At work today we only had one happy meal toy, Princess Fiona from Shrek.
Here's some conversations I had with customers while working:
(I hand the happy meal toy to the customer...)
Customer: "Do you have anything else?"
Me: "No, sorry, thats the only one we have until tomorrow, sorry."
Customer: "So, you have no others? My son already has this one."
Me: "Yeah, thats all we have until tomorrow, sorry. If you wanna leave it in the plastic, you can swap it elsewhere, or bring it back tomorrow and we'll swap it over for you."
Customer: "But don't you have any other toys?"
Me: "No, that is the only one we have."
Customer: "We already have this one. There aren't any other toys?"
You RETARD!! We have NO OTHER TOYS!!!
That one happened about 10 times, minimum. If your kid already has that one, maybe stop taking them to bloody maccas more than once a week!
Another one....
Customer: "Which toys do you have today?"
Me: "At the moment we only have Princess Fiona."
Customer: "You don't have Shrek?"
Me: "No, sorry, not until tomorrow."
Customer: "But West Lakes has Shrek."
Me (getting impatient as its the middle of Thursday night shopping dinner rush...): "Yeah, sorry, we don't have any new toys until tomorrow. If you want to take this one now, you can swap it tomorrow, if you like..."
Customer: "Do you know what stores do have other toys?"
Me: "er....[I name some close by stores] might, but I'm really not sure."
Customer: "Could you find out?"
Me: "Erm, [looking out at the sea of people waiting to order not-so-subtley to hint that there is no time for this..] we're quite busy at the moment..."
Customer: "Maybe you could call some other stores to find out which ones have any others..."
How bout no!!
Another lady ordered a happy meal, I gave her the toy, went through the first scenario again, and her son said "Mum, I want the Princess", and the Mum said: "No, thats for girls."
Son: "Yeah, but I don't care."
Mum: "No!! You can't have it. You're a BOY! That toy is a girl, for girls."
Son: "Please Mum."
Mum (to me): "So you have nothing else?"
Bloody hell just give the kid the princess.
One of these scenarios happened with 2 out of every 3 customers. Arrrrrgh!!! Just take the damn toy or leave it!!

We have cupboards full of these toys. Maccas is such a waste of money any way that there is nothing more annoying than going to buy in order to get the next in the series and finding that you are about to get your fifth one of a stupid Lion King or (in this case) the Princess Fiona.
You can't win can you?
