Alright. There’s this girl at the McDonald’s Drive Thru that I have taking a liking to. So what is the best method of doing this? Have you ever done it? Did it work? Was it weird? Thanks for any input.
Pull up in your Porsche 911/993 Carerra. Flash your gold Rolex Daytona. Peel off you’re few dollars from a large roll of 20s and 100s. Ask when she gets off of work.
Of course I wouldn’t be interested in a woman who would be impressed by these things, and I haven’t tried it myself; but it works in the movies.
At the drive thru squawk-box, ask her is she’d like to see the initmate version of “would you like to supersize that?”
Ask her if she wants to come home and try your special sauce.
She won’t probably appreciate anything too saycy or bawdy. Trying to be really witty will probably have a negative impression, too.
Face it, if you think she’s hot someone else has noticed it too. Even if she isn’t there has been tens or hundred guys panting at her already.
So you have to keep it simple, won’t you? Place your order and finish with “…coke and your homenumber, please.”. You have to be cool and really confident for that to work.
Another way would be to go over to her and honestly explain the situation, how you think she looks good and you’d like to get to know her. That might just work better than any of the ultra-cool and worn lines you/we might come up with.
And you have to make sure the right girl is taking your order.
I worked at a fast food restaurant for a couple of years while in high school. I was hit on more times then you can imagine. Anyone who came right out and asked me out was politely brushed off beacuse I was busy working. Only a few imaginative ones ever caught my attention.
One man filled out the comment card on his table telling me that I was very pretty and he wanted to take me out to dinner. Another man sent me flowers (a very small bouquet, nothing expensive) with a note telling me that he had not been able to stop thinking about me since he had driven though the drive-thru a week before. My favorite was a man who use to fold all his money in origami shapes before giving it to me. He came by a couple of times a week and I could tell he was flirting with me. Finally he wrote a note asking for my phone number on a bill folded like a ring. It was so cute because he was obviously very shy and had been working up to it for awhile.
Here are a few things that probably won’t work. Don’t give her a $20 tip and suggest she “buy something pretty”. Don’t make rude comments about “breasts” while she is filling your order. (I worked at a fast food chicken place.) Don’t wait by her car till she gets off work. (She might call the police) And, never visit every night for a week and stare at her for an hour while you eat.
I’m not exactly sure anything would work. I get so many guys hitting on me in the drive thru, it’s hard to distinguish the ones who are really intrested from the ones who want free food. On Friday nights, when the drunks come out, the numbers double. In keeping with that, I could never date anyone who approached me in DT, because I tend to brush off anyone who flirts with a smile and a “thanks, have a good night.” I don’t give them a second thought. If it were to work though, I’d try to make sure she knows that you’re one of the genuine ones, not just another punk looking for fries.
Just my opinion 
asking out a girl in any customer service job is difficult because shes trapped into being polite and being unable to walk away. so dont be a chickenshit, make srue that whatever you try gives her an easy out if shes not comfortable, and originality counts for so big points, shes seen hundreds if not thousands of guys flirting with her. if you can get her to remember you your on your way.
I actually dated a guy I met through the DT at McDonald’s when I was working there before college. (It was a bad experience, but don’t let that deter you! :)) He came in every day for about 2 weeks, just stopping on his way to work, and we’d started up a conversation. One afternoon, he asked me for my number and I gave it to him. The guy ended up being a jerk later, but I’d still say that going through drive thru regularly (but not too regularly… don’t stop in every hour!) and starting up a friendly conversation would be a good start. I’ll agree with Critical1, though, and make sure you give her an easy out. More often than not, she may come up with a non-existant boyfriend/husband. (Hey, it always worked for me!!! :D)
I’ll ask my daughter tonight when she gets off work, and get back to you.
What kind of car are you driving?
Write her a short note explaining yourself with your phone number on it. That why she wont feel pushed into making a decision. If she is interested, she’ll call you.
Oops I’ve done it again! No matter how many times I proof read, a typo pops up. And I cant get the damn edit button on the SDMB to work. Anyways I meant… “That way she wont feel pushed into making a decision.” Sorry 
[hijack] DDG, how’s your daughter liking mickey d’s? [/hijack]
Me, too. I’ve worn diamond rings on my left ring finger for years now. The one I wore while a McEmployee was a birthday present. I must’ve flashed that ring a dozen times to discourage the creepy older men who would hit on me while I worked.
What made them creepy was their approach: “Heh heh heh… you’re pretty!” “So… how old are you?” “You get boyfriend?” “What time do you get off work?” <wink wink> It was as though they thought the crudest line would win me over.
Anyway, after a handful of regular visits, and pleasant and mildly flirty exchanges, you’ll likely be at or near the top of her Secret Favorite Customers list. If all systems are go, offer your number and mention a possible get-together one day. Friendly, casual, no pressure… I think that’s what will work best. Good luck to you.
