Last week, on two ocassions, I stopped at a McDs that's not on my usual route. When they handed me my drink thru the drivethru window, I noticed that the level of the soda was about 3/4" to 1" lower than the rim. The second time it happened, I handed it back and asked it to be FILLED. I was told that filling the cups is now all automatic and the staff can't add anything. Okay, won't go back there again.
Went to my usual McDs this morning. They just refurbished the drink station at the drivethru window. Guess what? The drink level was considerably lower than the usual almost-to-the-top that used to be dispensed before the re-do.
Has anyone else encountered this? If the level was only a little bit less, I wouldn't complain (or probably notice). But, considering all the soda that is now not being dispensed, that adds up to a pretty penny. Guess it's just one more example of downsizing, pardon the pun, we have to swallow!
