The lady at the drive thru is so rude. Rolling her eyes and slamming our drinks down. Twice I’ve been to the location and she’s been that way.. I’ll no longer go to this Wendy’s

Walked in today after a local snow storm. Drive thru backed up, three people waiting on food at counter. I patiently waited deciding what I wanted. Then out from the drive thru the manager(red head female) stayed loudly, “this is why we are open, these people will not stay home”!. I said fine I’ll go somewhere else. This is the second time I have had attitude projected from the manager. She does not need to be in management. Will not be back!

I ate the nuggets there Friday for my lunch break at work and woke up with horrible food poisoning Saturday and am still suffering today I have no way to get definite proof by testing the food because i ate it all but that is pretty much all i ate Friday afternoon and the only thing that could have made me sick sanitation and work ethic there needs to really be put in check and i will never eat there again
