order. Not a single word except for her just rolling her eyes. I came to a pickup window. Or I came to pick up a window, sorry. She didn't even check my ID to confirm I was the right person picking up the order. How the fuck would anybody else know that there's a under your fucking name. How is that public information where you'd need an ID to get that? It's probably you, we assume. Okay. She scanned it, didn't say a word, and just dragged the window on the floor.
Starting point is 00:03:23 There were a lot of flatbed in the way, and she asked me if I had a cart. There were none flatbed ones near, so I grabbed a regular cart. Mind you, I'm pregnant and can't pick up anything heavy. This gets even better. Why did your husband send you to go pick shit up at home being? Who knows? You don't know if she's got a guy. Oh, there's that.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Yeah. She may be a single lady. Who knows? And she just told me to get a cart and walked off. Didn't offer to help and just seemed highly irritated. Oh, boy. Didn't offer to have anyone else help me either. Didn't try to move the carts of products that were in the way for me to get this window.
Starting point is 00:04:01 I don't know if you've noticed, but she doesn't give a fuck about you, I think is the. No. I think that's what we just should talk about. Yeah. It's you can do it. We can help. We're not doing it for you. And we're not really helping.
Starting point is 00:04:14 We can help. It doesn't say we will help. You know, can we do it. Yes, we can. Doesn't mean, yes, we will. That's a different story. Totally different. So this was a hazard in and of itself.
Starting point is 00:04:28 Then luckily, another customer assisted me in at least putting the window in the card. Then I said out loud, thank you, sir. This is customer service. This is what customer service should be doing. The cashier was talking about me to another customer who was also cursing really loud about me. This fucking pregnant bitch thinks we're going to pick her windows up. I came back to get her name and she walked off because she refused to give me her name. Just look at her smock.
Starting point is 00:04:56 It's right there. Yeah, it's written in Sharpie. You can see it. So I took pictures of her and then the customer she was talking about me with. started cursing me out. The customer started yelling at her. Started threatening to beat me up. Okay, now we've gotten
Starting point is 00:05:15 way beyond picking up a window. Well, that's when you take pictures of random strangers in public, I guess. They beat the baby out of you? That seems excessive. They say shit like, I'm going to kick her or something. People at Home Depot do.
Starting point is 00:05:29 Yeah, that's crazy. That doesn't seem like a reasonable response. I'll beat up a pregnant woman. How dare you? Like, that's insane. That's what NASCAR fans do. For real. This is also Baton Rouge we're talking about.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Yeah. Yeah. And then as I was walking out, he assaulted me. He assaulted. This isn't a woman threatening to kick her ass. Say it again. This is a man saying, I'll beat your pregnant ass right here in the fucking window aisle at Home Depot, which is beyond fucking crazy. It's saying, quote, she's on the clock, but I'm not.
Starting point is 00:06:03 Meaning she can't beat you up, but I can. He got in my face and started threatening to beat me up. And the worker was just there watching it after she instigated it. What is happening at this Home Depot? What the fuck? This was the scariest and most unnecessary experience ever. This was highly unprofessional and could have been even more dangerous. I would say there is a picture of the woman there.
Starting point is 00:06:26 And the man who threatened to beat her up. She's got that picture posted here. The woman looks really nice too. That's the funny part. She's got like a sweater on. she looks nice and the guy's like an older black dude like he looks like he's in his 60s
Starting point is 00:06:41 which would be a very weird too. This feels like there may have been a misunderstanding. Something, yeah. What did you say? Did you say, you know, that's my trigger? Did you use words that rind with something wrong? What happened here? Uh-oh.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Because this has to be a misunderstanding. You know what I mean? I don't know. She said, no, I ordered the one that's bigger. I don't, that's the only thing I could think of that made this. go down like this. Olivia, one star.
Starting point is 00:07:10 I'm currently in the store. Oh, I love it when they give reviews from actually on the fucking scene. From Register 6. Yeah, from the scene of the crime. I have never seen more people move at a glacier's pace in all my life. No one knows where anything is.
Starting point is 00:07:26 That's, that again, Louisiana. You're describing a region. That whole region moves at a glacial, glaciers pace. I can't take it. Hurry up. Depends on what you ask for. Because I've asked for things in Home Depot and they've said either this aisle or this aisle.
Starting point is 00:07:44 But most of the time, they say shit like, aisle this halfway down, third shelf. What? How do you know that? Below this. You know, below the sockets. You're like, oh, okay, it's right there. Yeah. If you get to this, you've gone too far.
Starting point is 00:08:01 How did you do that? I don't know. But yeah, you can't go to any store in the South and get mad when people are slow or you will burn your brain out very fucking quickly. I remember being down there like literally running in place almost. Like my feet were going up and down like, come on, dude, please move faster. I can't take it anymore. No one knows where anything is. It would be easier for me to jump behind the counter and figure it out myself.
Starting point is 00:08:29 I should just get me a smock and a Sharpie. Fuck it. I'll figure the shit out myself. They also have a little thing in their hand that they type in what you're looking for and then it tells them where it's at in the store. That should help. Yeah. It's pretty amazing. That should be all you need, I would think, right?
Starting point is 00:08:46 Yeah. Yeah. Horrible management. Pick better people to work here. People who can physically move and actually know something about the products their employer sells. Okay. Elvin One Star. I was trying to buy this gloves.
Starting point is 00:09:02 I guess these gloves is what he's going. getting at, but store manager didn't allow me to get them. She told me the price was wrong, also with a bad attitude. She thinks she owns the store. Her name is Deborah. Her name is Deborah. I love that ending. That's great.
Starting point is 00:09:24 These places now are hiring retired people from fields that, like, a retirement. Fields that like a retired electrician, retired plumbers. The grumpiest fucking people on the face of the earth. Oh, my God. Have you ever talked to a tradesman? They're fucking miserable people. Miserable, miserable, miserable, miserable. They're all angry.
Starting point is 00:09:47 They call their child the kid. They're just fucking pissy, angry people. All of them. The retired plumber at my lows is the best. Like I was looking for a trap, like the flapper on a toilet. Oh, he doesn't have to deal with poop anymore. probably thrilled to be where he is. He throws plumbing supplies at you and goes, enjoy.
Starting point is 00:10:08 But he is so fucking good. I went to go buy a flapper and he goes, don't buy that one. It's garbage. Buy that one. And it was like, I don't know, two bucks cheaper or some shit. He's like, the cheap one of that works the best. And that saves me a world of returning shit. And it's genius level marketing.
Starting point is 00:10:27 It is. Customer service to get those guys. And by the way, the tradesman thing, we say, that because we know these guys well. Oh boy. Yeah. In our family. I worked in the trance.
Starting point is 00:10:37 And what I mean? And we're us. You know, believe me. My cousin who works HVAC is the most miserable fucking guy I've ever met. I love the guy. He's great. But he is not a happy person in general. Just miserable.
Starting point is 00:10:50 You crawl around. You fucking get on your on your belly and shimmy your way through a crawl space and tell me if you'll be happy at 5 o'clock. Fuck that. Get a raccoon out of ductwork. Yeah, exactly. So you can install something while it's, and there's no air conditioning because you're installing it. So it's 100 and fucking 12 degrees up there. Aziz one star used to be a national favorite, but now service has gone way downhill.
Starting point is 00:11:19 It's not a national favorite. It's number 12 on the Fortune 500. I think it's doing fine. Not a national favorite anymore, Jimmy, not according to Aziz. Aziz begs to differ. It's doing fine, I think. Nope, they're ready to close down. All the stores, they're ready to go.
Starting point is 00:11:36 They have a NASCAR, for Christ's sake. Everything's fine. I'd watch out. That car is going to be very shifty. They're not going to be able to donate for brakes or any of that shit anymore. It's going to watch out. It's way down there. It's going to be hot out there just running around no brakes.
Starting point is 00:11:51 The owner might have to sell his NFL team. You never know. What could happen? Running hot laps. Employees act like you're bothering them just for asking a question. rolling eyes, smacking lips, glued to their phones. One guy stood out as helpful. That's Jimmy's plumber there.
Starting point is 00:12:09 But overall, I left feeling humiliated. It's a common thing here. I understand I was a few minutes past closing. Okay, well, then that's your bad. No matter how they treated you, the store isn't open anymore. So you come in, I'll call you, all right, cock sucker, aisle five. We're not, this isn't a store anymore. Our relationship is totally different than it would have been five minutes ago,
Starting point is 00:12:31 just to let you know that. Yeah. When you see the hours on the door and you're outside of those hours, they don't have to adhere to company policy anymore. If they don't bum rush you and physically throw you out, whatever they say to you is warranted and fine. This is your bad. They're doing you a favor at this point now.
Starting point is 00:12:52 Their time now. They're not getting paid anymore. That's fucking crazy. And I appreciate them finishing the sale, but the attitude made it feel like I was begging to spend money because they were closed, dipshit. She wants to, whoever this was, they want to fucking balance out their register and get the fuck out of there. They don't want to feel with your bullshit.
Starting point is 00:13:09 You are begging to spend money at that time because they're closed. They're not taking any money anymore today. That's it. Since when did basic customer service become a burden? About 9.45. That's when it became a burden when those fucking doors closed. You fucking asshole.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Five minutes ago, when we closed. Totally. We shop, scan, and load everything ourselves. What exactly are we doing wrong just to deserve basic decency? Home Depot, do better. They don't like how they just go all self-checkout now either. That's stupid. You came in at closing time. That's what you did wrong. That's, you should lead and end with that every sentence. Now, I did come in after closing time and then at the end go, I guess I can understand that because I did come in after closing time. Everyone. Yeah. Salvador, one star. It's all, exactly. 100%.
Starting point is 00:14:00 Salvador one star. Customer service is horrible. I don't know if he means at this store or just in general. He doesn't like being serviced as a customer. I don't know. It is bad. They don't help. They are lazy and rude.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Again, Louisiana. I asked for help to get adhesive from a top shelf from three workers and none of them help. I had to get it myself. They climb the fucking shelves or what? Top shelf. Did you get the ladder thing? Adhesive. I guess he had to.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Won't be coming back to. this location. Spanky one star. My landlord ordered a refrigerator from this establishment. Establishment, really? We're going to get that formal about a Home Depot. It took a week to get it.
Starting point is 00:14:43 When it arrived, the driver couldn't drive. Ripped up part of my fence. They ran its fence over. Poor Spanky. It's not your fence. It's your landlord's fence. Yeah, that's true. He ordered it. That's his fucking problem, I guess. Then proceeded to order it from loads.
Starting point is 00:15:00 I suppose, then proceeded to place the refrigerator outside. I am a single disabled mom. I had to get it inside myself and put it together myself. How the fuck did you do that? No, you didn't. You call your landlord and say, your fridge is here. Yeah. Come get it.
Starting point is 00:15:17 How would you even do that? We got a new fridge a couple years ago. It took two huge guys to bring this fucking thing up my stairs. I was like, you guys got this. I'll give you a good tip. I don't care. I'm not doing this. I don't do that.
Starting point is 00:15:29 No, I'm not doing that shit. heavy. I hope he never orders from this place again. Lowe's is much better. I shouldn't have to hurt myself when purchasing a new appliance. No, really not. You shouldn't have to purchase it. Tabitha one star. No, you shouldn't. Very rude employees, not willing to help customers in finding what's needed. There's a theme here, I've noticed, to these reviews. Came to the store today to find paper blinds. Why would you want that? Number one. They're the temporary ones. Yeah, why? That's weird. I asked an employee who's... They're paper. They're not even fucking made of a material for Christ's sake.
Starting point is 00:16:08 They're very cheap. They're terrible. I asked an employee who was near me to please guide me to the paper blinds. He stood and looked at me for about 10 seconds while I'm standing there, mumbled something under his breath. Again, this is all Louisiana behavior. Anyway, just standing there staring for a while, then mumbling shit. Then replied, aisle eight. I searched on Isle 8 and still didn't see them. Finally, I saw another employee who was standing by them and said, they're right here. I've never been to a Home Depot that was like this one. Will not be returning.
Starting point is 00:16:42 Only got one star because it won't allow you to not give one. That's not very good. You didn't do that well at all. DA, one star, all caps. Do not shop here. Oh, the DA says so. The DA says, don't shop here. in the area to help friends rebuild and encountered the laziest, most pathetic employees.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Not only did they refuse to help, they got aggravated that you would even ask them. This happened on several employees there. Management was page numerous times but was a no-show. To make matters worse, when asked earlier if they had any specials to honor Memorial Day weekend, employee was very disrespected and responded, quote, Hell no. You can get a Memorial Day suck on these balls is what you can get, motherfucker. If you didn't get the insert, there's things that are on sale, but it doesn't honor.
Starting point is 00:17:39 There's flags around here somewhere you could buy, I'm sure. What the fuck are we selling on Memorial Day? Well, I mean, they do it for President's Day. What the hell is that? They pick any random holiday. They're like, huge sale. Yeah, but it's just, there's an insert that shows what things are on. on sale. That's fine. It's not to honor shit. No, they're honoring anything. This place is
Starting point is 00:18:00 despicable. Three exclamation points. Sydney one star. Customer service equates to Walmart. No one wants to help customers and they essentially hide from work and no one picks up the phone. In store, there was a guy working who would, all caps, not talk to my partner and I. He just nodded and shrugged. Again, where are you? You know, we thought he was deaf. until another family came up and he began speaking to them. I thought he was just playing along like, yeah, he was nodding like he gets it.
Starting point is 00:18:34 I don't know what the fuck. He signed at us and then he talked to somebody else. He was like, oh yeah, aisle seven down there. That's what you want. You're going to want to go right past the toilet seats. Right past these two cock suckers that keep asking me annoying questions. These bitches will not shut up.
Starting point is 00:18:49 I had to pretend I was deaf, you know what I mean? That didn't even shut him up. They were still talking. I wasn't even signed. at them. They're talking. Seems like they're getting it now, though. Oh, yeah. From home, I was on hold for another 40 minutes trying to see if they had something in stock, terrible store and poor representation of Home Depot. Oh, poor refs. Oh, boy. Lola, one star, the absolute worst service ever. Not worse. Worse. Worse. Very poorly managed and employees are extremely lazy and get attitude
Starting point is 00:19:21 when asking for assistance. I've reported this to store manager. on few occasions. That's the person's name, store manager. Hello, store. On few occasions. And his attitude was also very poor and not willing to correct the obvious problems that many customers are facing. That's why everybody sucks. If the manager sucks, then you go, hey, we're allowed to suck.
Starting point is 00:19:40 He sucks. Do not shop here. You will be sorry you did. Oh, man. Samuel, one star. Worst experience ever. Ever. Ever.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Never had anyone die in front of him. Never got a car accident. That's a great life you're living, Samuel, first of all. Yeah. Fucking Home Deep, anything. My children. Anything that happened at her section. And left them all back there.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Anything that happens at Home Depot should never be the worst thing that happened to you in your whole life. Never. No. The cashier was talking on the phone. Actually, in the phone is the way he puts it. He's talking in the phone. Yeah. And put me, and put me attitude to help me.
Starting point is 00:20:29 I don't know what that means. Okay. I hate when they don't proofread what they fucking press enter about. I get a misspelling, but if something doesn't make sense because the words don't make sense in that order, you fucked this up bad. I will never go back to this one. Her name tag said candy, probably the most sour one in parentheses. She's a sour patch kid. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Let's get the hell out of Home Depot. We've been frustrated enough, and I don't feel like installing shit today. Yeah, but the tents were great. Oh, it was wonderful. Loved it. Let's round up the kids here and head over to Kids Quest Children's Museum. All right. This is in 1116-108 Avenue, northeast, Bellevue, Washington.
Starting point is 00:21:19 And it is described as an interactive educational existence. It's staged indoors and outdoors plus workshops and summer camp. So here we go. This place has a 4.5 stars out of 2,000 reviews. Dang, that's great. People like the Kids Quest Children's Museum. Let's find out all about it. It looks like it's about, what is this, official site, $16.75 to get in.
Starting point is 00:21:44 So it's about what shit costs now, I guess. Jane, five stars. Great place for kids, including toddlers, which is nice because a lot of times he's kids things. It's either four toddlers or four kids who are older and never both usually. There's something for every child to enjoy with a wonderful variety of toys and creative PlayStation's. Playstations, not playstations. The story time teacher was energetic and engaging. Parking can be a bit tricky depending on the time of day. And although you can get access the whole day to the whole day, it could be tricky to come back. We'll definitely be back.
Starting point is 00:22:20 and there's pictures of her kid like playing on shit and doing things and having a general good time here. Jared five stars, we got lucky and got to pay to park nearby. Ooh, you lucky bastard, you got to pay to park? Very lucky. But not a fan of the parking. Everything was din? Dinn? Everything was din.
Starting point is 00:22:41 I don't know what that means. And the kids could have easily stayed for the day while we were passing through. Staff seemed very attentive while we were there. Okay. That's good. That's excellent. They're children, so you would have to be. Nadia, two stars.
Starting point is 00:22:56 I have mixed feelings because the facility itself is great. The activities are engaging and there's something for all kids of every age. However, my experience was very much ruined by the amount of people that were in the same place at the same time. You could have just said, crowded. Right? Is that one word? Very much ruined. Very much ruined.
Starting point is 00:23:21 But the amount of, wow, the capacity of this museum does not seem to match the amount of people being let in. The crowding results in a really poor experience, bumping into other parents. Your kids getting trampled by the bigger kids. That's trampled is a big deal. At a museum? Jesus. Yeah, what are they doing in there? The smell of other people's breaths, breaths, their individual breaths that they're taking.
Starting point is 00:23:46 Yeah. Wow, the noise level was really loud. Well, it's a kids thing, so it's going to be. And everyone seems to be desperate to get a spot to use the facility. Again, kids don't have great huge bladders either. For example, we waited so long to get into the blue truck and instead of a bunch of older kids cut in line and went straight ahead of us. We gave up and never made it inside. I actually didn't see any staff trying to provide any sort of order or coordination. Every single chair to or space to sit was taken. At some point my child needed a diaper change and the bathroom was always busy but we eventually managed to get in. The water room has vests available but none of them were hung. Who knows where they were? Again, no staff. We didn't spend more than 45 minutes overall because we started getting really overwhelmed with the crowd. It was so uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:24:42 Okay, well then. Don't like that. No. Wow. Okay. Tammy, two stars. Small compared to other children's museum I've been to. One children's museum I've been to.
Starting point is 00:24:56 So why are you at this one? Yeah, go to that one. Doesn't have a cafeteria or anything, so bring your own food and snacks. Nice to have some food service always. No place to eat, though, will need to fight for a bench space. No tables. Oh, well, no tables. There's also no signs.
Starting point is 00:25:13 about taking your shoes off before entering climbing structures, so kids run and climb with their muddy shoes on, which I find isn't sanitary. That's disgusting. Yeah, that's muddy shit everywhere. Also, no place inside to park my stroller. I had to park stroller outside and lug two kids in a diaper bag. That's annoying.
Starting point is 00:25:34 Anastasio, two stars. The museum is amazing, but management doesn't, management don't listen. and ignoring when I make correction on exhibit only put correct country. Okay, so there's a mistake in one of the exhibits apparently, and she pointed it out, and they just didn't listen. Don't care. They're like the kids are four. They don't give a shit.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Chow, one star. Our school had a field trip here. Kids had fun exploring the different play areas and enjoyed the science experiment with water and Alka-Seltzer. Look at the fizz. Science experiment. Ooh. However, the lunch planning for large groups was disappointing. On a cold, rainy day, the kids had to sit outside on the sidewalk to eat,
Starting point is 00:26:25 even though there appeared to be unused indoor space available. Once outside, the back doors were locked, making bathroom access inconvenient. While the activities were enjoyable, the lack of planning for lunch and weather conditions would make me hesitant to recommend this location for field. school or school field trips. In Bellevue, Washington,
Starting point is 00:26:44 when it's rainy and cold there, that is fucking miserable. Oh, yeah, it's going to be just dark and dingy and cold and really fucking bad. So, C.H.H. One star. My daughter went to you, went to Kids Quest Bellevue for
Starting point is 00:27:00 a class field trip, and I just learned from a parent chaperone that the staff had the children sit outside on the sidewalk to eat lunch in the cold and pouring rain. These are seven and eight-year-old kids. Oh, I was, Jesus. I was also told there was an empty room available that could have accommodated them, so I don't
Starting point is 00:27:17 understand why they weren't allowed to eat inside. On top of that, the kids were reportedly sent through the back door and told if they needed to use the bathroom, they had to walk all the way back around to the front entrance. This is the same incident. As a parent, I'm honestly shocked and disappointed by the lack of care and consideration shown toward these children. Their comfort and safety should have been a priority. Damn you.
Starting point is 00:27:39 fucking safety is they weren't unsafe they were just wet and had to hold piss in for an extra 30 seconds it's not unsafe it's just inconvenienced they might catch cold this week you can catch cold that's right that's that's the most of it right
Starting point is 00:27:56 Jonathan one star I don't understand the hype about this place we are surrounded by real nature in the Seattle area as well as real museums and instead hundreds of kids and their parents are packed in a small building with little breathing room to climb some fake rope, play some toy wood drain set you can buy on Amazon,
Starting point is 00:28:16 play with plastic apples and a tiny farm, a tiny plastic farm, and splash some tap water in a metal drain. That doesn't sound great at all. There's better ways to entertain your kids that are far more enriching and less claustrophobic and chaotic than this place, and it can be done for far cheaper too. Yeah, I guess so.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Jesus Christ. All right, let's do JD one star. For the amount of ticket, the environment does not match the standards. They have a very small play area for kids three and under in which only two children in there were three and under and teaming with older children, throwing apples and dumping toys everywhere. Yeah, they're going to ruin everything. You give them plastic apples, they're going to throw them. That's just the way it works. These were not educational items.
Starting point is 00:29:05 There were not educational items. some toy cars with magnets and art space had dried paint. The place is very unkept and not worth the cost. Unkept or unkempt or whatever it was. Unkept. That's how she put it. She's not sure about the M in there. But it seems like they call it a museum,
Starting point is 00:29:27 but it seems like like a play chit. It seems like a giant McDonald's play place. It seems like a science place where they let you do experiments and stuff but it's any science museum in the country but it's just like you've been in the
Starting point is 00:29:45 science center in Phoenix right with the kids that's like that too but there's also like stuff like they show you like presentations and like videos about science stuff and then you can like experiment with all the shit that seems a little cooler than this
Starting point is 00:29:59 this doesn't seem real great here this seems like they they show you things and then they make it a little bit interactive too but Mainly just kids climbing and shit. Basically, yeah. Yeah. Derek one star.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Absolute crap service. Okay. Changed the rules for partner science centers without notice. Remove the ability to book ahead for partner science centers. Didn't inform in line before waiting over 30 minutes that they would not honor the partner cards. Then want to charge extra. So apparently there's a group of these museums that they're saying. saying that you get one, you should be in all of them.
Starting point is 00:30:38 If you don't want to participate in reciprocal science center program memberships, then don't. You had the ability to allow for a smooth process, given we have four memberships, but decided to screw the customer and disappoint kids. Pretty shameful decision-making had been a great place to visit until they decided they want to treat the visitor like a cash machine and hide behind our policy changed. Jesus Christ Screw them I love when I really feel screwed It's so fun
Starting point is 00:31:12 Screwed And this is my second favorite thing Besides being screwed One star Worst experience ever Ever All of my kids were stolen They climbed into one of these ball things
Starting point is 00:31:23 And they were taken and sold Into a Bangladeshi whorehouse That's what we did That would be the worst Experience ever Besides that I think you're pushing it Calane Maxwell smacked my wife on the ass as she took my kids.
Starting point is 00:31:36 As she took my kids and said, ever been on a plane? You're about to see the Virgin Islands. Oh, God. Ever been to New Mexico? Oh, you're going to love it. I was supposed to have my son's birthday party here in November. Spoke with someone yesterday about all of the availability on a Friday night. I relied on that information and bought favors and invitation.
Starting point is 00:32:02 I received a phone call today saying the museum has decided to no longer host birthday parties. Not even the ones they have attracted. Probably. They claim that this is to make the museum more accessible to the poor who can't afford a party. However, for over $1,200, you can still rent out the entire museum for two hours to let you do that. And for $2,700 for four hours. Beware, the poor can get in for free. the rich can rent out the entire museum,
Starting point is 00:32:34 but the middle class could no longer have birthday parties. You're blaming poor people. At the Bellevue Children's Museum. Stop with the rich or doing it. Then stop if you're middle class because the people you're talking about would kill to bitch about the things you're bitching about
Starting point is 00:32:51 as they're worried about their fucking electric bill. What are you talking about? God damn it. Can no longer have birthday parties at the Bellevue Children's. Children's Museum. When I explained that I had bought favors and invitations, they said they were sorry that their policy change was negatively, negatively affecting my family and offered no solutions or remedies. What solution is there? Have it somewhere else? That's the solution. Worst experience ever. It started and ended with that. Wow. That's some shit there. Okay. Let's find out from Sevick. Okay, one star. For the kids only was four. fun, the packaging room, nothing else interesting in, he puts commas in fucking crazy places.
Starting point is 00:33:38 What's that about? Yeah. For the kids only, fun the packaging room, comma. Nothing else interesting in, comma, and all the activities are for the kids. I don't know why I'm paying for myself and my wife. That's ridiculous. Either you need to raise the price and charge for the kids only or sell the business to someone who can handle it.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Sell it. sell it off. You can't handle it. By the way, no periods, all commas in that. And we still don't have a period who can handle it, comma. I didn't see anything else, or I didn't see anything what the parents, what the parents, okay? I didn't see anything what the parents can involve to explain the kids what to do, comma. So don't iron my brain. Iron.
Starting point is 00:34:28 I-R-O-N, iron. Don't iron my brain is a fucking sentence this person said and then a comma. Okay. Wow. Don't iron my brain, comma. How about the dusty air, comma? What would you say about it, comma? Not question mark comma.
Starting point is 00:34:47 I know what's that. I know what's that. The construction is going right next room with no covers and isolation, comma. it's why i guess that's what w h i d l y that's widely that's what whidly that's widely that's widely open and you can see it from obby air circulation that's that's that's widely that's widely that's what he's going for widely this is amazing this hurts my fucking brain dude this is hard they're ironing my brain i need to iron my brain when i'm done with this i'm so fucking Wow
Starting point is 00:35:29 After Wow Air circulation was very poorly So it was hard Are you poorly doc? Are you poorly You poorly doc? I love that in fucking deadwood
Starting point is 00:35:41 To breathe Actually hard to breathe He doesn't say breathe He says breath So it was hard to breath After an hour You are getting tired Because of no air
Starting point is 00:35:53 I didn't want I didn't want to go to I didn't want to go so deep, but once you're making these excuses, you deserved it. Whoever go there, please on the first floor, turn left hallway and take a picture of the construction room so everyone will see it. I forgot to take a picture. If you need an experience, go to Seattle Historical Center. We'll see how the parents are involved.
Starting point is 00:36:18 Wow. That period at the end is the only period in that entire shit. It's all commas. I can't believe he's spelled widely like. that. Widenly. That is wildly crazy. Widencies. Wildly. Incorrect. Wow.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Response from the owner, both children and adults pay admission because the museum is meant to be experienced as a family with everyone playing and learning together. As a nonprofit, KidsQuest relies on daily admission, memberships, and community donations to keep our exhibits and programs
Starting point is 00:36:50 running. This isn't like a, they didn't do an IPO of this. This isn't a fucking corporate thing. It's a nonprofit kids museum. What are you talking about? Have you been to Disneyland? Yeah. You had to pay admission to that too.
Starting point is 00:37:04 It's for your kids. No shit. No shit. Admission fees cover less than a quarter of our operating costs and we strive to keep pricing fair while ensuring access for all families. Human, one star. My kid got pink eye after his first visit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:21 He's touching all sorts of shit. Water must be filthy or untreated because that was the only. only that was the only he hanged out. The water is the only place he hanged out, hanged out, I guess. Do not recommend and won't come back ever. Wow. And they say, response from the owner, we're sorry to hear your child became ill
Starting point is 00:37:41 and understand how concerning that can be. Pink eye typically takes 12 hours to 12 days to develop and isn't transmitted through bromine treated water, which is what we use in our exhibits. However, bromine may irritate symptoms if the virus or bacteria is, already present. In other words, what you did is you brought your filthy little pink eye riddled fucking
Starting point is 00:38:01 shit bag in here and then the water reacted with his already diseased eyes. Also, we run a science museum and we are doctors in, trained in pink eye. And we know all of these things about pink eye. We know it all, man. All right. So let's leave there. Okay. Let's leave the Children's Museum.
Starting point is 00:38:26 There's some more complaining about it, but it's mainly about the parking and the fact that it's cold outside. So I can't really help that. Those are unhelpable. This is our parking lot. That's the weather. I don't know what the fuck to tell you. What you do you want me to do? Did you get pink guy?
Starting point is 00:38:41 That guy did. I got pink guy. Let's go somewhere else where maybe the kids will have fun. I feel like the kids are disappointed. Let's go to Union Point Park. A nice park it looks like here. This is green space with a nautical themed playground and walking past. overlooking Alameda Harbor.
Starting point is 00:38:59 This address is 2311 Embarcadero in Oakland, California. Oh, yeah. Embarcadero is beautiful. That's Embarcadero San Francisco you're thinking of. Oh, right. Yeah, this is in Oakland, which anything that's a big bridge to cross, boy. Everything changes real quick. Don't have a barcadero over here.
Starting point is 00:39:23 No, any Oakland version of anything San Francisco has. is just going to be much worse, basically. Don't you happen this embarked, Darrow. Things bark over here. Sports teams running away, fleeing as fast as they can. People rather play in Sacramento. Yeah, and they go away again. So let's find out what people think.
Starting point is 00:39:45 3.5 stars at a 380 reviews. Let's find out what we got going on here. Alvin, five stars. Very nice little spot if you want some peace and quiet during sunset. Not much people come around these spots Since there's a lot of trash laying around But that's romantic to this guy Alvin is yeah
Starting point is 00:40:05 But if you can get over that This place is pretty cool If you like living amongst refuse This place is great Don't worry about it Liz, five stars Five stars by the way I like that the sinks at the bathroom
Starting point is 00:40:21 Are broken underneath Five stars I like that. But broken underneath in a way that you can easily refill water bottles or spray your shoes off with high-pressure jet, given you aim the right way. Ghetto fabulous. Is this person homeless? I don't know. It doesn't look like it by our pictures, but basically it's...
Starting point is 00:40:47 This is where I like to wash. Yeah. It's broken well. It's broken right. This place is amazing because I like to wash my shoes here. I can wash all my shoes off with a high pressure jet. Rudy, five stars. This place is entrenched with full-time tenants and is kind of trashed.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Again, five stars, by the way. But if that keeps people away, more for me. Yeah. You know, yeah. Cool place to hang out and chill by the water. Spend as much time here as you like. We don't need your permission, Rudy. It's a park.
Starting point is 00:41:22 We can all go as much as we like. hell, move here if you want. The city of Oakland obviously doesn't mind because a lot of homeless people live there. Mason, three stars. This park would be amazing if they got rid of the encampments. Would rate it a zero out of five, but I can see the potential.
Starting point is 00:41:42 It's a little different than we normally have. What? Okay, playground. Encampment makes this playground a no till change happens. Would otherwise be amazing, nautically themed playground, I would love to bring my friends,
Starting point is 00:41:56 kids, or nieces, and nephews every time they visit. And then picnic area, serviceable, as long as an unhoused person isn't screaming. Oh, there's a specific guy here, and I love this. Because if you went here all the time,
Starting point is 00:42:12 you'd start naming people. Yeah. You know, and this guy. They have Popeye. There's an individual that sounds like Popeye that spends hours screaming, screaming daily just like, like, go, go, over and over again. And eating spinach from a can, it's disturbing.
Starting point is 00:42:29 Blow me down. Blow me down. He also has sex with this really skinny cracked out broad we call olive oil. He's got a weird fucked-off long nose. Real weird. But it's always carrying his baby. It's even more like, why are you bringing a baby here, bitch? What's going on?
Starting point is 00:42:48 With the correct security, this is a great area. Okay. I like this. Uber time, two stars, quote, I don't remember. Oh, forgot. Just don't remember. Two stars. I don't know. This person posted these pictures. I remember anything from last night. Remember? Remember? Pedro, two stars, no review, just pictures. And you really don't need a review, because these pictures are worth a million words each. This guy has a lot of reviews to 138. He has pictures. of the toilets, which are, if you were in a Haitian prison, you would expect the toilet. You'd go, this is bad for a Haitian prison. Like a really bad prison, too. Like, we're like just child rapists sent there and only child rapists. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:37 First picture is a toilet bowl pretty much three quarters full with brown chunky water. Oh, I wonder what that is. The second one, and there's a McDonald's drink cup on the floor in front of it, a large. It would appear to be. The next one is the craziest thing I've ever seen. It's a toilet bowl three quarters of the way full. I don't see any liquid. Just looks like shit.
Starting point is 00:44:04 Just solids. If you made the earth from shit and you just, that's what happened. And they put it in the bowl. Only solids. Only solids. And then on the bowl is so much shit on the toilet seat. It's covered in liquid shit. I mean, covered in it.
Starting point is 00:44:21 covered. I'd say I will post it on social media, but this is too gross to post on social media. Okay. The next one. Next toilet. He found another toilet. Two more toilets. The next one is clearly full of shit because someone has placed, I don't know, 700 pieces of toilet paper over it making a toilet paper canopy that goes down.
Starting point is 00:44:50 that goes down into it and there's a nice big pile of shit in the middle of that. So it's picture of just a white thing laid over top of something with a nice pile of shit right in the middle of it.
Starting point is 00:45:03 With like an emoji style perfect shit on it? It's wonderfully. It's a little curl on top. It looks like a dairy queen cone. You got to have the dairy queen fucking curl. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:45:17 That's what it looks like. Then the next. one is a picture that is filled 80% of the way with what I think is shit and possibly some socks in there. I'm not sure. They ran out the paper. They ran out of everything. And there is a backpack next to it with the strap of the backpack in the toilet around the seat. No.
Starting point is 00:45:45 And there's also an empty Amazon box upside down. Sitting there as well, too, with prime tape and all that shit on it. So those are the bathrooms. Wow. Pictures are better because you can't describe that in words. No one will believe you. That sounds crazy. How do you justify that being so?
Starting point is 00:46:09 Yeah. Yeah, I don't know how you justify the park not being cleaned. I also don't know how you would justify shitting there is the other thing. I guess if you're homeless, you shit there. you got nowhere else to shit, but wow. James, two stars. Union Point Park is a dump.
Starting point is 00:46:26 It's a place where homeless people and drug addicts hang out. Be careful to lock your car and don't leave anything of value in it. I only go here to meet a boat I work on. It's to meet the boat. It's right by the Embarcadero. Yeah, it's right there.
Starting point is 00:46:42 Then there's just pictures of garbage that he's shown. Looks like, I don't even know what that is. It looks like a tire with a cushion on it. I don't know. I don't know how to describe it. It's just a shitload of garbage. Then there's like a van with like an encampment thing.
Starting point is 00:46:55 Like they made the van part of like their experience. Oh my God. There's like a tent connecting to the open door of a minivan type thing. The sliding thing on the side. It looks like some sort of living in your car situation. It's a house. Yeah. It's a house.
Starting point is 00:47:12 Yeah, it sucks. Robson, one star. It used to be a really great place to have birthday parties and barbecue Q fish. It's very specific. Nothing else. Just fish. Now it's overrun by...
Starting point is 00:47:25 Oh, I guess it's because it's by the port. So, yeah, there's fish there's there. That makes sense. Yeah. Now it is overrun by drug addicts and bumbas. Bumbus. Bums with the silent B. Bums. Bums.
Starting point is 00:47:41 Leaving used rubbers and needles garbage everywhere. Police don't do anything. They have taken advantage of this really nice. place. Ingrid, one star. When the park was newly redone, it was beautiful. Well maintained, right on the water. We came all the time with our young children.
Starting point is 00:47:59 It's now sadly dilapidated. It's overgrown. There's graffiti and there's folks living in tents in the park and vans and RVs in the lots. Glass everywhere. It's sketchy now. Michaela, one star. This isn't even really a park anymore. It's more along the lines that people can park
Starting point is 00:48:19 their cars here and sleep if you're homeless or if you're a traveler. Jesus. Yeah. That's what the park means. That's a park. It's a park. It's a park. That's great.
Starting point is 00:48:29 And if you own a boat at this location, but other than that, it's a great place to take a walk with your dogs. However, there's a lot of homeless people at this park with dogs that tend to be off leashes, so be careful. Yeah. Yeah. Restrooms. There are restrooms here, but they are disgusting.
Starting point is 00:48:47 It's really meant for guys to go pearsches. because they stand. I wouldn't recommend a woman peeing in the bathroom or children. You're going to have to hover, my lady. It's a place for guys to pee on poop. They can shit on top of more shit, which is wonderful.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Sylvana, one star. It could be such a great place, but it's overrun by the homeless and gangs. Well, which one? Because usually they don't hang out together. No. And dogs off leash. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:19 Looks like it's pretty new and a cool structure, but it's now dirty, smelly, full of gang tags on the wall and Bums everywhere. Pretty sad. I definitely would never take my daughter there. She's usually less popular without the B spelling, by the way, of Bum. I wouldn't take my daughter there. Wouldn't take my daughter there. Are little girls bait here? What are they? Well, yeah, they'll get taken right away and they'll get lost in the shit piles in the bathroom. Can't take them if they're too small. most chops gives one star so very Oakland oh Jesus Christ good Lord they're getting into bond measures and all this shit I don't even want to talk about this what but what is the point if there's no commitment to maintain it and enforced use rules that preserve it as a park for all and not a rundown urban camping site if the later not the latter if the later is all Oakland's willing to to deal, then the site should but have been paved over, bathrooms installed, and regular trash pickup provided, and enforced, would have saved a fortune and created a better space for the underhoused. Okay.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Here is 946, one star. The park, two parking areas at either end, a professarian, not pedestrian, a pedestrian path along the water, a set of restroom facilities, landscaping, and a structure which resembling, which resemble a pair of mounds connected by a bridge. The place is usually occupied by multiple transients who sleep in tents or the derelict vehicles. Garbage and other debris accumulates here faster than the city can remove it, but park is open during daylight hours and camping is prohibited. In the past year, the number of transients in the park has decreased and there are fewer RV-type vehicles.
Starting point is 00:51:15 Cars are often brought here to be stripped of parts. Oh, my God. to work on. Shop parking lot. I do not recommend this park for children or vulnerable adults. Rugged individuals or groups may enjoy the view of the water or the nearby Coast Guard station. There's free parking if you acknowledge the risk. So rugged individuals or strengthen numbers, really.
Starting point is 00:51:41 You and your badass friends with switchplates. Come on down. Yeah, you and the rest of the greasers, come on in. It's going to be a rumble in the park. parking lot. Whoever wins gets that fucking 91 Toyota Tercell to strip the parts off of. The one that's sitting on the center block. We're going blades and chains, but no pieces, man.
Starting point is 00:52:05 They stripped it so heavy. It's down to raw metal. They took the paint. That paint sells on the aftermarket. I mean, that's what happens. Nogina, one star. Used to be lovely when it was first built. Now it's been overtaken by the homeless
Starting point is 00:52:22 and is extremely dirty and stinky and unsafe. Needles and trash everywhere. It's a shame because seven years ago or so, it was my favorite park in Oakland. Oh. Hannah, one star. I attempted to bring the kids that I watch here, and it was a disaster.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Garbage literally on every surface, tense, mobile homes filled with trash, random dogs and sketchy-looking people. It was a truly terrifying sight. even in the daylight. It sounds, it literally sounds like, like, what you picture Haiti or like a really terrible town in Mexico. Remember the beginning of Scarface?
Starting point is 00:53:00 Yeah. The thing they put Al Pacino in there, the tent camp, that's what this sounds like. It sounds like a refugee, not even a refugee, a dumping spot for another country's criminals or something. Fucking Laredo, Texas or something. Wow. Scott, one star. Filthy, disgusting pit from hell.
Starting point is 00:53:23 Tell us how you really feel, Scott. Don't hold back, Scott, really. Fire away. We're not from hell, too. Yeah. Overrun with garbage and homeless encampments. A female military officer was abducted and raped while walking through this part.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Okay. Oh, my God. Is that true? I don't know. This is from nine years ago, so I mean, maybe. Oh, okay. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:46 She's, it's all right. As long as it was from a decade ago, it's fine. She's okay. Do not, under any circumstances, park or walk through this park after dusk. If you park here at any time, it's likely your car will be broken into. Okay. Now, after seeing all those strangers excrements all around bathrooms and toilets piled high, I'm starving. I don't know about you.
Starting point is 00:54:11 I could use a bite. Let's head out for some food. to the Hardee's over in Benton, Arkansas. Oh, yeah. These are incredibly popular. Oh, very popular in the South. Yeah. Carl's Jr. in the West, you might know them as, which are way less popular.
Starting point is 00:54:35 Yeah, they have that same star. We've talked about this before. That same, yeah, Hardee's, Carl's Jr., it's all the same shit. All right. I think Rallies is involved in that, too, if I'm not mistaken. and I think they're part of the family as well. Not sure. So 1221 West South Street in Benton, Arkansas.
Starting point is 00:54:57 This is fast food chains serving fried chicken and big burgers in case you were wondering what Hardy's is. Big fucking burgers. Big burgers. Three point five stars out of a thousand reviews. Not good for fast food. You should be able to do better than that. here is Rattle 5 stars.
Starting point is 00:55:16 Normally when I go here it sucks. Oh. So I came back. So here I am. It's slow, small, and awful food. But today when I went in, why do you keep going here? Why are you here? I love to kick my own ass.
Starting point is 00:55:32 Wow. But today when I went in, it was fast and good. And I say it's because of Daywin, if I spelled that right, He was ready to give me my food and drink and take my order with a smile. Something I rarely ever see at this, Hardee's. Daywin has that place running smooth. This person loves this food so much that they'll put up with shit service. And food.
Starting point is 00:55:58 If it's good one out of five times, it's worth it because it was so good. Jennifer five stars, our favorite fast food breakfast. Loaded omelet biscuit is delicious. What do you think the stats on that thing is? Let's be honest. Loaded omelet biscuit. So omelet right away is a bunch of eggs. There's going to be cheese on there.
Starting point is 00:56:21 You know, there's cheese. Loaded gives me the impression that there's bacon and sausage and whatever else they could squeeze from a pig and throw onto a fucking bun. Yeah. And then they're putting it in a sodium overload biscuit. Biscuit, sugar and everything. So it's a biscuit, so that's heavy too. What is that you think?
Starting point is 00:56:41 1,100 calories probably. It's like for a breakfast sandwich. If you're lucky, look up a loaded omelet biscuit at Hardee's. Yes, I do want to know. What is the nutritional information? Fat count. Salt. Sodium, fat, all of it.
Starting point is 00:56:57 Loaded omelet biscuit. Hardies. Nutritional information. I don't know how to spell this. Biscuit. Pardies. Oh, it's right there. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:57:12 How many fucking calories is this? It doesn't even, it doesn't even. James, it's two layers. It's, it's a fucking, it's a fucking omelet that they fold in half and then jam that fucker between nutrition. What is it? It is 1,600 calories. Oh, my God. It's not even a whole breakfast.
Starting point is 00:57:38 It's one sandwich. Holy fuck. Rise and shine. What about fat? In a big way. What about fat and salt? What's the sodium? It says 830 to 1640 calories.
Starting point is 00:57:53 So there may be a double order that you can do. You know what I mean? Oh. Like double stuffed or something. But either way. It literally will not show me. It says we're embarrassed. Just come in and stop by.
Starting point is 00:58:07 It just says calories. That's it. Just eat our shame biscuit. It's fine. Just eat it. Calories from fat, 370. That's too much from fat. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:20 Jesus. Okay, here we go. 41 grams of fat. Jesus. Wow. 16 grams of saturated fat. 80% of your daily... Dude.
Starting point is 00:58:33 It's 80% of your calories, too. So you eat this, it's like, well, That's all your food for it. No more salt or calories for you. Holy shit. 230 milligrams of cholesterol, 1,180 milligrams of sodium. Dude,
Starting point is 00:58:50 don't eat this. Nobody eat this. This is horrifying. James has two grams of fiber. If you're looking for fiber. Oh, that's good anyway. Some whole grain in there too. Almost 20 grams of protein.
Starting point is 00:59:05 Why are there four? grams of sugar in this. Why? Jesus. I think that's the biscuit. It's got to be the biscuit. It's got to be the biscuit. Why is it sweet too?
Starting point is 00:59:15 How is it this salty and this sweet? Then this person says, I marked a star off. They gave it five stars. They didn't mark a star off. I marked a star off because they didn't give us any napkins, which you'll need with that loaded omwood fucking biscuit. You bet. You're going to shit your pants.
Starting point is 00:59:32 Wow. And they added ice to the drink, even though we ordered no ice. So, Tanya, Tanya won two stars. There were only two employees. One seemed to be drugged. Okay, so this is fun. It's an algebra problem. Believe me, he did it to himself.
Starting point is 00:59:52 Yeah, yeah. No one drugged him. He drugged himself. They kept getting the water wrong, not the right drinks, not marking the drinks, so we knew what was what. Even with the drink I could identify, it was clear the carbonation was off. The burgers were a sad version of what we usually see at Hardee's and had hardly any sauce. The fries were cold. And they forgot one of our burgers.
Starting point is 01:00:14 I don't live in Benton's. Well, that's not a meal at all. Yeah, it's all fucked up. I don't live in Benton, so maybe it's better at other hours. But if I were the franchise operator, I'd be paying more attention to standards and employees. Well, yes, sir. Cheryl, two stars, placed order. everyone went to bathroom
Starting point is 01:00:32 leaving one girl to take orders and make shakes even the cook went to the bathroom why is everyone need to go to the bathroom right now hey Tiffany on register
Starting point is 01:00:42 go ahead and cover the store we all got a shit we're gonna have a bathroom orgy we'll see you about 10 minutes I'm pretty quick wow when help finally came back manager was rude
Starting point is 01:00:55 when the girl said she needed shakes made she basically told her to make them herself and if she went to get orders from the drive-thru, while I and another continued to wait for our shakes and meals, very unprofessional. Very. Two stars from Michael. Worst customer service ever, ever.
Starting point is 01:01:15 Customers? Customer service, customer. He got it right. I love Hardee's, but this place is the worst. I blame management. Who else are you going to fucking blame? Who are you going to blame? That's who hired them, yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:29 I don't know who else to blame. No one here acts like they know what they're doing. Wrong there, by the way. No, that doesn't matter, but it's just fun for me. It looks like a bunch of actors, A-C-T-E-R-S, actors. It looks like a bunch of actors doing improv, not doing doing do an improv of what a fast food place isn't supposed to be. Like you say, give us a situation. poorly managed fast food restaurant.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Go. And they're like, all right, here we go. No sauce on that? Oh, it's covered in it. Most fast food restaurants do the no butt. You know what I mean? It's not a yes-and. It's the no-but.
Starting point is 01:02:12 Yeah, they're a yes-anding, yeah. I'd rather drive 35 miles to eat at other Hardys than eat here. Yeah, I guess so. Why, there's nothing to eat. It's just improv. Rudy, two stars. I'd like a double cheeseburger with no pickles, please. No, but I will give you a single with extra pickles.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Extra pickles. Now, you can take the pickles off and order two singles if you'd like, but otherwise I can't help you. Ruby, two stars, horrible service. They messed up my order not once, but twice. Twice. Took almost a half hour just for them to get my order right. Seemed like the cashier was under the influence of something. Didn't seem to be all there.
Starting point is 01:02:53 He was drunk. Let me ask everybody out there. Just a quick question. If you worked at a Hardee's in Benton, Arkansas, would there be a limit to the amount of drugs that you would try to get in your system before you took that shift? I would play a game every day to see how high I could get and still get my job done. Yeah, I'd call it fucking heroin roulette and I'd just do whatever. Fuck, man. Let's see how high I get and not get fired today.
Starting point is 01:03:25 Yeah. Am I snorting, shooting or smoking? Here we go. Roll the dice. Hey, looks like I'm shooting today. I'm going to be feeling real good, real quick. Like that guy on TikTok that does roll for sandwich. He rolls for how he's going to ingest it, rolls for the drug, and then rolls for the boost. Yes, exactly. I'm shooting marijuana today and taking an overdose of aspirin. Well, this is what it says. This is what it has to be done. The dice never liked. That's how I got to try.
Starting point is 01:03:57 I got to figure it out. Oh, man. Flaco, one star. Lady that rung up my order was really nice, but I waited 15 minutes for a hot ham and cheese. Ugh. And a large curly fry. My ham and cheese was not hot. The cheese didn't melt.
Starting point is 01:04:17 It's cold as fuck. That's gross. That's disgusting. So you just got a ham and cheese sandwich then. That's fine. Yeah, good. Go to fucking Jersey mics if you want that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:27 People eat that all the time. The fries were not filled up like they should have been. Got short fried on there. Two crew members acted like they were about to fight while making my order. Now that's just free entertainment. I love that. I love when people getting fights at work when I'm there. Yeah, go ahead.
Starting point is 01:04:44 Yeah, it's because the fry guy fucked the front counter girl. It's fucking awesome. And the drive-through guy's not having it. Yeah. Or if you're at a regular restaurant, it's just kitchen workers. They just are just. Angry. No one had to do anything.
Starting point is 01:04:57 They just had to be themselves. I love Hardy's so much, and it kills me that every single one I've been to in the central Lil Rock area that I've been to in central Lil Rock area lets me down on something. How do you mess up a hot ham and cheese? If they don't want to work there, they can go bum change off the ramp right outside. Wow. You're angry. You're angry, man. Whoa, that's a long one here.
Starting point is 01:05:27 We'll give one more here. Okay. This will be it. Amanda, one star. We were traveling through coming from Fort Smith area on our way to Shreveport. Okay, don't care about that. Stop putting that in your reviews. No one cares where you came from.
Starting point is 01:05:40 And got here at 7.54 p.m. That's specific. The door says they close at 10. We went in. Everything was packed up like they were closed. So he asked them if they were open. we could eat in. There was an employee sitting at a booth in the corner and a guy charging his cell phone sitting at a table, but no one else was in there. What the fuck? Where are you?
Starting point is 01:06:04 What is it happening? Bent in Arkansas. God, yeah. The employee looked at us and told us she guessed we could dine in, quote, if you have to. That's your car broke down? What's the matter? I mean, yeah. Then she said, if you eat here, though, this is a quote, you better not make a mess because We're not clean in this lobby again. So is that you're responsible for your own shit here? Arkansas, man. Wow. Holy shit.
Starting point is 01:06:33 I already did my closing. So if you eat, clean up after yourself. Shocking their 48th in education. Isn't it? This is crazy. I would have never thought that. Two hours ahead of closing. I already cleaned.
Starting point is 01:06:46 I mean, I guess it's already clean. Yeah. That's like there's somebody coming in in the morning going, can I dine in? They're going, well, we cleaned last night, but if you must eat here. If you must, fuck the whole thing up. I guess you could befoul our dining room, sure. We just cleaned last night.
Starting point is 01:07:03 We just clean last night. Then I like what they say. I would understand if they were about to close, but if they're open another two hours, and the lobby wasn't even clean. Like, it was still dirty. It still looks like shit in here. The booths had greasy stuff smeared on the seats, and there was trash under a few of the tables.
Starting point is 01:07:22 The drink machines were shut off, so they had to turn them on so we could get sodas or refills. What? What is it? They just shut down for the night, everybody. What is it? 706. Let's go. Wow.
Starting point is 01:07:34 They closed two hours early and crossed their fingers. Nobody showed up. Nobody showed up. Wow. The burgers were phenomenal. Or we ordered and got our food fairly quickly. The burgers were phenomenal, although they gave me two top buns instead of a top and bottom. Had to be something wrong with it, right?
Starting point is 01:07:58 The burgers were prepared freshly and were hot and fresh. The fries were hot, but somewhat soggy and limp, but tasted great. We had three large fries, and the employees would only give us four packs of ketchup. What? That's all we're giving you. We're not a lot of shit. We don't even have bottom buns. We ain't got bottom buns right now, motherfucker.
Starting point is 01:08:17 If the employees weren't rude, this would have been a five. Star Meal. Okay. We'll leave it there. God damn it. That was so much fun. That was fucking amazing. So we're going to leave it there, and we will get back to Arkansas and the Hardee's on next week's episode, for sure.
