Title: DQ at again!
Post by: Khushrenada on January 05, 2015, 03:52:16 PM
Having once already commented on problomatic Dairy Queen advertising (https://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=45621.0), I suppose it's only right for me to continue to work on this story I've started by brining you the latest update of erroneous messaging.
I went to this Dairy Queen at lunch time and picked up a meal for my friend and I. He had a Bacon Double Cheeseburger. I had the Flamethrower grill burger which is an awesome blend of cheese and beef with a kick of heat. When I got back to the office, I gave him the box marked Bacon Cheese and took the box Flamethrower. However, inside my box was a bacon cheeseburger. I checked with him and he had the flamethrower burger in his box. Considering their advertising, I guess I shouldn't be too surprised they mislabelled which box was..... witch. Ha ha ha.

Is your DQ as ghetto looking at the one in my area?
it's outdoor only w/ 2 picnic tables in front and 2 more on the side. a block away is a Fosters Freeze with a micro indoor area.
Together they complement the ghetto ass street they are both located on, which is topped off with a Weinerschnitzel another block away.
Not to knock on any of their food, but the appearance of all 3 just scream "KEEP DRIVING...."

It's not that ghetto. There's a couple I can think of that look far worse. It just looks worse in the picture since my car window and the DQ window were both dirty/dusty. The one by my home is pretty brand new so it looks great. This one just looks a couple years older than the one by my home. I find that DQ's have those two looks. They either look pretty new or ghetto sketchy old. There doesn't seem to be much in between to them.

The ones near the beach are really old but well maintained. There is something nostalgic about them.

The one in my town is awful. It takes 10 minutes to get a blizzard. The people are either rude or behave like they have development issues. They are always hiring and I can see why. I stopped going there after they refused a coupon. There was one gal who at least tried to make the team work well but I think she got smart and took off. The two stores south of town and the one north are a lot better with friendlier people, faster service, and better tasting food. DQ is the chain that seems to have the most variation in customer service behavior. It feels like every other store is a dump for McDonald's rejects.
I now go to Jack in the Box or Wendy's for burgers and the Baskin Robins next door to the crappy DQ for ice cream. Prices are about the same and tastes better.

Did you read my first sentence which linked to a previous post I made about off DQ advertising? That's what they're still at.
