At Popeyes they ask you to back up for a second then pull back up.

Because what you ordered is cooking/has to be cooked.

There’s a sensor at the window that tracks the time a car sits there. They like to average a certain amount of time. They like to achieve their goal to have a car sitting at the window for a certain average time.



you give them too much credit.

They time how long a car sits at the window so to counter this tool for management to measure productivity and competency the employees scam the system by asking you to pull up so they don't get in trouble.

It was a sad say when they started making dedicated parking spots for this. It's like they plan on sucking.

Went there yesterday for the wife and kid. Was asked to pull forward. There were already three cars up there waiting. I pull forward and while I'm waiting the manager brings food to a car that was pulled into a parking spot. So there were FIVE cars pulled up waiting for food. Ridiculous. But just like a trained sheep I'm sure I'll be back.
