After a two hour bike ride through Tynehead,

Me ask again for the manager.
Me ask again for the manager.
Politely. Quietly. Patiently.

Politely. Quietly. Patiently.
He looks bluntly at me and said yes you do that. And asks me to go. Shoo.

He say no. You go.
We talk policy, humanity and me beg saying my wife and me hungry, please,
He say you go, you go or I call the cops.
I say injustice this?
Because me look homeless,

What about customers who can't use the mobile app? This is no McDonald policy?
me get food at the drive thru at the McDonalds five blocks down,

Me promise my wife that I get her a burger.
We love finger looking good burgers.
He come back threatening me again police come and video tape you, you go you go,
He call the cop.
The cop come.
Me walk with the cop to the corner.
I break down.
I say they see me first and say they don't serve people like me?

Cop say,
#SurreyRCMP
10-4 10-4.
I say me legit.
Here me details. don't sweat it,
Sorry I say pointing at the sign on the door,
Me get emotional when it comes to injustice.
Cop say. Company policy is company policy.
You leave.
I say me leave. me leave..
thinking and mumbling quietly
if the law can't do anything..
Me already looking homeless
Me just going to be more helpless.
But what about homeless homeless?
Me think,
me really think about that
seriously chicken burger with no bacon.
As I walk back home, my wife now in our car in search of me, see me and pick me up.
We now drive through the McDonalds drive thru not looking homeless anymore.
He say yo homie what's up.
Big smile big smile.
I say yo no homie.
You judge. You insult me.?
You know you win.
You know Karma?
He understands what I mean.
I say one day your son will go through the same. That time you realize me words.
And then I think to myself,
damn how many tips I have given these servers?
I go on yelp to post complain, and then looks like me not alone.
This location's management and employees have been known to consistently have poor customer service standards.
A retraining of the staff on company policy on who looks homeless and who does not look homeless should be given in me opinion.
Me swing by next day.
Still looking homeless. Maybe little less homeless.
Me See two gentlemen struggling to order coffee on the app.
I say
yo me got this.
Me got phone. Me got mobile app. Me got battery. Me got money. Me still look homeless ish ?
Manger Chris come, with order
big smile big smile.
Me say smile for the camera.
And oh you messed up my order,
yes sure, you can still keep the tip.
You just work here for hourly Chris, the manager.
I live here, for yearly!
