    I am appalled how Wendy's wants their company to be represented by such horrible management. I went to drive through and my order was wrong. The line was too long so I went inside around 6pm and the manger pulled her eyes at me and said " you didn't order it " when I did in fact ask at the drive-through speaker for the item. While waiting, the manger decided it was appropriate to yell at an employee when she could of been much nicer about it and dune that in private. Then the manger started talking bad about that empyee to other employees. Is this how Wendy's wants to be representated ? She handed me the rest of my food and I asked kindly for her name and I was informed her name was Riviera. She even called me pet names like " sweety, sweetheart, and honey,"and it was extremely rude. I didn't like the pet names. I would of been okay with "ma'am."

    Rivera is a work bully and makes hostility in the workplace and inappropriate with the way, she speaks to minors constantly yelling at them. I’ve been in there and seen it firsthand. No one deserves to be treated like that.

    I would really like to be nice. I was a walk in. I passed an employee cleaning the tables. At the counter I waited a real two minutes. Fry station attendant ducked back an examined his phone. After I called for service, they yelled a couple of times to the manager. The manager came out and told the cleaner to serve the counter. They were not prepared to ring up my order and required the manager. All the while, I am watching through the service door some other employee narrate this scene on their phone. Being served at all took at least five minutes as the only customer. Like a scene from a Jackass movie.
