A McDonald Experience

May9th
2012
4 Comments Written by Tope

A couple of my friends and I did a quick run out of the conference room, into the van and down the road to get a bite to eat. We sighted it, parked and then burst into the McDonald and we were famished. By my mental calculation, we had to reel off our order, pay up, do a bit of waiting, actually get our meals and then gulp it down.

So here goes nothing. I cannot explain and I still don’t know how it happened, but somehow I was singled out and I had to take the orders. In three seconds, tension had been built. I felt my snapping vibrations everywhere. Everyone seemed to want a different meal a second after they have already placed an initial order. My entire system was jerking from lack of food and irritation. After a couple of minutes, I felt everyone was satisfied, but I think my mind told me “someone is still coming to step on those nerves so brace yourself.”

I was about to sink into my seat and get some rest when my number was called. I jumped up and went to the counter. Cross checked everything and began calling the owners of the meal. While I was doing that, I heard one of my friends order me to go get a drink. I think I was about to give her a knockout punch, when someone else offered to do it. Thank goodness the sharing session was finally over; the only problem was that I had no food. This was the tip of the iceberg. I was raving mad. I was trying to take it all in, so I decided to go into the van and seat down quietly and concentrate on everything but the worms in my stomach crying out for food. I sat for a couple of minutes and then my friends started coming into the van. One of them made the mistake of offering me food. I retorted, so she ignored me.

RINGGGGGG, a bell went off in my head…yes, I had an epiphany; I want a replica of this type of hunger when it comes to achieving my dreams and goals. I want to be irritated by my laziness, build up tension when I notice the exponential rate of procrastination in my life and retort at people who intend to steal my dreams. If I can whip up this amount of energy just for a meal, think about what I can achieve if I channel it into making money.

I have come to the frighten conclusion that I want a McDonald experience every second of the day because it will drive me to my expected end.

Ermmm, not meaning to be funny or anything, but all this memories came back to me while I was taking  a _ _ _ _ (The opposite of Pee)

On a lighter note, it is good to be back home and at my workstation where sleep rules the roost. I love you guys…Happy new month…yeah yeah, it is late, but better late than never. Have a great week people!

    Very beautiful Sal, I can totally relate with this. I very much need this McDonald’s experience to bring in the Benjamins.

    Nice one really loved the way you connected what happened to achieving your dream. Experiences and situations we go through most times there is a very valuable lesson to be gotten from it…once again nice one
